Jeff Wilson Jr. Reverts To Backup RB

San Francisco 49ers running back Jeff Wilson Jr. will return to the backup role in San Francisco and does not have any fantasy value now that Christian McCaffrey has joined the team. The 26-year-old figures to retain a role in the backfield in Week 7, in which the 49ers host the Chiefs, but it is […]

Christian McCaffrey Appears To Have Upgrade On 49ers

San Francisco 49ers running back Christian McCaffrey would make his 49ers debut against the Kansas City Chiefs in his new home stadium if he plays in Week 7. The late Thursday night trade between the Panthers and 49ers lands the No. 4 fantasy RB in a much more productive offense. It looks like an upgrade […]

49ers Defense Faces No. 1 Scoring Offense

The San Francisco 49ers defense faces the high-octane Kansas City Chiefs offense in Week 7. The Chiefs are the No. 1 scoring offense all season long and in the past three game average. They are careful with the football, too, giving the ball away less frequently than all but four teams. This tough matchup is […]

Brandon Aiyuk A Flex Option In Week 7

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk has a home game against the shaky Kansas City Chiefs pass defense in Week 7. The Chiefs rank in the bottom 10 in terms of both passing yards allowed per game and estimated points allowed on passing plays. Aiyuk is coming off one of the best showings of […]

Deebo Samuel Seeing Fewer Carries, More Receiving Yds

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Deebo Samuel has a home game against the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 7. The Chiefs are allowing the 14th-most total yards per game and the sixth-most yards through the air. Samuel is coming off a 79-yard receiving game and a 115-yard game three weeks ago. He is averaging 71.8 […]

Jimmy Garoppolo A Possible QB1 In Week 7

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo has a home game against the spotty Kansas City Chiefs pass defense in Week 7. The Chiefs are allowing the sixth-most passing yards per game and have only made a single interception. Jimmy Garoppolo has finished as a top 12 fantasy quarterback the past two weeks, and he has […]

Bucs Defense An Elite Option Against Carolina

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers defense/special teams draw a favorable matchup against the Carolina Panthers in Week 7. The Bucs will look to bounce back against the Panthers after losing to the Pittsburgh Steelers 20-18 in Week 6. Carolina recently traded star running back Christian McCaffrey to the 49ers and will be without starting quarterback Baker […]

Ryan Succop An Elite Option Against Carolina

Tampa Bay Buccaneers kicker Ryan Succop has tallied at least six points per game over six weeks this season. The 36-year-old has been automatic this season, converting 15-of-16 field goal attempts while going a perfect 8-for-8 in extra-point tries. Sunday's game between the Bucs and Carolina Panthers has an over/under of 40.5, with Tampa Bay […]

Cade Otton Could Have Increased Role Against The Panthers

Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end Cade Otton could see an increased role if teammate Cameron Brate (neck) is ruled out for Sunday's game against the Carolina Panthers. Brate hasn't practiced this week and is trending in the wrong direction toward suiting up on Sunday. Otton hauled in six catches for 43 yards in his only […]

Chris Godwin A Borderline WR1 Against Carolina

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin was targeted a season-high 12 times in the Week 6 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers. He's had at least six catches over his last three games since returning from a hamstring injury. The 26-year-old draws a favorable matchup against the Carolina Panthers in Week 7, who rank 21st […]

Cole Kmet Still Struggling To Carve Out Role In Offense

Chicago Bears tight end Cole Kmet has posted only 10 catches for 116 yards through six games heading into the team's matchup against the Patriots in Week 7. Kmet was pegged as a possible breakout candidate this season but the entire Bears offense has cratered. The struggling tight end actually gets a favorable matchup against […]

Darnell Mooney Will Be Touchdown-Dependent In Week 7

Chicago Bears wide receiver Darnell Mooney is still looking for his first touchdown of the season heading into the team's Week 7 matchup against the Patriots. After a very slow start, Mooney has begun to make plays in a struggling offense, averaging 71.3 receiving yards over his last three games. But he has been shut […]

Khalil Herbert A Boom-Or-Bust Play In Week 7

Chicago Bears running back Khalil Herbert will try and provide a spark as the Bears change-of-pace back against the Patriots in Week 7. Herbert saw only seven carries last week but ripped off a 63-yard run and 74 total rushing yards. The second-year back has home-run ability from the backfield but the unquestioned starter remains […]

David Montgomery Brings Low-End RB2 Value To Week 7

Chicago Bears running back David Montgomery will have a very tough matchup against the Patriots in Week 7. Montgomery is averaging 14.75 carries in games that he has finished this season but will face a New England defensive front that is allowing the third fewest fantasy points to opposing running backs. The Patriots have not […]

Justin Fields Gets Tough Monday Night Matchup

Chicago Bears quarterback Justin Fields will have a stiff test in Week 7 when the Bears travel to play the Patriots on Monday Night Football. Patriots head coach Bill Belichick has feasted off young quarterbacks throughout his Hall of Fame career and his defense has picked off six passes over their last five games played. […]

