Scott Pianowski gives his green-light, yellow-light and red-light plays to help you make your toughest Week 7 start/sit decisions.
✅ Green Light
TE George Kittle vs. Chiefs
Kansas City’s seam coverage has been a mess all year, and Kittle seemed to fix San Francisco’s red-zone problems all by himself a week ago. Seasonal fantasy managers already have Kittle ready to go, but DFS players might want to follow suit as well, even at a premium cost.
QB Drake Maye vs. Jaguars
His debut had some mistakes, sure, but he also tossed three touchdown passes and ran for a sneaky 38 yards against a good Houston defense. Now he takes aim at a Jacksonville defense that’s been torched by the pass all season. Maye belongs near the top of the streamer pile for Week 7, and don’t be afraid to dial up Pop Douglas as well.

RB Kareem Hunt at 49ers
The San Francisco front seven used to be a matchup to avoid, but the unit is ordinary this year (14th in DVOA against the run). Andy Reid quickly put Hunt into the Circle of Trust, feeding him an absurd 27 carries before the bye. Hunt has this backfield on lockdown.
WR Chris Godwin vs. Ravens
Mike Evans isn’t completely healthy right now, so the surging Godwin could easily be looking at a dozen or more targets. He’s surging as the Tampa Bay slot machine, with five catches or more in every game and five touchdowns in six weeks. So much for the guy who had a touchdown allergy for most of 2022 and 2023.
🫤 Yellow Light
TE Mark Andrews vs. Buccaneers
Andrews had a decent yardage game in Week 5 and he found the end zone last week, so the arrow is starting to point upwards. But Derrick Henry and Zay Flowers are far ahead of Andrews in the Baltimore pecking order, and Andrews is merely seeing about 50% of snaps over the last three weeks….
