NFL Week 4: Fantasy IDP report

• The ultimate Mack attack: Khalil Mack comes up with a massive IDP performance this week on the back of six sacks!

• A return to an elite deployment for Kyle Dugger: Dugger played more than half of his snaps in the box for the first time this season and delivered 15 total tackles as a result.

• Injury, trending down, or both?: Shaquille Leonard left this week’s game with an injury but continues to fall out of favor with IDP managers and potentially the Colts’ coaching staff.

Estimated reading time: 43 minutes

Week 4 Takeaways

Waiver wire

LB Christian Harris, Houston Texans: Harris played more snaps than last week (62%) and led the team in tackles as a result. Harris is worth adding until Denzel Perryman is officially back in the lineup.
LB E.J. Speed, Indianapolis Colts: With Shaquille Leonard’s downfall and injuries, E.J. Speed stands out as a top waiver wire target this week, as he should see an increased role even if Leonard is active next week.
LB Chad Muma, Jacksonville Jaguars: Muma played an every-down role in Devin Lloyd’s absence, and this should continue for at least another week. Lloyd had to have thumb surgery and did not travel with the rest of his team to London last week where they will play another game in Week 5.
LB David Long, Miami Dolphins: Long appears to have moved into the team’s LB1 role given the decline in playing time for Jerome Baker. The only thing to be wary of for prospective Long managers or those adding him on the waiver wire would be the potential for Andrew Van Ginkel to steal snaps should he move back into that role when Jaelan Phillips is healthy.
ED Dayo Odeyingbo, Indianapolis Colts: Odeyingbo would see an increased role if Paye is unable to pass concussion protocol in time for Week 5. Odeyingbo posted 1.5 sacks this week against the Rams and draws a decent matchup again against the Titans next week.
ED Tuli Tuipulotu, Los Angeles Chargers: Tuipulotu played more than enough snaps to be in consideration for IDP lineups with Joey Bosa’s hamstring injury keeping him off the field once again this week. The Chargers have a bye week in Week 5 so Bosa could be back but Tulipulotu would be the one to add if he is unable to return for Week 6.
ED Andrew Van Ginkel, Miami Dolphins: Van Ginkel delivered two sacks in this game but what makes him more interesting is how much Vic Fangio wants to keep him as a big part of this defense. Jaelan Phillips is dealing with an oblique injury and has missed two games this season already which has helped Van Ginkel get more edge snaps. However, when Phillips returns, Van Ginkel should still have a role potentially playing more off-ball linebacker and keeping him IDP-relevant.
S Taylor Rapp, Buffalo Bills: Jordan Poyer was inactive for this game with a knee injury and coud potentially miss more time which makes Rapp a name worth adding off waivers for those looking to replace Poyer.
S Brandon Jones, Miami Dolphins: DeShon Elliott missed this game with an ankle injury which allowed Brandon Jones to get a starting job back after tearing his ACL last season and losing that job to the newly signed Elliott. Jones should continue in a full-time role while Elliott is out but Jevon Holland appears to still have the box-heavy role in this defense.

Point of interest: Kyzir White remains the top Cardinals’ linebacker to target by far. Ezekiel Turner had a productive day but on 69% of the available snaps, he will be difficult to trust outside of deep leagues. It’s also worth noting that Josh Woods would be ahead of him on the depth chart if he returns next game, making Turner someone who can mostly be avoided on waivers this week.

Point of interest: David Onyemata landed 1.5 sacks in this game. Onyemata has been a disruptive presence for the Falcons this year, earning an 88.0 pass-rush grade so far this season. He’ll be a name to target in deeper DT-required leagues.

Nate Landman	81.8%	92.0%	50.0%	22.2%	12

Point of interest: Nate Landman didn’t quite play an every-down role but found ways to be the most productive Falcons linebacker hitting double-digit tackles this week. Landman was a waiver target a couple of weeks ago and remains in consideration for deeper leagues considering Troy Andersen is out for the year.

Point of interest: The Ravens’ edge group has been dealing with significant injuries, as Tyus Bowser is already on the NFI list, David Ojabo was recently replaced on IR, and Odafe Oweh has now been inactive for each of the past two games. The hope is that Oweh will be back next game but the rest of this group can mostly be avoided outside of the deepest leagues.

