Week 7 Waiver Wire Rankings

Waiver Wire Rankings powered by FantasyProsECR (TM) – Expert Consensus Rankings

 

Kenyan Drake (RB – BAL): The Week 6 explosion from Drake was a stunning divergence from star RB J.K. Dobbins. Drake dropped a slate-breaking bomb, but can we trust this kind of role to persist as Dobbins gets stronger following knee surgery? I’m not so certain, but there’s plenty of reason to toss a modest bid in his direction.

Rondale Moore (WR – ARI): Moore is coming off back-to-back games with target shares above 20% (21.2%, 27.0%) as a full-time player. The Cardinals’ offense looks broken, but Moore can still be a solid WR3/flex for fantasy. With Marquise Brown (foot) now on the shelf, Moore can operate as the No. 2 complement to DeAndre Hopkins. Moore has two plus slot matchups over his next three games against Chandon Sullivan (85.7% catch rate, 129.0 passer rating) and Coby Bryant (68.8% catch rate, 148.2 passer rating, per PFF). I have no issues with being slightly more aggressive with your bid if you need a wide receiver desperately.

Alec Pierce (WR – IND): After back-to-back games of cresting 80 receiving yards, Pierce’s numbers in Week 6 (three receptions, 49 receiving yards) look disappointing, but he did get in the end zone. The Colts continue to pull shenanigans that keep Pierce from running a full complement of routes, with 76.6% and 70.6% route participation rates over the last two weeks. They have some weird desire to work in Mike Strachan despite Pierce playing well as his role has grown. Pierce is still worth flexing in Week 7 against a terrible Tennessee secondary that’s allowed the fourth-most receiving yards and the second-most fantasy points per game to wide receivers.
