Whether you're dealing with some early-season injury bugs or left some holes open after your draft, there's a handful of players still available in most leagues that could be of service this week.
Here they are!
Joe Flacco, QB

The Ravens quarterback has missed two practices this week, and will likely be close to a game-time decision. But if Flacco suits up against the Jets, and you're in need of a quarterback for Week 7, feel confident about slotting him into your lineup.
He threw for more than 300 yards against the Giants last week, and against a shoddy Jets defense -- they've allowed eight receiving touchdowns over the last three weeks -- a big game could be in store.
Marquise Lee, WR

An under-the-radar flex option for Week 7 could be Marquise Lee, who has quietly been working up a rapport with Blake Bortles and seeing the ball come his way more often. He's hauled in at least five catches in three of his last four games, and it almost definitely available in your league. There's some risk involved for sure, but it seems like only a matter of time until a touchdown comes his way.
Brandon LaFell, WR

Against the Browns on Sunday, there should be a lot of love to be spread around on offense. Brandon LaFell has racked up end zone targets over the last three games -- scoring three times in that span. If bye weeks are giving you pain at the receiver spot this week, LaFell could be another option to turn to.
James White, RB

While LaGarrette Blount is the primary goal-line back for New England, James White has taken on the Shane Vereen role, as the primary pass-catcher out of the backfield. He's coming off an eight-catch, two-touchdown day against Cincinnati, and with Tom Brady back, White's fantasy value is trending up. If he's still floating around in your league, grab him while you can.
Jacquizz Rodgers, RB

Without Doug Martin and Charles Sims, the Buccaneers have turned to veteran Jacquizz Rodgers to do the heavy lifting out of the backfield. On 30 carries in Week 5, he hit the 100-yard mark, doing a bit of work in the receiving game as well. He's probably still out there in your league, and could be a solid RB2 against a brutal 49ers defense.
