NFL DFS – Main Slate Optimizer Groups (updated) & Stack Rankings (updated) + Full Game Notes (complete) – Week 8

This article focuses on building lineups with a quality foundation by utilizing the powerful Groups and Rules/Limits tools within the industry’s optimization tools. All of the concepts and pairings included below can also apply to hand-building. The goal is to create lineups with strong correlations among likely point-scorers to maximize the gains from infrequent scoring events within stacks while limiting the likelihood of building inefficient or negatively correlated entries for a full slate of NFL DFS lineups.

This video was made in a former life and features a detailed demonstration of how to apply these concepts in one leading optimizer tool: Fantasy Cruncher – How-To Video

Game notes are updated during the week and initially posted as “work in progress” as they take a long time to create, if teams are missing notes simply check back later in the day/week and they should be updated.

2025 Week 8 DraftKings & FanDuel NFL DFS Stack Rankings

The following stack rankings were created by pairing each team quarterback with his top three scoring options, whether they are three wide receivers, two wide receivers and a tight end, a wide receiver, tight end, and running back, or any viable combination. In some cases, an expensive running back can push the overall price point of his team stack in the value rankings.

Week 8 DraftKings & FanDuel NFL DFS Stacks & Optimizer Groups

Overview

Rules and limits are powerful tools for lineup creation for NFL DFS where our primary focus is creating highly correlated lineups via stacking players from the same game. Lineups will typically be coordinated around the quarterback selection, which informs at least one pass-catcher choice, establishes a budget, eliminates a defense, and sets the tone for the lineup. We will typically look to correlate a quarterback and at least one of his pass-catchers in every lineup, with many of those including a skill player from the opposing team. This player is included to support the stack in a high-scoring game that drives offense on both sides, creating additional correlated scoring potential. Stacking multiple pass-catchers in the same lineup is a sound approach, though there are typically overall ceilings on how much volume is available at any given position. While pass-catching running backs can be prioritized in stacks and group tools, including running backs who are not involved in the passing game is less important at this stage, they will fall naturally into shares as needed. High-volume backs and pass catchers out of the backfield can be included in the groups utilized below, but it is frequently not necessary to do so with the very best players, they arrive in lineups without help.

Rules and limits are typically applied in an optimizer’s Advanced Options menu. Notes are included to illustrate the reasons behind each rule and explain what it does during the lineup creation process. These settings can typically be saved for re-use, which is highly recommended. Saving the groups created below is also a good idea that will save time with updates instead of recreation each week. These groups are created manually, but most optimizers include automated group creators that can help accelerate the curation process.

DraftKings + FanDuel Settings & Advanced Options

Note – Terminology may vary from site to site but these are common functions across most industry tools.

Unique Players Per Lineup– This setting forces the optimizer to utilize at least X new players who were not in Lineup 1 when it creates Lineup 2, and so on. We recommend a setting of at least two unique players, more can be applied depending on the degree of differentiation desired within lineups.

Team Salary– a minimum or maximum salary spend can be applied here as needed, although leaving salary on the table is an easy path toward creating unique lineups while not necessarily making a negative expected value play.

FLEX position– allows restrictions on what positions can be rostered at the FLEX spot. The primary position to restrict is the tight end so that lineups do not include two players from the position. In many industry tools this is a separate option via a checkbox, it can also be handled specifically within groups.

Global Exposure Setting – allows caps on the maximum percentage of lineups a player can appear in within a given pool of lineup construction. This is a powerful tool for shaping lineups but if settings are too low, attempts to build a full set will fall short due to a lack of available players, one of the most common errors in optimizer building. Most optimizers include the ability to calculate ownership caps continuously or at the end of the pool creation process. If caps are calculated continuously, a player with a 25% cap who is utilized in Lineup 1 will not be available for use again until Lineup 5, we recommend turning OFF continuous calculation.

Randomness – provides a random multiplier to each player’s projected point total based on the set values. This valuable tool helps differentiate lineups instead of simply creating them in order of the highest median projected scores. Using some randomness for lineup generation is strongly recommended but the degree to which it is applied is down to personal preference, 15-25% is fine to get started. We suggest heavier randomness to more event-based players like wide receivers while tracking volume-based positions like running backs more toward their median or ceiling projections.

DraftKings + FanDuel Team Stack Rules

This set of rules will force optimizers to build lineups with certain combinations. We are looking to stack at least one skill player, almost always a pass-catcher, with his quarterback while frequently playing a skill player from the opposing team in the lineup. The theory behind this build is that a high-scoring stack will require some response from the opposing team to deliver a ceiling score in most situations. Most optimizers utilize a “complete the sentence” approach for rule creation with selections from drop-down menus following a very straightforward logic. Exceptions to these rules can be added for specific teams and players on most optimizer products.

