Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Week 4: Smart Sleepers to Exploit and Lineup Advice

A healthy amount of fantasy football players rushed to the waiver wire on Thursday night in an attempt to pick up Carolina Panthers running back Chuba Hubbard.

The rookie out of Oklahoma State is expected to see an increase in production while Christian McCaffrey heals from his hamstring injury.

Hubbard should be the most popular waiver-wire selection, but he may not be playable in fantasy football leagues in Week 4.

Carolina visits the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday. Dallas has not allowed a 100-yard rusher yet this season and it has a high turnover rate.

Hubbard may be a smart play in other weeks, especially in Week 5 against Philadelphia, but he may have trouble finding his footing in Carolina's first game without McCaffrey this season.
