3 Bold NFL Predictions for Week 7

Pierre Garcon Will Be a Top-5 Wide Receiver

Why This Is Bold: Pierre Garcon ranks 19th in fantasy points at the wide receiver position, doesn't have a single target inside the 10-yard line, and has yet to catch a touchdown this season.

Why This Will Happen: Garcon currently ranks 6th in the NFL in targets. He's been peppered with looks all season long, and the Dallas Cowboys have been getting obliterated by opposing teams' top receiving options this season.

Week Player Targets Receptions Yards Touchdowns
1 Sterling Shepard 8 7 44 0
2 Emmanuel Sanders 8 6 62 2
3 Larry Fitzgerald 15 13 149 1
4 Cooper Kupp 7 5 60 1
5 Davante Adams 11 7 66 2
Total Average 9.8 7.6 76.2 1.2


In point-per-reception leagues, this average comes out to 22.4 points per game. As the leader in targets on the San Francisco 49ers, Garcon is primed for a big day.
