NFL Rookies to Watch for Fantasy Football Week 7 Including Dameon Pierce, Kenny Pickett, Tyquan Thornton, Greg Dulcich

Rookie running backs had a great week last week. Breece Hall led the pack with 121 scrimmage yards and a touchdown to help the Jets earn a 27-10 victory over Green Bay. Kenneth Walker III put up 110 scrimmage yards and a score for Seattle in his first game as a starter. Moreover, Commanders rookie […]

Kenny Pickett A Low-End QB2 If He Plays In Week 7

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Kenny Pickett was knocked out of Week 6's win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers with a concussion. Pickett is trending toward playing against the Miami Dolphins in Week 7 after he cleared the league's concussion protocol on Friday. The Steelers haven't officially named Pickett the starter but it is expected that Mitch […]

Taylor Heinicke A Solid QB2 In Week 7

Washington Commanders quarterback Taylor Heinicke will be making his first start of the season in Week 7 against the Green Bay Packers. The backup quarterback has been thrust into the starting role in place of Carson Wentz due to a finger injury he suffered in Week 6. While starting Heinicke in fantasy is less than […]

Geno Smith Looking To Bounce Back In Week 7

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Geno Smith will look to bounce back this week against the Chargers. Last week, the 32-year-old threw 197 yards and zero touchdowns against the Cardinals. Smith was having a lot of trouble in the pocket, and the offensive line did him no favors as they allowed five sacks. The Chargers have been […]

Tua Tagovailoa A Solid Streamer In Return

Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa already finds himself in streaming consideration amidst his first game back from a scary series of head injuries. Not only does the signal-caller represent a massive upgrade for the Miami offense, but he is also an intriguing fantasy option this week. Most notably, Tagovailoa is throwing passes to Tyreek Hill […]

Matt Ryan A High-End QB2 For Week 7

Indianapolis Colt quarterback Matt Ryan got back on track last week against the Jacksonville Jaguars. The 37-year-old threw for 385 yards with three touchdowns in the Week 6 victory. Ryan broke a single-game record for the most completions in a single game, which was 42 during Sunday's win. He got off to an ugly start […]

Baker Mayfield Doubtful For Week 7

Carolina Panthers quarterback Baker Mayfield (ankle) is listed as doubtful on the team's final injury report for a Week 7 bout with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Mayfield was able to practice in a limited fashion on both Thursday and Friday, so although a return is near, it is unlikely to be on Sunday. Even if […]

Mac Jones Limited In Friday's Practice

New England Patriots quarterback Mac Jones (ankle) remained limited at practice Friday. "I think I'm doing well. Just trying to get better and get my treatment, day by day," said Jones. "It does feel pretty good. I'm going to get my treatment right now and be ready to go." The 24-year-old has been sidelined since […]

Aaron Rodgers Has Pivotal Week 7 Matchup Against Commanders

Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers (thumb) will travel to Washington to face the Commanders this Sunday. He played through the injury last week and is on track to play in Week 7. Through six weeks, the reigning MVP has not finished inside the top 12 and is currently the QB20 overall in total fantasy […]

Patrick Mahomes A Must-Start Despite Bad Matchup

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes should be in your fantasy lineup every week, but there is a slight reason to be concerned this week when the Chiefs take on the 49ers. The 49ers allow the sixth-fewest fantasy points per game to opposing quarterbacks, in part because they're one of three teams to give up […]

Is Christian McCaffrey Playing in Week 7 After His Trade to the 49ers? Fantasy Football Outlook

The real and fantasy football world got rocked on Thursday night when Christian McCaffrey was traded from the Panthers to the 49ers. While there had been rumors that the running back was on the trade block, it was still surprising to see a team willing to give up the draft capital for him while taking […]

Davis Mills Has Some Upside In Week 7

Houston Texans quarterback Davis Mills hasn't had the best sophomore campaign, with under 250 passing yards in every contest and two multi-interception games. But if there's ever a time to consider him as a QB2 play, it might be this week, with some popular fantasy quarterbacks on a bye and Mills facing a Raiders defense […]

DraftKings CFB DFS Lineup Picks: Friday 10/21/22 - Week 8 Daily College Fantasy Football

We have another lighter Friday night, but as is the usual this time of year, they are both conference tilts. We don't have any power five teams in action tonight, but that doesn't mean the absence of good football. The earlier game features Tulsa in Philly to take on a Temple team that got embarrassed […]

