Week 7 waiver moves center on trimming dead weight and prioritizing hot backfields, with focus on the Chargers’ reshuffle (Vidal over Haskins, Hampton IR) and the shrinking upside in Ridley and Jennings due to offense and injuries. Juwan Johnson’s target share has cratered with Taysom Hill and Moreau returning. Jakobi Meyers looms as a hold for a potential Raiders move; Kyler Murray’s rushing floor keeps him in play despite injuries. Rookies like Travis Hunter offer long-term stash potential after the Week 9 bye.

Bottom line: cut Ridley and Jennings if you’re thin, hold Meyers for a likely trade, and lean into the Chargers’ backfield volatility for immediate value, while keeping Murray’s floor in mind. Week 7 is about opportunistic adds and surgical drops, not big swings—target clear paths to touches and improved offenses.

Week 7 fantasy waivers center on deeper-league targets across QB, RB, WR, and TE as injuries and byes reshuffle workloads. Jaxson Dart anchors the Giants as a dual-threat floor play, while Joe Flacco offers veteran upside in Cincinnati. Tyjae Spears and Kimani Vidal appear as immediate backfield boosts; Sterling Shepard and Tez Johnson provide varied upside for the Buccaneers. Harold Fannin Jr. and AJ Barner emerge as tight end stashes, with Luther Burden III poised for a post-bye breakout in Chicago.

With Week 6 injuries and multiple byes, the emphasis is on 40% rostered or lower players who can immediate-impact weeks. The article outlines clear, high-upside stashes and provides actionable routes for rostering in deeper leagues, highlighting how volatile each role can be and where to pounce for Week 7 and beyond.