Point of interest: Kyle Hamilton’s role shifted again this week after dominating the slot snap percentages in Week 3 and posting three sacks, as he played a bit more in the box this week but did not rush the passer once. Hamilton still posted five tackles and an interception to help IDP managers that went back to him this week.

Point of interest: The Panthers made a choice to limit the usage of their linebackers outside of Frankie Luvu and utilize a rotation of players as the second linebacker instead of deploying one more full-time player. Jeremy Chinn played more box snaps this week to help fill that void left by Shaq Thompson.

Point of interest: Donovan Wilson’s playing time only increased this week in his second game back from injury. Wilson’s usage in the box allowed him to post six total tackles, but IDP managers will want to see his snap share get up over 80% before trusting him in lineups in most leagues.

Point of interest: Nik Bonitto posted 2.5 sacks this week against one of the most sacked quarterbacks in the league in Justin Fields. Bonitto has shown flashes of being a good pass-rusher in the NFL but has been unable to string together any consistency which, despite the decent playing time, makes him difficult to trust in most leagues until those pass-rush metrics get more consistent.

Point of interest: Josey Jewell was inactive for this game, which allowed Alex Singleton to play an every-down role. Rookie Drew Sanders, who made last week’s waiver wire targets, also saw an increased role and had a relatively productive day. He remains someone of interest for deeper leagues assuming Jewell misses more time.

Point of interest: Aidan Hutchinson’s dominant start to his sophomore season continued this week with an eight-pressure game that led to 1.5 sacks. Hutchinson is averaging 91% of defensive snaps and has yet to post fewer than six pressures in a game which has led to an 89.8 pass-rush grade through four games. He should be considered a locked-in top-12 IDP edge defender going forward.

Point of interest: Despite his dominance as a pass-rusher, Rashan Gary continues to be kept on a pitch count as he returns from a torn ACL. The plan very well could be to keep him on a reduced snap share until after the team’s Week 6 bye.

Waiver wire: With Denzel Perryman out again, rookie Henry To'oTo'o played a near-every-down role, which was expected from his waiver target mention last week. However, Christian Harris played more snaps than last week (62%) and led the team in tackles as a result. Harris is worth adding until Perryman is officially back in the lineup.

Point of interest: Jalen Pitre played his first full game of the season and saw the largest share of box snaps among the team’s safeties, and while it didn’t lead to much tackle production, he should be able to take advantage of that in the weeks ahead.

Injury: Kwity Paye suffered a head injury in this game, which has landed him in concussion protocol this week.
Waiver wire: Dayo Odeyingbo would see an increased role if Paye is unable to pass concussion protocol in time for Week 5. Odeyingbo posted 1.5 sacks in this game against the Rams and draws a decent matchup again against the Titans next week.

Point of interest: It appears that DeForest Buckner was strategically limited in this game after missing a lot of practice this past week dealing with a groin injury. It’s possible that Buckner will continue to be limited in practice this week which hopefully allows him to play more snaps in Week 5.

Point of interest: Shaquille Leonard left this game with a back injury in the fourth quarter and did not return to the game. Leonard has been hampered by injuries over the past few seasons and has seen his role reduced to early downs only this season. It’s possible that a combination of injuries and lack of ability at the moment create trust issues for the team in getting him on the field more this season.
Waiver wire: With Leonard’s downfall and injuries, E.J. Speed stands out as a top waiver wire target this week as he should see an increased role even if Leonard is active next week.

Point of interest: Josh Allen delivered another hat-trick of sacks this week, marking the second time this season that he’s posted a three-sack game. Allen now has six sacks on the year after posting just seven all of last season. Travon Walker also landed a sack but his pass-rush metrics continue to be concerning, making him a volume-based play only in IDP leagues.

Point of interest: Maxx Crosby continues to be the league’s greatest workhorse along the defensive line, playing every single snap in this game and delivering two sacks and eight total tackles. Just as Crosby never leaves the field, he should never leave IDP starting lineups.

Trending down: Divine Deablo’s snap counts have declined in each of the past two weeks after playing 94% of his team's defensive snaps in each of the first two weeks. Deablo’s most recent snap share dip allowed him to total just three tackles on the day. He is falling outside of LB3 range for most league sizes at this point.

