6. Larry Fitzgerald (Arizona Cardinals) vs. New York Giants

Fitz had five receptions for 64 yards and scored a touchdown against the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday. It wasn’t the impressive performance expected from Fitzgerald this week, but he has been fairly consistent for his fantasy owners so far this season. The New York Giants defense was terrific last week, but they have allowed an average of 24 fantasy points per game to the wide receiver position this season. Kevin Kolb will find a way to connect with Fitz this week.
Point Projection: 16 points

7. Hakeem Nicks (New York Giants) @ Arizona  **PROBABLE - EXPECTED TO PLAY IN WEEK 4**

Nicks had a forgettable performance against the Philadelphia Eagles catching three balls for 25 yards. The Philadelphia Eagles tough secondary was glued to Nicks most of the day, so Victor Cruz was able to reap the benefits. The Arizona Cardinals have struggled against the wide receiver position this season allowing an average of 24.0 fantasy points per game. Expect a bounce back performance for Nicks this week.

8. Wes Welker (New England Patriots) @ Oakland

Wow! Welker had a whopping 16 receptions for 217 yards and scored two touchdowns against the Buffalo Bills in Week 3. He was far and away the team leader in targets (20). The Oakland Raiders have allowed the eighth most fantasy points (24.0) to the wide receiver position this season, so the slot machine has a pretty good chance of paying out again this week. Welker is a great No. 2 wide receiver in most fantasy leagues this week.

9. Roddy White (Atlanta Falcons) @ Seattle  **QUESTIONABLE - EXPECTED TO PLAY IN WEEK 4**

White had a spectacular game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, catching nine balls for 140 yards. Julio Jones also had over 100 yards receiving. If Jones can keep being productive, White, will receive less attention from defensive backs and have more performances similar to Week 3. The last time White went up against the Seattle Seahawks he had a solid game (seven receptions, 65 yards and a touchdown). Have no worries when starting White this week.

10. Jeremy Maclin (Philadelphia Eagles) vs. San Francisco  **PROBABLE - EXPECTED TO PLAY IN WEEK 4**

Maclin was listed as day to day after suffering a hamstring injury in Week 3, however he was upgraded to Probable by the end of the week and is expected to play on Sunday. Maclin has a fantastic matchup against a San Francisco 49ers’ team that has allowed the most touchdowns (5) to the wide receiver position this season. Look for the Eagles offense it be clicking this week and for both Maclin, and DeSean Jackson, to put together a complete game.
Point Projection: 14 points

11. Brandon Marshall (Miami Dolphins) @ San Diego

Marshall had his worst game of the season against the Cleveland Browns in Week 3, hauling in four receptions for 43 yards. A combination of Chad Henne completing only 19 passes and Cleveland Browns emerging star at cornerback, Joe Haden, covering Marshall were the primary reasons for his poor outing. The San Diego Chargers have been decent against the pass allowing an average of 20.3 fantasy points to the wide receiver position, but Marshall should receive the targets to be successful this week. It would be wise to expect a better game from Marshall this week.
Point Projection: 14 points

12. Steve Johnson (Buffalo Bills) @ Cincinnati

Any fantasy owners who had doubts about drafting Steve Johnson this season are probably hitting themselves with a frying pan right now. Okay, so maybe it isn’t that drastic. Johnson had eight receptions for 94 yards and scored a touchdown against the New England Patriots in Week 3. He has scored a touchdown in each of the Buffalo Bills’ three games this season. The Cincinnati Bengals have only allowed an average of 12.0 fantasy points per game to the wide receiver position. However, the Buffalo Bills’ offense continues to pour on the points, so there is no reason Johnson won’t be able to keep this production up. Johnson is an excellent No. 2/No. 3 receiver this week in standard fantasy leagues.
Point Projection: 14 points

13. Desean Jackson (Philadelphia Eagles) vs. San Francisco

Jackson had only two receptions for 30 yards against the New York Giants in Week 3. He has only four receptions for 51 yards over the past two weeks. However, Jackson maybe have his best game of the season this week against a San Francisco 49ers team that has allowed an average of the most fantasy points (35.5) to the wide receiver position this season. Even if he doesn’t see tons of targets, it only takes one big play for Jackson to get his fantasy points and the 49ers have been vulnerable to the big play over the first three weeks of the season.
Point Projection: 14 points

14. Dez Bryant (Dallas Cowboys) vs. Detroit  **GAME-TIME DECISIONS -CHECK STATUS ON SUNDAY**

The Man-Child caught four passes for 63 yards against the Washington Redskins in Week 3. He led the Dallas Cowboys in receiving yardage, even though he was only targeted four times. The most important thing is Bryant appeared healthy in an anemic Dallas Cowboys offense. The Detroit Lions have been surprisingly good against the wide receiver position this season allowing an average of only 15.3 fantasy points per game, which is good enough for sixth in the league. However, Bryant should see more targets this week and use his set of spectacular skills to make his presence known. Expect a nice game for Bryant with Austin out this week. 
Point Projection: 14 points

15. Santonio Holmes (New York Jets) @ Baltimore

Holmes had only one reception for 19 yards against the Oakland Raiders in Week 3. He was productive in the New York Jets first two games, but he has seen his targets decline on a weekly basis. The Baltimore Ravens are good at stuffing the run and the New York Jets running game hasn’t been effective, so Holmes could see heavy targets in Week 3 if the offense turns to the pass. The Baltimore Ravens have also allowed the most receptions (50) and an average of 23.7 fantasy points to the wide receiver position this season. Count on Holmes getting his groove back.
Point Projection: 13 points

