Hunter Henry is just getting started, and if you’re still sleeping on the Patriots tight end, Week 8 might be the week that wakes you up. Four straight games with double-digit fantasy production, a growing connection with Drake Maye, and a Dolphins defense that struggles against tight ends? That’s the kind of matchup fantasy managers […]

Zay Flowers isn’t just a must-start wide receiver anymore. He’s making a legitimate run at the overall WR1 spot in fantasy football, and I’m not sure any matchup or quarterback situation can slow him down. The volume is elite, the big-play ability is undeniable, and with Lamar Jackson back, the ceiling could be absolutely ridiculous. […]

Hey RotoBallers! Another slate of NFL action is behind us, which means it's almost time to start setting our lineups for the upcoming Week 8 slate. With some teams off the board on bye and injuries piling up, managers may be forced to dig deeper to fill their lineups. Below, we'll look at some potential […]

Bucky Irving is proving that his recent fantasy football production is no fluke, and I’m buying into the role just as much as the results. After back-to-back explosive performances, Irving has established himself as a legitimate top-12 running back, and his consistent workload suggests there’s plenty more to come. Meanwhile, Jonathan Taylor managers need to […]

Matchups matter, and in Week 8, I’m putting that theory to the test with a quarterback landscape that offers some major opportunities—and a few traps fantasy managers need to avoid. Kyler Murray has a matchup worth getting excited about, and if you’ve been waiting for the right week to trust him, this could be your […]

Week 8 is here whether you're ready or not, and it brings yet another four-team bye that sees top legs like Ka'imi Fairbairn and Eddy Pineiro take a breather. Regardless of your attitude towards stashing a bye-week kicker away, many of us will be forced to dump them for other reinforcements across the roster. We […]

Week 7 of the NFL season closes with a Monday Night divisional clash between the Dallas Cowboys and Philadelphia Eagles. Decimated by injuries, the Eagles enter this matchup missing multiple star players, while the Cowboys have consistently underperformed en route to a 2-4 record. We will bring you Monday Night Football analysis all season, focusing […]

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 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. Wide receiver injuries may cause fantasy managers to consider risky options, so several updates will occur throughout the week as injury reports come in. For those unfamiliar, this weekly series […]

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 […]

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 NFL Pick'em Pool Picks for Week 7 of the 2026 NFL season. The midway point of the season will be here before you know it, which is crazy to think about! As we get into Week 7, we're able to determine which teams are the real deal and which ones can't […]

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 […]

Welcome back to our NFL Survivor Pool Picks for Week 7 of the 2026 NFL season! For anyone who isn't familiar, each week we give you our recommended Survivor Pool picks to target and also avoid for 2026 Survivor leagues.

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

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. […]

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 […]

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 […]

Despite the civil unrest in France, the NFL is currently set for an International Series matchup in Paris this week. To kick off Sunday's Week 7 slate, we will see the Pittsburgh Steelers meet the New Orleans Saints. The Steelers enter this one off two consecutive wins, and victories in three of their last four, […]

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 […]
