Top Games to Target in Week 7 for DFS
Packers vs. Texans — 1 p.m. ET
Texans QB C.J. Stroud has a prime opportunity this week against the Packers, whose defense ranks outside the top 20 in multiple categories: passing yards allowed per game, pass attempts allowed per game, and passing touchdowns allowed per game.
With the loss of Nico Collins, Stefon Diggs has become Stroud’s go-to target, averaging nearly double-digit targets per game and surpassing 65 receiving yards in his last five games.
As primarily a slot receiver, Diggs will line up against Packers' rookie safety Javon Bullard, who has struggled in coverage this season, ranking 69th out of 79 safeties. Bullard is allowing over a 100 passer rating when targeted and over 11 yards per reception, setting up a favorable matchup for Diggs to exploit.
With Packers WR Christian Watson battling a hamstring injury, WR Jayden Reed has emerged as QB Jordan Love's top target this season. Reed boasts one of the best passer ratings when targeted, at 148, and averages 16 yards per reception. This week, Reed will be matched up against Jaylen Pitre, who ranks 81st out of 102 safeties in coverage.
Both the Packers' and Texans' offenses are among the top 10 in the league, with both teams putting up 31+ points last week, signaling another high-scoring affair.
PrizePicks to Consider: QB CJ Stroud more than 258.5 pass yards / WR Jayden Reed more than 58.5 receiving yards / C.J. Stroud + Jordan Love more than 507.5 Pass Yards (Combo)
Eagles vs. Giants — 1 p.m. ET
In a highly-anticipated division rivalry, the Philadelphia Eagles face the New York Giants in what will be a must-watch game, especially with the added storyline of Saquon Barkley's homecoming.
The Eagles' defense, filled with rookies, has struggled this season, allowing over 215 passing yards per game and over 100 rushing yards per game, ranking outside the top 25 in both categories. On the other side, the Giants' defense has been just as vulnerable, ranking near the bottom of the league in completion percentage allowed and rushing yards per attempt.
Both teams' weaknesses align with their opponent's strengths. The Eagles rely heavily on their run game and moving the ball efficiently downfield, while the Giants' defense struggles to stop the run and passing attacks.
With both teams’ offensive firepower and defensive vulnerabilities, this matchup is set to feature plenty of scoring opportunities on both sides.
PrizePicks to Consider: QB Jalen Hurts more than 29.5 pass completions / RB Saquon Barkley more than 83.5 rushing yards

Best OL/DL Matchups to Target: Week 7
Seahawks OL vs. Falcons DL
The Seahawks have one of the weakest offensive lines in the NFL, particularly on the right side. Starting right guard Anthony Bradford ranks 72nd out of 75 NFL guards, while right tackle Stone Forsythe ranks 73rd out of 76 NFL tackles.
Forsythe has allowed a staggering 35 total pressures this season, and Bradford is tied for the most penalties and sacks allowed among guards.
This presents a significant opportunity for the Atlanta Falcons' defensive line, led by veterans Matthew Judon and Grady Jarrett, to exploit this vulnerable right side. It could be a long day for Geno Smith in the pocket.
PrizePicks to Consider: QB Geno Smith less than 12.5 Pass Yards
Vikings OL vs. Lions DL
The Detroit Lions are missing their star pass rusher Aidan Hutchinson, which leaves a major gap in their defensive line. The Vikings' offensive line, on the other hand, is a strength.
Left tackle Christian Darrisaw ranks 8th out of 76 tackles, having allowed only 9 total pressures this season. Right tackle Brian O’Neill ranks 12th out of 76 tackles and hasn’t allowed a sack all year.
The Lions will rely on Josh Paschal to fill Hutchinson’s shoes, but he ranks just 69th out of 108 defensive ends, making this a challenging matchup for Detroit. Vikings QB Sam Darnold should find extra time in the pocket in what’s expected to be a high-scoring affair.
PrizePicks to Consider: QB Sam Darnold 258.5 pass yards
Best WR/CB Matchups to Target: Week 7
Bills WR Amari Cooper vs. Titans CB L’Jarius Sneed
WR Amari Cooper, recently traded to the Buffalo Bills, is set for a favorable matchup against Titans cornerback L’Jarius Sneed, who is having a disastrous season. Sneed ranks 102nd out of 104 corners in coverage, per PFF, giving up significant yardage.
Despite the Browns' offensive struggles, Cooper has averaged over 10 yards per reception on 50 targets, which ranks in the top 10 in the NFL.
It’s hard to gauge how much Cooper will play in his first game with the Bills, but keep an eye out for his receiving yards projection to drop on PrizePicks at some point this weekend.
Bengals WR Tee Higgins vs. Browns CB Martin Emerson Jr.
Bengals WR Tee Higgins has been outstanding this season, motivated by playing on the franchise tag. When targeted, Higgins has produced a 111 passer rating and is averaging over 10 yards per reception. Since returning from injury, Higgins ranks inside the top 30 in both receptions and touchdowns. He’ll be facing Martin Emerson Jr., one of the league’s worst corners, who ranks dead last of 102 corners in PFF coverage rating.
Emerson has allowed 17-of-27 targets to be completed for a 127 passer rating and 13 yards per reception, making Higgins a key player to watch.
PrizePicks to Consider: Tee Higgins more than 63.5 receiving yards (Demon)

Eagles RB Saquon Barkley vs. New York Giants
Eagles RB Saquon Barkley is having a stellar year, ranking in the top 10 in the NFL in rushing touchdowns, yards per carry, and rushing yards. Barkley is averaging over 5 yards per carry, and he’ll be facing his former team, the New York Giants, who have struggled defensively.
Linebacker Bobby Okereke ranks 65th out of 79 linebackers, while defensive end Azeez Ojulari ranks 52nd out of 111 defensive ends.
Barkley will be eager to make an impact against the team that let him go in free agency, especially with the chance to score a touchdown.
PrizePicks to Consider: Saquon Barkley 0.5 Rec+Rush TDs — More (Goblin)
Colts WR Alec Pierce vs. Miami Dolphins
Alec Pierce has emerged as a deep threat for the Indianapolis Colts this season. Standing at 6-foot-3, Pierce is averaging nearly 30 yards per reception and maintaining a passer rating of over 100 when targeted. His matchup this week will be against Cater Kohou, a 5-foot-10 cornerback who ranks 97th out of 102 corners in coverage.
Kohou is allowing over 10 yards per reception, making this a potentially favorable matchup for Pierce and the Colts' offense, who will get their starting QB Anthony Richardson back this week.
PrizePicks to Consider: Alec Pierce 0.5 Rec+Rush TDs — More (Demon)
