Week 7: Fantastic Banners: Baker Mayfield tops the list



[ad_1]


Broadcasting your QB, TE or D / ST starting is not the goal of fantastic football. But, if you're weak in a position where you only have to start a player, picking up fantastic usable weeks on the lead may be a beneficial process. In the typical formats of a quarterback, a tight end and a D / ST 12 team, most of your teammates will not wear – and should not – wear a QB or D / ST backup. The scarcity of positions leaves the line of derogation flush with weekly starting options plausible depending on their match and the scheduled course of the game.

In simple terms, since quarterfinal and defensive matches are easier to predict and their production varies less each week, sharp fantasy owners have an advantage in their leagues if they can spread their positions in "onesie" (usually their defense) better than their opponents.

With four teams waiting (Packers, Raiders, Seahawks and Steelers), the week in streaming is huge for the quarterbacks:

quarterbacks

Floor and ceiling: Baker Mayfield, quarterback, Cleveland Browns (82% available) against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Mayfield gets the dream match this week. Tampa has just sacked his defensive coordinator (Mike Smith) after his team authorized a legitimately historic production for enemy passersby. During the year, Tampa ranks last in the smuggler rankings (123.9), the last for the pass test (9.2), the last for the pass rate (56%), the last for the success rate of TD (8.1%) and the last in fantastic points awarded by return (0.66). Nick Foles is the only quarterback to have failed to rank among the ten fantastic smugglers against the Bucs up to now. Do I need to say more?

Floor and ceiling: Mitchell Trubisky, quarterback, Chicago Bears (88% available) against the New England Patriots

Do not look now, but Trubisky has had 670 yards, 9 touchdowns and an effective success rate of 5.7% above expectations (seventh best score according to next generation stats) in his last two games. Just out of Weekly QB1 and QB5 in Week 4 and 6, Trubisky enters Week 7 as a high-end QB2, with a likely shootout against the Pats. Matthew Stafford, Andrew Luck and Patrick Mahomes all recorded the 13 best results against the Patriots in three of the last four weeks. For more context, New England gives the eighth largest number of fancy stitches per QB.

Deep: Joe Flacco, quarterback, Baltimore Ravens (92% available) vs. New Orleans Saints

New Orleans' passing defense has been a motley mix year-round, but it's still a long way from a fantastic team. Over the entire season, the Saints have awarded the third highest number of crossing points, the fourth highest number of YPGs and the sixth highest rate of TD. Do not forget that this comes with games against Eli Manning, Tyrod Taylor and Alex Smith on the program. New Orleans has accumulated more than 20 passing yards, making it the fifth highest rate in the NFL. Joe Flacco is sixth in the number of deep-ball attempts per game (5.6) among qualified quarterbacks.

Tight ends

Floor: C.J. Uzomah, TE, Cincinnati Bengals (available at 98%) vs. Kansas City Chiefs

With Tyler Eifert (ankle) finished for the year and Tyler Kroft (foot) facing a possible surgery, Uzomah plays a decisive role in the sudden attack of the Bengals. In week 6, with no Eifert and Kroft in training, Uzomah set exceptional season highs (92%), followed routes (39) and goals (7). Uzomah is seriously on the low-end TE1 radar in week 7 against the troubled Chiefs – especially with Jimmy Graham, Jared Cook and Vance McDonald. Kansas City has allowed at least 70 yards to close ends in five consecutive games (Pittsburgh, San Francisco, Denver, Jacksonville and New England).

Floor: Ricky Seals-Jones, TE, Arizona Cardinals (available at 95%) against the Denver Broncos

The use of Seals-Jones has been promising all year, but it finally marked a fantastic day in the sixth week against the Vikings (5/69 on six targets). Seals-Jones (16) is third behind Christian Kirk (19) and Larry Fitzgerald (18) among the targets since Josh Rosen came in. Jermaine Gresham came back in the third week but the reconciliation rate of Seals-Jones with Gresham in the last month is still 71%. RSJ has seen six targets in back-to-back matches and now faces a Denver team that allows the third highest number of fantasy points per target to reach tight goals.

defenses

Floor and Ceiling: Indianapolis Colts (Available 97%) vs. Buffalo Bills

The Colts are at home and may beat a team of Bill who is now forced to start Nathan Peterman. Rookie Josh Allen (elbow) could miss several weeks, leaving room for the NFL's most rotational quarterback. Peterman dropped 83 times during his career and quickly dropped 9 INTs, twice fumbled, and been fired four times. In fact, Peterman's intercept rate of 11.4% is the third worst result of all time (minimum of 75 attempts). Colts have the tenth best sack rate (7.7%) and forced pass punches (4.4%).

Floor and ceiling: Arizona Cardinals (available at 90%) vs Denver Broncos

Case Keenum has thrown at least one interception in every game this year and has absorbed 13 sacks in his last four games, tied for fourth place in that period. Keenum is clearly struggling and now has to face the Cardinals' defense who blitz at the NFL's highest rate (42%), according to next-generation statistics. Arizona's aggressive pattern led them to third-place fantasy points allowed by fallout. Only Baltimore and Jacksonville have been more successful in limiting the aerial exit than Arizona. The Cardinals D / ST have quietly finished in the top ten fantastic units in three of their last four games. Lock and load the cards 'D'.

Deep: Detroit Lions (91 percent available) against the Miami dolphins

Thanks to the monster yards after taking Albert Wilson (138 yards) in Week 6, Brock Osweiler scored a career record of 380 yards in his start instead of Ryan Tannehill (shoulder). It was a total mirage. According to next-generation statistics, Osweiler have only tried five passes for more than 10 yards in the air against the Bears. He hurled the rock 44 times. Osweiler's TD / INT career ratio (35-29) is laughable, and the 6-by-7 slow setter also scored 11 career fumbles. If he has to start again at week 7 in place of Tannehill, fantasy managers should quickly turn to the D / ST Lions which are only outstripped by Baltimore.
