Welcome to the Week 7 edition of Daily Fantasy Football DraftKings targets. An introduction is not really all that necessary, as the title of this DFS article pretty much sums up what is going to be discussed.

It's important to identify players with good matchups, but we also want to look at their DraftKings prices so we can hopefully find low-cost / high-production players for your lineups.

I will be providing one top DFS play and one DFS value play at each position for Week 7 NFL DraftKings action. Let's get down to it.

DraftKings DFS Quarterbacks for Week 7

Andrew Luck (vs NO, $7,600)

Andrew Luck finally put on a good showing last week against the New England Patriots, and he gets another good matchup against the New Orleans Saints this week. With over 300 yards and three touchdowns last week, Luck seems to be 100 percent healthy, and he is safe to use in any format. On the season, he has over 1,000 yards and eight touchdowns, but seven interceptions in only four games. The New Orleans Saints are allowing over 400 total yards of offense per game, so the Colts' offense should be in full-attack mode this week. Forget about his struggles in the beginning of the season because Andrew Luck is back in action.

Ryan Fitzpatrick (at NE, $5,200)

Speaking of the New England Patriots, they are one of the worst pass defenses in the entire league, and even Ryan Fitzpatrick should be able to have some success against them. The New York Jets are definitely not one of the better offenses in league, but at only $5,200, Fitzpatrick makes for a solid value play. Last week, Fitzpatrick looked pretty solid against the Washington Redskins, and their defense is much better than the Patriots. Pair the Jets' QB with Eric Decker (see below) and watch the fantasy points roll in.

 

DraftKings DFS Running Backs for Week 7

Devonta Freeman (at TEN, $7,900)

There is no reason to avoid Devonta Freeman this week against the Tennessee Titans. There is actually no reason to avoid Devonta Freeman ever. He is the best RB in the league right now for fantasy purposes. He has over 35 fantasy points in each of his last four games, proving his production is no fluke. It doesn't matter that the Titans are solid against the running game. The Washington Redskins have a solid rushing defense as well, and Freeman tore them up. He is going to tear up the Titans' defense as well, and he has the ability to go over 100 yards both on the ground and in the air in any given week. Use him at will.

Jonathan Stewart (vs PHI, $4,000)

Jonathan Stewart is one of the riskiest plays on the board this week against the Philadelphia Eagles. He looked great last week against the Seattle Seahawks and has a ton of talent, but he has under-performed all season long. With just under 300 yards on the ground and two touchdowns, it is safe to say that Jonathan Stewart has been a season-long disappointment. However, this week against the Eagles, he should be able to find some success. In the past he has caught a lot of balls out of the backfield and he should be able to slash through the Eagles' weak defense. He is the best low-priced, tournament play RB on the board.

 

DraftKings DFS Wide Receivers for Week 7

Antonio Brown (at KC, $7,900)

Antonio Brown makes for a solid tournament play this week against the Kansas City Chiefs. The Chiefs are currently allowing the most fantasy points per game to WRs out of any defense in the league. Landry Jones is going to start this week, and that will actually help Brown's fantasy value. Jones is a much more accurate and capable pocket QB, as Mike Vick tends to use his legs to get the job done. Brown was one of the best WR options for daily fantasy sports in the league when Roethlisberger was healthy, and he should be on the rise with a more pass-oriented QB at the helm for the Steelers.

Eric Decker (at NE, $5,300)

Eric Decker continued his touchdown streak last week against the Washington Redskins, and he should be able to keep it going this week against the New England Patriots. As I previously mentioned, the Patriots have one of the worst pass defenses in the league, and the Jets should be able to take advantage of that. They are not a flashy offense, and Decker is not a flashy player, but he will return value. This makes him a great cash game play. What other WR can you get that is under $5,500 and is almost guaranteed a touchdown?

 

DraftKings DFS Tight Ends for Week 7

Antonio Gates (vs OAK, $5,000)

Antonio Gates makes for a better play this week than Greg Olsen and Rob Gronkowski. Shocking, I know, but he gets a great matchup against the Oakland Raiders, who have the worst defense in the league against the TE. Gates has been solid while healthy, and although he missed practice on Wednesday, that was likely just to give the veteran some rest. With nine receptions and over 90 yards in both of his two games this season, he is one of the best TEs in the league. Do not hesitate to use him, especially since he is so much cheaper than both Olsen and Gronk.

Jordan Reed (vs TB, $4,200)

It looks like Jordan Reed should suit up this week against the Tampa Bay Rays. He is one of the better TE options in the league while he is healthy, as Kirk Cousins loves to throw the ball to him. He is a huge part of the Washington Redskins offense, and they desperately need him back with DeSean Jackson still out with a hamstring issue. Prior to injury, Reed was returning value week-in and week-out. He should continue to do that when he returns, which should be this week.
