Fantasy Football Start em, Sit em: Darius Slayton, Dalton Schultz, Brandon Aiyuk (Week 7)

Are you seeking fantasy football start/sit advice for your week’s lineups? We’ve got you covered. We have our Who Should I Start tool to help you choose between two players and our weekly projections to look at every player in your leagues. Don’t forget to sync your leagues to MyPlaybook so you can access our Start/Sit Assistant to give specific advice to help you dominate and bring home the championship.

Here is our fantasy football start/sit article, including all the players we’re calling sleepers and duds this week. Below, let’s take a closer look at a few players to consider this week.

Darius Slayton (WR – NYG)

Darius Slayton can be the answer to this question every week. The guy is a wtf flex play against the Eagles. Why? We don’t know, we don’t care. Daniel Jones sucks, but he likes to target Slayton on those deep routes. The overrated Eagles are going to let Slayton slip open at least once this Sunday. That is an FFG guarantee!”

Dalton Schultz (TE – HOU)

Dalton Schultz has low-end TE1 appeal with upside in Week 7. The veteran has averaged only 5.1 half-point PPR fantasy points per game over the past two weeks, with Nico Collins out of the lineup with a hamstring injury. However, he had at least six targets in both games, ranking second on the team over the past two weeks (13). More importantly, Schultz has the same target per route run rate (25%) as Stefon Diggs and Tank Dell with Collins out of the lineup (per Fantasy Points Data). Meanwhile, he faces a Green Bay Packers team that has given up the third-most fantasy points per game to tight ends this season (10.8), including 10.5 or more in four consecutive contests. Schultz is the perfect bye-week replacement for Jake Ferguson or Cole Kmet.”

Brandon Aiyuk (WR – SF)

“One of the biggest fantasy disappointments in 2024, through six games, Brandon Aiyuk has yet to catch a TD pass while only crossing the 50-yard receiving threshold once. Missing the entire preseason in a contract dispute appears to have muddled the connection between Aiyuk and QB Brock Purdy. Don’t expect the situation to get fixed this week against a stingy Chiefs’ pass defense.”
