Week 7 Fantasy Football Sneaky Starts & Sleepers
All but the luckiest fantasy owners at some point need to find the proverbial diamond in the rough—a waiver wire or bench player capable of putting up some points in a pinch. This weekly feature is dedicated to that part of fantasy football. It's not pretty, but it's part of the game.
I’ll put the defense’s aFPA (adjusted fantasy points allowed) rank in parentheses below. As of Week 4, we are now using only 2024 data for our signature strength of schedule metric, which makes it a great apples-to-apples comparison of each defensive matchup.
Last week’s Sneaky Starts featured Caleb Williams (QB1), Jared Goff (QB4), Chase Brown (RB19), J.K. Dobbins (RB12), Najee Harris (RB10), Tyrone Tracy (RB7), Tank Dell (WR17), Cole Kmet (TE1), Cade Otton (TE12), and Zach Ertz (TE10).
Let’s see who might surprise this week:
