Fantasy Football: NFL Week 7 rankings from the model that outperformed experts
Before setting your Week 7 Fantasy football lineups, you NEED to see what SportsLine's advanced computer model has to say. When it comes to ranking players, the model beat human experts in Fantasy football last season when there were big differences in ranking. And the model was closest-to-the-hole overall, meaning it best pinpointed where every player would finish each week. That could literally be the difference between winning your league or going home empty-handed.
Last week, the model was extremely high on Redskins wide receiver Terry McLaurin, saying he'd finish as a top-15 player at his position despite being started in less than 70 percent of leagues. The result: McLaurin recorded four receptions for 100 yards and two touchdowns against the Dolphins. Anybody who had him in their lineup was well on their way to a HUGE week.
Now the model, which simulates every game 10,000 times, has revealed its latest Week 7 Fantasy football rankings.
One player the model is high on this week: Cowboys wide receiver Michael Gallup, who faces an Eagles defense that's giving up the most Fantasy points to wide receivers. The model lists Hilton as a rock solid WR2 this week even though he's being started in less than 80 percent of CBS Sports Fantasy leagues.
And a massive shocker: Chargers wide receiver Keenan Allen, who's recorded over 500 receiving yards and three touchdowns this season, stumbles big-time and doesn't even crack the top 20. He's a player to consider putting on the bench.
The model is also calling for a surprising quarterback you aren't even thinking about to finish in the top 10 of its Fantasy football rankings! This pick could be the difference between winning BIG and going home with nothing. You ABSOLUTELY need to see who it is before locking in your lineups.
So who should you sit and start in Week 7? And which surprising quarterback could lead you to victory? ... Join SportsLine now to get Fantasy football rankings for every single position, and see which shocking QB comes out of nowhere to crack the top 10, all from the model that out-performed experts big time last season!
