10 Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Targets Heading Into Week 4
Tyler Boyd has emerged as a key cog in the Bengals' passing attack. Which other players should you look to add for Week 4?

Jordy Nelson, WR, Oakland Raiders

Yahoo Ownership: 52%

Raise your hand if you saw Jordy Nelson posting an absurd 6-catch, 173-yard performance in Week 3? Nah, me neither. But there's plenty of reasons to believe this wasn't a one-week wonder, and we need to own the wide receiver moving forward.

Nelson led the way with a team-high eight targets this week, which equaled his entire 2018 total prior to his Week 3 explosion. He also leads the winless Oakland Raiders in air yards per target. In 2016, Nelson flashed that same big-play ability, catching 97 passes for 1,257 receiving yards and 14 scores with a strong 13.0 TAY mark.

Nelson has a tough Week 4 matchup with Cleveland immediately on tap, but with Amari Cooper struggling, Nelson is a fantasy asset we want to roster.
