Week 7 matchup analysis
HOU allows 38.1 PPR points per game to opposing wide receivers: No. 4 of 32 for most points allowed through Week 6 (6 games). Opposing wide receivers average 22.5 targets, 13.7 receptions, 185.7 receiving yards and 1.0 receiving touchdowns per game as a group. This is a favorable matchup by positional fantasy points allowed. The published forecast is 1.6 PPR points.
Matchup sources and sample limits
Position results are totals for all opposing players at that position, divided by defensive games, not an individual player forecast. Rank 1 allows the most PPR points; ties share rank. At least three games are required. Raw results are not adjusted for opponent strength, game script or injuries and do not establish individual cornerback coverage. QB PPR totals follow the source’s default 4-point passing-TD scoring.
WR with the highest targets per recorded player-stat appearance for that team entering the game. Prior weeks only; tied leaders, Week 1 and games without a recorded appearance by the leader are excluded. This is not cornerback coverage data.

Fantasy verdict
Darnell Mooney is a bench stash asset for rest-of-season trades. He is No. 202 overall in Half PPR. In 6 recorded games through Week 6, he has turned 19 targets into 8 catches, 109 yards and 0 touchdowns. That is 3.6 PPR points per game.
Role and efficiency
His latest 3 appearances produced 3.7 targets per game, versus 2.7 in the preceding 3. Opportunity is expanding. His targets equal 8.9% of team pass attempts in those games. Across 3 recent snap records, he averaged 52.0% of offensive snaps. Touchdowns supplied 0.0% of his PPR points; yardage and catches carry most of his production. He has 5.7 yards per target, but the sample is below our comparison minimum. Do not price that rate as a proven efficiency edge.
Weekly lineup call
Week 7: Keep him out of standard starting lineups. His 1.6-point PPR forecast ranks WR102 in this run, built on 1.6 targets, 0.6 catches and 6.6 receiving yards. The matchup is against HOU. This forecast is 2.0 points below his observed PPR average. Run availability: Full Participation in Practice; Neck.
Trade stance
Half-PPR trade value: 37.1. Same-position model prices: Tyquan Thornton (WR74, value 37.9) and Jalen Nailor (WR81, value 38.1). Price him as a secondary asset in rest-of-season deals; do not upgrade his trade tier on a single weekly forecast. PPR value is 37.3; Standard is 37.2. His overall rank held at 202.

Sources and calculation notes
Automatically generated by The Roster Report from source-linked statistics and published calculations. Fantasy tiers use a 12-team, one-QB baseline; lineup calls use the player’s rank within the published PPR forecast. Trade stances are editorial interpretations of model tiers, not market-price claims. Efficiency comparisons require three recorded games and at least 50 pass attempts for QBs, 30 carries for RBs, or 20 targets for WRs/TEs within the analyzer’s player pool. These editorial rules do not change model scores or rankings. No manual player writeups. Model neutral defaults are excluded from observed-stat claims. Recorded games can include injury-shortened appearances. Recent comparisons use appearances, not missed-game zeros.

Default-league values include the analyzer’s existing availability and RB adjustments. Custom scoring, Superflex and package premiums are evaluated inside the analyzer. No market discount or buy/sell recommendation is inferred without supporting market data.
Projection run assumptions: October 25 pregame injury refresh: confirmed inactives excluded; Mayfield and Huntley confirmed starters; Mason and Coleman restored using recorded 2026 roles. Jacobs full-workload and Barkley conditional healthy-role assumptions retained. Puka remains conditional. Kirk, Dell and Sampson are activated but have no usable 2026 offensive sample, so no numeric forecast is invented. Thursday and Paris-game forecasts preserved for audit.
