OwnersBox NFL DFS Lineup Picks for Week 4 - Daily Fantasy Football

Matt Terelle highlights the top OwnersBox NFL DFS lineup picks for Week 4 of the 2020 season, and some value sleepers for your daily fantasy football rosters.

Hey there RotoBallers! If you haven't had a chance to check out the weekly fantasy offerings over at OwnersBox, now is the time! OwnersBox is a new weekly fantasy platform that offers plenty of game setups to fulfill your desire to draft throughout the season! Over at OwnersBox,  you can participate in snake drafts and select 1, 2, 3, or 4-week tournament-style bracket contests.

In this article, I will be providing you with my weekly fantasy football lineup picks on OwnersBox for contests that start in Week 4. I will pick out two players at each position: a short-term option (for one-week drafts) and a long-term option (for drafts lasting between two and four weeks). With the Steelers/Titans Week 4 game getting postponed due to positive COVID-19 tests on the Titans, you are obviously going to want to avoid both teams for Week 4. I am also recommending avoiding drafting any Titans for long-term contests as we simply don't know if there will be more positive tests or when they will be able to play again.

Be sure to also check out our other great NFL DFS articles and NFL DFS tools to help you win big no matter what your preferred weekly fantasy platform happens to be. If you sign up for OwnersBox this week, you'll get $25 free in OwnersBucks, which can be redeemed to play in real money games.

OwnersBox Quarterbacks

One-Week Drafts:

Russell Wilson (Seattle Seahawks) @MIA

Wilson has been absolutely dominant through three weeks, throwing 14 touchdowns and just one interception. He is bound to cool off eventually but the Dolphins aren't the team that is going to do it. Miami's pass defense ranks 25th in DVOA this season while their offense has been frisky enough to turn this game into an under-the-radar shootout. Seattle's starting running back Chris Carson is also banged up, which could convince the team to throw more frequently than usual. In a game with a 53.5-point over/under, Wilson should be the first or second quarterback off the board in one-week drafts.

Also consider: Lamar Jackson (Baltimore Ravens) @WAS

Two-to-Four-Week Drafts:

Lamar Jackson (Baltimore Ravens) @WAS, vs. CIN, vs. PHI, @PIT

Jackson is off to a slow start (by his normally high standards) but his schedule opens up considerably over the next month. He will take on Washington in Week 4 in what qualifies as a plus matchup for the Ravens. Washington has a fearsome defensive line but the additional pressure could just force Jackson to run more frequently, which is a good thing for fantasy gamers who roster him. When he doesn't run, he will take aim at a Washington secondary that is definitely beatable and is allowing the 12th-most fantasy points per game to the QB position. A Week 5 matchup against the Bengals shouldn't give Jackson much trouble while the Eagles in Week 6 still can't stop anyone through the air despite adding Darius Slay, ranking 23rd in pass defense DVOA according to Football Outsiders. The only tough defense in this four-game stretch is Pittsburgh in Week 7.

Also consider: Dak Prescott (Dallas Cowboys) vs. CLE, vs. NYG, vs. ARI, @WAS

OwnersBox Running Backs

One-Week Drafts:

Alvin Kamara (New Orleans Saints) @DET 

Kamara rewarded his fantasy drafts on Sunday night, popping off for 43 points on OwnersBox, thanks to a ridiculous 13-catch, 139-yard, two-touchdown outing against the Packers. He finds himself in another excellent situation in Week 4 as he will face a Detroit defense that is allowing the sixth-most fantasy points per game to running backs. While the news was more positive earlier in the week, it wouldn't be a surprise to see Michael Thomas sit out another week, which just raises Kamara's ceiling that much more.

Also consider: Dalvin Cook (Minnesota Vikings) @HOU

Two-to-Four-Week Drafts:

Ezekiel Elliott (Dallas Cowboys) - vs. CLE, vs. NYG, vs. ARI, @WAS

Elliott's Week 4 home matchup with the Browns should be a shootout, ensuring that his team will be in the red zone often and theoretically giving Zeke several shots at scoring. The Giants in Week 5 are fresh off allowing San Francisco to notch three rushing touchdowns and New York doesn't possess an offense that is equipped to keep up with Dallas on the scoreboard. Expect the Cowboys to lean on Elliott to take the air out of the ball in the second half. Week 6's matchup with the Cardinals should be another shootout as Arizona does have an offense that can keep up with Dallas. Washington's defense is strong against the pass and weaker against the run, which should funnel additional work onto Zeke's plate.

Also consider: Todd Gurley (Atlanta Falcons) - @GB, vs. CAR, @MIN, vs. DET

OwnersBox Wide Receivers

One-Week Drafts:

Calvin Ridley (Atlanta Falcons) @GB

Has Ridley overtaken Julio Jones as the alpha receiver in Atlanta? While it may be too early to proclaim this, Ridley has taken a massive step forward this season. He has 21 catches for 349 yards and four TDs through three games and gets to go against a leaky Green Bay pass defense in Week 4. Green Bay's secondary ranks 20th in pass defense DVOA. Just be sure to monitor the injury reports as Ridley missed Thursday's practice with an ankle injury. His participation on Friday will be a good indication of his status for the weekend. Julio Jones is a nice pivot off Ridley is the latter is looking unlikely to play. Jones missed last week's game with a hamstring issue but got in a limited session on Thursday and is trending up.

Also consider: DeAndre Hopkins (Arizona Cardinals) @CAR

Two-to-Four-Week Drafts:

DeAndre Hopkins (Arizona Cardinals) @CAR, @NYJ, @DAL, vs. SEA

What a fantastic four-game stretch for Nuk. Hopkins will do battle with a Carolina pass defense that ranks 28th in DVOA in Week 4 and then takes on a Jets team that is probably the worst in the league in Week 4. New York has the ultimate pass-funnel defense as they rank 31st in DVOA against the pass and third against the run. Hopkins will face Dallas in Week 6 in what is likely to be a high-scoring shootout and finishes up this fantastic stretch with a leaky Seattle secondary that is allowing more fantasy points per game to wide receivers than any team in the NFL.

Also consider: DeVante Parker (Miami Dolphins) vs. SEA, @SF, @DEN, vs. LAC

OwnersBox Tight Ends

One-Week Drafts:

Mark Andrews (Baltimore Ravens) @ WAS

Andrews has disappointed for two straight weeks but keep the faith. He dropped a touchdown in the end zone against the Chiefs on Monday night in what was an ugly evening for the Baltimore offense. Look for Andrews to bounce back against Washington in Week 4. Washington is allowing the sixth-most fantasy points per game to the tight end position this season. As mentioned below, Zach Ertz is an excellent play, too, considering that Dallas Goedert is not playing. Strategy-wise, I would wait on the position and take whoever is left after your opponent selects his or her tight end.

Also consider: Zach Ertz (Philadelphia Eagles) @SF

Two-to-Four-Week Drafts:

Travis Kelce (Kansas City Chiefs) vs. NE, vs. LV, @BUF, @DEN

Kelce has a tough matchup against the Patriots in Week 4 but he has proven matchup-proof over the past few years. The Raiders have been tough on tight ends this season but Kelce has traditionally fared well against them, catching four touchdowns in their previous six meetings. Buffalo's defense is allowing the 12th-most fantasy points per game to tight ends while the Broncos are 11th.

Also consider: Mark Andrews (Baltimore Ravens) @WAS, vs. CIN, @PHI, vs. PIT
