Week 7 FanDuel Quarterbacks - NFL DFS Lineup Picks

Jayden Daniels – vs. CAR ($9,100)

The Panthers are arguably the worst team in the National Football League, so Daniels will surely be one of the most popular DFS quarterbacks available on Sunday.

Jayden Daniels was once again voted as the Pepsi NFL rookie of the week.

The signal-caller is already the favorite to win the Rookie of the Year Award, and he’s also the third-best fantasy quarterback. With the Commanders coming off a Week 6 loss to the Ravens, Daniels and company will be ready to get back on track against Carolina.

Jared Goff - at MIN ($7,800)

Detroit trounced Dallas in Week 6. With momentum on their side, the Lions will meet the Vikings in an NFC North clash. While the year is still far from over, this contest could have significant ramifications come playoff time.

Fortunately for the Lions, Goff has played well against Minnesota throughout his career (eight games), throwing for 2,373 yards, 15 touchdowns, and three interceptions while completing 67.1% of his attempts.

Also Consider: Sam Darnold ($7,500)

Week 7 FanDuel Running Backs - NFL DFS Lineup Picks

Kyren Williams – vs. LV ($8,600)

The Rams could be fortunate enough to get Cooper Kupp back after weeks on the shelf because of an ankle injury. Still, no matter if the wideout is on the field or not, it will be business as usual for Williams versus the Raiders.

The 24-year-old has scored at least once in each game this season, and he’s coming off a potent 102-yard performance in the Week 5 loss to the Packers.

Joe Mixon - at GB ($8,400)

Mixon began the season with a bang, accumulating 159 yards and a touchdown off 30 carries in the win over the Colts back in Week 1. Unfortunately, he suffered an ankle injury during the Week 2 matchup with Chicago.

Yet, the former Bengal didn’t miss a beat in his return against the Pats, running for 102 yards while finding the end zone twice. Mixon was limited in Thursday’s practice. But he should be good to go against the Packers.

Also Consider: Bijan Robinson ($8,200), Chuba Hubbard ($7,400), Tyrone Tracy Jr. ($6,200)

Week 7 FanDuel Wide Receivers - NFL DFS Lineup Picks

Tank Dell - at GB ($7,000)

Nico Collins will miss more time because of a bum hamstring. With the Texans down their top receiver, others will need to step up. Of course, Stefon Diggs is more than capable of being the featured receiver on any team. But the door is open for Dell to remain more involved moving ahead.

The 2023 No. 69 overall pick had his best game of the 2024-25 campaign in Week 6, bringing in seven of his nine targets for 57 yards. He also scored a touchdown, his first of the year.

With that said, DFS managers should keep Dell in mind for Sunday’s game against the Green Bay Packers.

Jameson Williams - at MIN ($6,500)

Naturally, Amon-Ra St. Brown gets the most attention from opposing defenses. Yet, Williams has quietly had a good season for the Lions. His first two years in the league weren’t memorable. However, the 23-year-old has a touchdown in three of his five games this season.

With the Vikings and Lions projected to have one of the highest-scoring games on the schedule, Williams has an excellent chance of finding the end zone once again.

Also Consider: Justin Jefferson ($9,400), Amon-Ra St. Brown ($8,800), Drake London ($7,500), Terry McLaurin ($7,200), Ray-Ray McCloud III ($5,500)

Week 7 FanDuel Tight Ends - NFL DFS Lineup Picks

Dalton Schultz - at GB ($5,200)

Stefon Diggs and Tank Dell are projected to be Houston’s top pass-catchers while Nico Collins is sidelined. But Schultz may get more action as well, just like he did in the Week 6 win over the Patriots. He only had four catches for 27 yards in that one. However, he was targeted eight times, more than in any other game this season.

Keep Schultz on the radar against a Green Bay team that has struggled against opposing tight ends in 2024-25.

Also Consider: George Kittle ($7,500), Brock Bowers ($7,000), Kyle Pitts ($5,900)