QB with at least one WR/TE from Same Team (note: It is fine to set this to two or to utilize two versions of this rule, one with WR/TE and one with RB/WR/TE, but we can also refine this via Groups)
optional – QB with at least one RB/WR/TE from the Opposing Team (we typically prefer the pass-catchers but high-volume running backs can be effective here)
QB with at most zero DST from the Same Team (this is a personal preference; high-scoring teams and quarterbacks tend to leave their defenses on the field, exposing them to simple point-scoring negatives)

Limits & Custom Rules and Requirements

Limit rules can be applied to restrict certain combinations from coming together. This is powerful for limiting multiple running backs from the same team or getting overweight to a certain stack within a lineup.

Limit QB/RB/WR/TE from Same Team to three
Limit RB/WR/TE from the Same Team to one unless paired with QB from the Same Team OR the Opposing Team (this prevents multiple players from a team that is not a primary quarterback-based stack)
optional – Limit RB from Same Team to one (we can also do this with WR in a separate rule that adds an “unless paired with QB or opposing QB” but it’s a personal preference for NFL DFS, we typically do not want two pass-catchers from the same team without their quarterback)

We will maintain the list of rules and limits throughout the season, with occasional tweaks. Each week sees another fresh crop of value plays as situations change and injuries create opportunities around the league. These changing roles and emergent value plays are accounted for in creating these groups from week to week. After a large pool of lineups is created utilizing these groups, it is still critical to filter them for factors including ceiling projections and leverage potential. These groups should help ensure that a highly correlated premium set of options that rotates through various combinations is utilized to create the full lineup pool.

Sunday Updates

Any changes and recommended boosts to specific players will be provided in an early morning update each Sunday.

NFL DFS Week 8 Features & Projections

Construction Concept

Team groups are built by utilizing the quarterback as the KEY player in group settings. The quarterback decision is the driving factor in determining which stack the lineup utilizes and which corresponding plays are made to work within the structured requirements. In Fantasy Cruncher, built to specification, each team will have two groups, a team group, and an opponent group, both of which utilize the same quarterback as the key player. Each game will have a total of four groups. This is the best approach to truly capture the requirement of playing individual “run-back” plays from the opposing team. A more basic approach would be to include all of the skill players from a game in each quarterback’s group and rely on rules and limits to restrict any potential overflow. It is highly recommended to save the early season groups as a foundation that will be updated for the rest of the season. The recommended groups will include skill players who have an active role in their offense and provide significant correlation with their quarterback’s scoring, often bell-cow running backs who do not specialize in the passing game will not be included in groups as they are projected highly and appear on their own in basically correct distributions, while also not always providing the strongest positive correlation plays. Stacking quarterbacks with pass-catchers and allowing running backs to fall into the lanes created by settings, available salary, and randomness should create a well-distributed set of quality lineups. These groups are updated weekly to account for changes in utilization, schemes, injuries, target shares, and more.

Team Groups for DraftKings & FanDuel – Week 8

The goal is to create a large pool of well-built lineups that can be utilized in any large-field GPP contest. Our approach is to build far more lineups than needed and utilize a sorting table or sim process to filter to the best set of entries. The lineups created in these crunches should provide a broad distribution that includes some of the lower-owned high-upside skill players from each stack. Applying boosts is critical in pushing and pulling ownership to individual players within their team’s stacked lineups if they appear too much or too little.

The groups below are designed so that each quarterback will have two groups to create, one with his skill players and another with the opposing team. A more basic approach would be to add them all to one large group with an “at least three” and let rules and limits set things, but there is a more granular level of control in creating them separately.

Utilizing two groups also allows us to place running backs into the “run-back” position in certain teams while not including them in the primary stack for their team. This is useful when a situation has an extremely highly projected running back that does not necessarily fit into his team’s passing game. These players are threaded throughout the following construction recommendations.

Note for all optimizers the rules can be utilized to force bring-back plays in some sets of crunches and turned off for others as a global function instead of changing each group to “exactly one” bring-back play, wherever applicable, but it will apply to all teams.

Atlanta Falcons

Game Total: 45.0 / ATL – 7.5 (26.25)

Offense: 45.90% rush / 54.10% pass / 18.3 ppg / 4.6 ypa rush / 7.1 ypa pass

oppDEF: 5.2 ypa rush / 7.9 ypa pass / 29.3 ppg / 6.76% sack / 0.52% int

Key Player: Kirk Cousins (Michael Penix Jr. is out)

Setting: at least one / exactly two (these can be alternated in a variety of lineup builds)

Team Group: Drake London, Bijan Robinson, Kyle Pitts Sr., Darnell Mooney, Tyler Allgeier (on/off), KhaDarel Hodge (large field), Casey Washington (very large field)

Opposing Setting: at most one / exactly one (these can be alternated in a variety of lineup builds)

Opposing Group: De’Von Achane, Jaylen Waddle, Malik Washington, Nick Westbrook-Ikhine, Tanner Conner

Game Notes:

Quarterback

The Falcons rate as one of the top stacks of the week even with veteran Kirk Cousins stepping in for starter Michael Penix Jr., that’s what a matchup against Miami does for teams this year. Cousins got in on the action during the team’s Week 3 game at Carolina, closing things out with 29 yards on 5-7 passing. The veteran threw for 3,508 yards with 18 touchdowns and 16 interceptions over 14 games last season and was last truly relevant in 2022 with Minnesota, completing 424-643 passes for 4,547 yards with 29 touchdowns and 14 interceptions that season. At 36, Cousins probably does not have that gear, but he also is unlikely to need it to put up a solid score in leading this stack, given the opponent and skill players on his side. Cousins rates as QB13 by points but QB1 by value for only $4,400 on DraftKings, and the apparently unexpected starter is just $6,000 on FanDuel, landing him as QB13 by points but QB2 by value on the blue site.

Running Backs

Bijan Robinson is pushing this stack up the board with a monster projection against Miami’s giving rush defense. The Dolphins allow a ridiculous 5.2 yards per rush attempt on the season, ranking 30th, while also giving up 7.9 yards per pass attempt to rank 29th. Robinson, meanwhile, gains an outstanding 5.4 yards per rush attempt and another 10.0 yards per target on 6.5 targets per game in the passing attack. Robinson is one of the most heavily-involved running backs in the game, racking up 22.7 potential touches per week to this point. Robinson has scored twice on the ground, losing a few chances to his involved teammate. The productive connection in the passing game has resulted in another two touchdowns and Robinson sees regular chances in scoring range with six red zone targets overall this year. The running back is going to be absurdly popular on both site in such an obvious spot but he is some of the best chalk one can find. Bijan Robinson’s Week 8 projection is one of the highest raw fantasy totals at any position this season, he ranks as an easy RB1 by points on both sites and dips to just RB3 by value across the board despite the hefty sticker.

Of course, Tyler Allgeier seems almost destined to score twice while gaining 11 yards on three carries to bend Bijan’s day. The running back has a steady role in this offense, pulling 9.5 rush attempts and 3.3 targets per game in 2025. Allgeier gains just 3.6 yards per rush attempt but has already poached three touchdowns from his superstar teammate to stand as the team leader in rushing touchdowns. Allgeier is not much more than a DFS mixer, or spoiler, depending on how he is utilized. This is RB26/28 and RB25/30 across DraftKings and FanDuel respectively.

Receivers & Tight Ends

Drake London will see strong opportunities in the passing game with Cousins at the wheel, the offense should operate somewhat differently in the absence of Penix and it could directly benefit the team’s leading receiver. London gains a tremendous 2.23 yards per route run over 35.0 routes per game, drawing a team-leading 32.0% target share on routes run. The receiver has found the end zone twice and works with big play potential at a 10.1-yard average depth of target for a 39.51% air yards share. In what should be a big but heavily utilized DFS spot, London is WR5 by points and WR4 by value on DraftKings and WR5/6 on the FanDuel slate.

The presence of Cousins could be a push for Darnell Mooney in this offense as well. Mooney has been on and off the field, playing in parts of four games but missing two others this season. The receiver caught 64 passes for 992 yards and five touchdowns last season, gaining 9.4 yards per target, so his 7.0 yards per target and 1.32 yards per route run on the season are discouraging marks. Mooney is too talented to struggle against this defense, he sees regular chances with 5.3 targets per game but that amounts to just a 10.7% target rate on routes run, given the many mouths to feed in the offense. Mooney is clearly separated from the top options in this stack but that makes him an excellent differentiator. His 14.5-yard average depth of target puts him in striking distance of a significant DFS day any time his team has the ball. Mooney deserves shares at WR23/23 and WR27/33 across sites in Week 8.

Kyle Pitts Sr. checks in as a mid-ranked TE7/9 on DraftKings and TE6/5 on FanDuel. Pitts sees 6.3 targets per game, though he spiked to 10 targets in the team’s most recent matchup. The tight end has a single touchdown on the season but he is targeted at a 19.3% rate on routes run, ranking second among regular pass catchers, and he has drawn three chances in the red zone, putting him behind Robinson and London but ahead of Mooney and others. Pitts is a capable piece both in and out of stacks, while his slate-breaking performances can be few and far between, there is upside in every corner with the Falcons in Week 8.

Casey Washington, David Sills V, and KhaDarel Hodge drop outside of the top-65 wide receiver options with all of the volume required among the top options in this offense. Washington sees 3.3 targets per game across the three games he played this season, but six of those came in Week 1 with three in Week 4 and two each of the past two games. Sills V, meanwhile, ran 37 routes over the last two games and did not see a single target, he has drawn two opportunities all season. Hodge barely gets on the field with most of his action coming on special teams.

