The thing about regular 11 on 11 tackle football is the teams with better line play tend to dominate, so it's harder to evaluate the contributions of the skill players sometimes. There is no tackling or blocking in 7 on 7. This allows you to evaluate skill players on all the things they do taking line play out of the equation. It showcases passing game skills (other than blocking) on both sides of the ball, players ability to move in space, cover ground, agility, hands, and all that kind of stuff.

for defenders it shows who's good in coverage and who's not. It also can help you improve on those. The same goes for linebackers who are just tackling machines. Guys with better insticts and reaction times usually stand out here.
Running backs, it shows who has good hands or improving on those that don't. WRs can focus and improve on route running and show off their elusiveness. I'd say it's the more cosmetic part of football where speed, and mental ability is more on display than hitting power and break tackling.
It's a good way to train without risking injury and also focus on the finer points of the sport.
