The five best NFL player prop bets to make for the upcoming week.
This week we make our picks on a group of underachievers – stars who haven’t blown up as expected this year along with guys who have been career underachievers for the most part.
The Week 4 picks include a pair of draft-inflated quarterbacks fighting for their NFL lives as starters, two of the top three running backs in most fantasy drafts, and a sneaky wide receiver pick who has consistently blown up against his Week 4 opponent.

Our five favorite wagers to make in Week 4.
The NFL apologizes for those forced to endure the “Meh!” trifecta of the Green Bay Packers-Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Denver Broncos-San Francisco 49ers and Dallas Cowboys-New York Giants in stand-alone games on national TV. It taught us that every game can be different but have a similar theme – a combination of playmaking defense and offensive ineptitude.
But as we get deeper into a season, we see the strengths and weaknesses (often injury-related) of teams that lets us hone in more on games to bet on. This week, we’re taking a moneyline pick for some return on investment, betting on a team that has to win, two games that the point spreads are too high, and another that’s too low.