Point of interest: Khalil Mack delivered six sacks (not a typo) in this game, which made him far and away the top IDP scorer for the week. Mack has been a frustrating IDP at times over the past few seasons, as he can have long stretches with very little production despite typically playing more than enough snaps to deliver that production.
Waiver wire: Tuli Tuipulotu also played more than enough snaps to be in consideration for IDP lineups with Joey Bosa’s hamstring injury keeping him off the field once again this week.

Daiyan Henley	1.4%	0.0%	7.1%	0.0%	0

Point of interest: Eric Kendricks was seemingly held on a pitch count for this game due to returning from a hamstring injury that sidelined him in each of the previous two weeks. With the Chargers getting a bye week in Week 5, it’s likely that Kendricks returns to his full-time role in Week 6 which would likely push Kenneth Murray’s snap share down a bit.

Point of interest: The Chargers were without Derwin James, Alohi Gilman and JT Woods at safety in this game. With the Week 5 bye, there isn’t likely a need to either any of the two that filled in this week with the assumption that at least two of the starters should be back in Week 6.

Chase Winovich	5.2%	10.7%	0.0%

Waiver wire: Andrew Van Ginkel delivered two sacks in this game but what makes him more interesting is how much Vic Fangio wants to keep him as a big part of this defense. Jaelan Phillips is dealing with an oblique injury and has missed two games this season already, which has helped Van Ginkel get more edge snaps. However, when Phillips returns, Van Ginkel should still have a role potentially playing more off-ball linebacker and keeping him IDP-relevant.

Jerome Baker	75.9%	72.9%	90.0%	11.4%	5
Duke Riley	31.0%	31.3%	30.0%	5.6%	1

Trending down: Jerome Baker saw his snaps fall to second among the team’s linebackers this week, which isn’t a good sign for him as he played behind David Long all game and behind even Duke Riley in the fourth quarter. Part of the fourth quarter could have been the game getting out of hand but at the very least, on a team that typically only deploys one full-time linebacker, it no longer appears to be Baker.
Waiver wire: David Long appears to have moved into the team’s LB1 role given the decline in playing time for Baker. The only thing to be wary of for prospective Long managers or those adding him on the waiver wire would be the potential for Van Ginkel to steal snaps should he move back into that role when Jaelan Phillips is healthy.

Waiver wire: DeShon Elliott missed this game due to an ankle injury, which allowed Brandon Jones to get a starting job back after tearing his ACL last season and losing that job to the newly signed Elliott. Jones should continue in a full-time role while Elliott is out but Jevon Holland appears to still have the box-heavy role in this defense.

Point of interest: Harrison Smith had a disappointing start to the year, at least until this week when he had a three-sack game to remind IDP managers why he’s been one of the best fantasy safeties for nearly a decade. Coming into this week, Smith was struggling with missed tackles and poor run defense grades but this was his best game of the year with neither of those issues popping up.

Trending up: Kyle Dugger regained the box-heavy role that he’s played for most of his NFL career. After not surpassing 38% of his defensive snaps in the box in the first three games of the year, he saw over half of his snaps in the box this week. As a result, Dugger had a massive tackle game with 15 on the day. This role would keep him as a locked-in top-10 IDP safety option going forward.

Point of interest: Haason Reddick finally registered a sack this week after frustrating IDP managers with multiple goose-egg performances through the first three weeks. Reddick still hasn’t looked quite like the sack machine that we’ve seen in years past and should still be considered a matchup-based play at this point until he can show more.

Zach Cunningham	84.6%	84.2%	85.7%	19.7%	13

Point of interest: Nicholas Morrow, after back-to-back games with a tackle efficiency that was well below average for the position despite playing an every-down role, made up for his IDP transgressions by delivering three sacks and double-digit tackles this week. Double-digit tackles should continue to be in play for as long as he is playing 100% of snaps.

Fool’s gold: Elandon Roberts led the Steelers linebackers in tackles this week, but he played fewer than 60% of the available snaps, which is not ideal to trust going forward. This Steelers’ linebacker rotation continues to cause inconsistent production and trust issues for IDP managers as to when it will be safe to start them on a weekly basis.
