Fantasy Football Dynasty Watch: Top College Fantasy Football Players Week 7 (2024)

Welcome back to another season of Fantasy Football Dynasty Watch, where I highlight the best and brightest performances from the college football week that was. We had some good games on the college circuit again in Week 7 with Alabama and Penn State surviving while Texas is on cruise control. We will introduce you to […]

Rhamondre Stevenson Still Not Practicing On Thursday

New England Patriots running back Rhamondre Stevenson (foot) is not practicing on Thursday after missing Wednesday's practice with a foot injury. His lack of practice early in the week suggests he could be trending toward missing the Week 7 game against the Jacksonville Jaguars in London. He sat out last week's showdown against the Houston […]

Brian Robinson Jr. Practices Again On Thursday

Washington Commanders running back Brian Robinson Jr. (knee) is back at practice on Thursday after logging a limited session on Wednesday with a knee injury. He missed the Week 6 game against the Baltimore Ravens. The third-year back out of Alabama has been excellent to start the season, scoring at least 13.8 half-PPR fantasy points […]

De'Von Achane Practicing Without Limitations On Thursday

Miami Dolphins running back De'Von Achane (concussion) is practicing without a non-contact jersey on Thursday, suggesting he is logging a full practice. The second-year ball carrier out of Texas A&M practiced in full on Wednesday, so all signs are pointing toward him being available in Week 7 against the Indianapolis Colts. Achane has not scored […]

Buccaneers To Go With "Hot-Hand" Approach At Running Back

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running backs Rachaad White (foot), Bucky Irving, and Sean Tucker could be set to work in a pure three-man committee, which will make fantasy football start-or-sit decisions tough for the three talented backs. Head coach Todd Bowles said the team will go with the "hot hand" approach on Monday night against the […]

Jonathan Taylor Not Seen At Thursday's Practice

Indianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor (ankle) was not seen on the field at Thursday's practice and has not practiced or played since suffering a right high-ankle sprain in Week 4. Taylor said that he was unsure if he would practice at all again this week, making it more likely that he'll miss a third […]

James Cook Practicing Again On Thursday

For the second straight day, Buffalo Bills running back James Cook (toe) got some work in at practice on Thursday. Cook was also limited on Wednesday for the team's walkthrough after he missed Monday night's victory over the division-rival New York Jets. With the 25-year-old's status still unclear for Week 7 this Sunday against the […]

Trey Sermon Returns To Practice

After not practicing on Wednesday, Indianapolis Colts running back Trey Sermon (knee) returned for Thursday's session. Sermon has operated as Indy's lead back the past two weeks with Jonathan Taylor (ankle) nursing a high-ankle sprain, and he could have that role again if Taylor is unable to return to practice this week. The 25-year-old found […]

Jonathan Taylor Unsure If He'll Practice This Week

Indianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor (ankle) is unsure if he'll be able to practice at all this week. Taylor said being able to do the necessary movements is the biggest hurdle for his return to game action for the Colts. The 25-year-old was unable to practice on Wednesday and has missed the last two […]

Is De'Von Achane Hurt or Healthy? Injury Update for Fantasy Football Week 7 (2024)

Miami Dolphins running back De'Von Achane took the NFL by storm last year, averaging 7.8 yards per carry and scoring 11 total touchdowns in a limited role. Fantasy football managers were expecting a potential top-10 fantasy RB season from the Texas A&M product in Year 2, but many factors have held him back from reaching […]

Broncos vs. Saints: NFL Inactives and Injury Updates for TNF Include Chris Olave, Rashid Shaheed, Derek Carr, Taysom Hill, Alvin Kamara, Pat Surtain II

Week 7 of the 2024 NFL season starts with a matchup that is supposed to be low-scoring, and there are a ton of injury concerns to pay attention to ahead of the Thursday Night Football AFC vs. NFC showdown. Sean Payton will be back in New Orleans for the first time since he exited as […]

If you're struggling with your flex spot this week, read our updated Week 7 TNF fantasy football FLEX rankings to assist your […]

Javonte Williams - Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks for Week 7 (2024)

BALLER MOVE: Sit POSITIONAL VALUE: RB4 ANALYSIS: Denver Broncos running back Javonte Williams is now another year removed from a devastating knee injury that ended his 2022 season, and while many analysts expected him to return to form, that hasn't come to pass. He's averaging just 2.6 yards per carry, the same clip that he […]

Courtland Sutton - Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks for Week 7 (2024)

BALLER MOVE: Start in 12-14+ Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: WR3/WR4 ANALYSIS: Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton is one of the more frustrating players to manage in fantasy football this season. He may have the lowest value of any team's WR1 this season, and has three games scoring eight or fewer PPR fantasy points this […]

Jaleel McLaughlin - Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks for Week 7 (2024)

BALLER MOVE: Sit POSITIONAL VALUE: RB5 ANALYSIS: Running back hell is a brutal thing for fantasy teams, and Denver Broncos running back Jaleel McLaughlin isn't likely to get you out of it. After showing off impressive explosiveness and quickness in 2023, the second-year-pro now hasn't been fantasy relevant. Tyler Badie registered the first 70 + […]

Chuba Hubbard - Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks for Week 7 (2024)

BALLER MOVE: Start in All Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: RB1 ANALYSIS: The Carolina Panthers face the Washington Commanders in Week 7. Panthers running back Chuba Hubbard is a good football player. The Commanders defense is a bad defense. Carolina has good run blocking. You should start Hubbard, it really is that simple sometimes. He's been great […]

Jayden Reed - Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks for Week 7 (2024)

BALLER MOVE: Start in All Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: Upside WR2 ANALYSIS: Green Bay Packers wide receiver Jayden Reed (ankle) likely had a down game in Week 6 due to an ankle injury that he picked up, but his efficiency has been ridiculous, and he's produced big games even without massive target volume. The scheme of […]

Evan Engram - Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks for Week 7 (2024)

BALLER MOVE: Start in All Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: TE1 ANALYSIS: Jacksonville Jaguars tight end Evan Engram went right back to his old ways, becoming a target monster in Week 6. After a disappointing debut and a four-week absence due to a hamstring injury, Engram is now healthy again, and was a key component to the […]

Zack Moss - Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks for Week 7 (2024)

BALLER MOVE: Start in 12-14+ Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: RB3/FLEX ANALYSIS: While Cincinnati Bengals running back Zack Moss had a rough game in Week 6 and coughed up a fumble, he was likely playing through pain in his ankle. He didn't seem to be 100% on the field. It'll be nice to see him recover, […]

Juwan Johnson - Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks for Week 7 (2024)

BALLER MOVE: Start in 14+ Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: TE2 ANALYSIS: While New Orleans Saints tight end Juwan Johnson is in line for increased snaps and usage with starting tight end Taysom Hill (ribs) designated as "doubtful" for Thursday, the entire Saints offense is reeling from injuries, and it may be tough for them to […]

It's officially trade season in the NFL, with multiple Pro Bowl wideouts getting shipped to new destinations this week.
