Wan'Dale Robinson Week 7 Waiver Wire Pickups
Rostered: 55% of Leagues
Baller Move: Add in all leagues
The team's top wideout, Malik Nabers, suffered a season-ending ACL tear in Week 4, which paved the way for Wan'Dale Robinson to serve as the team's top pass-catcher for the remainder of the campaign. While he caught only three passes in this game from rookie Jaxson Dart, he saw five targets, which was a promising sign.
The following week, Robinson brought in five of his hefty seven targets for 30yards. His target total matched a team high in this game. However, this past Thursday, Robinson was able to finally emerge as the true WR1 in this offense. Even though he had the benefit of the No. 2 option, Darius Slayton (hamstring) sitting out as well, Robinson led the way, catching six of his seven targets for 84 yards and a touchdown.
Even if Slayton were to return in Week 7, Robinson has now seen at least seven targets in back-to-back games and is earning the trust of his rookie QB.
Robinson should carry high-end WR23 upside in PPR leagues and could push for WR2 upside given Dart's steady progression. He should be viewed as a priority target in all leagues despite heading into a difficult matchup against the Denver Broncos in Week 7.
Wan'Dale Robinson picks up 23.9 YAC for the TD, per @NextGenStats 👏

Hollywood Brown Week 7 Waiver Wire Pickups
Rostered: 40% of Leagues
Baller Move: Add in 12-team leagues
Despite playing in a crowded WR room, Hollywood Brown has been able to carve out a role in the Kansas City offense. In Week 1, Brown took the lead role once Xavier Worthy (shoulder) exited the contest early. In their loss to the Chargers, Brown would catch 10 of his 16 targets for 99 yards. Over the next four games, despite sharing targets with Tyquan Thornton and Worthy once he returned in Week 4, Brown still saw 6.0 targets per game and averaged 9.4 PPR points per game.
However, during their victory over the Lions on Sunday night, Brown led he way. He caught all four of his targets for 45 yards and two scores, en route to posting a season-high 20.5 PPR points.
Despite this dominant showing, managers should pump the brakes on the former first-round pick heading into Week 7. While he was able to carve out successful targets once Worthy returned, he will face tougher competition as top wideout Rashee Rice is slated to return from his suspension on Sunday. Rice is Patrick Mahomes' go-to option in the slot and was averaging 9.7 targets per game in 2024, before suffering an LCL tear.
While Brown could still hold value in deeper 12+ team leagues, managers in shallower formats should not consider targeting Brown on the waiver wire. His target share will likely decline due to Rice's return, making him very tough to trust on a weekly basis.
He is a fine stash option if either Worthy or Rice misses time later in these seasons, but he would carry risky FLEX value when both are on the field.
Cooper Kupp Week 7 Waiver Wire Pickups
Rostered: 65% of Leagues
Baller Move: Add in all leagues
The final wide receiver we'll look at in this piece is Cooper Kupp of the Seattle Seahawks. Despite playing alongside one of the sport's top wide receivers, Jaxon Smith-Njigba, Kupp has gradually found his footing in this new offense and is emerging as a weekly FLEX play.
Throughout the first four games, frustrated managers likely cut ties with the long-time Ram as he only eclipsed double-digit PPR points once during this stretch. His lone productive showing was in Week 2, where he totaled 16.0 PPR points. In Weeks 1, 3, and 4, Kupp never eclipsed 7.0 PPR points.
However, in Weeks 5 and 6, Kupp has begun to establish a connection with Sam Darnold. In Week 5, Kupp caught six of his nine targets for 59 yards. Then this past Sunday, during the victory over the Jaguars, Kupp caught two of his three targets for 40 yards and a touchdown.
While his target share was lower in this contest, Kupp was able to produce on his limited opportunities and punched in his first touchdown as a Seahawk.
Given that Darnold has played at a near-MVP level, averaging 274.0 passing yards per game with a 9:1 TD:INT since Week 3, the Seattle offense may be able to sustain both Smith-Njigba and Kupp. While Kupp is the clear second option in this offense, his role is increasing, and he will carry FLEX upside in PPR leagues going forward.
He is a priority target in all formats ahead of a Week 7 tilt against the Houston Texans.
First touchdown as a Seahawk for Cooper Kupp!
