Ok, let's get this final article out of the way so we can build some winning lineups. If you haven't already, check out my QB, RB, and WR position articles.
Just an FYI for this weekends set of articles. I will be traveling most of the week and caught up in a wedding. For that reason, these articles will still have my favorite plays listed but the analysis will be brief and limited. In fact, some of these articles may come out via the Partiko App, in which case they may look slightly different. Trust that I have still put in the work to choose my plays but just don't have the time to sit down and write a 4 separate, 1-2 hour articles as the week winds down. If you have any questions or need any further breakdown on a player, just use the comments and I will be sure to answer them.
Each week we take a step back to review the upcoming weeks matchups and crunch the numbers to develop a series of position specific articles related to top daily fantasy sports plays. Whether you are playing on FanDuel, DrafKings, or even configuring your season long NFL lineups, these articles should serve as a reference tool and helpful guide to choosing the best players. I've shortened these articles to give you only the necessities and bottom-line reasoning as to my top choices. This is a no bullshi*t article and by that I mean the players and plays I suggest are those that I will be using in my personal lineups. Nothing is excluded. We intend to win. The goal is to make great lineups, win money, and share our success stories. If you are new to my blog or daily fantasy sports in general, I encourage you to check out my DFS Introduction post which provides some general context on what DFS is and how to play. Spoiler alert, if you like playing fantasy sports and winning money, DFS is the platform for you.

With that being said, here are my top plays at the tight end position for Week 7. Enjoy, upvote, and comment on your weekly outlook.
Jordan Reed - Washington Redskins
$4,800 / vs DAL / WAS + 1
I'm not spending up at tight end this week. Reed sticks out to me as someone people arent talking a lot about but that offers value and upside. Washington has some injuries at receiver which should up Reed's usage this weekend. A guy that is relatively cheap but that gets a decent target share, I like the consistency he offers, at least in terms of usage.
David Njoku - Cleveland Browns
$4,200 / at TB / CLE + 3.5
Will be a bit chalky this weekend but offers great upside at a cheap price value price. Njoku wasn't involved much to start the year but with Baker over the last couple of weeks, Njoku's targets have increased massively. That should continue making a him a great play.
Those are really the only two guys I am focusing on this week to save salary. If you should choose to pay up, just focus on Ertz. He should remain low owned which could make him a solid contrarian play. In any case, good luck this weekend, let's win some money!