The Falcons rate as a strong stack in Week 8 even with the change at quarterback, in fact there is a fair argument to be made that Kirk Cousins represents a bit of a potential boost in the passing game. Either way, Atlanta rates as Stack 4 by points and by value on DraftKings and sits as Stack 3 by points and Stack 2 by vale on FanDuel on the strength of several excellent skill players against a terrible defense. Bijan Robinson is the easy go-to for standalone shares and in stacks, he functions in pricey +2 situations with London, and either can be paired with down-board options for differentiation. Mooney and Pitts are both playable in and out of stacks from the mid-range and Allgeier is at least worth consideration for a few cheap unowned touchdown darts.

Baltimore Ravens

Game Total: 45.0 / BAL -2.5 (23.75)

Offense: 43.69% rush / 68.71% pass / 24.0 ppg / 5.3 ypa rush / 7.6 ypa pass

oppDEF: 5.3 ypa rush / 7.7 ypa pass / 25.8 ppg / 6.52% sack / 6.40% int

Key Player: Tyler Huntley (Lamar Jackson will sit again in Week 8)

Setting: at least one / exactly two (these can be alternated in a variety of lineup builds)

Team Group: Zay Flowers, Rashod Bateman, Derrick Henry (on/off), Mark Andrews, DeAndre Hopkins, Tylan Wallace (large field), Justice Hill (large field)

Opposing Setting: at most one / exactly one (these can be alternated in a variety of lineup builds)

Opposing Group: Rome Odunze, D’Andre Swift (Q), DJ Moore, Colston Loveland, Olamide Zaccheaus, Luther Burden III, Kyle Monangai (on/off)

Game Notes:

Quarterback

The implied team total for the Ravens plummeted with the pivot from Lamar Jackson to Tyler Huntley on Saturday. Jackson will miss at least one more week and the Ravens dip from a formerly robust 28.25-point total to just 23.75 and from -7.5-point favorites to just -2.5. Huntley ran the offense for 25 snaps in Week 6 against the Rams, completing 10 of 15 pass attempts for 68 yards, or 4.5 yards per pass attempt. The quarterback added 39 yards on three rush attempt and provides most of his DFS scoring potential on the ground. From 2021-24, Huntley threw 470 NFL passes, completing 304 of them for 2,771 yards with 11 touchdowns and 10 interceptions, adding five career rushing touchdowns to the mix with solid gains on the average rush attempt. Huntley is a low-end QB15 by points but stands tall as QB2 by value at just $4,300 on DraftKings. At a slightly higher relative price on FanDuel, Huntley is QB15 by points but QB6 by value, this would be a purely price-driven play on either site.

Running Backs

Derrick Henry seems likely to benefit from a ground-focused attack in Week 8. The running back gains a still-strong 5.0 yards per rush attempt, good for 0.7 yards over expectation per rush attempt. Henry has a 7.95% explosive rush rate and a 4.55% broken tackle rate, gaining just 1.9 yards after contact per attempt while punching the ball in for four rushing touchdowns in six games. Henry’s scoring has been a bit erratic, he had a monster Week 1 game with 169 yards and a pair of touchdowns on 18 carries but dipped to just 23 yards on 11 chances without a score the following week and went from Week 2 through Week 5 without gaining more than 50 yards. Henry scored twice over that stretch then popped for 122 yards on 24 carries in the team’s Week 6 game, a potential harbinger of the volume and upside he will carry into this week’s matchup against a Bears defense that allows a league-worst 5.3 yards per rush attempt. Henry is a strong RB4 by points and RB1 by value on DraftKings, he is RB5/5 on FanDuel at a higher but worthwhile relative price and could gain ground in updates.

Justice Hill slots in as a capable number two behind a workhorse who soaks up most of the potential chances. Hill sees a steady stream of targets with 3.8 chances per game in the passing attack but is limited to just 2.5 rush attempts per game despite gaining an excellent 5.9 yards per attempt. Hill can break a play on any given touch, he has a 6.67% broken tackle rate and has put a score on the board in both the rushing and passing game. Hill is no more than a DFS mixer as RB27/27 and RB29/27 across sites but it would not surprise to see him poach a touchdown.

Receivers & Tight Ends

Zay Flowers gains 2.3 yards per route run over 30.7 routes per contest and a 29.3% target rate on those routes but both the volume and quality of chances are likely to take a dip in Week 8. Flowers will still be the lead option at the wide receiver position, but with all expectations leaning toward the rushing game he lands as just a mid-board receiver on both sites. Flowers drew 10 targets to lead the team in Week 6, he caught six of them for an empty 46 yards and was irrelevant for DFS scoring. The receiver has not been over 75 yards in any of the team’s games since Week 1, though he hit 75 exactly in Week 2 and has been over 70 three total times in that stretch. Flowers caught seven passes for 143 yards and a touchdown in Week 1, he has not been in the end zone with the ball since. The Baltimore receiver dips to WR17 by points and WR22 by value on DraftKings, he is WR16/26 on FanDuel and badly needs Lamar Jackson to return to pay off his excellent big play ability.

