With Fantasy football injuries continuing to mount, there are some intriguing options on the Week 7 Fantasy football waiver wire. With Rachaad White (foot) out, Bucky Irving had a solid day for the Buccaneers on Sunday as expected, but he still wasn’t the most productive running back on his team. Instead Sean Tucker, a second-year pro out of Syracuse, was featured heavily for Tampa Bay, rushing 14 times for 136 yards and a score while also adding three catches for 56 yards and a second touchdown.
Tucker is available in 99% of CBS Sports Fantasy football leagues, but will he continue to produce if White returns? Before making any Week 7 Fantasy football waiver claims, be sure to see what SportsLine Fantasy football expert R.J. White has to say.
White has dominated NFL picks for years, but he got his start in sports media as a Fantasy baseball and football analyst. He finished No. 1 among all experts for his draft rankings the first year FantasyPros tracked MLB expert accuracy on their site. White has continued to excel at season-long and dynasty Fantasy baseball and football formats.
Now, he’s revealed his top waiver wire picks from among the widely available Fantasy football free agents entering Week 7. You can see his top Fantasy NFL waiver wire picks and full analysis over at SportsLine.
One player White is advising Fantasy players to target on the Week 7 waiver wire: Packers wide receiver Romeo Doubs. After serving a one-game suspension, Doubs returned to catch two touchdown passes for Green Bay last week and 11.2% of his career receptions have now gone for touchdowns.
“Both Doubs (suspension) and Watson (ankle) were back in action Sunday after missing the previous week, and both caught three passes on four targets while reaching the end zone, twice in Doubs’ case,” White told SportsLine. “However, I like Doubs to have the higher floor, while Watson has the better chance at emerging as a weekly starter in Fantasy leagues if he can stay healthy.”
White is also strongly recommending Patriots quarterback Drake Maye. The No. 3 overall pick made his first career start last week and showed flashes of the incredible talent he put on display at North Carolina. He threw an absolute dime on a 40-yard touchdown pass to Kayshon Boutte at the end of the first half and that’s reason for optimism.
“The Patriots turned to Maye despite a brutal matchup and while turnovers were an issue, he did manage 243 yards and three passing touchdowns while leading the team with 38 rushing yards,” White said. “He’s a clear talent upgrade over Jacoby Brissett and could be faced with some high-volume days like Matthew Stafford as the Patriots defense looked like a shell of itself against the Texans.” See who else to target on the Fantasy football waiver wire at SportsLine.
