8. DeVante Parker, Miami Dolphins

DeVante Parker is returning this week from a two-week absence. In his first four games, he’s caught 17-of-32 targets for 242 yards and a touchdown. That’s solid volume, and he should be stepping right back into it in Week 7.

Parker has a plus matchup against the Falcons burnable secondary. He’s a solid flex play, especially with bye weeks in full effect.

7. Amon-Ra St. Brown, Detroit Lions

We talked about Amon-Ra St. Brown last week after he essentially became the Lions’ number one receiver. He flopped relative to fantasy points, but he actually caught five of seven targets, which is encouraging.

I think things are only going up for St. Brown in this Lions’ offense that is in dire need of playmakers. He’s a risky flex play but he has upside to be a volume monster if he and Jared Goff can click. Against the Rams, who are 21st against the pass, this may be the week.