Rashod Bateman checks in as a lousy WR47/51 and WR49/49 and sees almost no value outside of a broken play with Huntley at the wheel. Bateman is already limited by volume with several big names ahead of him in the pecking order. The receiver draws just 3.5 targets per game, a 13.4% target share on his 24.5 routes per game, though he has earned no more than that by posting just 0.82 yards per route run this season. Bateman operates at a significant 11.6-yard average depth of target that does thrust him to a 20.24% air yards share despite the light volume, but he only has one touchdown on the board over six weeks and has been limited to two or three targets in each of the last three games.

Mark Andrews is a consideration as TE10/12 and TE11/18, but he would need to operate as a safety value for heavy target volume when Huntley takes to the air with most of the upside coming from touchdown potential. Andrews has two touchdown catches on the season, tying him for the team lead in the lackluster passing attack. The veteran remains steady with 1.28 yards per route run on a 6.7-yard average depth of target over 22.7 routes per game, he sees a bit of a tug for chances from Isaiah Likely at times, but that has been less of an issue this season and Andrews is the go-to option in scoring territory with three red zone targets. Andrews is a functional piece in value stacks of Ravens, he is far less appealing as a standalone tight end.

DeAndre Hopkins has two touchdowns this season but has not seen the end zone since Week 2 after getting there on low volume in each of the first two contests. Overall, Hopkins is good for just 11.5 routes and 2.2 targets per contest, though he did see a season-high four chances in the team’s Week 6 game before the bye. Hopkins gains a team-leading 2.58 yards per route run, a tremendous mark that is artificially bolstered by the low overall involvement. The veteran is a fair mixer on limited chances but he is no more than a dart throw at one cheap touchdown grab.

The Ravens are an odd fit as Stack 12 by points with no real faith in their quarterback and most of the appeal going through the running back who hardly gets involved in the pass game, they rank as Stack 2 by value on the DraftKings slate but much of that is driven by Derrick Henry and the sheer rock-bottom quarterback pricing. The team is less problematic as just Stack 12 by points and Stack 13 by value on the FanDuel board. Overall, there are reasons to at least consider a few stacks of Ravens, particularly with the strong value returns on DraftKings. Baltimore should at least benefit from facing a Chicago defense that is league-worst for yards per attempt against the run while also allowing 7.7 yards per pass attempt to sit 25th.

Buffalo Bills

Game Total: 46.5 / BUF -7.5 (27.0)

Offense: 49.21% rush / 50.79% pass / 27.8 ppg / 4.9 ypa rush / 7.9 ypa pass

oppDEF: 4.1 ypa rush / 6.7 ypa pass / 21.7 ppg / 4.74% sack / 2.71% int

Key Player: Josh Allen

Setting: at least one / exactly two (these can be alternated in a variety of lineup builds)

Team Group: Khalil Shakir, Keon Coleman, James Cook III (on/off), Dalton Kincaid (Q), Tyrell Shavers, Curtis Samuel, Dawson Knox (on/off), Elijah Moore (large field)

Opposing Setting: at most one / exactly one (these can be alternated in a variety of lineup builds)

Opposing Group: Tetairoa McMillan, Xavier Legette, Jalen Coker, Chuba Hubbard (on/off), Rico Dowdle (on/off), Ja’Tavion Sanders (on/off), Tommy Tremble (on/off)

Game Notes:

Quarterback

The Bills picked up another half-point of implied team total on Saturday with minor gains for fantasy point potential distributed across the core players. Buffalo looks like an easily playable mid-board option against a Carolina defense that has been surprisingly capable this season. Josh Allen leads his Bills into action as QB1 by points on both sites, though he lands differently for value as QB13 on DraftKings but QB5 on FanDuel. Allen could win a contest on either site, even at the heavy DraftKings price. The Buffalo quarterback throws for 232.8 yards per game with significant upside beyond that into bonus territory on any given slate. Allen gains 7.8 yards per pass attempt and has 11 touchdowns on the board against just four interceptions. The quarterback added another three touchdowns to his tally while gaining 5.5 yards per rush attempt over 7.7 carries per game, he is active and involved in the ground game, particularly around the end zone. Allen is an excellent option on either site but the Carolina defense has been a bit stingy in some good spots, overall they allow just 4.1 yards per rush and 6.7 yards per pass attempt, ranking 13th in both categories.

Running Backs

James Cook III has been tremendous on the ground over 17.8 carries per game. Cook gains 5.0 yards per rush attempt with five rushing touchdowns in six games, though he failed to score in either Week 5 or 6 ahead of the team’s bye last weekend. Cook has been over 100 rushing yards three times already this season, adding a fourth game with more than 100 from scrimmage in Week 1. The running back has shaken defenders with a game-changing 12.15% broken-tackle rate and 2.9 yards after contact per rush attempt, he has explosive upside and gains 1.0 yards over expectation per rush attempt while also drawing chances in the passing game. Cook sees 2.3 targets per game and has a pair of red zone targets on the board this year but is yet to score on a catch. James Cook III is RB8 by points and RB5 by value on DraftKings, he is RB8 across the board on FanDuel and works both in and out of stacks.

