DraftKings NFL 2022: Best daily fantasy lineup for Week 7

4 of 4

Tom Brady (12) of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers talks to tight end Cade Otton (88) after he is called offsides during the second half against the Pittsburgh Steelers at Acrisure Stadium in Pittsburgh, PA on October 16, 2022.Pittsburgh Steelers Vs Tampa Bay Buccaneers Week 6 /

TE: Cade Otton, Tampa Bay Buccaneers ($2,700)

After a scary-looking head injury to Bucs’ tight end Cameron Brate, Cade Otton is in line to be the TE1 for Tom Brady in Week 7. He already had one week as a starter, and he caught 6-of-7 targets for 43 yards — which is a good fantasy game for a tight end.

This week, Otton gets a solid matchup against the reeling Carolina Panthers and will be in line for another decently high-volume game as Brady’s go-to dump off target. He’s an intriguing option at his low cost.

FLEX: Breece Hall, New York Jets ($6,200)

It’s officially Breece Hall Rookie of the Year season. He’s been the driving force for the Jets’ 4-2 start to the season, and a pleasant surprise for fantasy managers who drafted him and remained patient while he took the starting job from Michael Carter. Hall is currently the RB6 on the year.

Hall takes on the Denver Broncos’ run defense, which has been decent this year, but Hall has proven to be matchup-proof. He’s a potential blow-up option at flex, giving this lineup three high-octane running backs.

D/ST: Washington Commanders ($2,500)

The Washington Commanders have been fantasy’s D24 this season, but this pick isn’t about how good they are; but rather who they are playing. The Green Bay Packers offense has been brutal this year, ranking 24th in points per game and 15th in offensive yards per game. They have no rhythm in any aspect of their game, and Washington’s defense can be stingy and scrappy at times. Look for them to blow up Green Bay’s defense and act as a sleeper defense this week.
