Week 4 turned out to be a great week to stream a quarterback and a bad week to start your stud running back, so let's make the most of who's available on the waiver wire.
Jared Goff and Geno Smith lit up the fantasy scoreboard, while RBs Jonathan Taylor, Javonte Williams, and Cordarrelle Patterson all left with injuries. Williams has a torn ACL, it is feared Taylor has a high-ankle sprain that will cause him to miss multiple weeks, and Patterson is on IR with a knee injury.
It's worth asking the question: Was this the season to try the zero-RB draft strategy? But that's a much longer article…
Those who handcuffed Javonte Williams with Melvin Gordon or Jonathan Taylor with Nyheim Hines are in good shape, while those who are missing Patterson for the next few weeks have a bigger puzzle to solve. Running back depth is scarce this season, but a few players are listed below to consider.
Many of you will also be looking to stream a quarterback to replace Tua Tagovailoa as we monitor his health in the coming days and weeks.
The Detroit Lions, like the Jacksonville Jaguars and Washington Commanders, continue to provide us with a ton of fantasy value on the waiver wire.
Without further ado, let's go to the wire!