Both Ty Johnson and Ray Davis rank outside of the top-40 by points, with Johnson landing as RB39 by DraftKings value as the best shared mark, they are hardly relevant for DFS action outside of one broken play on limited touches or the unforeseen above them on the depth chart.

Receivers & Tight Ends

Khalil Shakir slightly outpaces his teammates once again in Week 8 projections. Shakir sees a 19.4% target rate on routes run over his 28.0 routes per game while teammate Keon Coleman draws a team-leading 20.0% rate over 29.2 routes per game but has been slightly less reliable. Both receivers are skilled, Shakir hauls in 4.2 of his chances on a 76.47% catchable target rate from the team’s star quarterback over his short 5.1-yard average depth of target. Coleman works further down the field at a 10.7-yard ADOT, catching 4.0 passes for 1.35 yards per route run on a 71.43% catchable target rate on the deeper chances. Shakir can rack up catches and make plays once the ball is squared away, the receiver gains 8.3 yards after contact per catch, an outstanding 2.6 yards after the catch over expectation per reception. Shakir retains scoring value despite the short targeting, he has seen seven chances in the red zone and has a pair of touchdown catches on the board among Allen’s 11 touchdown passes, tying him with Coleman for the group lead among Buffalo wide receivers. Shakir rates as WR16 by points and WR13 by value on FanDuel, he is WR17/17 on the DraftKings slate. Keon Coleman is WR21 by points and WR24 by value on DraftKings, he is WR19 by points but leaps to WR10 by value on FanDuel, surpassing Shakir’s value mark by several spots at what will almost certainly be lower public popularity for a similar projection.

Dalton Kincaid leads Buffalo pass-catchers with three touchdowns. The tight end draws 4.8 targets per game, sitting about a target behind the two lead wide receivers. Kincaid works at a strong 9.3-yard average depth of target, putting him further down the field than Shakir on most of his 22.4 routes per game, over which he sees a 13.7% target share and a team-leading 83.33% catchable target rate from Allen. Given the solid nature of those opportunities on a big-play-adjacent average depth of target, Kincaid is an interesting mixer in standalone tight end shares and a fairly high priority in stacks of Bills. Dalton Kincaid is TE8 by points but TE15 by value on DraftKings, he is TE9/9 on the FanDuel slate with slightly more potential.

Tyrell Shavers is a dart throw from outside of the top-50 wide receivers at just a few projected fantasy points. Shavers draws 1.7 targets over 9.8 routes per game and has not seen the end zone or a red zone chance this season. Veteran Curtis Samuel has a touchdown on the board with 2.0 targets per game, matching the volume that goes in the direction of depth tight end Dawson Knox, who has also scored in the passing game. Samuel runs 16.0 routes per game and Knox runs 17.5, while playing 38.2% of the snaps. Between the three options, Knox is the most likely touchdown scorer by a slim margin but they are all thin options for DFS contests, but any could see an uptick in opportunities with Joshua Palmer out of action in Week 8.

The Bills are Stack 7 by points on both sites, they look like a slightly worse value fit as Stack 9 by points-per-dollar on DraftKings while they move up slightly to Stack 6 by value on the FanDuel slate. Josh Allen is an appealing option through any lens, the quarterback offers position-leading potential on any given slate and can punch touchdowns in either on his own or in tandem with a teammate. Allen is playable in “naked” shares but stacks are the go-to, the quarterback can be paired with either of his lead receivers in “skinny” builds or both in full stacks, and the team features strong options at tight end and running back, both of whom get involved in the passing game with regularity, as well as cheap depth across positions. The one thing standing in Buffalo’s way is Carolina’s upstart mid-ranked defense but that is not a major obstacle for a team with a 27.0-point implied team total that ranks third behind only the equestrian upside of the Broncos and Colts.

Game Notes:

Quarterback

The third team in our first four with a backup quarterback at the helm sees Andy Dalton taking over for Bryce Young for the Panthers in Week 8 (Young is still technically just doubtful but seems highly unlikely to play with a high ankle sprain). The 37-year-old veteran is another still-capable option who can unleash a fair fantasy scoring total on any given slate at a fairly cheap price. Dalton has thrown a handful of passes in two appearances this season, totaling 138 yards with a touchdown and zero interceptions on 5-6 passing in one outing and 4-7 in another. The veteran signal-caller got into action six times last season, completing 106 of 160 pass attempts for 989 yards with seven touchdowns but he also threw six interceptions. Dalton was last productive in 2022 when he threw 18 touchdowns in 14 games with nine interceptions and 7.6 yards per pass attempt, already a four-year high at that point in his decline. The quarterback has not approached that mark since, though this year’s productivity amounts to a 9.1 YPA mark that would stand as a career-high if it held over heavy volume. Dalton has a few interesting weapons in action, he rates as QB17 by points but QB10 by value on DraftKings and QB16/13 on FanDuel with the Panthers landing slightly worse as an overall stack.