16. Steve Smith (Carolina Panthers) vs. Chicago

Ah what happened in Week 3? Smith had only two receptions for 15 yards against the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 3. Cam Newton had an awful game only completing 18 passes for 158 yards, but the weather and poor field conditions were not doubt factors in why Newton couldn’t connect with Smith deep. The Chicago Bears have only allowed an average of 18.7 fantasy points to the wide receiver position this season, but Smith and Cam Newton have terrific chemistry and he has burned the Chicago Bears before in the past. Expect a bounce back game for Smith this week.
Point Projection: 12 points

17. Reggie Wayne (Indianapolis Colts) @ Tampa Bay

Wayne had three receptions for 24 yards against the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 3. He was targeted 13 times, but appeared out for sync with Kerry Collins. Collins may miss the Indianapolis Colts’ Week 4 game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, so backup, Curtis Painter, will likely be throwing to Wayne. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have allowed an average of 22 fantasy points per game to the wide receiver position this season. Wayne is still the Indianapolis Colts best option, receiver wise, so he will likely receive the targets to be successful this week.

18.. Mario Manningham (New York Giants) @ Arizona  **PROBABLE - EXPECTED TO PLAY IN WEEK 4**

Manningham hasn’t received full clearance from the New York Giants medical staff to play in Week 4, but he is expected to later this week. Manningham has seven receptions for 105 yards in two games this season, but has yet to score a touchdown. The Cardinals secondary leaves a lot to be desired, and with New York playing good football right now they should be able to control the style of play in the Desert. If he plays, look for Manningham to get back on track and use his speed to once again be called"Super Mario” by his fantasy football owners.

19. A.J. Green (Cincinnati Bengals) vs. Buffalo

An excellent matchup – wasted. Green caught only four passes for 29 yards against a lousy San Francisco 49ers secondary in Week 3. No Cincinnati Bengals receiver had an excellent game as Andy Dalton only completed 17 passes and had two interceptions. The Buffalo Bills haven’t been great against the pass allowing an average of 23.7 fantasy points per game and it hasn’t been too difficult for opposing offenses to put up points against them, especially the last two games. Expect Green to have a much better game this week.
Point Projection: 11 points

20. Percy Harvin (Minnesota Vikings) @ Kansas City

Harvin had three receptions for 47 yards and added two carries for 41 yards against the Detroit Lions in Week 3. He could have had a better game, but a stomach illness caused Harvin to miss most of the fourth quarter. The Kansas City Chiefs have allowed 109 points through three games this season and have allowed average of 21.7 fantasy points per game to the wide receiver position. If Harvin is over his illness and plays this week, there’s a strong chance this could be one of Harvin’s better games this season.
Point Projection: 11 points

21. Mike Williams (Tampa Bay Buccaneers) vs. Indianapolis

Say it aint so Tampa Bay Mike?  Williams had his second straight unimpressive game against the Atlanta Falcons, hauling in five passes for 43 yards. Josh Freeman wasn’t exactly impressive, but the results for Mike couldn’t be more discouraging for owners who used a third/fourth round pick on him in fantasy drafts. However, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers offense isn’t as bad as they have been playing lately. Perhaps an outing against the hapless Indianapolis Colts is just the right medicine needed to cure what ails the Tampa Bay Buccaneers offense. Count on a productive game for Williams this week, but lose the high expectations.
Point Projection: 10 points

22. Dwayne Bowe (Kansas City Chiefs) vs. Minnesota

Welcome back to fantasy relevance Dwayne. Bowe caught four passes for 67 yards and scored a touchdown in a loss to the San Diego Chargers. Matt Cassel only completed 17 passes, which makes Bowe’s performance sort of fortunate. The Minnesota Vikings have allowed the fifth least fantasy points (15.0) to the wide receiver position this season, but have given up three wide receiving touchdowns. Still it’s tough to expect a great performance from Bowe with the Kansas City Chiefs passing attack being so putrid this season.
Point Projection: 10 points

23. Jordy Nelson (Green Bay Packers) vs. Denver

Nelson only had three receptions for 40 yards against the Chicago Bears in Week 3. There wasn’t much need for Nelson, as Aaron Rodgers was content with picking the Chicago Bears apart with Jermichael Finley and Greg Jennings. The Denver Broncos have allowed three touchdowns to the wide receiver position this season and the Green Bay Packers offense is clicking right now. Expect a better game for Nelson this week.
Point Projection: 9 points

24. Santana Moss (Washington Redskins) @ St. Louis

Moss had five receptions for 70 yards against the Dallas Cowboys in Week 3. He once again led the Washington Redskins in receiving yardage and targets (8). Moss is looking like a strong play this week against a banged up St. Louis Rams secondary that has allowed the second most fantasy points (28.7) to the wide receiver position this season. A fantasy owner could do much worse for a No. 3 receiver this week.
Point Projection: 9 points

25. Lance Moore (New Orleans Saints) @ Jacksonville

Moore was spectacular against the Houston Texans, leading the New Orleans Saints receiving core with nine receptions for 88 yards and a touchdown. His groin clearly wasn’t bothering him anymore as he received nine targets, which was tied for the team lead. The Jacksonville Jaguars have been tough against the wide receiver position this season, but they haven’t had to deal with an offense as prolific as the New Orleans Saints this year. Moore is a great No. 3 receiver choice in most fantasy leagues this week.
