Top 70 Week 4 Wide Receiver Rankings + Tiers

Carnell Tate is ranked at WR50 in Mattek's current wide receiver rankings.

Chris Godwin is ranked down at WR45 due to poor volume and concerns regarding the offensive outlook while playing with Jayden Daniels.

Ranked as WR13, Christian Watson is a clear start, but Mattek expects his touchdown rate to regress, narrowing the gap between him and Matthew Golden in expected fantasy points.

Mattek is actively monitoring Courtland Sutton's usage and performance. He is currently ranked at 53, with Mattek highlighting his low production of 5.4 points per game.

Despite a 33% target share, Mattek remains skeptical of DJ Moore's efficiency and talent, though he acknowledges Moore remains a top option in a weak Buffalo wide receiver room due to Josh Allen's target volume.

Davante Adams is a clear start with high target potential, as the absence of Terence Ferguson leaves him with little competition for targets in the Rams' passing game.

Deebo Samuel is ranked as a clear starter with expected role growth due to Mike Evans' absence; he is projected for roughly 5.5 targets and two rushing attempts with red zone involvement.

Denzel Boston is ranked at WR41 following a strong performance of 44 yards on 89 snaps.

DeVonta Smith's injury status is the primary reason for the positive adjustment to Mai Lemon's fantasy ranking.

Mattek admits his previous ranking of DK Metcalf at WR33 was too high following the Thursday night game.

Dontayvion Wicks is moved up to WR37 as a primary beneficiary of DeVonta Smith's injury, favored over other options due to his full-time role and downfield usage.

Mattek is actively monitoring Evan Engram's usage and performance as part of his weekly evaluation of the offense.

Garrett Wilson is ranked as the WR11 for the week, with Mattek projecting a massive 35-37% target share due to the absences of Adonai Mitchell and Breece Hall.

Ranked as WR14, George Pickens is a breakout candidate; despite a slow start, his underlying metrics, including 2.10+ yards per route run, suggest an explosion week is imminent.

Jakobi Meyers is ranked at WR35 for his matchup against the Bengals, coming off a strong eight-target, 64-yard performance.

Jameson Williams is ranked as a top 24 wide receiver. Mattek notes his volume is fine, with all week three targets being first-read targets, and expects him to benefit from a favorable matchup against a reserve Panthers secondary. The Lions coaching staff is intentionally scheming to integrate Williams into the offense to reach their full potential.

Ranked as WR16, Jaylen Waddle is a high-upside play for the week, with Mattek betting on his role as the primary playmaker in a high-scoring game environment against the 49ers. Mattek views him as the primary engine of the offense and remains confident in betting on his continued production.

Johnny Wilson is noted for having over half his targets behind the line of scrimmage, making him a less valuable fantasy option than Dontayvion Wicks despite potential target volume.

Ranked at WR25, Addison is a clear start with Justin Jefferson expected to miss time due to an ankle injury. He faces a favorable matchup against the Dolphins' weak secondary and is expected to see a volume spike, as it is difficult to imagine Jauan Jennings or T.J. Hockenson significantly impacting the passing game.

Josh Downs is ranked as the WR18 and is considered a top buy-low/buy-high target. He is the clear primary option for the Colts, showing elite film traits and increasing usage in intermediate and deep routes with Alec Pierce out. He has a solid weekly floor of 10 points and a favorable matchup against the worst pass defense in the NFL.

Khalif Raymond is ranked at WR48; Puka Nakua is highly skeptical of his production sustainability, calling his recent performance an anomaly and stating he will not start him in any leagues. Mattek further notes that historical production comps for players with his age and profile are non-existent, suggesting he has never been a viable fantasy asset.

Keenan Allen is ranked at WR38, with Mattek noting he projects very well this week against a weak defense. He is also used as a benchmark for Trey Harris's potential ranking.

Ladd McConkey is dealing with a foot injury and has a 50/50 chance of playing. Mattek has moved him down in his rankings due to the injury risk and a difficult matchup, though he remains a start if active.

Ranked at WR23, Burden is a confident start coming off an 11-target game. Mattek dismisses skepticism regarding his season, noting his production is comparable to players like DJ Moore and George Pickens, though Puka Nakua questions if Khalif Raymond's presence will limit his production.

Puka Nakua is struggling to rank Malik Nabers highly due to poor production, bad quarterback play, and ongoing concerns regarding his knee and shoulder injuries.

Mattek is high on Malik Washington, ranking him at 51 following a strong volume performance against Kansas City (10 targets, 5 receptions, 56 yards, 2 rushes). He notes potential for a 12-touch-per-game role despite a tough upcoming matchup against Minnesota.

Matthew Golden is currently averaging 15.4 points per game and is ranked as the WR17 by Mattek.

Mattek moved Michael Wilson up to WR29 following his best game of the season, noting he is clearly a starting-caliber fantasy receiver despite poor yards per route run metrics and a projected low-volume game environment.

Nico Collins is a clear start against the Dallas Cowboys as he returns from a hamstring injury, though Mattek has lowered his rest-of-season ranking due to recurring hamstring issues and the Texans' poor offensive performance.

Pat Bryant is ranked at WR39, with Mattek asserting he is significantly better than Courtland Sutton. He is used as a benchmark for Trey Harris's potential ranking.

Mattek moved Puka Nacua from the S tier to the A tier due to potential route limitations, but maintains that he is a must-start in any league where he is rostered.

Quentin Johnston is utilized as a target in the offense alongside Trey Harris and remains a deep-bench or pinch-start option who maintains touchdown potential.

Ranked at WR24, Rice is a projectable start against the Raiders. While he may not return third-round value, he is trending upward in his recovery from a knee injury and remains involved in the Chiefs' schemed-up passing plays.

Rashod Bateman is ranked at WR40, with his fantasy value heavily dependent on scoring a touchdown in a low-volume passing environment.

Mattek labels Rome Odunze a "first ballot never been good hall of famer" and suggests Khalif Raymond is likely to push him to the sidelines, with Puka Nakua questioning if Raymond's presence will limit his production.

Romeo Doubs is currently ranked at WR47 in the latest fantasy rankings.

Stefon Diggs is ranked as a fantasy starter at WR26 against the Colts; he has been a very solid fantasy asset throughout the season despite a difficult matchup against Seattle in the previous week.

Terry McLaurin is currently ranked as the WR32 in the weekly rankings.

Tetairoa McMillan has a favorable matchup against the Detroit Lions, but he struggles to convert volume into targets and lacks the explosive athleticism required to generate high-ceiling fantasy games, making him overly reliant on extreme volume.

Trey Harris is currently ranked WR44 but is a candidate to move into the 30s if Ladd McConkey misses time; he has earned borderline flex consideration due to his target share.

Ranked at WR34, Worthy is monitored for volume concerns; while he maintains an 85% snap share and 20% target share with Patrick Mahomes, Mattek will downgrade him if he has another bad volume week.
