Top Wide Receivers to Start in Week 7 of Fantasy Football
San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk is a locked-in WR1 for Week 7. Aiyuk, my No. 8 option, is another WR1 play for Week 7. The San Francisco 49ers playmaker is in the Top 14, in terms of fantasy points per game, among active wide receivers. He received a season-high 10 targets in Week 6 and now the 49ers could be without two of their top weapons in Christian McCaffrey and Deebo Samuel, because of injuries, potentially leading to more targets for Aiyuk. The 49ers will play the Minnesota Vikings on Monday in Minneapolis. The Vikings allowed an NFL-high 100 catches, the third-most receiving yards and sixth-most fantasy points to wide receivers through six weeks. Aiyuk should earn another 10 looks and total at least 80 yards. He also will likely get several chances to score when the 49ers reach the red zone against this generous defense.
Chris Olave is my No. 5 option for Week 7 received at least 10 looks in four games this season, including in Week 6, when he hauled in seven catches for 96 yards. Olave will battle the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 7. The Jaguars allowed the most passing yards in the NFL so far this season. They also surrendered the sixth-most yards to wide receivers and ninth-most fantasy points to the position. Olave, who is averaging the 15th-most targets in the NFL, should be very productive in this matchup. Look for at least 100 yards and a score from the Saints playmaker.
Drake London, who was also one of my must-start options in Week 6, should stay in your lineup as a high-end WR2 in Week 7. London is my No. 13 play this week, when the Atlanta Falcons face the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The Buccaneers allowed the seventh-most yards and fantasy points per game to wide receivers through six weeks. London received a season-high 12 targets last week, which he turned into nine catches for 125 yards. The Buccaneers just allowed 124 yards and a score to Amon-Ra St. Brown in Week 6. They also surrendered at least 100 yards to No. 1 wide receivers in four of their five games this season. I expect at least eight targets for six catches and 75 yards from the Falcons playmaker.
Jakobi Meyers is a Top 12 wide receiver in terms of fantasy points per game. The Las Vegas Raiders playmaker continues to get a ton of looks while playing alongside Davante Adams. Meyers totaled at least five catches and 60 yards in four of five games. He also scored in each of his last two appearances. This week, the Raiders will battle the Chicago Bears. The Bears defense has allowed the third-most passing yards and second-most passing touchdowns. I expect the Raiders to throw a lot in this game, with Meyers approaching 10 targets. That should result in at least 70 yards from the Raiders veteran, who is my No. 20 option for Week 7.
