In order to provide advice you can actually implement, candidates for streaming must be rostered in no more than 40% of Yahoo! fantasy leagues. As always, check 4for4’s rankings and our signature schedule-adjusted fantasy points allowed (aFPA) metric when making weekly decisions on any position.
Week 4 Recap
While my top streamer, Matt Gay, was abysmal last week, three of my other four recommendations were among the top 11 kickers in Week 4. Brett Maher was K2 with 15 fantasy points, Brandon McManus came through in London with 13 points as K4, and Wil Lutz tied for K11 by posting nine fantasy points on the week.

The Panthers have allowed the seventh-most points through four contests and get a high-octane Detroit squad this week. The Lions are favored by nine points in this feline showdown, with an implied team total of 27 (the fourth highest on the slate).
