Week 6 was one of the strangest slates I’ve ever seen. Due to the erratic fantasy scoring, we had some of the most bizarre outcomes on the year. That’s pretty much how the article played out too, but that’s common when talking about GPP tournaments.

I still had a few lineups that flirted with big cash, and I will keep that momentum rolling here. With that in mind, let’s get started with the quarterbacks!

The players below are ones I’m looking at for GPP considerations for Week 7:

Quarterbacks

DraftKings

Joe Burrow (CIN): $6,900 vs. ATL
It feels like the fantasy community is considering Joe Burrow a bust, but this AFC Champ has been rolling recently. He’s scored at least 17 DraftKings points in all six starts this season, averaging over 23 fantasy points per game. We saw production like that from Burrow all last season, and he should keep it going against this atrocious Atlanta defense. The Falcons are allowing the second-most passing yards in the NFL.

Jimmy Garoppolo (SF): $5,500 vs. KC
Jimmy Garoppolo was stuck behind Trey Lance throughout the offseason, but he’s finally finding his footing in this offense. Garoppolo has seen his pass attempts rise in three straight games, scoring at least 18 DK points in back-to-back outings. That’s amazing from a $5,500 player, and we know he has the weapons to be a legitimate fantasy option. A matchup with the Chiefs is the best part of this, with Kansas City allowing the fourth-most fantasy points to opposing signal-callers.

FanDuel

Tom Brady (TB): $7,400 at CAR
Tampa Bay simply can’t run the ball right now, and it should allow Tom Brady to feast. The GOAT has attempted 40 passes or more in four straight games, averaging 18.4 FanDuel points per game in that span. That’s one of the best marks at this struggling position, and we have to believe he’ll only get better with Mike Evans and Chris Godwin getting healthier. Carolina is far from concerning, too, sitting 21st in total yardage surrendered.

Geno Smith (SEA): $6,800 at LAC
Geno Smith had a down game in Week 6, but it will keep his rostership percentage low. Not many fantasy managers trust him, but his 19 FD points per game should say otherwise. That’s actually the fifth-highest total among all quarterbacks, with Smith scoring at least 17 fantasy points in four of his last five games. That should continue against the Chargers, with LA allowing the seventh-most points in the NFL.

In Consideration: Dak Prescott (DAL): DK $6,700/FD $7,500 vs. DET
People will fade Dak Prescott in his first game back, but this is a huge opportunity against a disastrous Detroit defense. The Lions are surrendering the second-most fantasy points to opposing quarterbacks, and we know Prescott will be hungry in his return to action.

Running Backs

DraftKings

Josh Jacobs (LVR): $6,500 vs. HOU
The eye test with Josh Jacobs has me ecstatic. He has looked like a stud, collecting 298 rushing yards and 70 receiving yards on 10 catches and 49 carries over the last two games. He scored at least 33 DK points in both of those, scoring three touchdowns too. That’s what you usually see from a $9K player. Jacobs will likely go off against a Houston team allowing the second-most fantasy points to opposing running backs.

Jeff Wilson (SF): $5,800 vs. KC
Jeff Wilson had just 1.5 DK points in the Week 6 disaster, but that will keep his rostership percentage way too low. This is still the horse for the 49ers, playing in 60 percent of the snaps this year. He’s also getting almost every running back carry while taking over goal-line duties. That usage led to Wilson scoring at least 12 DK points in each of his previous four outings, and we expect that floor again here. We say that because the Chiefs own a 28th OPRK against opposing backs.

FanDuel

Joe Mixon (CIN): $7,400 vs. ATL
Joe Mixon has been grinding behind this offensive line all year, but the role is still there for him to be a stud. He’s playing in over 75 percent of the team’s snaps while establishing himself as one of the best pass-catching backs. That made him a top-10 running back last year, and it’s just a matter of time before he returns to that. A matchup with the Falcons could be the start, with Atlanta allowing the eighth-most fantasy points to opposing backs.

Latavius Murray (DEN): $6,000 vs. NYJ
Latavius Murray gets passed around from team to team, and it’s hard to understand why. The Broncos just signed him, and they rewarded him with 15 carries for 66 yards in Week 6. That was shocking, but it looks like Latavius will be the workhorse with Javonte Williams injured and Melvin Gordon in the doghouse. A home matchup with the Jets should also benefit him, with New York owning a 19th OPRK against opposing ball carriers.