Running Backs

As feared, there was a bit of a split at the running back position with Chuba Hubbard returning to action in Week 7. Hubbard carried the ball 14 times but failed to find much relevance against the Jets, gaining just 31 yards on the ground in his return from a two-week absence. The running back caught two of three targets for another 24 yards but did not do much with 38 snaps with the offense. Rico Dowdle was tremendous in Weeks 5 and 6 while Hubbard was out of action, he gained 206 yards on 23 carries against the Dolphins then followed it with 183 yards on 30 carries against the Cowboys, adding 28 yards on three catches in the Week 5 game and 56 more on four catches, including a touchdown, in Week 6. Despite the production, Dowdle did not fully usurp Hubbard, he did pick up 17 carries in Week 7 but that volume came on fewer snaps with the offense, he played 33 snaps to Hubbard’s 38. Dowdle gained 79 yards on the ground and caught one of two targets for another 17 yards, failing to score or crack 100 yards from scrimmage for the first time in three weeks. The trend is likely to be ongoing unless Hubbard has truly fallen off at just 3.7 yards per rush attempt to Dowdle’s 5.6. Between the two, we prefer Dowdle’s production but fear the split with Hubbard as RB17/16 and RB17/19 and Dowdle as RB19/23 and RB19/21

Receivers & Tight Ends

Tetairoa McMillan stands a chance to benefit if Dalton manages a throwback performance against a Bills pass defense that has been capable against the pass with just 6.6 yards allowed per attempt. McMillan gains 1.74 yards per route run over a team-leading 34.0 route per game, drawing a 23.9% target share on routes run to lead the group of pass-catchers. McMillan operates at a heavy 11.2-yard average depth of target, combined with the volume that creates a massive 39.97% air yards share but he has been limited to just two scores by a 62.26% catchable target rate from his quarterback on the season. If Dalton delivers a better ball downfield, as he has in extremely limited attempts this season, McMillan could be in for a big day. The receiver is WR12 by points and WR14 by value on DraftKings, he is WR14/11 on the FanDuel slate.

Xavier Legette and Jalen Coker should be expected to battle a bit for opportunities as the season continues, though Coker drew just two targets and did not catch either, while running 17 routes on 26 snaps with the offense last week in his season debut. Legette had his best week of the season, posting 92 yards on nine catches over a season-high 11 targets, including a touchdown. The score represented his second touchdown catch in three weeks, though the other came in a Week 5 game against Miami’s ugly pass defense in which the receiver managed just two catches for 31 yards on three targets. Between the two options, Legette is slightly preferred to Coker again this week, though Coker probably possesses the stronger big play upside at deeper average targeting. Legette is WR30/29 on DraftKings but WR37/37 on FanDuel, while Coker is WR37/36 and WR43/41 across sites.

Ja’Tavion Sanders and Tommy Tremble slide into the mix as low-ranked tight end options who both slip outside of the positional top-20. Sanders is TE21/20 and TE22/22 across sites with Tremble ranking as TE28 across the board on both. Sanders draws four targets per game but gains just 0.98 yards per target and has failed to score despite six red zone chances this season. Sanders’ 75.0% catchable target rate is vastly superior to marks carried by the team’s leading wide receivers but he has done very little with it, he is slightly preferred to Tremble but low priority overall.

The Panthers are just Stack 15/18 on DraftKings and Stack 15/15 on FanDuel, the presence of Dalton could push any one of the receivers, and most likely McMillan, up the board for individual scoring and either of the running backs could provide gains against a leaky Bills rush defense, the pieces may be more valuable than the whole in this case.

Chicago Bears

Game Total: 45.0 / CHI +2.5 (21.25)

Game Notes:

Quarterback

The Bears gain ground by virtue of the diminishment of their opponent at the quarterback spot, though that did not benefit them with a 21.25-point implied team total that did not budge as the Ravens plummeted. The point spread stands at just 2.5 in Baltimore’s favor, suggesting a far more competitive game environment that could spread the offense out a bit on Chicago’s side, rather than pushing them into the passing game early. Chicago ranks as a mid-board scoring stack with a bit of value potential around Caleb Williams, potentially functioning best as a skinny stack. Williams throws 30.83 passes per game but his completion percentage sits 9.7 points below expectation and he manages a mere 225.17 yards per game on 7.3 yards per attempt despite a healthy 8.2 intended air yards per attempt. With nine passing touchdowns and another two on the ground, Williams has been a roller coaster for DFS scoring. The quarterback stood out in Week 3 against the Cowboys, a running theme this season. Williams had a season-high 298 passing yards with four touchdowns in that game, he has not been beyond 252 yards or two touchdown passes in a game before or since this season. Williams did have a decent day against the Commanders in Week 6, completing 17 of 29 passes for 252 yards, throwing one touchdown and running another score in for his second rushing touchdown of the season. Caleb Williams is QB8 by points and QB6 by value on DraftKings and QB8 by points and QB7 by value on FanDuel against a Baltimore defense that has been gouged for 7.1 yards per pass and 4.5 yards per rush attempt on the season. Baltimore yields a league-worst 2.33 passing touchdowns per game, they are a targetable defense for a quarterback who is highly capable of spiking big DFS days.

