Welcome to Week 7 of the 2024 NFL season and our weekly PPR fantasy football superflex rankings. We know many of you compete in superflex formats that invite/covet second quarterbacks in starting lineups, so these rankings account for that. It might look odd to see the lowest-ranked fantasy passers ahead of typical RB2 and WR2 options, but the potential scoring impact demands it. If your league is of the standard flex variety, just ignore the presence of quarterbacks. Regardless, good luck this week!
1. Jayden Daniels, Commanders (QB1): Even when the team loses, he produces numbers. This week, he gets Carolina!
2. Lamar Jackson, Ravens (QB2): Efficient and dangerous as a thrower and runner, regardless of opponent.
3. Jalen Hurts, Eagles (QB3): He got his top wide receivers back from injury, but this offense can play better.
4. Kyren Williams, Rams (RB1): Touchdown maker should really enjoy facing the struggling Raiders.
5. Saquon Barkley, Eagles (RB2): The Giants didn’t try hard enough to keep him, and now he faces the Giants. Enjoy.
6. Bijan Robinson, Falcons (RB3): One touchdown the first five games, then two in Week 6. More of that, please.
7. Baker Mayfield, Buccaneers (QB4): The No. 2 fantasy QB for the season is on pace for 42 touchdown passes. Wow.
8. Josh Allen, Bills (QB5): Solid Monday night outing, and now the wide receiver crew is deeper.
9. Joe Burrow, Bengals (QB6)
10. Jordan Love, Packers (QB7)
11. Kirk Cousins, Falcons (QB8)
12. Malik Nabers, Giants (WR1): Should return from two-game absence (concussion) to torch the Philly defense.
13. Justin Jefferson, Vikings (WR2): Comes off the bye week for massive division matchup with the Lions.
14. Chris Godwin, Buccaneers (WR3): Fantasy’s No. 1-scoring WR keeps piling on the touchdowns. We like this version.
15. Drake London, Falcons (WR4): Has touchdowns in four of five games, and Seattle has lost three consecutive games.
16. Ja’Marr Chase, Bengals (WR5)
17. Brock Purdy, 49ers (QB9)
18. C.J. Stroud, Texans (QB10)
19. Geno Smith, Seahawks (QB11): The league leader in passing yards has to throw to keep his team in games. That’s good for fantasy.
20. Kyler Murray, Cardinals (QB12): Rather quiet statistically the past month, so Monday versus the Chargers is key for his value.
21. Derrick Henry, Ravens (RB4): Wouldn’t it be something if he scored a touchdown in every single game?
22. Alvin Kamara, Saints (RB5): Nowhere to run the past few games, but he is still catching passes.
23. Jonathan Taylor, Colts (RB6): Has lost two games due to an ankle injury, and we are getting unfortunate vibes of his abbreviated 2023 season.
24. Kenneth Walker III, Seahawks (RB7)
25. A.J. Brown, Eagles (WR6)
26. Amon-Ra St. Brown, Lions (WR7)
27. Sam Darnold, Vikings (QB13): Week 5 went poorly for him, then came the bye, so everyone is watching him against the Lions.
28. Trevor Lawrence, Jaguars (QB14): Multiple touchdown passes in three straight games, and here comes another London game.
29. Breece Hall, Jets (RB8): He looked like a top RB again on Monday, turning 23 touches into 169 yards.
30. Brian Robinson Jr., Commanders (RB9): Expected to return from a one-week hiatus due to a knee injury. The team may be cautious since it is Carolina.
31. J.K. Dobbins, Chargers (RB10): So much for taking it easy on him. He had 27 touches in Week 6. No timeshare here!
32. Diontae Johnson, Panthers (WR8)
33. Garrett Wilson, Jets (WR9)
34. Terry McLaurin, Commanders (WR10)
35. Patrick Mahomes, Chiefs (QB15)
36. Drake Maye, Patriots (QB16): Made mistakes in his debut, but also threw three touchdown passes and ran for 38 yards. Nice upside.
