Utilizing Fantasy football streamers likely paid off for many last Sunday, which is something to keep in mind when selecting Week 7 Fantasy football picks. Braelon Allen, Kendre Miller and Bam Knight each racked up 70-plus yards out of the backfield in place of injured starters, while Jaylin Noel's 107 receiving yards stole the spotlight from Marvin Harrison Jr.'s arrival in Houston. These performances caused a bit of a surge up the Week 7 Fantasy football rankings for these players, but can you expect similar outputs going forward?
That's what you'll have to consider before either adding these players from the waiver wire or inserting them into your Week 7 Fantasy football lineups. You'll also have to contemplate back-up options to the several players who are questionable to suit up such as Lamar Jackson (ankle), Saquon Barkley (hamstring), Jordan Mason (thumb) and Quinshon Judkins (thumb).
Before setting your Week 7 Fantasy football lineups, you NEED to see the Week 7 Fantasy football rankings from SportsLine's advanced computer model.
When it comes to ranking players, SportsLine's model beat human experts for the past several seasons, especially when there were big differences in ranking! That could literally be the difference between winning your league or going home empty-handed.
Now the model, which simulates every NFL game 10,000 times, has revealed its latest Week 7 Fantasy football rankings.
One player the model is high on this week: Ravens receiver Ja'Kobi Lane, despite him being on just 38% of CBS Fantasy rosters after playing in only two games. And a massive shocker: Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, the two-time MVP who ranks in the top 10 in passer rating, yards per game and CMP%, barely cracks the top 20 at his position this week!
The model is also calling for a SHOCKING quarterback you aren't even thinking about to finish in the top 10 of its Week 7 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 start and sit in Week 7, and which surprising QB could lead you to victory? ...
