FanDuel NFL DFS Lineup Picks for Week 7 - Daily Fantasy Football Targets Include Jared Goff, Cooper Kupp, Josh Jacobs, Kenneth Walker III III

Dennis Clausen highlights the top FanDuel NFL DFS lineup picks for Week 7 of the 2023 season, and some value sleepers for your daily fantasy football rosters. DFS options to target, including Jared Goff, Cooper Kupp, Josh Jacobs, and Kenneth Walker III.

It took over a month to happen, but there are no remaining unbeaten teams in the National Football League, with the Eagles and 49ers losing their respective contests. But San Francisco's misfortune didn't end there, as Christian McCaffrey, Deebo Samuel, and Trent Williams suffered injuries. Other teams were just as unlucky and couldn't exit the week unscathed, with Ryan Tannehill, Kyren Williams, Jimmy Garoppolo, David Montgomery, and Justin Fields also sustaining injuries.

On the other hand, Week 6 wasn't all bad for some. Joe Burrow and the Bengals picked up another win and will enter their bye with a .500 record. Additionally, Cooper Kupp had another quality performance, while the Dolphins offense continued to display its dominance in the massive win over the Carolina Panthers.

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 follow me on X @DennisMClausen. Let's get started!

FanDuel Quarterbacks - Week 7 DFS Lineup Picks

Jared Goff – @ BAL ($7,600)

Lions head coach Dan Campbell was recently asked to provide an update on the contract situation with Goff. Naturally, Campbell wouldn't provide details, although he made it clear he wants the signal-caller on the team. With Goff coming off his best year since being the top pick in the 2016 NFL Draft, who could blame Campbell? The 29-year-old hasn't shown signs of slowing down, as evident by his stellar performance in the win over the Bucs in Week 6.

Unfortunately, the Detroit backfield probably won't feature David Montgomery after he suffered a rib injury. At the same time, Jahmyr Gibbs and Craig Reynolds are also hobbled, meaning Goff could be throwing more often than usual versus the Ravens in a matchup that projects to be one of the highest-scoring contests on the slate.

Geno Smith – vs. ARI ($7,000)

The Seahawks and Cardinals will meet in an NFC West showdown. Although Seattle has proven to be a mediocre club this year, Arizona is among the worst teams in the National Football League.

As a result, Smith has a favorable outlook on Sunday versus a Cardinals defense that's surrendered the second-most points in the league in the last three weeks. He may also be one of the safest DFS choices at the position, considering many of the elite quarterbacks are banged up, potentially limiting their effectiveness.

Also Consider: Lamar Jackson ($8,000), Baker Mayfield ($6,600)

 

FanDuel Running Backs - Week 7 DFS Lineup Picks

Kenneth Walker III – vs. ARI ($8,800)

Most had assumed Zach Charbonnet would significantly lower Walker's ceiling this season. But it doesn't appear the backfield timeshare will be equally distributed any time soon, meaning Walker should remain the primary rusher.

The 22-year-old found the end zone at least once in each of his last four games. He also hasn't logged fewer than 17 carries during that span. Without question, Walker is a costly option in Week 7, although he could flourish against a horrendous Cardinals defense.

Josh Jacobs - @ CHI ($8,000)

Jimmy Garoppolo won't suit up on Sunday versus the Bears, so Aidan O'Connell or Brian Hoyer will start. Of course, neither man gives fantasy managers that warm, fuzzy feeling, and rightfully so. Although the Chicago defense hasn't looked the greatest this season, relying on a rookie or a 38-year-old still isn't an ideal scenario for Vegas.

That being the case, Jacobs should have the ball in his hands often in Week 7. He hasn't had the season that most had envisioned, at least on the ground, accumulating two touchdowns and averaging 2.9 yards per carry throughout his first six games. However, with Jacobs' potentially elevated workload, there's a good chance he'll have his first 100-yard game of the year.

Also Consider: Bijan Robinson ($7,500), Isiah Pacheco ($7,400), Rachaad White ($6,100), Zach Evans ($4,800)

FanDuel Wide Receivers - Week 7 DFS Lineup Picks

Cooper Kupp – vs. PIT ($9,700)

Everyone needs Kupp in their lineup for the Week 7 meeting with Pittsburgh, so fantasy managers need to do whatever is necessary to make it happen. He missed the first four games of the year with a bum hamstring. Yet, the wideout returned in Week 5 against Philadelphia and was on the field for 95% of the offensive snaps to finish with eight receptions (12 targets) for 118 yards.

He had a better outing versus the Cardinals on Sunday, unsurprisingly catching seven passes for 148 yards and a touchdown. Kupp looks as good as ever. Don't be left out in the cold in Week 7. Get him in your lineup.

Amon-Ra St. Brown - @ BAL ($8,200)

For whatever reason, St. Brown is severely underpriced. He missed Week 5 with an abdomen issue. Despite that, the wideout picked up right where he left off in Week 6 by catching 12 of his 15 targets for 124 yards and a touchdown.

He also logged 64 snaps, which aligns with what he's done all year. The Lions are dealing with injuries across the offense, so St. Brown should remain involved at an elevated level against the Baltimore Ravens.

Also Consider: Keenan Allen ($9,200), Stefon Diggs ($9,000) DK Metcalf ($7,700 - Questionable), Zay Flowers ($6,300), Rashee Rice ($5,600)

 

FanDuel Tight Ends - Week 7 DFS Lineup Picks

Sam LaPorta - @ BAL ($6,500)

LaPorta continues to be burdened by a calf issue and practiced in a limited fashion on Wednesday and Thursday. Still, he dealt with the same thing leading up to the Week 6 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, so he should be good to go in Baltimore. LaPorta is not only one of the best rookies this season, but he's also one of the best tight ends in the NFL.

LaPorta has been a top target for Jared Goff all season. The second-round pick also has 51 yards after contact, the second-highest in the league, and he has the most catches of at least 30 yards at the position. It's clear LaPorta isn't messing around this season and could be in for a big day versus Baltimore assuming he plays, especially with the Lions expected to throw often in Week 7.

Also Consider: Travis Kelce ($8,500), Mark Andrews ($6,900)
