Welcome to Week 7 of the fantasy football season! Also known as, “bye-mageddon!”
Among the running backs, D’Andre Swift is in the top 10 and should continue to put up good numbers in what should be a scoreboard scorcher against Miami. I have Jonathan Taylor ranked ahead of Zack Moss in the Colts backfield, but both have tough matchups against the Browns. Speaking of Cleveland, Jerome Ford and Kareem Hunt have both moved up with a plus matchup against the Colts next.
At wideout, Davante Adams remains in the top 10 but comes with a lot of concerns against the Bears. Brandon Aiyuk should post big totals against the Vikings, even more so with Deebo Samuel banged up. I’m high on Marquise Brown against the Seahawks, and Zay Flowers remains in the top 24 against the Lions defense.
At tight end, George Kittle dropped a few spots after last week’s stinker, but he’s still a top-10 option at a thin position. The biggest mover is Michael Mayer, who jumps into the top 15 as a result of increased usage and a solid matchup in Chicago.
Be sure to check back for updates … and good luck everyone!
