Fantasy Football Week 4 Start 'Em Sit 'Em WRs feat. Chris Godwin, Stefon Diggs, Michael Pittman Jr.

Week 4 of the 2024 fantasy football season has arrived and it's time for managers to start finalizing their lineups. Wide receivers offer more legitimate options than any other position, but it's always important to start the right ones. Failing to optimize lineups can result in losing, so here are the best wide receivers to target and avoid this week.

Capitalizing on the best situations is one way to get the most out of a fantasy football lineup each week. Determining which players to target is based on many different factors, including their recent individual performances and direct weekly matchups.

Chris Godwin has emerged as one of the best fantasy football wide receivers to use in Week 4. He is off to an excellent start this year, ranking as the overall WR4 through three weeks. He has also scored a touchdown in all three of his games so far and gets a favorable matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles' shaky pass defense.

Stefon Diggs is another solid wide receiver to target this week as his role with the Houston Texans is already growing. He has increased his receiving yardage and snap percentage in each of his games this year while breaking out for season-highs of 10 receptions on 12 targets for 94 yards last week. The Jacksonville Jaguars' defense was also torched last week, giving Diggs a favorable matchup.

Here's who joins them as the best wide receivers to target in Week 4:

Knowing who to fade in fantasy football each week is just as important as determining which players to target. Michael Pittman Jr. tops the list of wide receivers to avoid in Week 4. He currently ranks as just the WR74 through his first three games this year and draws a tough matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers' stingy defense.

Christian Watson is another player to fade this week after his disappointing start to the 2024 season. He has recorded just five receptions for 80 yards so far as he has struggled to find a consistent role in a relatively crowded offense. He profiles as a bench stash until he can prove to be a more reliable option.

Here's which other wide receivers should be avoided this week:

Must Sits

• Michael Pittman Jr.
• Christian Watson
• Tyler Lockett
• Jerry Jeudy
• Jakobi Meyers
• Keon Coleman
• Romeo Doubs
• Jahan Dotson
