Fantasy Football picks: Five bounce back players for Week 7
T.Y Hilton – If last week’s performance from the Chiefs receivers, specifically Hill, taught us anything, it is that Houston’s defense is very much exploitable. T.Y has had a pretty solid year, especially when you consider the change in the quarterback and the nagging injuries. In four games, he ha 200 yards, and four touchdowns, on 29 targets. That is a lot of production in a short amount of time. He is a great route runner, with solid hands, and awareness. He did put up a dud in his last game against the Chiefs, which was a match-up that we would normally expect him to do very well in.
He should do great this week, as he draws a juicy match-up with the Houston defense that has been struggling to defend elite receivers. They are giving up the sixth-most points against opposing wide receivers, and this game should very much be a shootout. The Colts defense has been average, and Watson is on fire for Houston.
That means Indy will have to throw the ball early and often in order to keep up with this high powered Texan offense. This will only benefit Hilton, as the favorite target of young quarterback Jacoby Brissett, who has been looking down the field for T.Y on every chance he gets. Hilton has a very similar skill set compared to Hill, who was burning Houston on the deep ball very often last week. They are best extremely fast, running a lot of seam routes, and have the ability to make great plays. Hilton is in a prime spot to bounce back in week seven.
