The sample size continues to grow, giving us a better idea of exactly what we should expect from a lot of players in fantasy. And while the conversation around trades is often centered around buy low and sell high, there is also nothing wrong with buying high on players who appear to be legitimate. Let's highlight the top fantasy football trade targets for Week 4.

Week 4 Trade Targets For Fantasy Football

Chase Brown | RB | Cincinnati Bengals

We haven’t seen a true ceiling game from Brown just yet, but it definitely feels like it’s right around the corner. He’s had some tough matchups with the Texans, Steelers and Bucs run defenses, but his role is still very fantasy-friendly.

Through three weeks, Brown has handled 78% of Cincinnati’s rush attempts, the fourth-highest rate in the NFL. His 71% snap share also ranks seventh among running backs, while logging 95% of the two-minute drill snaps. We know this Cincinnati offense is very good, yet Brown has just two goal-to-go carries through the first two weeks (29th). Why?

Well, sometimes the Bengals offense can be too good.

The Bengals are averaging just 2.7 red zone scoring trips per game so far this season, good for 24th in the league. But it isn’t because they’re having trouble moving the ball. Instead, the Bengals continue to score touchdowns from long distances. Cincinnati has scored four-of-seven touchdowns from more than 15 yards out. Once the explosive touchdowns come down and the Bengals sustain longer drives that get to the goal line, Brown will begin to benefit.

Bhayshul Tuten | RB | Jacksonville Jaguars

I highlighted Tuten as a player to trade for last week, but I’m doubling down. Trying to predict rational coaching decisions is always a very risky proposition, but I have to imagine Liam Coen and company will start to give Tuten more work going forward.

Right?

Tuten once again hovered right around 50% of the snaps this Sunday. And Tuten was once again productive, rushing for 73 yards and a touchdown on 15 carries. Admittedly, his touchdown was a bit of a blessing (thank you, Trevor Lawrence), but what isn't up for debate is who has clearly been Jacksonville’s best running back through three weeks. Tuten currently ranks second among running backs in avoided tackle rate (34.9%), third in yards after contact per rush (4.28), and fifth in first downs per rush (30.2%). He’s been too good to take him off the field for Ameer Abdullah, who is seeing 4.3 opportunities per game on five snaps for some reason.

Tuten and Chris Rodriguez have split the inside-the-five-yard-line carries thus far, but if he begins to separate himself in that department, the top-12 upside can absolutely be realized.

Zach Charbonnet | RB | Seattle Seahawks

First things first. Make sure Charbonnet isn’t on waivers in your league. He’s only rostered in about half of ESPN leagues. But if he is on a roster, I think this could be a very sneaky trade target for teams that need running back depth.

Especially if you’re off to a 3-0 or 2-1 start.

Charbonnet will miss at least the next two weeks while still on the PUP list, though his expected return date is still very much up in the air. Regardless, given how underwhelming Seattle’s backfield has been, he should have a sizable role upon his return. First-round rookie Jadarian Price looks explosive, but has struggled with ball security. Meanwhile, no one in this backfield has excelled at the goal line, a role Charbonnet can absolutely handle. On 13 goal-to-go carries through three weeks (2nd-most), the Seahawks have scored just one rushing touchdown. And that came from tight end AJ Barner on a tush push.

If your team is off to a great start but is looking for some added depth to your running back room, you could give up very little for Charbonnet, whose value should be rising based on what we’re seeing from Seattle’s backfield.

Matthew Golden | WR | Green Bay Packers

Golden is off to a very good start, giving us the second-year breakout many were hoping for. He caught five passes for 100 yards last Thursday, and it honestly could have been a better day. Golden recorded nearly 200 air yards, as he continuously gets behind the defense, often forcing defensive pass interference penalties. His 95 pass interference yards drawn are easily the most in the NFL, showcasing how close he’s been to even more fantasy points. Of course, even with those missed connections with Jordan Love, Golden is still the WR14 in PPR PPG (15.4), and the volume should remain strong the rest of the way.

The Packers cannot run the football whatsoever, while their defense clearly misses Micah Parsons. Green Bay now leads the NFL in dropback rate (76%) and dropback rate over expected (11%), a massive shift from what we’ve grown accustomed to seeing from a Matt LaFleur offense. And I don’t see it changing a whole lot going forward. In their last six regular-season games with Parsons sidelined, the Packers are surrendering 28.3 points per game.
