Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Week 7: Sam Darnold, Darrell Henderson, Auden Tate Top Pickup Options
By Matt Citak(CBS Boston)- As Week 7 approaches, we have officially reached the midway point of the fantasy football season. In a year where the tight end position is thin, Brate could be worth a flier. In fact, the sixth-year tight end has put up solid numbers in three of his last four games. Such is the problem with relying on the Texans tight end. But with few consistent options at the position this season, Fells is another guy worth taking a chance on.

Christian McCaffrey, Aaron Jones and Will Fuller finished with around 45 fantasy points each, while guys such as DJ Chark (32 points), Josh Jacobs (28 points) and Michael Gallup (21 points) exploded onto the fantasy scene with massive outings. Minshew has registered at least 16 fantasy points in every game this season, a remarkable feat for a sixth-round pick that was nowhere near the fantasy radar just a month ago. Brissett entered Week 5 having registered at least 16.5 fantasy points in each of Indys first four games, and topped the 20-point mark in two of those contests. With the Colts entering their bye week, fantasy owners may unload Brissett, giving you the opportunity to snag the 26-year-old quarterback. While the touchdown was Tates first of the season, Week 5 marked the third consecutive week in which the 22-year-old had at least six targets.
