The majority of fantasy football managers are likely very familiar with streaming kickers. It often makes the most sense to ignore the position entirely in fantasy drafts and focus on skill position players. It's usually better to draft defenses before kickers, too, because there are usually a handful of NFL defenses that stay elite for […]

Welcome to main slate of Week 7 of the 2026 NFL season, and to our updated fantasy football Week 7 start/sit recommendations chart for all remaining player matchups and all games. Today, we'll look at some tough Week 7 start/sit decisions like Adonai Mitchell, Woody Marks, J.K. Dobbins, Germie Bernard, and more to see how […]

The last Sunday in October is Week 7 in the NFL season, and it's the second straight week that features a 10-game slate for the main DFS fantasy football contests on DraftKings. While it's also National Tight Ends Day (unofficially), we're here to focus on the other pass catchers - the wide receivers. From the […]

Start 'Em, Sit 'Em for Week 7. This week, we've got four teams on bye (Bills, Jaguars, Chargers, and Commanders). If you're in need of some advice for this week to get in the win column, you're in the right spot. Week 6 was an interesting week. We hit on our starts but mostly whiffed […]

Welcome back to another edition of my RB matchups and another very interesting DFS main slate. We don't have my top matchup on the slate (Pittsburgh) because they are in France playing the early Sunday morning game, while both Rhamondre Stevenson and D'Andre Swift both already played on Thursday night (and had good games, too). […]

Welcome, RotoBallers, to our weekly Start 'em and Sit 'em article! This Week 7 matchups analysis and fantasy football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em piece will hopefully help you make winning lineup decisions every week of the fantasy season.  Week 6 saw some unexpected performances that we called in this article last week. Tre Tucker was […]

We have officially reached the midpoint of the 2026 fantasy football regular season, and the wide receiver market is growing thin. Bye weeks for four teams, along with injuries to key receivers across the league, will force fantasy managers to dig deep once again. Last week, we had some great Start Em’ predictions, with Jalen […]

Usage drives this Week 7 board. David Montgomery is out again, Ollie Gordon II returns from the Miami Dolphins' bye with rushing touchdowns in three consecutive games, and the Denver Broncos have given J.K. Dobbins 35 carries over their last two games. Volume can lie. Tony Pollard got a season-high 19 carries in Week 6 […]

Streaming tight ends is simply a part of the game for many fantasy football managers. Aside from a very select handful of players, the position is rife with inconsistency and simply bad fantasy scoring. You can get an edge if you look to matchups to give you an idea of which players might be good […]

Welcome back to our WR/CB Matchups for Week 7 of the 2026 fantasy football season. The Bills, Jaguars, Chargers, and Commanders have their bye week.

Week 7 of the NFL season brings another difficult set of lineup decisions, especially with four teams on bye and several offenses struggling to find consistency. This week, several matchups have particularly low projected point totals, including Browns-Titans (37.5), Dolphins-Jets (39.5), Colts-Vikings (41.5), and Chiefs-Seahawks (42.5). Those aren't exactly the games we want to target. […]

This article will identify the best D/ST to pick up for this week and in the weeks ahead.  Each week of the fantasy season, we identify the top defenses fantasy managers should target for the […]

Quarterback is the highest-scoring position in fantasy football, yet it's also not terribly difficult to have success streaming the position. It's very difficult to predict which quarterbacks will finish in the top 10 at their position ahead of time due to a variety of factors. Looking at strength of schedule is a great way to […]

We have reached Week 7 of the 2026 NFL season, and the early-season noise has started to settle into something more reliable, which is exactly why spotting the boom-or-bust options matters more than it did a month ago. Six weeks of usage, target share, and actual game scripts give you a clearer picture of who […]

Hey RotoBallers! As we turn the page to Week 7, it's almost time to set our next round of fantasy lineups. With four teams on a bye and many star-player injuries, managers may need to make tough lineup decisions to secure a win. In this piece, we will look at four players who could disappoint […]

No one can stop Malik Nabers in Week 7, and apparently not even J.J. McCarthy can slow him down the way he did Justin Jefferson. Nabers has been an absolute fantasy wrecking ball since returning from injury, and with the Giants continuing to funnel targets his way, he belongs in every starting lineup regardless of […]

Bucky Irving's Week 7 fantasy production should look a lot more like his Week 5 explosion than last week's frustrating performance. Don't let 46 rushing yards against Pittsburgh fool you. Irving's workload is trending in the right direction, his snap share is climbing, and a date with a Carolina Panthers defense that surrenders 23.3 fantasy […]

Michael Mayer is a tight end masquerading as a TE1 in Las Vegas, and fantasy managers need to start paying attention. Even with Brock Bowers commanding attention in the Raiders' passing game, Mayer is carving out a valuable role with strong efficiency, short-area targets, and recent volume, making him a legitimate Week 7 starter. Meanwhile, […]

Jordan Love might be the most underrated QB1 we’ve seen in some time. He’s putting up strong numbers without a consistent ground game, and with Josh Jacobs potentially back in the mix, Green Bay’s offense could be ready to take another step forward. Now, he gets a Detroit defense that has been giving up big […]

We are quickly approaching the halfway mark of the fantasy football regular season, a good time to review key statistics to predict future tight end success. In this week's article, we'll look at several statistics from two angles: raw and per-snap. Ultimately, the raw numbers matter most. If your favorite tight end averages the most […]

The Travis Hunter roller coaster hit another peak this past weekend, almost exactly a year after it last hit that high. In fact, it was on October 19, 2025, in London that Hunter confirmed all the hopes and dreams of his biggest fantasy investors by totaling 26 points in a massive loss to the Rams. […]

With another four-team bye on tap for Week 7 and many big legs returning to action after resting during the Week 6 byes, we've got plenty to talk about! Many chose to dump their bye-week kickers in place of other needs, which we agree with, but now there's a healthy waiver race to run. Between […]