Justin Herbert Will Look To Find The End Zone In Week 7

Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert attempted 57 passes last week without throwing a touchdown but should be able to bounce back in Week 7 against the Seattle Seahawks. For the first time since Week 2, the 24-year-old signal-caller did not appear on the Chargers' injury report in any capacity this week. Herbert's outlook would […]

Marcus Mariota A High-End QB2 Against Cincinnati

Atlanta Falcons quarterback Marcus Mariota has played well this season, averaging 15.8 fantasy points per game. However, the veteran quarterback has scored 18 or more fantasy points in half the games this season, including two straight contests. Furthermore, he has four total touchdowns and zero turnovers over the past two weeks after totaling five touchdowns […]

Russell Wilson Draws Questionable Tag For Week 7

Denver Broncos quarterback Russell Wilson (hamstring) is questionable for the Week 7 game against the New York Jets on Sunday, according to head coach Nathaniel Hackett. He will be a game-time decision. "We just want to be sure he can protect himself. That's the biggest thing," Hackett said. Wilson has been a limited participant in […]

Lamar Jackson Good To Go Against Browns

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (hip) practiced in full on Thursday and Friday and was removed from the final injury report for Week 7 against the Cleveland Browns. He will start under center on Sunday and is an absolute must-start at the position for fantasy managers. Jackson could be getting top wideout Rashod Bateman (foot) […]

Fantasy Football Warning Signals for Week 7: Jared Goff, J.K. Dobbins, D.J. Moore

With injuries and middling performances ravaging fantasy teams to start the season, it's okay to consider benching players who were relatively highly drafted (top-100) for this week and moving forward. This may be hard to stomach as you bench your QB1 or RB1 for a free-agent acquisition, but sometimes such measures must be taken to […]

Jared Goff A High-End QB2 In Week 7

Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff was embarrassed by the New England Patriots in Week 5, but after a bye week, several key Lions' weapons should be healthier. Amon-Ra St. Brown (ankle), while D'Andre Swift (shoulder/ankle) participated in a limited fashion. Josh Reynolds (knee) and D.J. Chark (knee) have not practiced this week, though. If St. […]

Dak Prescott Ready For Week 7 Return

Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said that quarterback Dak Prescott (thumb) has "looked the part" in practice this week and is all systems go for Week 7 against the Detroit Lions after fracturing his right thumb in the season opener. Prescott has practiced in full all week and shouldn't have any issues with his grip […]

Kenny Pickett, Pat Freiermuth Clear Concussion Protocol

Pittsburgh Steelers rookie quarterback Kenny Pickett, tight end Pat Freiermuth and cornerback Levi Wallace have all cleared the league's concussion protocol and are all on track to play on Sunday night against the Miami Dolphins in Week 7.

Ryan Tannehill A Low-End QB2 in Week 7

Tennessee Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill could have a wide range of outcomes in his second matchup with the Indianapolis Colts. In the first matchup, he completed 17 of his 21 attempts for 137 yards and two touchdowns. Tannehill often falls below 200 yards passing in a high-volume rushing attack, so his floor isn't high. That […]

Quarterback Starts/Sits for Week 7 - QB vs. Pass Rush Matchups for Lineup Decisions

Week 7 of the NFL season is here, and I continue to understand less and less about this league. In a spot where they should have blown up their opponent, Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers fell flat on their face in a 20-18 defeat. Meanwhile, the Atlanta Falcons caught the San Francisco 49ers […]

Trevor Lawrence Is A Viable QB2 Option In Week 7

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence should be considered a viable QB2 option in Week 7 versus the New York Giants.

New Orleans Saints quarterback Andy Dalton completed 30 of 47 attempts for 361 yards with four touchdowns and three interceptions in Thursday's 42-34 loss to the Arizona Cardinals. The 34-year-old had a big night, throwing for season-highs in passing yards and touchdowns, but threw three picks on Thursday. He threw a pair of pick-sixes on […]

Daniel Jones Is A Low-End QB Option In Week 7 Against Jaguars

New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones is set to face the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 7 and he's a low-end option in fantasy. The Giants lack weapons in the passing game due to injuries as Saquon Barkley and rookie Wan'Dale Robinson will likely be the two primary targets moving forward. New York hasn't asked Jones […]
