As we approach Week 4 of the fantasy football season, managers need to be more selective about who they add to their rosters.

This week, several standout performances from Week 3 players have reshaped the landscape. Let's take a look at some of the top names to consider as you navigate your waiver wire.

Quarterbacks to consider in Week 4

If you're looking for a quarterback, Lamar Jackson (Baltimore Ravens) should be on your radar.

After a strong Week 3 performance, Jackson faces a tough matchup against Buffalo in Week 4, but his dual-threat abilities keep him as a top fantasy option.

Josh Allen (Buffalo Bills) leads the QB rankings this week, heading into a matchup against Baltimore.

His dynamic playstyle, combined with a defense that might give him opportunities, makes him a must-start.

Top 10 Quarterbacks (4-point ing TD scoring)

  1. Josh Allen (BUF) - at BAL
  2. Kyler Murray (ARI) - vs. WAS
  3. Lamar Jackson (BAL) - vs. BUF
  4. Jalen Hurts (PHI) - at TB
  5. C.J. Stroud (HOU) - vs. JAC
  6. Patrick Mahomes II (KC) - at LAC
  7. Joe Burrow (CIN) - at CAR
  8. Dak Prescott (DAL) - at NYG
  9. Jayden Daniels (WAS) - at ARI
  10. Jordan Love (GB) - vs. MIN

Running Backs on the Rise for Week 4

Week 3 saw some fantastic running back performances.

Kyren Williams (Los Angeles Rams) continues to prove his worth as a reliable fantasy option, and he's facing a favorable matchup against the Chicago Bears in Week 4.

Another player to target is Jordan Mason (San Francisco 49ers), who tops the Week 4 running back rankings with a matchup against the New England Patriots.

If you're looking for a solid waiver addition, Williams is rostered in less than 50% of leagues and should be available in many.

A name worth jumping on in deeper leagues is De'Von Achane (Miami Dolphins), who is ranked seventh for the week.

Top 10 Running Backs (PPR scoring)

  1. Jordan Mason (SF) - vs. NE
  2. Saquon Barkley (PHI) - at TB
  3. Alvin Kamara (NO) - at ATL
  4. Bijan Robinson (ATL) - vs. NO
  5. Jonathan Taylor (IND) - vs. PIT
  6. Breece Hall (NYJ) - vs. DEN
  7. De'Von Achane (MIA) - vs. TEN
  8. Jahmyr Gibbs (DET) - vs. SEA
  9. Kyren Wililams (LAR) - vs. CHI
  10. James Cook (BUF) - at BAL

Wide receiver watch list for Week 4

At wide receiver, CeeDee Lamb (Dallas Cowboys) takes the top spot in Week 4's rankings as he faces the Baltimore Ravens.

Lamb has been a consistent performer, and this matchup should allow him to put up WR1 numbers once again.

If you're looking for a waiver wire option, Nico Collins (Houston Texans) is worth considering.

Rostered in fewer than 50% of leagues, Collins has shown flashes of brilliance and faces Jacksonville this week, which could give him a good chance to shine.

  1. CeeDee Lamb (DAL) - vs. BAL
