Each week this column will analyze a player at each position rostered in 50 percent of Yahoo leagues or less. This group of players is basically a <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">dream<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> stream team. For reference, the threshold used for wins and losses in this article will be if the quarterbacks can score at least 17 points, if the tight ends can score at least eight PPR points, and if the rest can score at least 10 PPR points.

He had a season-high 329 passing yards to go along with a season-high 22 rushing yards as well. He finished with 23.43 fantasy points on the day. Tagovailoa flashed the type of playmaking ability that made him a <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/norton0723\/status\/1426707509600002049?s=20\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">popular sleeper<\/a> heading into the year. He showed no side effects from his fractured ribs and came out of this one unscathed so he should be all systems go this coming week. This week\u2019s matchup against the <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/category\/nfl-teams\/falcons\/\" target=\"_self\">Atlanta Falcons<\/a> is a juicy one. The Falcons have allowed the fourth-most fantasy points to quarterbacks so far this season. They are coming off a bye with an extra week to prepare but that isn\u2019t going to change the players they put on the field. Their secondary is atrocious. The <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/category\/nfl-teams\/dolphins\/\" target=\"_self\">Miami Dolphins<\/a> also don\u2019t have a very strong running game at the moment. Tagovailoa should have no issue attacking the Falcons secondary, making him a great Week 7 stream team option.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Honorable Mentions \u2013 Jameis Winston<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (<\/span><b>NO<\/b> <b>&#8211; 37%<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">) <\/span><b>@ Seattle<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, <\/span><b>Justin Fields<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (<\/span><b>CHI<\/b> <b>&#8211; 32%) @ Tampa Bay<\/b><\/p>\n<h4>Running Back \u2013 Rhamondre Stevenson (NE &#8211; 11%) vs. New York Jets<\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It&#8217;s always a dangerous game trying to predict which <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/category\/nfl-teams\/patriots\/\" target=\"_self\">New England Patriots<\/a> running back is going to have a good week. Just a few weeks ago it looked like Damien Harris was going to dominate this backfield. Brandon Bolden had 13 receptions over the previous three weeks heading into Week 6. Alas, it was Rhamondre Stevenson with the big game in this one. Harris was still the touch leader but it seemed like Stevenson took Bolden&#8217;s passing game usage in this one and also was the preferred goal-line option as well. If that usage continues, Stevenson will be a solid option, especially for those dealing with byes or injuries. This week against the <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/category\/nfl-teams\/jets\/\" target=\"_self\">New York Jets<\/a> is an amazing matchup. The Jets have allowed the most fantasy points to running backs so far this season.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Rhamondre Stevenson averaged 4.2 Yards After Contact, 4.88 YPRR on 3 targets in Week 6.<\/p>\n<p>Damien Harris&#39; career high single game targets is also 3 and it came this year.<\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Fusue (@DevyEusuf) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/DevyEusuf\/status\/1450201074103513089?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">October 18, 2021<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p><b>Honorable Mentions \u2013 J.D.

As mentioned before the Dolphins have a great matchup against a terrible Falcons defense. The Falcons secondary has been leaking fantasy points to opposing wide receivers. Before missing the last two games, Parker had alternated seven and nine target games the first four weeks. He had caught at least four balls in every game as well and averaging over 60 yards per game as well. Again, this is one to keep an eye on but assuming Parker returns to his normal role this week, he should make for a nice Week 7 stream team option.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Honorable Mentions \u2013 Tim Patrick<\/b> <b>(DEN &#8211; 35%) <\/b><strong>@ Cleveland<\/strong><b>,<\/b> <b>Hunter Renfrow (LV &#8211; 47%) vs. Philadelphia<\/b><\/p>\n<h4>Tight End \u2013 Ricky Seals-Jones (WFT &#8211; 29%) @ Green Bay<\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When it comes to tight ends for fantasy purposes, it&#8217;s all about running as many routes as possible. A tight end can&#8217;t score points if they are blocking. Right now there aren&#8217;t many tight ends running more routes than Ricky Seals-Jones. Over the last two weeks since taking over for an injured Logan Thomas, he&#8217;s basically replicated the role. Seals-Jones has played all but one snap and has run routes at a rate that only Travis Kelce and Darren Waller usually do. He&#8217;s also seen 15 targets in that span. This week&#8217;s matchup is nothing special but nothing to fear either against the <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/category\/nfl-teams\/packers\/\" target=\"_self\">Green Bay Packers<\/a>. The <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/category\/nfl-teams\/washington-football-team\/\" target=\"_self\">Washington Football Team<\/a> will likely be trailing and throwing which should help but this is all about the usage. Seals-Jones is seeing elite tight end usage which makes him not only a great Week 7 stream team option but also an every-week starter until Logan Thomas returns.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Ricky Seals-Jones is Logan Thomas.<\/p>\n<p>Snaps 100% \u2705<br \/>Routes 95% \u2705<br \/>Targets 18% \u2705 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/i6Y1ujfHz4\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">pic.twitter.com\/i6Y1ujfHz4<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Dwain McFarland (@dwainmcfarland) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/dwainmcfarland\/status\/1449862877205209091?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">October 17, 2021<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p><b>Honorable Mentions \u2013 C.J.
