10 Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Targets Heading Into Week 4

J.J. Nelson, WR, Arizona Cardinals

ESPN Ownership: 55%

Yahoo Ownership: 79%

After catching 5 of 7 targets for 120 yards and his second touchdown of the season in Week 2, J.J. Nelson was one of last week's most-added players. However, he is still owned in barely over half of ESPN leagues (though his Yahoo ownership is much higher).

Obviously, Nelson hasn't yet played in Week 3, making this a liquid situation, but with John Brown missing two straight weeks of practice, it would appear Nelson will continue to have a chance to shine for the Arizona Cardinals for the foreseeable future. With David Johnson also out, the Cardinals are starved for playmakers alongside Larry Fitzgerald, so Nelson can be a key cog for the foreseeable future.

After a Week 3 Monday Night Football clash against the Dallas Cowboys, Nelson gets two straight plus-matchups against a San Francisco 49ers team that gave up 41 points to the Los Angeles Rams in Week 3 and a Philadelphia Eagles defense that just gave up three passing touchdowns to the previously with-a-pulse New York Giants' offense.

Nelson has a chance to be a fantasy starter for the next few weeks, and he may carve out a regular role for himself if he continues to thrive. He should be owned in all leagues.
