Amon-Ra St. Brown Should See Heavy Target Volume in Week 7

Saturday, October 24, 6:19 AM

Five games into his 2026 season, Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown has recorded 37 catches for 372 yards and five touchdowns on 57 targets. The 26-year-old's production has slowed down a little bit lately, as he's failed to crack 75 receiving yards in a game and has hauled in just one touchdown catch since Week 2. In Week 7, Detroit will host the Green Bay Packers. The game projects to be a high-scoring affair, but the Packers have fielded a stingy pass defense so far this season, ranking third in the NFL in yards per pass attempt allowed (6.0) and eighth in passing touchdowns allowed (seven). Still, St. Brown is averaging nearly 12 targets per game this year and has been the clear number one option in the passing game for Lions quarterback Jared Goff. St. Brown remains a high-end WR1 option for fantasy managers in Week 7.

Zay Flowers a Borderline WR1 With Starting QB in Question

Saturday, October 24, 8:04 AM

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Zay Flowers has been great so far heading into a Week 7 matchup with the Cincinnati Bengals. In the five games he has played, he has posted double-digit half-PPR points in each one. The 26-year-old receiver is the clear top target and has been efficient, catching at least 80 percent of his targets, except for last week's loss. With Lamar Jackson missing the last two games but potentially returning this week, his efficiency should return to that 80 percent level while also maintaining his average of 10 targets per game from the last three weeks. Top Bengals cornerback DJ Turner has been a nuisance to opposing WR1s this season, but fantasy managers shouldn't be deterred by that given the combination of Lamar's potential return and Flowers's consistent volume. The floor might be slightly lower than usual, especially if Lamar doesn't end up playing, but fantasy managers should feel good about starting Flowers in Week 7.
