Week 7 Waiver Wire: Breakout Fantasy Football Pickups from Sunday's Box Scores

Drake Maye's debut as the New England Patriots starting quarterback went better than expected.

The No. 3 overall pick did not look overwhelmed in a tough matchup against the Houston Texans.

Maye gave the Patriots offense a foundation to build on in the coming weeks, and he also delivered hope that he can be a viable bye-week replacement in fantasy football.

Maye's top target from Sunday, Demario Douglas, now carries some fantasy value as well because of his connection with the rookie signal-caller.

A few other off-the-radar players took advantage of their respective Week 6 matchups and could now be viewed as options for Week 7 and beyond.
