The Week 7 SuperDraft NFL DFS main slate is in the books, and while we had some strong plays, there were a few disappointing and non-productive players. Let us review our Sunday plays and start preparing for Week 8 of the NFL.
Top Quarterbacks
Matthew Stafford, Los Angeles Rams (1.25x score multiplier)
Stafford faced his old team in the Lions and made it look easy after a slow start. He finished hot, as he threw for 334 yards with three touchdowns. He was very efficient as he completed 28 of his 41 passes.
Matt Ryan, Atlanta Falcons (1.4x)
What a game this one became, as both teams started exchanging touchdowns. Ryan only held a 6.8% ownership as he went off for 28.62 fantasy points. He finished with 336 passing yards with two passing touchdowns. He did have some struggles, or he would have broken the 30-point mark, as he had one interception and one fumble for a loss.
Top Running Backs
Derrick Henry, Tennessee Titans (1x)
Henry finally had a “down” performance, but he carried ownership as he sat at 41.2%. He only rushed for 86 rushing yards, and his one score came from him throwing a touchdown. So Henry showed he can do it all, but he only finished the day with 15.40 fantasy points.
Leonard Fournette, Tampa Bay Buccaneers (1.55x)
All of Tampa Bay had a game against the Chicago Bears, and Fournette got in on the action as he finished with 24.8 fantasy points. He had one rushing touchdown and finished with 81 rushing yards. The downside of the day was Mike Evans having fun, and he and Chris Godwin dominated the receiving work, so Fournette only had two receptions for nine yards.
Top Wide Receivers
Calvin Ridley, Atlanta Falcons (1.25x)
Ridley’s day was basically nonexistent, but he did grab a touchdown, which helped boost his final score to 13.25 fantasy points. While the Atlanta Falcons battled it out with the Miami Dolphins, Ridley had short gains as he finished with 26 receiving yards off four catches.
Terry McLaurin, Washington Football Team (1.4x)
What a day. McLaurin came through huge for the SuperDraft crowd as he finished with 33.18 fantasy points. He carried some ownership, 11.7%. He finished with 122 receiving yards and one touchdown. While Washington wasn’t able to keep up with Green Bay, at least McLaurin made up for the pain with his performance.
Top Tight Ends
Kyle Pitts, Atlanta Falcons (1.6x)
After back-to-back strong performances, it looks like Pitts has finally arrived. He was able to finish with 163 receiving yards off seven receptions Sunday. Pitts was not able to finish the end zone, but he did finish the day with 34.88 fantasy points.
Zach Ertz, Arizona Cardinals (1.7x)
Ertz’ debut was a good one for Arizona Cardinals fans. He finished the day with 66 receiving yards on three receptions and found the end zone. Even with the Cardinals dominating the Houston Texans, Ertz showed up and proved he could help make this offense even more dominating.
