NFL Week 7 Top Performers

Lucky, Luck, Luck, YEAH!

Like real life Weekly Fantasy Football leagues can be chaos incarnate. We do out best to prognosticate future events and predict player performance in our Buy High/Buy Low and Optimized Lineup columns.

Now it is time to see how we did with Top Performers of the Week. This post is specifically about weekly leagues that give .5 points per reception like Fanduel.com and Draftstreet.com.

For sites that give 1 point per reception like DraftKings.com and StarStreet.com those totals will be located in the parentheses next to the .5 ppr scores.

Note: Some website give bonus points for 300+ passing yards and 100+ rushing and receiving yards. These bonuses have not necessarily been calculated into weekly scores.