In Consideration: Kenyan Drake (BAL): DK $5,100/FD $6,600 vs. CLE
Kenyan Drake was a monster in the absence of JK Dobbins on Sunday, and he’d be an elite play once again if Dobbins ends up sitting. We also don’t mind that Cleveland owns a 30th OPRK against opposing rushers.

Wide Receivers

DraftKings

Amari Cooper (CLE): $6,100 at BAL
People were panicking about Amari Cooper once Jacoby Brissett was announced the starter, but Cooper has been killing it. The former Cowboy has a ridiculous 28 percent target share, scoring at least 14 DK points in four of his last five games. He’s also averaging over 22 fantasy points per game in that span, which makes it shocking that he is still sitting around $6K. Baltimore’s secondary has been horrific, too, allowing the fourth-most fantasy points to opposing wideouts.

Devin Duvernay (BAL): $4,500 vs. CLE
You have to scroll far to find Devin Duvernay. This big-play receiver has been all over the map, but he’s the top receiver in Baltimore right now. They’ve been playing without Rashod Bateman, leaving Duvernay with a 70 percent snap share over the last two weeks. He also scored at least 9.1 DK points in each of his first five outings before a dud in Week 6, and that alone would be massive from such an affordable player.

FanDuel

Michael Pittman (IND): $7,500 at TEN
The Colts’ offense has been terrible at times this season, but it looks like they’re just going to feed Michael Pittman. The USC product had 13 receptions on 16 targets in Week 6, marking his second 20-point game of the year. That sort of upside makes him an elite GPP option, especially since he’s outside of the top-five in terms of pricing. Facing the Titans is the best part of this, with Tennessee surrendering the second-most fantasy points to opposing receivers.

Allen Lazard (GB): $6,600 at WAS
Aaron Rodgers has been looking for a Davante Adams fill-in, and it seems like it will be Allen Lazard. The talented wideout has at least eight targets in three straight outings, playing in over 95 percent of the team snaps in that span. Those are tough usage numbers to find from a $6,600 player, especially since Washington owns a 28th OPRK against opposing wide receivers.

In Consideration: Keenan Allen (LAC): DK $6,700/FD $7,300 vs. SEA
It sounds like Keenan Allen will make his return to action here, marking his first game since Week 1. That alone will keep his rostership percentage far too low, especially since he faces a subpar Seattle secondary here.

Tight Ends

DraftKings

David Njoku (CLE): $4,200 at BAL
This pricing is silly. David Njoku has been one of the biggest surprises at tight end this year, averaging 11 DraftKings points per game. Travis Kelce and Mark Andrews are the only tight ends averaging more, and they’re nearly double the salary. Baltimore is also a beautiful matchup, sitting 29th in passing yards allowed.

FanDuel

Darren Waller (LVR): $6,000 vs. HOU
Fantasy managers were distraught by Darren Waller’s Week 5 dud, but he should be ready to roll here. The big man missed the second half due to a hamstring issue, but he thinks he’ll be ready to go for this matchup. We’re talking about a player who’s top five in targets, receptions and fantasy points at the position since 2021. Yet, he’s not being priced like it. We’re also not worried about him facing a Houston team allowing the second-most yards in the NFL.

In Consideration: George Kittle (SF): DK $5,300/FD $6,600 vs. KC
George Kittle had his best game of the season in Week 6, collecting eight catches for 83 yards. That’s the stud we’ve been waiting to see, and you know San Francisco will have to throw to keep up with this elite KC offense. Not to mention, the Chiefs surrender the sixth-most passing yards in the NFL.

Defense/Special Teams

DraftKings

New York Jets D/ST: $2,600 at DEN
The Jets’ defense looked incredible against the Packers on Sunday. Stifling such that offense on the road tells how much this unit has grown, combining for 41 DK points across their last three outings. Denver’s offense has been dastardly this year, too, averaging a league-worst 15 points per game.

FanDuel

Tampa Bay Buccaneers D/ST: $5,000 at CAR
Not many people use the most expensive D/ST, but this is an excellent opportunity to take advantage. The Panthers rank dead-last in total yardage and will send out their third or fourth-string quarterback. That’s bad news against the Bucs, with Tampa ranked third on this slate with 9.2 FanDuel points per game.

In Consideration: Las Vegas Raiders: DK $3,300/FD $4,000 vs. HOU
The Texans have one of the worst offenses in football and will surely surrender monster fantasy points to opposing D/STs. It’s not like the Raiders have a great defense but being a home favorite after a bye against such a weak offense makes them an intriguing GPP option.
