Week 7 of the 2026 NFL season was another wild one with overtime finishes and key Fantasy Football performances that defined the week. Before we turn the page on Week 7, it's time to reflect on key standout performances and what the Week 8 waiver-wire priorities should be. From emerging wide receivers to running backs making the most of expanded opportunities, several players have put themselves on the Fantasy radar.
Hopefully you scooped up Cooper on your wire last week, but he remains rostered in fewer leagues than he should be. That roster percentage should be 100%. Cooper proved just as explosive in Week 7 as he was in his breakout Week 6 performance.
Cooper racked up 115 yards on five receptions and turned all five of his targets into a reception. He scored a touchdown and, perhaps more importantly, the Jets designed the play around him. He was lined up in the backfield.
The Jets are designing red zone touches for their rookie first-round pick and with 218 yards and two touchdowns over the last two weeks he has entered must-start territory. If Concepcion was dropped in your league, he's another riser. His breakout performance in Week 7 included 10 targets, 129 receiving yards and eight receptions.
This is a career high in targets, receptions and yards for the rookie first-round pick. Concepcion had a 29% target share, three forced missed tackles and converted seven first downs for the Browns. He's a solution maker in this offense and he gets it done before and after the catch.
He racked up 110 air yards and 82 yards after the catch in another Browns victory. Concepcion is squarely in the WR2/3 mix moving forward. The Pollard breakout finally came just as rumors have surfaced about him potentially being traded before the NFL trade deadline.
