In the 14 games that T.J. Hockenson has played without Justin Jefferson, he's averaged 5.4-66-0.43 (8.0). Kyler has targeted Hockenson on 5-of-29 targeted pass attempts (17.2%). Jordan Addison has averaged 5.0-62-0.57 (7.6) in the 7 games he's played without JJ. 5-90-1 (9) after JJ left early.

4. TE: Darren Waller, Panthers (vs. DET) Snap share: W1 - 35% W2 - 44% W3 - 51% Detroit is allowing 9.7 catches, 117 yards, and 2.0 TDs per game to TEs. 👀
130
John Paulsen @4for4-john.bsky.social · 30/09/2026
3. WR: Keenan Allen, Colts (@ WAS) With Alec Pierce out last week, his snap share spiked to 73%. Allen 6-63-1 (9) Washington is giving up 15.3 catches, 191 yards, and 2.0 TDs per game to WRs. 80th-percentile route grade last year, still dangerous at 34.

John Paulsen @4for4-john.bsky.social · 30/09/2026
2. RB: Braelon Allen, Jets (@ CHI) Breece Hall left Week 3 with a thigh issue and is likely to miss at least 1 week. That puts Allen in the lead role, with Isaiah Davis as the change-of-pace back. A lead role is worth a flex/RB2 start in most formats.

John Paulsen @4for4-john.bsky.social · 30/09/2026
1. QB: Bryce Young, Panthers (vs. DET) Detroit is allowing 326 passing yards and 3.0 passing TDs per game to QBs. Young just threw 48 times for 291 yards and a score against Cleveland, and I think the volume will be there again.

Detroit is getting fleeced by opposing QBs and TEs. 2 of my 4 Week 4 fantasy football Sneaky Starts are Panthers, one at each position:

6. Quentin Johnston is still playing more snaps (87%), but in W3 Tre' Harris led LAC in targets (7), catches (6), and yards (76) on 58% of the snaps. He's second on the team in catches (10), and yards (149). Stash him/trade for him if you can; might be something there.

John Paulsen @4for4-john.bsky.social · 30/09/2026
5. With Caleb Douglas out: Malik Washington 5-56 (10), 86% snaps Chris Bell 4-67 (7), 71% snaps Greg Dulcich 5-55 (7) Bell is trending up.

John Paulsen @4for4-john.bsky.social · 30/09/2026
4. With Alec Pierce out: Downs 5-77 (11) Warren 9-55 (10) Allen 6-63-1 (9) Josh Downs delivered as a Sneaky Start. Keenan Allen spiked to a 73% snap share and could be usable on a weekly basis. 👴

John Paulsen @4for4-john.bsky.social · 30/09/2026
3. Zay Flowers played through a hamstring, which typically cuts production 18%, per our Injury Index. On a 20- to 30-snap count, that put his projection at 9.7 half-PPR points. He played 21 snaps and sat at exactly 9.7 🎯 ...until Lamar Jackson found him for 27 yards on the last play.
120
John Paulsen @4for4-john.bsky.social · 30/09/2026
George Kittle snap share: W1 - 46% W2 - 48% W3 - 85% Kittle 6-82-2 (7) after 4-80-1 (4) Shaping up as maybe the best middle-round TE value, though Travis Kelce and Dalton Kincaid will have something to say about that.

John Paulsen @4for4-john.bsky.social · 30/09/2026
2. My favorite Strategery late-round QB, Brock Purdy, added another 297/4 plus 34 rushing yards. He's the QB2 on the season at 27.0 points per game. 😎

John Paulsen @4for4-john.bsky.social · 30/09/2026
1. Jaxon Smith-Njigba has 90.6 half-PPR points through 3 weeks. That's a mind-boggling 153-2,295-34 pace. Paces don't hold. But... 🤯

John Paulsen @4for4-john.bsky.social · 30/09/2026
A TE whose snaps nearly doubled. A Charger worth stashing. A hamstring projection that hit to the decimal... until the last play. 6 key stats from Week 3 fantasy football, straight from Thinking Outside the Box, exclusive to the 4for4 Discord 👇️

Most managers are going to bid on Gordon because he got the work in Week 3, but Wright was out with an injury and is considered day-to-day. He's listed as Achane's backup on MIA's unofficial depth chart.

John Paulsen @4for4-john.bsky.social · 29/09/2026
While most of Jaylen Wright's numbers aren't good, they are almost universally better than Gordon's. Wright has an above-average YAC/att (69th percentile) and YAC/rec (60th percentile), while Gordon's lone good metric is BrkTkl/touch (85th-percentile).

