Fantasy Football Rookies to Watch in Week 7

Every week, this column will spotlight the first-year players who are ripe for a breakout performance. Often, rookies can provide some of the most value as under-the-radar options.

Week 7 Defense (DEF) Streamers and Starts - 2020 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings

We had some surprise defenses crack the top-10 in Week 6 with the Atlanta Falcons picking off Kirk Cousins seemingly at will and the Tampa Bay Bucs easily handling Aaron Rodgers and the Packers. Even with that, we were able to get six of the top-10 defensive units, but the Indianapolis Colts may be showing […]

Re-Evaluating the Rookie Running Back Class of 2020

We're six weeks into the 2020 NFL season and are starting to get some good ideas of what usage patterns are looking like. Which means we probably have enough data now to start to re-evaluate where certain players stand in relation to other players. For example, we've got a better idea of how this year's […]

Chris Herndon Risky Option In Week 7

New York Jets tight end Chris Herndon was expected to have a fairly significant role in the offense this season. However, he has recorded seven receptions since the his six reception performance in the season opener. Last week, Herndon was not targeted once during the loss to the Miami Dolphins. It's unclear why the Jets […]

Braxton Berrios Avoidable Versus Bills

New York Jets wide receiver Braxton Berrios put together two strong weeks in the beginning of the season, but hasn't done much since then. Last week, Berrios caught one of his three targets for 18 yards in the loss to the Miami Dolphins. At this point, Berrios isn't going to have much fantasy value with […]

Jeff Smith Sees Rapid Decline In Value

New York Jets wide receiver Jeff Smith saw 20 total targets over a two week period, but was only able to haul in 10 of them. He saw an increased workload with Breshad Perriman (ankle) sidelined. However, last week Perriman returned, which means Smith saw his workload decrease heavily. Smith saw four targets and he […]

Denzel Mims Might Suit Up Versus Bills

New York Jets wide receiver Denzel Mims (hamstring) could actually suit up for his NFL debut this week against the Buffalo Bills. The young wideout has been battling a hamstring issue all season, but appears close to getting back on the field. It's unclear what kind of role he'll have in this offense. Mims is […]

Breshad Perriman Carries Low-End Flex Value

New York Jets wide receiver Breshad Perriman (ankle) was able to practice on Thursday without any issues. He returned last week against the Miami Dolphins and finished with four receptions for 62 yards. The fact that Perriman saw eight targets last week is a good sign for his fantasy value. Sadly, there isn't anyone on […]

Jamison Crowder Banged Up Heading Into Week 7

New York Jets wide receiver Jamison Crowder (groin) was not able to suit up for Thursday's practice. It is possible that the team has limited Crowder's reps because he's not feeling 100 percent healthy. Crowder has seen 46 targets in four games this season and is the only form of life on this Jets offense. […]

La'Mical Perine Expected To See Increased Workload

New York Jets running back La'Mical Perine was expected to have a larger role in the backfield after the departure of Le'Veon Bell. However, veteran Frank Gore has been asked to do most of the heavy lifting in the running game. Head coach Adam Gase did mention that he wants to get Perine more carries […]

Sam Darnold Expected To Start Against Bills

New York Jets quarterback Sam Darnold (shoulder) will start in Week 7 against the Bills, barring a setback in practice on Friday, according to a source. Darnold has been limited in practice this week, but it looks like he'll make his return after a two-game absence for the winless Jets. Buffalo's defense hasn't been nearly […]

Frank Gore Is Tough To Trust

New York Jets running back Frank Gore has taken over the lead-back duties with the departure of Le'Veon Bell. The veteran back has done what he can, but the Jets offensive line doesn't give him much help. He saw 11 carries for 46 yards against the Miami Dolphins last week. Gore is expected to have […]

Joe Flacco Avoidable In Week 7

New York Jets quarterback Joe Flacco has started each of the last two games with Sam Darnold (shoulder) sidelined. The veteran quarterback has not been able to do much of anything in his two starts. Luckily, Darnold was practicing on a limited basis on Wednesday, so hopefully he can suit up here. Flacco has not […]

Sam Darnold A Lousy Option Against Bills

New York Jets quarterback Sam Darnold (shoulder) was able to practice on a limited basis on Wednesday. That's a good sign that Darnold could return against the Buffalo Bills in Week 7. He has missed each of the last two games with an AC joint sprain. Veteran Joe Flacco has looked horrendous as the starter, […]
