Monday Quick Hits > Week 4

Here are some quick hits and tasty tidbits for you to consider as you set your Week 4 Monday night fantasy lineups.

Baltimore Ravens

* Running back Willis McGahee (eyelid) should play against the Steelers, but he figures to lose some carries to LeRon McClain (ankle/back). Consider Willie Mac a No. 3 or flex running back.

* McClain, meanwhile, is a worthy start due to his nose for the goal line. If you still have a roster spot available, McClain is not a bad choice as a flex play.

* IDP note: Defensive back Samari Rolle (shoulder/neck) will not play this week.

Pittsburgh Steelers

* Wideout Santonio Holmes is off to a slow start, but he’s still a viable No. 3 fantasy wideout this week.

* Running back Willie Parker (knee) will not play this week, and word is that he may miss Week 5 as well. Rashard Mendenhall will start in his place.

* Mendenhall draws a tough matchup against the Ravens defense, but he’s still worth a start as a flex option. He should be owned in all fantasy formats at this point.

* Quarterback Ben Roethlisberger (hand) should be fine health-wise, but the tough Ravens defense makes him a No. 2 fantasy quarterback this week.

* IDP notes: Cornerback Deshea Townsend (heel) is practicing fully again, but Bryant McFadden will again draw the start this week. Safety Troy Polamalu (thigh) practiced fully Friday and makes a fine IDP option in most leagues.
