Week 7 Fantasy Waiver Wire Priorities Focus on Vidal, Dart and Fannin

Usage shifts from Week 6 are driving priority adds before waiver claims process this week.

Overview

  • Kimani Vidal is the consensus top pickup after seizing the Chargers’ lead role with 138 scrimmage yards on 21 touches, out-snapping Hassan Haskins as Omarion Hampton remains on injured reserve until at least Week 10.
  • Giants rookie Jaxson Dart is a recommended add in many formats thanks to a strong rushing floor—50-plus rushing yards in each of his first three starts—though a tougher Week 7 matchup at Denver is noted.
  • Harold Fannin Jr. stepped into Cleveland’s full-time tight end role after David Njoku’s knee injury, logging 80% snaps with a 75.8% route share and posting 7 catches for 81 yards, making him a priority TE streamer.
  • Kayshon Boutte’s 5-93-2 breakout puts him on volatile WR watch lists, while Kendrick Bourne has led San Francisco in targets with back-to-back 142-yard games, keeping him in short-term Flex consideration.
  • Zonovan ‘Bam’ Knight has led recent Arizona backfield usage with touchdowns in consecutive games, and TE depth options like Oronde Gadsden II and Theo Johnson are emerging, with outlets urging managers to plan for Week 7 byes and a heavier Week 8.
