NFL DFS FanDuel GPP Picks Week 7 (Fantasy Football)

Building winning GPP lineups, by definition, is tough. There are, however, some key things to look for when filling out your roster. First and foremost is ceiling, we want the players with potential to score the most points. Next is leverage; we want the players that fall through the cracks. Finally, we have to build a lineup that tells a winning story through game script and stacking.

A final note before diving into the picks. Don’t ignore the Cash Picks article put out by Julia Papworth. Her article pairs perfectly with my GPP picks, as it’s typically a good idea to mix in some value plays, especially if they fit the GPP-winning story you write. 

Week 7, here we come!

Quarterbacks

Before diving into my favorite GPP QBs this week, a quick note on Jayden Daniels ($8,700). He’s got the highest ceiling in a great matchup against a Dallas team that ranks dead last in fantasy points above expectation allowed (PAE) to QBs. However, he’s going to be extremely popular. I will absolutely be playing him in GPPs, but I want to offer up some less obvious options.

Drake Maye @ TEN – $8,200

Maye has broken out this season. He’s currently second in the NFL in completion percentage (73.2%) and third in EPA/play (.33). He’s taking on a struggling Titans team that just fired their head coach, and while the matchup looks better for RBs, the New England backfield has been a disappointment so far this season. With the Patriots favored by seven points and Maye’s roster percentage showing up around five percent in the optimizer, I’ll be building some lineups around him in GPPs.
