Updated rankings, including standard and PPR (Points Per Reception), will be released on Thursday, and keep an eye out for the final version before kickoff on Sunday morning.

Importance of Flex Position

In Half PPR formats, players in the Flex category can make a significant difference in your scoring outcomes. It's crucial to consider various factors, from player matchups to injuries, to maximize your team's potential.

Key Players to Watch for Week 4

Here are some key players to watch for Week 4:

1. Wide Receivers

Look for players with favorable matchups against weaker secondary defenses. Players like Amari Cooper and Michael Pittman Jr. have been standout performers this season and could be excellent flex options.

2. Running Backs

With injuries affecting backfields around the league, players stepping into expanded roles, such as Arizona's James Conner, may provide unexpected value.

3. Tight Ends

Don’t overlook tight ends who can also be slotted into the Flex position. Stars like Darren Waller or emerging talents like David Njoku can make a big impact in your lineup.

Conclusion

Don’t forget — the rankings reflect not only current performances but also the latest trends in matchups and individual player form. As the best in the game, theScore's Justin Boone topped FantasyPros' Most Accurate Expert Competition in 2019, proving his expertise in identifying game-changers.
