Who to line up in Fantasy Football? – Week 7 NFL Season 2021

We arrived in mid-October with our Fantasy Football leagues this NFL 2021 Season and that is why we leave you the players that you must line up for week 7, the famous Star’t em that can not be missing in our weekly roster planning.

Remember that a large part of the leagues are won by being an active owner who moves his line-up and who adds players who give value to the team where others pass by, so here I leave you the players that I project so that they have a great week and that are going unnoticed.

It should be noted that I would not initiate these players above the players who are in the top-5 consensus, therefore, this section will not mention those star players who will obviously be in your lineup as long as they are healthy, such as QB Patrick Mahomes, RB Dalvin Cook or Derrick Henry, WR Davante Adams or TE Travis Kelce.

NOTE: Below the player you will find my specific point projections for this week. These projections are from the system (Non-PPR) and are conservative predictions.

Quarterbacks

Ryan Tannehill @ Kansas City Chiefs

Projection: 21 points

The Chiefs’ defense is the twelfth highest scoring player for QBs, so Ryan Tannehill may have a standout game. Last game we saw the connection with AJ Brown, although it did not look as fine as other days. He has been playing at a lower level than usual for two consecutive games, but against this defense let’s expect a game with many points

Derek Carr vs Philadelphia Eagles

Projection: 23.4 points

This QB returned to play as one of the best in the league last Sunday against a great defense such as the Broncos. He had four big pitches, one of them to Henry Ruggs in the back of the field and it is these types of plays that make a QB without a ground upside to survive. Line up Derek Carr.

Running Backs

Miles Sanders @ Las Vegas Raiders

Projection: 16.2 points

Last week he dominated with more than 80% of the team’s snaps, with more than 60% of routes and with 64% of carries. He has the whole role and never leaves the field. This is going to be the week where Miles Sanders explodes with more than 15 points against a running defense that is not as good as the Buccaneers.

D’Ernest Johnson vs Denver Broncos

Projection: 12.3 points

In week 4 of 2020 this player was the RB1 of the Browns for more than a quarter and had a formidable performance with 4.62 yards after contact per carry and 100% snaps. We will see something similar this week, since in the whole season Demetric Felton has not been seen playing as RB, possibly we will see the latter in a role similar to Cordarrelle Patterson. D’Ernest Johnson can have great value especially in the red zone.

Wide Receivers

Terry McLaurin @ Green Bay Packers

Projection: 16.3 points

Terry McLaurin has had low weeks where he just can’t get settled and high weeks where no one can stop him. This week he will return to his usual level after two days with an extremely poor level. The target share it has been there, it is just that it has not been found, and as soon as things click, we all know that it is a WR Top 10

Jaylen Waddle vs Atlanta Falcons

Projection: 9.8 points

Jaylen Waddle has had 5 and 13 targets with Tua Tagovailoa under the controls of this offense. His chemistry is real and this was shown last game when he connected with him for two TDs. It has had 25% of the target share of the team and this week against the Falcons is a juicy duel.

Tight Ends

Ricky Seals-Jones @ Green Bay Packers

Projection: 12.3 points

Here at Primero y Diez it was warned that it was going to be a Top 10 TE before anywhere else, so once again we must trust our boy and start it. Has a high target share, besides that he is playing at a great level. Maybe the matchup may not be the best, but Ricky Seals-Jones should always start with a volume of 95% of routes run.

CJ Uzomah @ Baltimore Ravens

Projection: 8.2 points

CJ Uzomah has a spectacular use, since it runs more than 80% of routes. The Ravens have shown that they suffer against the TE, so I can assure you that you will have a great game with the perfect combination of utilization plus matchup favorable.

Defensive

New Orleans Saints @ Seattle Seahawks

Projection: 9 points

They are returning important pieces for the Saints defense and it is a fearsome team that can win games despite the QB. Against Geno Smith they will have a feast of sacks on everything.

Patriots vs New York Jets

Projection: 8.7 points

Matthew Judon’s season is being spectacular, as are players like Dietrich Wise Jr. who are playing incredibly well in the pass rush. This Patriots defense already made Zach Wilson suffer once and will do so again this week.

Kickers

Nick Folk vs New York Jets

Projection: 9.1 points

Nick Folk is one of the kickers with the highest volume and will score points again with this matchup.

Mason Crosby vs Washington Football Team

Projection: 9 points

Mason Crosby will return to the level that we know him in this game that can be a shootout.
