Fantasy Football WR Rankings Week 7 Who to start best sleepers at wide receiver
Blog Article
Were approaching the midway point of the fantasy football regular season, and navigating injuries and bye weeks is inevitable for every fantasy owner. Although wide receiver is far and away the deepest position in fantasy football, a large chunk of the wide receiver pool is depleted with six teams on bye, casting a pall on our Week 7 fantasy WR rankings for standard leagues.Fortunately, it's not all bad news, as there were very few new WR injuries last week and we'll likely be getting one key receiver back from the IR. Still, there's no doubt plenty of fantasy owners will be digging deep this week, and they might have to rely on more boom-or-bust options than usual.With that in mind, let's break down our rankings and try to find Week 7's top breakouts and potential busts at receiver.MORE: With the Cowboys, Panthers, Texans, Titans, Jets, and Bengals on bye, fantasy owners must make do without several fantasy-relevant WRs in Week 7, most notably JaMarr Chase, CeeDee Lamb, Adam Thielen, Garrett Wilson, Tee Higgins, DeAndre Hopkins, and Nico Collins. That's a murderer's row of WR1s and WR2s.WEEK 7 STANDARD RANKINGS: | | | | In deeper leagues, fantasy owners wont have the services of DJ Chark, Tyler Boyd, Brandin Cooks, Michael Gallup, Robert Woods, and Allen Lazard.WEEK 7 PPR RANKINGS: | | | | | Tyreek Hill (@ Eagles in Week 7) returns to the top spot in our Week 7 rankings, facing a Philadelphia defense that entered Week 6, allowing the fifth-most fantasy points per game (FPPG) to WRs. Stefon Diggs (@ Patriots) is always a threat to end the week as the overall fantasy WR1, especially facing a Patriots defense that allowed plenty of chunk gains to the Raiders in Week 6.Davante Adams (vs. Bears) might not have his QB1 out there with him, but even with backup Brian Hoyer running the offense, Adams is capable of going nuclear against a lackluster Bears coverage unit. Expect a big bounce-back after a quiet couple of weeks for Adams.Cooper Kupp (vs. Steelers) hasnt skipped a beat through two weeks, while A.J. Brown (vs. Dolphins) has been an aDOT monster. Keenan Allen (@ Chiefs) could have a vintage performance against the Chiefs in another potential shootout between two AFC West foes.WEEK 7 FANTASY ADVICE: | | | For fantasy owners in need of viable bye-week or injury fill-ins, consider Kendrick Bourne (vs. Bills), Josh Downs (@ Browns), Rashee Rice (vs. Chargers), Rashid Shaheed (vs. Jaguars), Jameson Williams (@ Ravens), and Jaxon Smith Matt Moore Jersey -Njigba (vs. Cardinals). Bourne draws a challenging matchup against a stout Bills defense, but a pa s-heavy offensive approach plays into his hands in what's likely a negative game script. Downs is in a similar situation, but with fellow WR Alec Pierce dealing with a shoulder injury, Downs could a sume a high target share.Rice's role within the Chiefs offense is steadily increasing, as he has sleeper appeal in Week 7 and is a the rest of the season. Shaheed's big-play ability makes him a worthwhile free-agent acquisition in standard formats. Ditto for Williams. Smith-Njigba had his best game of his young career and looks to one-up his Week 6 performance against a struggling Cardinals defense.In deeper leagues, fantasy owners should consider Mack Hollins (@ Buccaneers), Jauan Jennings (@ Vikings), Trey Palmer (vs. Falcons), and Michael Wilson (@ Seahawks).WEEK 7 DFS: | | | Although the Browns' defense entered Week 6 allowing the FPPG to WRs, not many fantasy owners will bench Michael Pittman Jr. or Downs because of a tough matchup. We're not advising you to bench either wideout, but given how sound Cleveland's defense is, it won't be overlysurprising if either WR has an off game.That said, we'd be cautious to start Jerry Jeudy and Courtland Sutton (vs. Packers) in Week 7. Yes, Sutton had a solid Week 6 fantasy showing, but a garbage-time touchdown boosted his day, which is rather unsustainable Joe Jimenez Jersey .Josh Reynolds (@ Ravens) saw his role decrease with Amon-Ra St. Brown back in the fold, and with Jameson Williams becoming more of a factor within Detroit's offense, Reynolds' fantasy value in standard formats is slowly evaporating.Other WRs to watch in tough matchups include Gabriel Davis (@ Patriots), DeVante Parker (vs. Bills), George Pickens and Diontae Johnson (@ Rams), and Josh Palmer and Quentin Johnston (@ Chiefs).Among WRs on teams not on bye in Week 7, Zay Jones (knee) is the lone WR who could return to action after mi sing Week 6. Jones has some flex appeal in standard leagues, but if Trevor Lawrence's knee injury is more severe than we expect, Jones might be worth benching if he's active for Thursday night's matchup against the Saints.Thankfully, we mostly avoided the injury bug at the wide receiver position in Week 6, as Deebo Samuel (shoulder) and Pierce (shoulder) were the most notable WRs to get banged up during game action. For now, we've omitted both from our initial Week 7 rankings but will monitor their respective team's injury reports during the week to get a feel for their playing statuses.Additionally, fantasy owners should expect Diontae Johnson (@ Rams) to return from a hamstring injury suffered in Week 1. If we receive news that Johnson isn't on a snap count, he's worth starting this week despite a tough matchup.As usual, we'll update these standard WR rankings throughout the week, so check back for the latest player movement and analysis.Rank Player1 Tyreek Hill, Dolphins @ Eagles2 Stefon Diggs, Bills @ Patriots3 Cooper Kupp, Rams vs. Steelers4 A.J.
