Week 7 Fantasy Football Wide Receivers: Sit 'Em

DJ Moore - Carolina Panthers vs. Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Carolina Panthers WR DJ Moore

DJ Moore has been one of the most disappointing wide receivers during the 2022 Fantasy Football season so far. He finished each of the last three seasons ranked in the top 25 in fantasy points per game among wide receivers. Six games into the 2022 season, he ranks outside of the top 50.

Things could still get even worse for Moore as the Carolina Panthers appear to be entering a full rebuild. They recently traded Christian McCaffrey to the San Francisco 49ers and fired head coach Matt Rhule. Unless Moore is traded prior to the deadline, he will be extremely difficult to trust in Fantasy Football this season on one of the weakest offenses in the NFL.

Drake London - Atlanta Falcons vs. Cincinnati Bengals

Drake London got off to a fast start to to the 2022 NFL season in his rookie year. He totaled 16 receptions and two touchdowns across his first three games, while exceeding 50 yards in all of them. He has failed to score a touchdown since then, while totaling just nine recpetions across his last three games.

Rookies can be more inconsistent than most other NFL players at times and so has been the case for London so far. Week 7 presents a challenging Fantasy Football matchup as he tries to get back on track against the Cincinnati Bengals' top-ten scoring defense.

Darnell Mooney - Chicago Bears vs. New England Patriots

Darnell Mooney has been the leading wide receiver for the Chicago Bears this year, but that's not saying much. The Bears currently average the least passing yards per game by a wide margin. They average at least 32 fewer passing yards per game than any other NFL team.

Mooney has exceeded 7.5 PPR fantasy points just twice this season, while failing to reach five points three times. He faces off against the New England Patriots on the road in Week 7 and is better off avoided in Fantasy Football.
