How many times have you heard someone telling you to “stream” a position? Whether it be quarterback, tight end, or defense, the idea of streaming is great, provided you get the players you want off the waiver wire. The issue with streaming week-to-week is that everyone knows who you’ll be targeting in those good matchups and you might have that player swiped from underneath you, or even worse, your opponent that week may snag a player just to ensure you don’t get them.

We started this article so you don’t have to worry about that anymore. Each Saturday morning, you’ll head over to your waiver wire and snag the players who are lined up for good matchups the following week. They may have a brutal matchup for that current week. Great, even better. That just means they’re more likely to be available for you. By snagging them a week prior, you eliminate the need to spend a lot of FAAB dollars on the top tier defense that everyone is chasing. Here’s the players who have solid Week 4 matchups on tap and are less than 40 percent owned.

Quarterbacks

Andy Dalton (CIN) vs ARI
In case you’ve missed it, Dalton and Kyler Murray rank No. 1 and No. 2 in pass attempts under their new head coaches. Dalton has averaged a very respectable 7.6 yards per attempt and has thrown five touchdowns, while Murray has averaged 6.1 yards per attempt and has thrown four touchdown. I bet everyone ranks Murray as a top-10 quarterback against the Bengals. Meanwhile, the Cardinals have allowed a massive 8.50 yards per attempt and an 8.3 percent touchdown-rate. Dalton may wind-up as the better play.

Mitch Trubisky (CHI) vs OAK
He looked horrendous against the Packers, slightly better against the Broncos, and then solid against the Redskins last week. He’s far from someone you want to trust, but he had a horrendous start to last year, too. Here’s the splits from his first three games and the rest of the season.

He has a brutal matchup against the Vikings in Week 4, which means he’s likely available everywhere. The Raiders have faced the eighth-fewest pass attempts but have allowed the ninth-most fantasy points to quarterbacks while allowing a massive 9.22 yards per attempt.

If he’s somehow available, he’d be the best: Kirk Cousins (MIN)

Running Backs

Alexander Mattison (MIN) at NYG
There are certain matchups you can use backup running backs and the Giants happen to be one of them. Mattison has already averaged 8.3 carries per game to this point and turned them into 132 yards and a touchdown. Against the Giants, opposing running backs have totaled at least 26 carries in every game. Knowing it’ll be Daniel Jones without Saquon Barkley against the Vikings defense, this game has blowout written all over it. This should lead to Mattison getting 10-plus carries against that Giants defense that’s allowed 254 yards and two touchdowns to the combination of Bucs and Bills running backs the last two weeks. While Dalvin Cook will go off, Mattison will likely get in on some of the action. Even better, he’s one of the best handcuffs in fantasy football.

Rex Burkhead (NE) at WAS
It struck me as odd that Burkhead was still under 40 percent owned, as he’s been the best Patriots running back through three weeks. He may never be a 20-touch-per-game guy but he can be a streamer’s delight during bye weeks. No one thinks the Redskins are going to hang with the Patriots, right? That would mean we’ll see at least 30-40 touches among the Patriots running backs, meaning there’s enough to go around. Through three weeks, Burkhead has averaged 13.7 combined carries/targets. Yes, James White missed one of the games, but Burkhead should be owned everywhere.

Should be universally owned (though not for a start in Week 5): Tony Pollard (DAL)

Wide Receivers

Randall Cobb (DAL) vs GB
Who doesn’t love a good revenge narrative? It also doesn’t hurt that Amari Cooper will be tangled up with Jaire Alexander while Cobb gets to match-up with Tramon Williams. With the amount of pressure that the Packers have been bringing, expect the gameplan to include some short/quick throws to relieve some of that, which is perfect for Cobb’s role.

Parris Campbell (IND) at KC
This pickup has a double purpose, as Campbell can be played in Week 4 if T.Y. Hilton is forced to miss the game against the Raiders. Campbell is a size/speed freak who is just what the Colts would need against the high-flying Chiefs. We watched speed get the best of the Chiefs in Week 1 when both D.J. Chark and Chris Conley found their way behind the defense. Campbell may be a late bloomer due to the hamstring injury he suffered during training camp, but his snaps are on the rise while Hilton ails.

Paul Richardson/Trey Quinn (WAS) vs NE
Not only do the Redskins average the third-most pass attempts per game (41.3/game), but they will be playing the Patriots in Week 5, which has produced at least 38 pass attempts for two of the three teams they’ve played. While Terry McLaurin will draw Stephon Gilmore in coverage, that means Richardson and Quinn should be the primary targets for Case Keenum/Dwayne Haskins/Colt McCoy (whoever is under center) when the game goes south.

Other desperation targets: Mohamed Sanu (ATL) at HOU, Taylor Gabriel/Anthony Miller (CHI) vs OAK

Tight Ends

Tyler Eifert (CIN) vs ARI
In case you haven’t heard, the Cardinals are really bad against tight ends. I mean, like really really bad. Of the top five games for tight ends in 2019, three of them have come from Cardinals’ opponents. Guys, we’ve had three games. Eifert ran 23 routes last week, which was much more than the eight routes for C.J. Uzomah, so he’s distancing the timeshare there’s been. Eifert will be one of the most popular waiver wire adds next week.

Trey Burton (CHI) vs OAK
In the same defensive scheme, the Raiders allowed 2.28 PPR points per target to tight ends last year, which included a ridiculous 10.29 yards per target. Both of those marks were the highest in the NFL. After drafting Johnathan Abram to help take care of that problem, he was hurt in Week 1 and will miss the entire season. Burton was a top-12 tight end last year and will offer streaming potential versus the Raiders.

Last ditch option: Jack Doyle (IND) at KC

D/ST

New Orleans Saints vs TB
The Saints defense hasn’t been great, though they also haven’t been whole. In Week 1, they were without two of their best defensive linemen. David Onyemata came back in Week 2, but Sheldon Rankins has still yet to return, though it seems likely he’ll make his season debut in Week 4. Not only will his return help plug the run, but it’ll help create pressure on Jameis Winston. Even without Rankins, the Saints defense is the only team in the league who’s pressured the opposing quarterback at least 50 percent of the time in 2-of-3 games. When under pressure, Winston has completed just 50 percent of his passes with three interceptions.

Carolina Panthers vs JAX
The Panthers were lacking pressure to the quarterback last year, which forced Ron Rivera to reconsider things and shift some players around, including a new hybrid scheme on defense. Through three games, it’s paid off as the Panthers have amassed 12 sacks, which ranks third in the NFL behind only the Jaguars and Patriots. Gardner Minshew may be a lot better than everyone thought, but he’s not someone that forces you to look elsewhere for a streamer, especially knowing his offensive line is mediocre, at best.
