Oct. 15 (UPI) -- Amon-Ra St. Brown, Davante Adams and Jaxson Smith-Njigba lead my Top-50 fantasy football wide receiver rankings for Week 7.

Ja'Marr Chase and Justin Jefferson join St. Brown, Adams and Smith-Njigba in my Top 5. CeeDee Lamb, Nico Collins, Rome Odunze, Jaylen Waddle and Rashee Rice are among my other Top-10 options.

My top free agent and waiver-wire targets for Week 7 are available here.

All of my positional rankings will be updated until Week 7 kickoffs. Players also will be moved out of or adjusted within the rankings based on injuries.

Be sure to monitor your fantasy football team lineups, especially if you roster Emeka Egbuka, Marvin Harrison Jr., Puka Nacua, Garrett Wilson, Calvin Ridley or other injured wide receivers.

Players from the Baltimore Ravens and Buffalo Bills, who are on bye, should be benched or, in some cases, dropped from rosters.
