Fantasy football start ’em, sit ’em: Week 7

We’re headed into the Week 7 weekend action in the NFL, and fantasy managers get a little reprieve with the bye weeks. Only two teams are resting, the Chicago Bears and the Dallas Cowboys, so that’s good news for setting lineups.

On Sunday, remember, we have the third straight weekend of games in London as the New England Patriots and Jacksonville Jaguars square off at Wembley Stadium. Believe it or not, due to some recent changes and an uptick in production, both of these teams have a handful of fantasy-relevant players despite their poor overall records, so be ready.

The waiver wire has been pretty active again, with players like wide receiver DeMario Douglas receiving plenty of action, from those aforementioned Patriots. Will we hear more about him? Maybe. We also saw teams make some big trades that could upset the fantasy landscape some, with the Buffalo Bills adding wideout Amari Cooper, and the New York Jets acquiring WR Davante Adams via trade, changing the depth chart and fantasy value for plenty of receivers in the AFC.
