FanDuel NFL DFS Lineup Picks for Week 7 - Daily Fantasy Football

Derrick Henry - Fantasy Football Rankings NFL Injury News, DFS Picks

Dennis Clausen highlights the top FanDuel NFL DFS lineup picks for Week 7 of the 2022 season, and some value sleepers for your daily fantasy football rosters.

Just like that, we are at Week 7, a day off for those on the Bills, Rams, Vikings, and Eagles. As a result, DFS enthusiasts won't have the luxury of relying on studs like Josh Allen and Jalen Hurts, two of the top three fantasy quarterbacks this season.

At the same time, Derrick Henry and Davante Adams will be back in action. D'Andre Swift, who has missed a few games due to a shoulder injury, may also see the field.

In this article, I will be providing you with my Week 7 daily fantasy football lineup picks for FanDuel. These lineups can vary from higher-priced players and elite options to lower-priced players and value picks on FanDuel. Be sure to also check out our weekly DraftKings DFS lineup picks and lots of other great NFL DFS articles and NFL DFS tools to help you win big! Also, feel free to give me a follow on Twitter @DennisMClausen. Let's get started!

Be sure to check all of our fantasy football rankings for 2025:

 

FanDuel Quarterbacks - Week 7 DFS Lineup Picks

Justin Herbert - vs. SEA ($8,100)

During the Monday night showdown against the Denver Broncos, Herbert didn't have his best showing, finishing with a whopping 9.42 fantasy points. Even worse, he threw the ball 57 times, but none of them resulted in a touchdown.

With the disastrous performance in the rearview mirror, the signal-caller will go face-to-face with Geno Smith and the Seahawks. Seattle has surrendered 1,470 total passing yards so far in 2022-23, so Herbert has a strong chance of delivering for fantasy managers.

Dak Prescott - vs. DET (7,500)

Prescott missed the previous five games with a fractured thumb on his throwing hand, opening the door for Cooper Rush to lead the Cowboys to a four-game winning streak before it ended against the Eagles.

Although head coach Mike McCarthy hasn't publically commented on who will start against the Lions, Prescott should reclaim his place under center. However, the veteran may be on a short leash, and he knows this, so he will have plenty of motivation to deliver in the meeting with Detroit, a team that has struggled defensively this season.

Also Consider: Joe Burrow ($8,300)

 

FanDuel Running Backs - Week 7 DFS Lineup Picks

Derrick Henry - vs. IND (9,200)

Henry has rushed for over 100 yards in two of his last three games. He's also scored at least one touchdown in each of his previous four games. He continues to break records and is ready to smash another, as he is only one score away from tying Eddie George's franchise record of 74 touchdowns.

Heading into Week 7, Henry will continue his quest of reestablishing himself as the best back in the NFL. Mike Vrabel knows the team doesn't have many reliable pass-catchers, so he'll need the former Heisman winner heavily involved to extend the team's winning streak to four games against an inconsistent Colts' run-stop unit.

Josh Jacobs - vs. HOU ($8,600)

Although the Raiders are 1-4 and last in the AFC West, Jacobs has been doing all he can to get things moving in the right direction. The 24-year-old didn't look too good in his first three games.

However, he turned up the volume in Vegas' two matchups before its bye, combining for 49 carries for 298 yards and an average of over six yards per carry. Jacobs also caught 10 of his 11 targets, and most importantly, he amassed three touchdowns. It just so happens that the Texans' defense has allowed the most fantasy points in the league to opposing running backs, giving Jacobs a favorable outlook heading into Week 7.

Also Consider: Austin Ekeler ($9,500), Saquon Barkley ($9,300), Leonard Fournette (8,400), Kenneth Walker III (7,300), Jeff Wilson Jr. ($6,300)

 

FanDuel Wide Receivers - Week 7 DFS Lineup Picks

Ja'Marr Chase - vs. ATL ($8,500)

Chase has been limited at practice during the week, but nothing indicates he won't be available against Atlanta on Sunday. The former LSU Tiger had one hell of a Week 6 performance against New Orleans. He finished that one by bringing in seven of his 10 targets for a season-high 132 yards. He also had two touchdowns, both occurring in the second half.

The Falcons' defense has given up 1,687 yards through the air, the worst total in the National Football League. The unit has also allowed opposing quarterbacks to complete 69% of their throws, second only to Green Bay. With that said, Chase has all the ingredients necessary to have another spectacular performance.

Deebo Samuel - vs. KC ($7,700)

What a discounted rostering cost for one of the most explosive players in the league. Granted, Samuel hasn't looked as potent as he did through the first six weeks of last season. Yet, Jimmy Garoppolo continues to look in the wideout's direction, so he could continue to be more involved moving ahead. '

Samuel had a season-high 10 targets in Week 6 versus the Falcons and two touchdowns in the last three weeks. The matchup against the high-powered Chiefs may be the highest-scoring affair of the week, which should mean good things for the 26-year-old.

Also Consider: CeeDee Lamb ($7,700), Michael Pittman Jr. ($7,500), Tee Higgins ($7,100), Allen Lazard ($6,600)

 

FanDuel Tight Ends - Week 7 DFS Lineup Picks

Mark Andrews - vs. CLE ($8,500)

Rashod Bateman has missed the last two games with a foot injury. His absence has made life more difficult for Lamar Jackson, who has thrown just one touchdown in each of his previous three games, along with four interceptions.

Luckily, Jackson has had Andrews, who has combined for 15 catches for 195 yards and two touchdowns with Bateman out of commission. The veteran missed some practices this week. Yet, coach Harbaugh indicates he'll be good to go in Week 7 versus the Browns, so get him in the lineup even if Bateman is available.

Also Consider: Travis Kelce ($8,300), Hayden Hurst ($4,900)
