Bijan Robinson or Alvin Kamara Week 4 Start 'Em, Sit 'Em: Fantasy football projections for RBs

With the New Orleans Saints and the Atlanta Falcons playing on Sunday, all eyes will be on the running back battle between Bijan Robinson and Alvin Kamara. The two running backs are set to perform a great duel in fantasy football terms.

Is Bijan Robinson a great fantasy pick in Week 4?

Against a New Orleans Saints defense who allowed a monster game for Saquon Barkley in Week 3, it's difficult not to envision a scenario where Robinson doesn't explode for a great game. He will be the focal offensive point for Atlanta and breaking the 100-yard mark isn't out of the question.

Robinson had a great start to the season, and the Falcons are a good team who just need a bit of luck. They're the favorites against the Saints in Week 4 and much of it has to do with their running back projected to have a great game.

Is Alvin Kamara a great fantasy pick in Week 4?

The expectation is that Kamara will return to his glory days with a great game against the Falcons as well, especially as they face a defense who's not as stout as the Eagles. Vic Fangio's unit did a great job stopping them through the middle of the line, but Atlanta doesn't have the same firepower.

Kamara could explode for a great game, but even if he's just good enough, this would make him a valuable option for your team. Of course, he also has pass catching abilities, so this helps.

The numbers from Sportskeeda's Start/Sit Optimizer are clear. The Falcons superstar is a much better option, as Atlanta will probably use a ton of checkdowns tomorrow while also feeding him the ball to run through their tackles.

The projection for Kamara is good as well, but Bijan has one of the highest projections of the week and he's set to be the starter for every team who has him. This is not Kamara's demerit - Bijan is just to good not to start in Week 4.