37. Justin Herbert, Chargers (QB17): He finally topped 200 passing yards, but it may not portend more of the same ahead.
38. Bo Nix, Broncos (QB18): Has the Thursday game this week versus a Saints defense that was awful in Week 6.
39. Anthony Richardson, Colts (QB19): Good luck. Honestly, he has mad upside if he plays and can finish the game, but there is risk, too.
40. Mike Evans, Buccaneers (WR11)
41. Stefon Diggs, Texans (WR12)
42. DK Metcalf, Seahawks (WR13)
43. Cooper Kupp, Rams (WR14): Ankle injury in Week 2 has cost him a month, but if he plays, we must assume he can produce numbers.
44. Chuba Hubbard, Panthers (RB11): He has at least 90 rushing yards in four consecutive games. Perhaps he loses the starting role, perhaps not.
45. James Cook, Bills (RB12): Monday evening inactive really cost fantasy managers, so watch his status for this week.
46. Joe Mixon, Texans (RB13): Looked like prime Mixon in his return from injury in Week 6. No concerns here.
47. Aaron Jones, Vikings (RB14): Hip injury from Week 5 may keep us guessing all week. If he plays, be confident.
48. Daniel Jones, Giants (QB20): Quiet Week 6 versus the Bengals let fantasy managers down. If Nabers plays, he should rebound.
49. Aaron Rodgers, Jets (QB21): Gets an upgrade after the team traded for his wide receiver buddy, but he is not a top-10 QB.
50. Zay Flowers, Ravens (WR15)
51. Deebo Samuel Sr., 49ers (WR16)
52. DeVonta Smith, Eagles (WR17): A.J. Brown gets more attention, but Smith scored a TD in his return in Week 6 as well.
53. James Conner, Cardinals (RB15): He is a bit all-or-nothing these days, which is dangerous in fantasy. The Chargers matchup is a tough one.
54. De’Von Achane, Dolphins (RB16): Presumably healthy coming off the bye, and the Colts matchup is a positive one.
55. Tony Pollard, Titans (RB17): The lone Titan worth activating in fantasy these days. How sad.
56. Jahmyr Gibbs, Lions (RB18): Gibbs is not the team’s leading fantasy scorer at RB, though we still believe better days are ahead.
57. David Montgomery, Lions (RB19)
58. Andy Dalton, Panthers (QB22)
59. Matthew Stafford, Rams (QB23)
60. Jared Goff, Lions (QB24)
61. George Kittle, 49ers (TE1)
62. Brock Bowers, Raiders (TE2)
63. Travis Kelce, Chiefs (TE3)
64. Trey McBride, Cardinals (TE4): His 61.1 PPR points are the most for any RB/WR/TE sans a touchdown. Let’s rectify that, Trey.
65. Tee Higgins, Bengals (WR18): No complaints about him averaging nearly 10 targets per game.
66. Tyreek Hill, Dolphins (WR19): Plenty of complaints about his performance, but is it really his fault?
67. Jayden Reed, Packers (WR20): Ankle injury may compromise him this week, and the Packers certainly have emough WR depth to sit him.
68. Davante Adams, Jets (WR21): Welcome to New Jersey! His value increases with the trade, but probably not to WR1 level.
69. Tank Dell, Texans (WR22)
70. Josh Jacobs, Packers (RB20)
71. Jordan Mason, 49ers (RB21): If his shoulder injury keeps him out, learn the name Isaac Guerendo. He is the next man up.
72. Rhamondre Stevenson, Patriots (RB22): A foot injury cost him Week 6. The QB change should aid a healthy Stevenson.
73. Kareem Hunt, Chiefs (RB23): You may want to sit him because of 49ers matchup, but they are not top 10 in preventing PPR points to RBs.
74. Tyler Huntley, Dolphins (QB25): We tried to warn people he wasn’t a great passer. Just aim at Tyreek Hill a lot, please.
75. Russell Wilson, Steelers (QB26): The Steelers appear to be benching the No. 6 fantasy QB for this guy. Can’t say we weren’t warned.
76. Aidan O’Connell, Raiders (QB27)
77. Deshaun Watson, Browns (QB28)
78. Darnell Mooney, Falcons (WR23)
