Fantasy Football: Week 7 position-by-position rankings

Share

Our goal with the Week 7 rankings: be more like the Broncos defense than the Cardinals offense.

Before we go position by position, some quick notes:

* The Browns traded running back Carlos Hyde to the Jaguars, who are without Leonard Fournette (hamstring). Adding depth is one thing, but a legit starter like Hyde is another. Fournette owners should be concerned. Root the issue keeps him off the field no longer than the Week 9 bye. On the Cleveland end, rookie Nick Chubb vaults into RB2 status. Must add in all formats if available.

* Jamison Crowder won't play for the Redskins Sunday against the Cowboys. Paul Richardson's "doubtful" tag might as well say "We'll see you in Week 8." The situation means more Maurice Harris and Josh Doctson. Neither should be in fantasy lineups, yet both offer some potential considering the Crowder and Richardson could linger. 

* Raiders running back Marshawn Lynch reportedly may land on injured reserve with a groin injury that at least should sideline "Beast Mode" for a month. Doug Martin becomes the early down back when Oakland returns from its bye. 

* Other injuries to track this weekend: Sony Michel, Julian Edelman and Eric Ebron.
