Week 7 Fantasy Football Rankings: Quarterbacks

With a few key QBs on a bye, Sam Howell cracks the top 10.

Welcome to Week 7 of the fantasy football season! Also known as, “bye-mageddon!”

That’s right, there are six teams on a bye: Carolina, Cincinnati, Dallas, Houston, New York Jets and Tennessee. That makes the rankings even more important, and we’re here to help with my initial fantasy player lists! I’ve used a full-point PPR scoring system, which you can use in coordination with the Week 7 edition of Start Em, Sit Em. At Sports Illustrated, we always have you covered!

At the quarterback position, Sam Howell makes a big move up into the top 12. Jordan Love, despite his last start (a stinker in Las Vegas) is still a low-end No. 1 option against the Broncos. Kirk Cousins has dropped out of the top 15, as he’ll continue to be without Justin Jefferson and faces the Niners on Monday night.

Be sure to check back for updates … and good luck everyone!
