Lamar Jackson won the battle of the top two fantasy QBs in Week 6, so now he shifts his sights to the new QB2 in
Baker Mayfield. Jackson still sits atop the QB ladder in fantasy football while the Tampa Bay Buccaneers have given up the second-most fantasy points to opposing quarterbacks. Over the Buccaneers' last three games, the total score between both teams has been 78, 66, and 49. With the Ravens' defense giving up big passing games, this game should turn into a shootout quickly. That means Jackson could have a huge game on the way in Week 7.

4 days agoAccording to NFL Media's Ian Rapoport, the Los Angeles Rams have received calls from teams regarding the availability of wide receiver
Cooper Kupp (ankle). Rapoport added that a trade for Kupp "would be complicated and multi-faceted." Although the Rams aren't actively looking to move the wideout, things could change before the deadline if Los Angeles continues down a losing path. Kupp has played his entire career in L.A., amassing 585 catches for 7,213 yards and 52 touchdowns. For now, he remains questionable for Sunday's clash with the Las Vegas Raiders.

Chase McLaughlin has continued to be one of the most consistent options at his position this season. McLaughlin has connected on all 11 of his field goal attempts and missed just one PAT in 20 attempts. The Bucs continue to march down the field and give McLaughlin plenty of chances. He should continue getting opportunities in what looks like a possible shootout with the Baltimore Ravens. Fantasy managers in need of a kicker should look towards McLaughlin this weekend.

Kyler Murray is a low-end fantasy quarterback start for Week 7. The Cardinals will host the Los Angeles Chargers in a pivotal game on Monday night. The Cardinals' offense is coming off a sloppy outing in Green Bay. However, Murray still had a decent game, completing 22-of-32 passes for 214 yards and a touchdown. The Cardinals' offense has been streaky this season, and if they can find some consistency, they could have real fantasy upside. Cardinals wide receivers
Marvin Harrison Jr. (concussion) and
Michael Wilson (ankle) appear to be playing, so the Cardinals' playmakers should be at full strength. The Chargers' defense ranks sixth against quarterbacks in fantasy, presenting a tough matchup. Murray's rushing upside still makes him a likely starter and a low-end QB1 for fantasy managers.

4 days agoTampa Bay Buccaneers tight end
Cade Otton has picked up his performance over the last few weeks. Otton hauled in two of his six targets for 15 yards and a touchdown in the win over the New Orleans Saints last week. The touchdown helped salvage his fantasy value, but the six targets is nice to see. In fact, Otton has seen six of more targets in each of the last four games. He heads into a favorable matchup against the Baltimore Ravens defense. A defensive unit that has struggled to contain the pass this season. Otton could be worth a look as a TE2 for desperate fantasy managers in Week 7.

4 days agoThe Los Angeles Chargers defense will look to keep rolling in a Week 7 Monday Night Football game against the Arizona Cardinals. The Bolts defense has been solid this season, finishing as a top-12 fantasy defense in all but one game so far. In Week 6, they had a shutout going into the fourth quarter before playing a slightly softer game that ended up with 16 points for the Broncos in the final 15 minutes of the game. The Cardinals have been a mostly solid offensive team this season, but the Chargers defense is still a top-12 option heading into the weekend. They had two sacks, a pick, and a fumble recovery in Week 6.

4 days agoTampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver
Chris Godwin is coming off his best performance of the season. Last week, Godwin hauled in 11 receptions for 125 yards and two touchdowns in the win over the New Orleans Saints. It was season highs across the board for the veteran wideout who has been fantastic since his move back to the slot. The expectation is that Godwin will remain a focal point in the passing game this weekend against the Baltimore Ravens. A defense that has struggled to contain the passing attack early on this year. Godwin has done enough to be plugged in as a WR1 for this Week 7 contest.

4 days agoLos Angeles Chargers kicker
Cameron Dicker is set for another solid game in a Week 7 Monday Night Football game against the Arizona Cardinals. The Chargers haven't really been doing much on offense this season so far, but Dicker has been a top-15 kicker three times already. He's coming off an overall K6 finish in Week 6, kicking three field goals and two extra points. This season, he's missed only one field goal and one extra point. He's a top-10 option in Week 7, as the Chargers face a Cardinals team that has allowed 99 points in their last three games.

