# Andrew Erickson: In his Week 7 waiver-wire column, Erickson forecasts several starting-job outcomes: Tanner McKee holding Philadelphia's QB job for the rest of the season, J.J. McCarthy taking over for the Giants, and Kendre Miller, Rachaad White, Josh Jacobs and Zach Charbonnet leading their respective backfields. He also expects Tank Dell and Charbonnet back on the field in Week 7. **Claimed:** Oct 20, 2026 **Pundit:** Andrew Erickson — https://missedtakes.co/pundits/andrew-erickson **Outlet:** FantasyPros — https://missedtakes.co/outlets/fantasypros **How it reached us:** published in writing **Original:** https://www.fantasypros.com/2026/10/beyond-the-waiver-wire-fantasy-football-moves-to-make-week-7-2/ 8 checkable claims — 6 depth chart calls and 2 availability calls — each graded on its own rather than as one all-or-nothing call. It names 14 players and teams, each linked to their own record. None of them have settled yet — they grade once their results are in. Of the 6 unsettled calls enough other pundits have weighed in on, this one lands below the rest of the room on every one. > View White as the Washington's RB1 moving forward. *(their words, quoted for attribution)* ## The claims - **Zach Charbonnet to be 1st on the depth chart** - Kind: Depth Chart Calls · About: Zach Charbonnet, Seattle Seahawks - Verdict: not settled yet - **Kendre Miller to be 1st on the depth chart** - Kind: Depth Chart Calls · About: Kendre Miller, New Orleans Saints - Verdict: not settled yet - **J.J.
