For Week 4 PPR fantasy football, current expert and model-based recommendations emphasize a few key players to start based on recent performance, injuries, and matchups. Top quarterback options include Josh Allen (BUF), Lamar Jackson (BAL), Justin Herbert (LAC), Jalen Hurts (PHI), and Drake Maye (NE), with Allen and Jackson leading projections for points this week.

Wide receivers to strongly consider starting include players like Puka Nacua (LAR), Justin Jefferson (MIN), and Jaxon Smith-Njigba (SEA) who have favorable matchups and high target volumes.
Tight ends also present a surprising breakout in Week 4, but specifics depend on the latest projections and matchup analysis.
