As we get into my Week 7 RB rankings, that means we are halfway through the fantasy football season. So, if you are on a losing streak, this is the week to break it. Week 7 does bring some difficulty with James Cook and Derrick Henry on a bye. However, there are some great streamers this week that jumped up in my RB rankings. Zonovan Knight and Kimani Vidal are two who should be at the top of your waiver list. If they are still available.

Running Back Notes
- Let’s start with Quinshon Judkins as my RB9 going against the Dolphins. Judkins came back to earth last week, only putting up 3.6 fantasy points. But he did go against the Steelers, who are decent against the run. But this week, he has one of the worst rushing defenses in the Dolphins. The Dolphins just gave up 124 rushing yards to Vidal last week and 206 yards to Rico Dowdle the week before. This will be a perfect bounce-back game for Judkins as he is the clear RB1 on the team. The Dolphins are giving up 24.4 fantasy points per game to RBs this year.
- Next, I have Cam Skattebo as my RB16 this week against the Broncos. Skattebo is getting all the work in the Giants’ backfield, but he does have a tough matchup this week. The Broncos have been solid against the run, only giving up 15.8 fantasy points per game to RBs. Skattebo is a touchdown merchant and will get all the goal-line work. But he is very touchdown dependent, and I would be wary of him going off this week. He is a flex start this week.
- Lastly, I have Tony Pollard as my RB28 going against the Steelers. I was high on Pollard this season, but it looks like he will be a bench piece the rest of the season. He is getting a serviceable amount of carries, but isn’t doing anything with them. He only has two rushing touchdowns on the season and has not broken 100 rushing yards this year. He is lacking in the receiving game as well, with only 11 receptions for 79 yards through six games. He has a tough matchup against the Steelers this week, and I expect the Titans to be playing from behind.
