The Biggest Takeaways from OTAs & Minicamps for Fantasy Football (Feat. Zain Dhanani)

Week 7 is finally here, and Alex Cupps and Zain Dhanani has you covered with the latest NFL injury news and the fantasy football impact across every team. 🏈

Matthew Freedman and Zain Dhanani go game by game through the entire Week 7 slate, all 14 matchups with the Bills, Jaguars, Commanders and Chargers on bye, using spreads, implied totals, injury reports and coverage data to sort out who’s actually startable and who you’re better off benching.

A juicy waiver week, five young pass catchers taking over, and an Ashton Jeanty comp that Cupps is not going to enjoy.Dwain McFarland and Alex Cupps go through the Week 6 Utilization Report — snaps, routes, rush share, target share — and turn it into the specific moves to make this week, on waivers and in the trade market.They start with the upgrades, and it’s a receiver week. Germie Bernard is still available in half of leagues. Carnell Tate, Jalen Coker, Emeka Egbuka and Matthew Golden are all climbing. At running back, Jaylen Warren and Bhayshul Tuten are both holding steady, though Dwain has some concerns about the Steelers backfield. And there are open questions at tight end on Colston Loveland and Kyle Pitts.Then the downgrades, with Cam Skattebo sliding and a question mark on Michael Wilson.The back half is the biggest waiver section they’ve done. Two priority adds in Omar Cooper Jr. and Antonio Williams, with Terry McLaurin’s season-ending injury opening the Washington target share, plus a reminder that Jordyn Tyson is available in 52% of leagues with a likely Week 9 return. Then the should-be-rostered tier: Tyrone Tracy Jr. at running back, Jaylin Noel, Ja’Kobi Lane, Demario Douglas and Travis Hunter at receiver, and Michael Mayer as a startable tight end now with Terrance Ferguson as an upside stash. Then the short-term and handcuff tier with Roschon Johnson, Samaje Perine, Konata Mumpfield, Christian Kirk and Malachi Fields.They close in the trade market: a buy-low case on A.J. Brown, and sell-high looks at Ashton Jeanty and Breece Hall — including the comp Dwain has been sitting on.The Utilization Report is brought to you by Tenex.ai.