Broncos Defense Has Potential To Impress In Week 7

The Denver Broncos defense is no doubt the strength of their team so far in 2022. They're limiting opponents to the fourth-fewest points per game (16.5) and the third-fewest total yards per game (290.3). But they are currently ranked No. 14 in overall fantasy points thanks to a lack of turnovers (three fumble recoveries, four […]

Brandon McManus Has A Tough Matchup This Week

Denver Broncos kicker Brandon McManus had a strong game in the Week 6 overtime loss to the Los Angeles Chargers, making all three of his field-goal attempts and his lone extra-point try. But he'll be facing a New York Jets defense in Week 7 that is allowing just 6.3 fantasy points per game to the […]

Greg Dulcich Not A Starting TE Option In Week 7

Denver Broncos rookie tight end Greg Dulcich made a positive impression in his NFL debut in the Week 6 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers and was one of the lone bright spots on offense on Monday night. The 22-year-old third-rounder caught two of three targets for 44 yards and his first career touchdown on […]

KJ Hamler Shouldn't Be In Starting Lineups Sunday

Denver Broncos wide receiver KJ Hamler should be far away from starting lineups for a Week 7 matchup against the upstart New York Jets. In fact, Hamler shouldn't even be rostered in 12-team leagues in one of the worst offenses in football through the first six weeks of the season. The 23-year-old speedy downfield threat […]

Jerry Jeudy Hard To Trust As A WR3/Flex

Denver Broncos wide receiver Jerry Jeudy led the team in targets (seven) and receiving yards (54) in the Week 6 overtime loss to the Los Angeles Chargers on three receptions. Most of his damage came on a 37-yard reception on a broken play deep down the field, and the 23-year-old hasn't really done much for […]

Rodrigo Blankenship Makes 50-Yard Field Goal

Arizona Cardinals kicker Rodrigo Blankenship made both of his field goal attempts and two-of-three extra point attempts in the team's Thursday night win over the Saints. The former Colt was solid in his Cardinals debut, making a 50-yard field goal on his first attempt with his new team. Matt Prater (hip) figures to be close […]

Cardinals Defense Scores Two Touchdowns In Week 7

The Arizona Cardinals D/ST came up big with two interceptions returned for touchdowns in Week 7 but allowed Andy Dalton to throw for 361 yards and four touchdowns in the process. The secondary wasn't all that impressive despite the two big plays, nor was their pass rush. They failed to record a sack on 47 […]

Courtland Sutton Looking To Bounce Back In Week 7

Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton is coming off his worst game of the season in the Week 6 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers, when he caught just two of three targets for 14 yards. Sutton still leads the team in catches (31), targets (49) and receiving yards (431) through the first six weeks, […]

Rondale Moore Catches One Pass Thursday Night

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Rondale Moore caught just one pass for 31 yards in Thursday night's win over the Saints. The speedster saw just two targets, as DeAndre Hopkins returned to action and demanded 14 targets on 29 pass attempts. When Robbie Anderson gets implemented into the offense, Moore should move back into the slot […]

Zach Ertz Has Rough Week 7 Outing

Arizona Cardinals tight end Zach Ertz caught just two passes for 21 yards on Thursday night, as Kyler Murray was limited to just 29 pass attempts. DeAndre Hopkins dominated the target share numbers in this one, so this may be a sign that Ertz could see his usage dip now that Murray's favorite target is […]

Latavius Murray A Shaky Starting Option In Week 7

Denver Broncos running back Latavius Murray surprisingly led the team's backfield in the Week 6 overtime loss to the Los Angeles Chargers in his debut with the Broncos when he carried the ball 15 times for 66 yards. He also caught just one pass for minus-two yards. Melvin Gordon III was inexplicably benched after starting […]

DeAndre Hopkins Catches 10 Passes For 103 Yards In Week 7

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins wasted no time getting back into elite form, as he caught 10 of 14 targets for 103 yards in his season debut Thursday night. The three-time All-Pro looked excellent in his first game back from a six-game suspension, as he looks to have played himself into the WR1 discussion […]

Eno Benjamin Totals 113 Yards And Scores Thursday Night

Arizona Cardinals running back Eno Benjamin finished with 12 carries for 92 yards and a touchdown while adding four receptions for 21 yards in the team's Thursday night win over the Saints. Benjamin broke loose for a 45-yard gain on the ground, capping off an excellent performance with a fourth-quarter touchdown. As long as James […]

Kyler Murray Throws For 204 Yards In Win

Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray completed 20 of- 29 passes for 204 yards and a touchdown in the team's Thursday night win over the Saints. Murray added six carries for 31 yards, which helped his limited touchdown production in this one, but all in all, it was a mediocre performance from the dual-threat QB. With […]

Christian McCaffrey Traded To The 49ers

The San Francisco 49ers acquired Pro Bowl running back Christian McCaffrey from the Carolina Panthers on Thursday night in exchange for undisclosed draft picks, according to sources. McCaffrey will return to the Bay Area, where he played at Stanford in college. McCaffrey will take over as the lead back in San Francisco, basically rendering Jeff […]
