10 Fantasy Football Sleepers for Week 7
Four fantasy-relevant NFL teams are on bye in Week 7, opening the door for plenty of sleepers to post high fantasy finishes.

Alfred Morris, RB, Washington

Yeah, this one is a bit unexpected. We all knew that Matt Jones had a chance to overtake Alfred Morris in the Washington backfield this season, but Morris is fully entrenched in a three-way timeshare (at best) with Jones and Chris Thompson. The key here is that Jones missed the team's Week 6 contest but did practice on Wednesday. His status for Week 7 is uncertain. Thompson missed practice on Wednesday.

That leaves Morris as the healthiest back in the bunch, and there's an outside chance he's the only one of the three who suits up on Sunday. Tampa Bay ranks 15th in Adjusted Defensive Rushing NEP per play and, before two strong outings against fantasy backs, allowed more than 23 fantasy points to running backs in three straight games.
