Week 7 DraftKings Value Plays: After a really fantastic Week 6, with battles such as Green Bay/San Francisco, New England/Chiefs and the Bears/Dolphins, Week 7 is finally upon us. With only 10 games on the slate during the 1:00 and 4:00 windows, selection will be absolutely key this week when attempting to make money in your fantasy lineups.
Week 7 DraftKings Value Plays
Joe Flacco and John Brown ($5,400, $5,700)
After a week in which Joe Flacco and John Brown weren’t really needed, they are brutally underpriced this week against perhaps the worst passing defense in the NFL. When games are competitive, these two players are typically the ones who step it up the most and when playing New Orleans, games are usually competitive.

Baker Mayfield and Damion Rantly ($5,800, $3,600)
Who? Damion Rantly played 88 percent of Cleveland’s offensive snaps last week, posting six receptions for 84 yards. This week he faces Tampa Bay’s dreadful defense and should put another solid outing together. As for Baker Mayfield, while last week was certainly a week to forget, he should bounce back nicely this week against the Buccaneers’ terrible pass defense.
Tarik Cohen ($5,100)
It’s about time we give this man some love in our series. Tarik Cohen has been tearing it up over the past two weeks and should continue to do so against a mediocre New England defense. I would advise lowering expectations a little bit due to the overall intelligence of the Patriots’ staff and its ability to write a game plan to counteract certain players, however, the matchup is simply too good to shy away from.
Kenny Golladay ($6,000)
People seem to forget just how good Kenny Golladay has been of late. Not having had a game under 10 DraftKings points, Golladay is the epitome of consistency at the WR position. Detroit will be slinging the ball a good amount this game and Golladay will be the main beneficiary.
O.J. Howard ($3,600)
Speaking of not dipping under 10 points a game (besides in Week 1), O.J. Howard has been a pleasant surprise this year. His matchup with Cleveland could be better, however, as a big-play threat he’s huge in GPP’s. Expect a good week from Howard.
Washington ($2,900)
Dallas this, Dallas that. That game was a fluke. The Redskins are a top the NFC East for the time being and they will give everything in their power to remain that way. The fans will be crazy and loud in this game, which should make it tough on Dak Prescott to move the ball effectively.
