Week 7 Fantasy Waiver Wire Consensus: Vidal Headlines Adds as Dart, Boutte, Fannin and Knight Emerge

Waiver urgency spikes due to injury-driven role changes after Week 6.

Overview

  • Chargers RB Kimani Vidal is the top add after logging 138 scrimmage yards and a touchdown as Los Angeles’ lead back with Najee Harris out and Omarion Hampton on injured reserve.
  • Giants rookie QB Jaxson Dart is widely labeled a must-add thanks to top-12 production over his three starts and 162 rushing yards that boost his weekly floor.
  • Patriots WR Kayshon Boutte becomes a priority pickup following a 5-93-2 breakout, with his outlook buoyed by Drake Maye’s strong recent play.
  • Browns TE Harold Fannin Jr. emerged following David Njoku’s injury, delivering seven catches for 81 yards and positioning himself as a plug-in starter at a thin position.
  • Cardinals RB Bam Knight scored for a second straight week with James Conner out for the season and Trey Benson on IR, while managers are also eyeing streamers such as Sam Darnold and planning around Week 7 byes (BAL, BUF) ahead of a heavier Week 8.