4 days agoLos Angeles Chargers tight end
Will Dissly (shoulder) could find himself fantasy relevant in a Week 7 Monday Night Football game against the Arizona Cardinals. Dissly hasn't done a ton this season, totaling 13 catches for 111 yards. His best fantasy finish so far has been a TE18 finish in Week 2, but with several Chargers pass catchers including fellow tight end
Hayden Hurst (groin) injured and not expected to play, Dissly could see more targets thrown his way by necessity. He's still not a TE1 option, but he should put up solid TE2 stats and has a decently high floor for his position.

4 days agoTampa Bay Buccaneers running back
Sean Tucker had a breakout performance against the New Orleans Saints last week. Tucker went crazy as he rushed for 136 yards with one touchdown in the win. He also added three receptions for 56 yards and an additional touchdown. This epic performance has earned him a role in the backfield committee along with
Rachaad White (foot) and
Bucky Irving. Right now, it's uncertain if White is going to suit up for Monday's game against the Baltimore Ravens. If not, Irving and Tucker would be the primary ball handlers in the backfield once again. However, the Ravens are a much stronger unit against the rushing attack. Tucker earned over 60 of his yards in garbage time last week. What he accomplished was impressive, but should be considered more of a fluke outing. Most fantasy managers should be able to find a more reliable option ahead of this Week 7 matchup.

4 days agoLos Angeles Chargers wide receiver
Joshua Palmer could have an expanded role on Monday Night Football when the Chargers take on the Arizona Cardinals. With
Ladd McConkey (hip) questionable and
Quentin Johnston (ankle) doubtful, Palmer could end up the top receiving option against a defense that has really struggled to stop the passing game. So far, Palmer hasn't done much, with just nine catches this season, but even on a heavy run-focused offense like the Chargers, someone has to catch the ball sometimes, and Palmer could be that guy. He shapes up as a better DFS or best ball option because the floor is as low as the ceiling is high, but this could be one week where Palmer is a viable bye week filler in deeper leagues.

4 days agoTampa Bay Buccaneers running back
Bucky Irving could be in line for another start this week. The Bucs are likely going to be without
Rachaad White (foot) who is currently questionable. However, it wouldn't be shocking to see the Bucs hold out White given how well Irving and
Sean Tucker played last week. Irving rushed 14 times for 81 yards and a touchdown in the win over the New Orleans Saints. The rookie back continues to impress each week. He has earned more carries and possibly a chance at the full-time gig at some point. Although, Irving won't have an easy challenge against the Baltimore Ravens on Monday. A defense that has done extremely well against running backs this season. Irving should be able to carve out low-end flex value despite a tough matchup.

4 days agoLos Angeles Chargers rookie running back
Kimani Vidal will look to keep his role in the Chargers backfield growing in a Week 7 Monday Night Football game against the Arizona Cardinals. Vidal started the season fourth on the depth chart, but an injury to
Gus Edwards (ankle) and strong performances from Vidal in small sample sizes have taken him up to second on the depth chart behind starter
J.K. Dobbins. Dobbins has a three-down skill set, so Vidal will spend most of the game on the sidelines, but he would immediately enter the high-end RB2 rankings if something were to happen to the Chargers starter. He has the kind of upside that makes him worth being stashed in most formats.

4 days agoLos Angeles Chargers running back
J.K. Dobbins got back on track in Week 6 and will look to keep it going in a Week 7 Monday Night Football game against the Arizona Cardinals. Dobbins got off to an excellent start this season, finishing as the overall fantasy RB4 in Week 1 and the RB5 in Week 2. Two down weeks followed (RB39 in Week 3 and RB36 in Week 4), but he got back on track after the Chargers bye, finishing as the RB12 against a strong Denver defense in Week 6. The Cardinals defense is solid enough against the run, but the Chargers have formed their entire offensive identity around the running game, so Dobbins is certain to see plenty of the ball on Monday night. He's an RB1 option with big time upside.

Baker Mayfield has been putting himself in the MVP discussion with how he has played early in the season. Although, Mayfield did run into some trouble during last week's win over the New Orleans Saints. Mayfield threw for 325 yards with four touchdowns, but he also threw three interceptions. Mayfield played better in the second half, but he won't be able to get away with as many mistakes against the Baltimore Ravens this week. The good news is that the Ravens have struggled to contain the passing game this season. Mayfield should be able to continue airing it out which should give him solid QB1 numbers for Week 7.
