Top NFL Week 4 DFS picks for Sunday
One of the optimizer’s top DFS value picks for Sunday is Panthers wide receiver Diontae Johnson ($5,600 at DraftKings, $6200 at FanDuel). The switch from Bryce Young to Andy Dalton did wonders for the Panthers offense last week and no one was a bigger benefactor of that than Johnson. The 28-year-old had eight receptions for 122 yards and a touchdown on 14 targets after having 34 total yards and carrying less than 50% of his targets from Young. Dalton is a skilled quarterback who knows how to get the ball to his receivers and Johnson had more than 650 receiving yards in each of his first five seasons as a proven pass catcher.
The Panthers play the Bengals, who allowed Chiefs WR1 Terry McLaurin to record 100 yards and a touchdown last week. The Bengals have one of the softest pass rushes in the NFL this season, as opponents are completing 75% of their passes against them. With Adam Thielen (hamstring) on IR, expect Dalton to lean heavily on Johnson again when making Week 4 NFL DFS picks. See who else to choose here.
The optimizer’s NFL DFS strategy also includes listing Jets running back Breece Hall ($7,800 at DraftKings, $8,000 at FanDuel). Hall has scored a touchdown in all three games this season and had some extended rest entering Sunday after playing Thursday Night Football last week. Hall rushed for 54 yards on 16 carries with a touchdown and had four receptions for 29 yards last week against the Patriots. He averages 96.7 total yards per game.
The Jets play the Broncos, who are allowing 126 rushing yards per game, which ranks 21st in the NFL. Denver is also tied for eighth for most receptions allowed to opposing running backs, which is how Hall separates himself from other running backs in the NFL DFS player pool. The third-year player had 76 receptions last season and shows a quick connection with Aaron Rodgers, making him a strong choice for Week 4 NFL DFS lineups.
