Speaking of which, included below some running notes on relevant injuries, player news and rankings updates. These fantasy football Flex rankings are geared towards making decisions for your Flex spot (RB/WR or RB/WR/TE), which in most leagues consists of running backs, wide receivers and in many cases tight ends as well:

These rankings are a consensus from four of our lead fantasy football columnists - Nick MarianoPierre Camus, Brandon Murchison and Scott Engel - who have all analyzed the NFL matchups and game slates for Week 7.
