1. Top-10 Takeaways reviews NFL Week 4 fantasy football, a quarter of the way through the season, with 10 takeaways in about 30 minutes ahead of Monday night's Dolphins-Jets and Broncos-Bengals games. 2. Host Pete of Player Profiler, who says he is a Broncos fan and drafted a lot of Alvin Kamara, delivers solo buy, sell, hold and drop advice, with a cameo ad for the FastDraft Flex Six Frenzy. 3. His thesis is that four weeks is enough sample to pivot, including buying low on slumping players and dropping others, such as Quentin Johnston being worth a trade target after being called a "bust." 4. Christian McCaffrey has not scored under 22 PPR points, gets 18.4 of his points per game through the air on 10.8 targets per game, and has 50% of his remaining games against bottom-third defenses. 5. Alvin Kamara has 11.9 points per game and 3.8 targets per game, on pace for 66 targets, while Kendre Miller posts better yards per carry and Pete doubts a trade because the Saints extended Kamara last season. 6. Pete calls Calvin Ridley "droppable" at 6 points per game on a Tennessee offense with no signs of improving, and prefers Wan'Dale Robinson, while he labels AJ Brown a sell at WR46 behind Philadelphia's fifth-lowest pass rate. 7. Quentin Johnston, a first-round talent, has averaged 19.9 points per game with five straight 70+ yard games, and the Chargers lead the NFL in first-down pass rate over expected, so Pete holds Ladd McConkie rather than selling. 8. The Cowboys rank 32nd in yards allowed (420 per game) and first in yards gained (404 per game), which Pete uses to rate George Pickens a top-10 play while CeeDee Lamb is out with an ankle injury, and Jake Ferguson a top-five tight end. 9. Pete suggests 30% FAAB, up to 40% for needy teams, on Texans rookie Woody Marks after 21 touches in Week 4, and says he is buying Brian Thomas Jr. low despite 9 points per game because of 8 targets per game and a 23% target share. 10. Fantasy football managers weighing waiver, trade and drop decisions will get the most from this episode.
