Under The Radar Players Set to Shock the World in Week 4

Ron Stewart ranks Brian Robinson Jr. as the RB23, three spots higher than consensus, projecting 15+ carries and a touchdown against the Colts. The matchup is favorable as the Colts allow 5.49 yards per carry on outside zone runs (3rd highest rate), and the Commanders lead the NFL in zone rush rate (66.7%). Robinson is coming off a career-high 20 touches against the Seahawks and remains a strong play, though he lacks the receiving volume of backs like Rachaad White.

Darren Waller is the recommended tight end streamer of the week due to a favorable matchup against Detroit, which allows the most fantasy points to the position. He is widely available in roughly 75% of ESPN leagues and is seeing significant route volume.

Ron Stewart highlights George Pickens as a preferred trade target and a primary receiving option who may draw significant defensive attention, potentially opening up opportunities for teammates.

Ron Stewart ranks Jauan Jennings as WR58 (19 spots ahead of consensus) and is considering moving him up further following Justin Jefferson's injury. Jennings ran a route on 84% of dropbacks after Jefferson left the game last week and led the Vikings in slot percentage. With the Dolphins' defense susceptible to slot receivers, Jennings is a strong candidate for a 20+ PPR point performance.

Ron Stewart ranks Mike Washington as RB39 and suggests he is a viable start for those desperate at RB2, noting he is available in nearly 80% of leagues. Washington excels in man-gap runs, which the Chiefs' defense struggles to defend (4th worst rate in the NFL). He leads Ashen Genty in efficiency metrics, including yards per carry (6.8), explosive run rate, and rushing yards over expected. He is a boom-bust play with touchdown upside, best suited for half-PPR or standard leagues.

Ron Stewart notes that the Texans' passing game should be bolstered by the return of Nico Collins, which will help the team keep up through the air.

Ron Stewart notes that Rachaad White maintains a distinct role with higher target volume out of the backfield compared to players like Brian Robinson Jr.
