Fantasy Football Week 7 Rankings – Running Backs PPR

To differentiate between all the “Start ‘Ems” on my Fantasy Football Start Em, Sit Em page, you can check out the Weekly Fantasy Football Rankings, so you can figure out whom to start between Player X and Player Y.

Below are my fantasy RB rankings and a set of links for my positional Weekly NFL Fantasy Football Rankings. Keep in mind that this list is for this week only; not the entire rest of the season.

The rankings are based on a PPR scoring system. Each player has Walterfootball.com’s projected stats and standard scoring points.

  1. Jonathan Taylor, RB, Colts (at Chargers)- 28 Points
    100 Rushing Yards, 2 Catches, 10 Receiving Yards, 2 TDs.

  2. Christian McCaffrey, RB, 49ers (vs. Falcons)- 25 Points
    50 Rushing Yards, 7 Catches, 70 Receiving Yards, 1 TD.
    It’s tough to run on the Falcons, but Christian McCaffrey figures to do a lot in the passing game, as usual.

  3. Bijan Robinson, RB, Falcons (at 49ers)- 20 Points
    70 Rushing Yards, 3 Catches, 40 Receiving Yards, 1 TD.

  5. Saquon Barkley, RB, Eagles (at Vikings)- 18 Points
    90 Rushing Yards, 2 Catches, 10 Receiving Yards, 1 TD.
    The Vikings have a run-funnel defense, so the Eagles shouldn’t forget to give Saquon Barkley plenty of carries.

    80 Rushing Yards, 2 Catches, 10 Receiving Yards, 1 TD.
    J.K. Dobbins failed to take advantage of the Jets’ poor defense, but this is another great matchup.
