Welcome to the WR rankings for Week 7.  The byes are fully upon us and are listed below.  We will update the rankings before Sunday’s games to better reflect late week injury news and practice reports.
As with the backs, the byes have hit the receivers hard this week with nine of our weekly starters out. I’ve done my best to sort out what’s left.
