Every week, Mike Mital is responsible for telling fantasy football owners around the world who to sit and who to start. This is not your grandpa’s ordinary, boring start em sit em list–this is bold! You’ve been warned…
If you haven’t already, listen to our weekly podcast where we talk about why Diggs is not all that and compare Dak and Romo.
Week 4 Start em
Jordan Howard – Chi RB
With the ankle injury to starter Jeremy Langford in Week 3, the Jordan Howard show is ready to debut in the Windy City. The rookie RB showed the ability to catch passes and run with authority against Dallas and will get all the lion’s share of carries at home against Detroit this week. Consider Howard an RB2 with high-ceiling RB1 potential as long as Langford is out.

Week 4 Sit em
Julian Edelman – NE WR
With the uncertain quarterback situation in New England, Edelman appears to be a candidate to take some snaps a la Terrelle Pryor in Week 3. If that is the case, his options to throw to will be very limited as he is the best wide receiver on the team by far. Gronk has yet to show he can be a factor this season, and it will take some time for him to get back into his dominating ways. All these factors considered, his fantasy ceiling is a lot lower than usual this week against a Bills defense that is third in the league in sacks with 10 on the season.
