This is your DFS Minute for Week 7 in the NFL. Here are my lineups for Draftkings, Fanduel, and Owners Box for the Sunday slate of games.


May you find this week's lineups to be helpful in putting some cash in your pockets. Last week for our DFS Minute Week Six the Taylor Heinicke and Terry McLaurin stack was a mirage and sank our hopes and dreams. This week we are adding an Owners Box roster to the article. You can find it below our listed Fanduel and Draftkings rosters.

Quarterback

Matt Ryan, QB, Fanduel/Draftkings $7,300/$5,700

The Atlanta Falcons completed their bye week and have come out of it relatively healthy. Russell Gage has recovered and Calvin Ridley is back with the team after dealing with a personal issue. I like the Falcons matchup this week against the Dolphins and I expect Ryan to have a good game.

Running Backs

Derrick Henry, RB, Fanduel/Draftkings $11,000/$9,200

James Conner, RB, Fanduel/Draftkings $6,500/$5,600

I know Derrick Henry comes at a high price, but at this point, he is impossible to pass up. The Titans running back has three touchdowns in each of his last two games and has not run under 100 yards since week one. He may push for 200 yards this week. 

James Conner has been a bit of a surprise for the Arizona Cardinals. He may be somewhat touchdown dependent but the Cardinals have used Conner enough to take a look at him. Chase Edmonds’s game status is worth monitoring as the weekend progresses. It could be a much larger workload for Conner this week.

Wide Receivers

D.J. Moore, WR, Fanduel/Draftkings $7,700/$7,100

Jaylen Waddle, WR, Fanduel/Draftkings $5,900/$5,600

Sterling Shepard, WR,  Fanduel/Draftkings $6.500/$5,600

D.J. Moore has had no less than five receptions each week this season. Moore saw 13 targets last week against the Minnesota Vikings and dropped a touchdown. The Carolina Panthers have a quality matchup against the New York Giants this week. 

Jaylen Waddle scored two touchdowns last week at the return of Tua Tagovailoa. He was targeted 13 times and caught 10 of the passes. This week we are banking on Waddle continuing to be the primary target in Miami. 

Sterling Shepard returned after missing two games and was immediately the feature target for Daniel Jones. He was targeted 14 times and caught the ball for 10 of them. With the rest of the Giants wide receivers in question, Shepard should be the primary target again.

Tight End/D/ST

Cole Kmet, TE, Fanduel/Draftkings $4,900$3,000

Kyle Pitts, FLEX, Fanduel/Draftkings $6,100/$5,900

Green Bay Packers, D/ST Fanduel $4,100

Philadelphia Eagles, D/ST Draftkings $2,300

Cole Kmet does not jump off the page when searching for a tight end to play this week but he comes at an incredible value. One position comes at a sacrifice after spending a good portion of funds on Derrick Henry. This week Kmet is that guy. 

In the flex spot, we are going to bank on the Kyle Pitts breakout game we witnessed before the bye. The price on Pitts is a nice value for the matchup he has this week. Expect Matt Ryan to look Pitts way often.

Values and Honorable Mentions

Aaron Rodgers, QB, Fanduel/Draftkings $7,900/$7,500

Khalil Herbert. RB, Fanduel/Draftkings $6,000/$5,200

A.J. Brown, WR, Fanduel/Draftkings $7,000/$6,300

Calvin Ridley, WR, Fanduel/Draftkings $7,300/$6,600

Zach Ertz, WR, Fanduel/Draftkings $5,300/$3,900

I would not fault you for adding any of the above-mentioned players to your lineup this week. They all hold incredible value. If I were to try to switch it up at all, A.J. Brown is the player I would get in my lineup.
