- Andrew EricksonAvailability Calls · Colbie YoungPendingIn his Week 4 buy/sell column, Erickson makes a handful of forward-looking calls: Chase Brown remains Cincinnati's lead back, Keenan Allen is no better than the Colts' third pass-catcher, Mack Hollins is New England's No. 1 target, Jeremiyah Love owns Arizona's backfield, George Kittle is again a top-five fantasy tight end, and Brock Purdy belongs in the MVP conversation. He also makes several availability calls for Week 4 and on Jayden Daniels' return.
- Jacob HerlinAvailability Calls · Bryce YoungPendingRanks all 32 team defenses for fantasy purposes in Week 4, with projected points allowed, sacks, turnovers and fantasy points, putting Minnesota first and Carolina last.

- Ralph VentreAvailability Calls · Christian BenfordPendingVentre expects Christian Benford's toe injury to sideline him for at least the Week 4 game against New England, and believes the Bills will have to add a cornerback to the 53-man roster this week — likely by moving Benford to injured reserve — with practice squad rookie Kani Walker the most likely player elevated.
- Fox SportsAvailability Calls · Jayden DanielsPendingWith surgery ruled out, Washington's outlet speculates Jayden Daniels avoids injured reserve and, if he isn't back for the Week 4 game in London, returns either in Week 5 against the Giants or Week 6 against the 49ers.

McCarthyPendingOn the JJ McCarthy trade he expects Jameis Winston to keep starting for the Giants while McCarthy learns, with McCarthy ready to go around midseason weeks six through eight; he also expects Tyson Bagent to start for the Bears next week with Caleb Williams out.
