Week 7 waivers lean on rushing floors and opportunistic scoring. Jaxson Dart remains the top QB add, delivering a solid rushing floor even in a Broncos test. Dillon Gabriel offers Week 7 Dolphins upside as a streaming option, while Will Reichard should cash in on FG chances with stalled drives. Panthers defense emerges as a sneaky streamer against the Jets, and Isaiah Davis, Bam Knight, and Jaydon Blue provide flexible RB depth behind uncertain backfields. Miles Sanders out reshapes Dallas’ backfield, and Jets’ backfield intrigue grows with Breece Hall trade chatter and Braelon Allen’s IR status adding depth to the stash pool.

Week 6 NFL OL rankings from Pro Football Focus spotlight Denver as the top unit, signaling cleaner pockets and better run lanes for fantasy options. Indianapolis climbs to No. 2, while Seattle makes a big jump and several middling squads shift in either direction. The Chargers drop sharply, the Buccaneers and others inch upward, and the bottom remains treacherous for fantasy stacks behind sack-prone offenses. Use these shifts to gauge which offenses sustain higher ceilings in Week 6.

For fantasy managers, OL health and movement cue which offenses may sustain volume and efficiency, and which offenses risk reduced upside. Consider streaming targets behind rising lines or fading those with persistent protection issues, and adjust QB/WR stacks and RB workloads accordingly as Week 6 approaches.

Rico Dowdle gets a reunion spotlight as Carolina visits Dallas, with the Panthers back aiming to exploit Dowdle’s knowledge of the Cowboys’ D after Hubbard’s absence. Dallas seeks its first above-.500 result behind a healthy Prescott, but Lamb’s inactive status shifts targets and elevates backfield and secondary options in a windy Charlotte setting. The absence of several Cowboys blockers and receivers heightens risk but also creates upside for savvy fantasy managers who roster Dowdle, Javonte Williams, or alternative Dallas playmakers.

Arizona’s playoff hopes hinge on a road test with Indianapolis that could flip the season’s momentum. The blueprint leans on bottling Jonathan Taylor and unleashing a quick, air-first attack to neutralize Indy’s big plays while minimizing self-inflicted mistakes on early drives. A disciplined opener and fewer negative plays could keep the game within reach and keep the playoff push alive.

In this plan, Arizona must push tempo, protect the ball, and attack through the air when safe. If they can clamp down on the run and strike fast, the momentum can swing in a must-win window, setting the stage for a dramatic late-season push.
