Fantasy Football Rankings: Hayden Winks' WR Blueprint for Week 7

Fantasy football analyst Hayden Winks outlines the Blueprint at the WR position for Week 7.

Fantasy Football Rankings: Hayden Winks' WR Blueprint for Week 7

1. Hayden Winks provides his weekly rankings for Fantasy Football, focusing on wide receivers for Week 7. The column includes film notes, charts, and full rankings at each position.

2. Puka Nacua is ranked as the top wide receiver for Week 7, despite not being at 100% health. Nacua played three games last week without Davante Adams, who is out for about 10 weeks with a hamstring injury. In the past, Nacua averaged 24.6 half PPR points on 19.6 expected half PPR points while playing without Adams.

3. Jaxon Smith-Njigba is projected to have 89.5 receiving yards this week. The Raiders rank 12th in half PPR points allowed to opposing WR rooms, but Nacua has recorded 13 targets in that category. The Rams defense allowing the most half PPR points to the position (32nd) could benefit Smith-Njigba's performance.

4. Amon-Ra St. Brown is ranked as the seventh best wide receiver for Week 7, despite having had three straight off games. St. Brown commands a 65% WR target share against the Packers, who allow the second-most points per game on underneath throws to WRs. The Detroit defense, ranked first in implied team total, could provide a favorable matchup for St. Brown.
