Fantasy Football, Week 7: High value plays for FanDuel
By Dylan Broady
Allen Robinson, Chicago Bears, $6,500
Robinson has been a fantastic addition to the Chicago Bears revamped offense. Through five games played Robinson has had at least 50 yards receiving or a touchdown. He has clearly made it known that he’s back as a top wide receiver option after his unfortunate season ending injury with Jacksonville. Robinson has been overlooked by many and shouldn’t be any longer after his steady high floor so far in 2018.
Robinson is one piece in a high-scoring Bears offense. Robinson’s low price tag this week was easy to jump on. We will take a look at his production up to this week so we can show you why he’s such a great high-value candidate for Week 7.

Through five games, Robinson has caught 24 balls on 38 targets for 281 receiving yards and two scores. His 56.2 receiving yards per game place him as a nice fantasy option each week. Robinson has also averaged 4.8 receptions and 7.6 targets per game. In Week 7, he will play the New England Patriots and their subpar pass defense. New England allowed Kansas City’s high-flying offense to score 40 points in Week 6.
Further breaking down the Patriots defense they have allowed a total of 379.3 yards, 268.7 passing yards, 110.7 rushing yards and 24.7 points per game. I’m sure former Chiefs offensive coordinator Matt Nagy will be paying attention to how his former team managed to put up 40 points.
Prediction: 75 receiving yards, 2 touchdowns
