Top fantasy football waiver wire pickups for Week 7
We avoided devastating, season-ending injuries to fantasy-relevant NFL players this week. Phew.
Still, some surprising performances caught us off guard — in good and bad ways — and some old waiver wire pickups were confirmed to be legitimate threats. Chase Claypool and Travis Fulgham, the two biggest additions at wide receiver last week each benefitted their new fantasy owners with strong performances. Claypool totaled 81 yards and had a rushing touchdown for the second consecutive game, while Fulgham continued his role as Carson Wentz's new target hog and tallied 75 yards and a score.
We still ask you to keep your eyes on some names we've mentioned in recent weeks, like Claypool, Fulgham, Justin Herbert, Mike Williams, Christian Kirk and others. However, we won't mention them below, as these are players that we advise you to pick up after specific happenings from Week 6.
