As we enter my Week 7 Wide Receiver rankings, we have had a few more casualties due to injuries. Emeka Egbuka is out with a hamstring injury, Puka Naccua is out with an ankle injury, and Garrett Wilson is down with a knee injury. Egbuka has been spectacular and Naccua is having a record-breaking year. So, it is tough to see these guys go down, especially if they are on your fantasy team. If you are hurting at wide receiver this week, then you need to see this week’s rankings.

Wide Receiver Notes
- Let’s start with Rashee Rice as my WR10 going against the Raiders. The time is finally here, and congrats to those who held onto Rice these six weeks. Rice is coming in at the perfect time. Patrick Mahomes is playing like an MVP despite not having a great receiving core. But now he will have his number one target again. This is also a great matchup for Rice as the Raiders are giving up just over 30 fantasy points per game to wide receivers. Start Rice with confidence this week.
- Next, I have Tetairoa McMillan as my WR18 going against the Jets this week. McMillan scored for the first time this season last, and not only did he score once, but twice. He would be higher in the top 15 this week if he weren’t going against the Jets. The Jets have been solid against wide receivers this year, only giving up 24.5 fantasy points per game to wideouts. McMillan also has yet to have a huge game. Don’t let the two touchdowns fool you, as he only had three receptions for 29 yards and five targets. The Panthers are definitely a run-first team. McMillan is flexing this week.
- Lastly, I have George Pickens as my WR7 this week. There is a chance CeeDee Lamb does come back this week, but even if he does, Pickens has made his mark in this offense. The Cowboys will likely be playing from behind all season, so that means they need to air the ball out. Pickens has six touchdowns on the year, and I expect him to score again this week against the Commanders. On the season, Pickens has 10 targets in the red zone and three touchdowns. That leads all wide receivers, while KaVontae Turpin has two targets. Jake Ferguson has been his only threat in the red zone with eight targets and three touchdowns. Regardless, Pickens and Dak Prescott have chemistry, and I expect them to continue even with Lamb in the lineup.
