Week 7 of the NFL season is here, and we get a 10-game SuperDraft main DFS slate Sunday. Let’s dive in and see who the best plays are for every position.
Let’s give it a look.
Top Quarterbacks
Matthew Stafford, Los Angeles Rams (1.25x score multiplier)
Stafford and the Rams host the Lions Sunday in what should be an exciting game. Stafford somehow has a nice multiplier of 1.25x and should easily continue his success. With just two games under 20 fantasy points, Stafford has the ability to go for three touchdowns or more and against this Lions defense who are currently allowing 20 fantasy points to opposing quarterbacks. The Lions also give up on average 252 passing yards per game.
Matt Ryan, Atlanta Falcons (1.4x)
The Falcons started this season off slow but have become more productive as of late. Ryan has now scored 29.02 and 23.58 fantasy points in his past two games on SuperDraft. He gets to face a Miami Dolphins defense who are allowing 23 points to the position while giving up 292 passing yards per game. Mix those numbers with the multiplier and that’ll make me want to load up on an Atlanta Falcons stack.
Top Running backs
Derrick Henry, Tennessee Titans (1x)
Henry is the only player worth playing at a 1x multiplier, and you know he’ll outscore the majority of players in the same position group. Henry gets to face the Kansas City Chiefs defense, which is allowing 133 yards rushing per game, basically what Henry is averaging on the season as he sits at 130 yards per game. He has also scored three rushing touchdowns in back-to-back games now with the possibility of doing it once again.
Leonard Fournette, Tampa Bay Buccaneers (1.55x)
This season has been really kind to Fournette, and each week he has performed better. Now, he does face a Chicago Bears defense that is allowing an average of 19.4 fantasy points to the position, but Fournette is used in both the pass and run game. Being utilized in both aspects and having a 1.55x multiplier, I love Fournette this week.
Top Wide Receivers
Calvin Ridley, Atlanta Falcons (1.25x)
This play does come with some risk as Ridley is returning to the field after missing the London game and having a bye week. Pairing him with Matt Ryan will be my main plan as he should get the majority of the attention on the field. Miami is giving up close to 37.3 fantasy points to the wide receiver position and with Ridley having the best WR/CB matchup on the field, I am running with it.
Terry McLaurin, Washington Football Team (1.4x)
Going with the gamescript of Washington will have to play catchup with Green Bay, McLaurin could be in store for a huge game. While he has had a decline in fantasy production, he has the best matchup on the field just like Calvin Ridley in Atlanta. Now there is risk with this play as Green Bay could dominate and have this game get out of hand to where no one on the Washington offense has a chance to do anything and fantasy production becomes nonexistent.
Top Tight Ends
Kyle Pitts, Atlanta Falcons (1.6x)
Pitts finally had his big game in Week 5 versus the New York Jets as he went off for 119 receiving yards with one touchdown. Now, coming off the bye, he fits in with the Atlanta stack of Matt Ryan and Calvin Ridley. While Miami doesn’t allow tight ends to abuse them, this game could become one that favors Pitts as Ridley will be the only other option for Ryan.
Zach Ertz, Arizona Cardinals (1.7x)
The debut for Ertz in Arizona is happening this Sunday and it couldn’t happen versus a better team. The Houston Texans have issues stopping tight ends as they give up the third-most fantasy points to the position. While Ertz hasn’t had the best start to a season, being in this Arizona offense makes him a threat and could be a beautiful thing while sitting at a 1.7x multiplier on SuperDraft.