John Paulsen @4for4-john.bsky.social · 29/09/2026
With De'Von Achane's season-ending ACL injury, many people are wondering about Jaylen Wright vs. Ollie Gordon. Given the state of the MIA offense, the answer is probably neither, because both players will be sharing a bad role, but if I had to choose--I'd pick Wright as my waiver wire add.

I added Zay Flowers to the rankings, assuming an 18% drop in production per our Injury Index study. Lands around WR27. Great matchup. Still like Rashod Bateman and Mark Andrews, though the ceilings are lower with Flowers available. Snap count still possible. www.4for4.com/fantasy-foot...

4. TE Oronde Gadsden, LAC vs. BUF David Njoku (fibula) and Charlie Kolar (forearm) are out. The seas have parted. His snap rate went from 18% in Week 1 to 44% in Week 2 and should spike further. From Week 6 on last year: 3.4-49-0.25 on 4.8 targets per game.

John Paulsen @4for4-john.bsky.social · 25/09/2026
3. WR Deebo Samuel, SF vs. ARI Demarcus Robinson (high ankle) is out. Mike Evans (hip) is questionable. Samuel 9-79-1 (11) through 2 weeks, plus 2 carries for 16 yards. He's playing with one of the most efficient QBs in the league.
130
John Paulsen @4for4-john.bsky.social · 25/09/2026
2. RB David Montgomery, HOU at IND Week 1: 20-60-2 rushing, 3-19-1 receiving, all 5 of Houston's red zone carries Week 2: 6 carries for 10 yards in a 20-6 loss Indy has allowed 1,029 yards through 2 games, 354 on the ground. Monty should produce.

John Paulsen @4for4-john.bsky.social · 25/09/2026
1. QB Tyler Shough, NO vs. LV He leads the NFL in completions (62) and passing yards (662) through 2 weeks. Week 1: 410 yards Week 2: 252/1, plus 23 rushing yards and the game-winning sneak He's my QB7 this week.

9. Bhayshul Tuten is dominating the JAX backfield right now. Through 2 games: 28 carries and 3 catches for 150 total yards. It's not massive usage, but in a good offense, he should deliver low-end RB2 production with that workload.
140
John Paulsen @4for4-john.bsky.social · 22/09/2026
8. D'Andre Swift has 40 touches through 2 games. 1,981 total yard pace. Paces don't always hold, but the workload is very real.
120
John Paulsen @4for4-john.bsky.social · 22/09/2026
7. Adonai Mitchell was a fun pick in the final rounds. Mitchell 9-123 (14) through 2 weeks That's a 1,046-yard pace. Talented real-world WR2, had his moments last year, slight QB upgrade, good camp buzz. It's all happening.
120
John Paulsen @4for4-john.bsky.social · 22/09/2026
6. Rashod Bateman came in uncomfortably high when I first ran Week 2 rankings without Zay Flowers. So I moved him down. Turns out I should have left him as a WR3. Bateman 7-88-1 (9)
120
John Paulsen @4for4-john.bsky.social · 22/09/2026
5. I'm still confident in Chris Godwin, but I'm not loving 3 targets. Godwin 3-46 (3) + a 12-yard run He's averaging 2.38 YPRR from the slot but has run just 34 of 69 routes there. In 2024, when he was the overall WR4 before his injury, it was 64%. That has to go up.
110
John Paulsen @4for4-john.bsky.social · 22/09/2026
4. Priority add for anyone with TE issues: Oronde Gadsden. David Njoku (fibula) and Charlie Kolar (forearm) are both going on IR and will miss 4 games. The Chargers have to play Gadsden now. From Week 6 on last season, he averaged 3.4-49-0.25 on 4.8 targets per game.
110
John Paulsen @4for4-john.bsky.social · 22/09/2026
3. Tucker Kraft played 98% of the snaps. He ran 33 routes while Watson and Golden ran 35. They did NOT keep him in to block even though the GB OL is predictably bad. The production will come, and the Packers need it desperately.
110
John Paulsen @4for4-john.bsky.social · 22/09/2026
2. Mark Andrews has played 71% of the snaps this season after averaging 62% last year. He's playing at an 85-833 pace. The TDs should eventually come.
110
John Paulsen @4for4-john.bsky.social · 22/09/2026
1. Dalton Kincaid is finally having a breakout season. Kincaid 7-95-1 (8) The snaps are the story: 69% this year vs. 37% last year and 57% the year before. His role finally matches his talent.

9. Green Bay's receiver room already has a clear pecking order after 1 week. Watson 6-147-2 (8) Golden 6-95 (12) Reed 3-20 (7) Kraft 3-65 (6) still on a snap count Jordan Love threw for 387/2 behind an OL that ranked near the bottom of the league in spending this offseason.