Running Backs

D’Andre Swift remains questionable but is reportedly likely to play while nursing a groin injury in Week 8. Swift has been good this season with 4.7 yards per rush attempt on 14.8 carries per game, though he is seeing increased pressure from rookie Kyle Monangai who gains 4.6 yards per attempt on 5.8 carries per game. Swift was fantastic in Week 7 against New Orleans, pounding the ground for 124 yards and a touchdown on 19 carries while adding another 14 yards on his lone catch and target. Swift has been over 100 rushing yards in two straight games and he stands a fair chance to get there again with Baltimore allowing 4.5 yards per rush attempt to sit 22nd in football. The Ravens allow 1.5 touchdowns per game on the ground, coughing up significant DFS scoring to running backs. D’Andre Swift ranks as RB15 by points and RB14 by value on DraftKings, he is RB14/12 on the FanDuel slate but could gain a bit of ground in updates going into Sunday.

Kyle Monangai ranks outside of the top-30 running backs on DraftKings as RB30/31, he is RB28/28 on the FanDuel slate. Monangai is still the clear second option here, despite big play ability as demonstrated over 13 carries in Week 7, a season-high mark for volume. Monangai gained 81 yards and scored a rushing touchdown in that matchup, adding 13 receiving yards on two catches over three targets while running 10 routes for the second-straight week. Monangai is coming on for production and demanding a bit of additional involvement, but he needs to break a play or get the right call in scoring position, he has seen a red zone carry in five straight games, including three in last week’s matchup.

Receivers & Tight Ends

Rome Odunze leads a talented bunch of pass-catchers again in Week 8, ranking as WR8 by points on both sites. Odunze is a pricey but worthwhile option both in standalone shares and in Bears stacks, he is the ideal option to pair with Williams in skinny Chicago stacks. Odunze has caught five of the nine touchdown passes thrown by Williams this season, easily leading the group. The receiver gains 1.79 yards per route run, a fair but not star-making number that needs to improve as the team gets better. Odunze is productive with 5.6 yards after contact per reception, 0.9 yards above expectation after the catch per catch. The receiver draws a huge 13.3-yard average depth of target for a 43.42% air yards share that makes him the most significant targets anywhere on this slate. Odunze’s mark is slate-leading by more than two percentage points over the field, with Ja’Marr Chase’s 41.12% mark sitting second. No other receiver on this slate sees better than a 40.0% share, and only three see more than 38.0% (McMillan 39.97%, Jeudy 39.55%, London 39.51%, Olave 39.20%). Odunze sits as WR8 by points on both sites but ranks as WR16 by value on DraftKings at a $6,300 price tag. That number pales in comparison to the $8,100 the site demands for Ja’Marr Chase and sits $100 behind Drake London, but it is the next-most expensive among these six leading air yards share options on the slate. Odunze is a better value option as WR7 by value on the FanDuel slate. The fact that Odunze’s terrific production this season comes in spite of just a 58.7% catchable target rate from his quarterback is stunning, the receiver could easily break a slate.

DJ Moore is a good alternative to, or pairing with, Odunze among Bears pass-catchers. Moore draws 5.2 targets per game, second to Odunze on the team while tying with Olamide Zaccheaus for a 16.80% target share on routes run. Moore runs 32.2 routes per contest to the 22.2 that Zaccheaus runs, however, creating clear separation for DFS scoring potential between the two options. While Zaccheaus is no more than a mixer on the fringes at WR42/37 and WR39/39 across DraftKings and FanDuel, Moore is far more probable to be slate-relevant. The receiver has one touchdown catch this season but has seen three red zone targets while putting up a middling 1.34 yards per route run. Moore picks up an 8.3-yard average depth of target but draws just a 70.97% catchable target rate from Williams, slightly limiting his potential more than what has impacted Odunze at an even lower mark. Moore is WR19/25 and WR20/23 across sites this week, he functions better as a +2 or a +1 alternative in stacks but can be deployed in standalone shares as well.

Colston Loveland should own the target share at tight end with Cole Kmet out of action in Week 8. Loveland caught five passes for 35 yards combined over the past two games, drawing seven targets on 29 routes run in the two games and seeing a spike in snaps in Week 7 with Kmet knocked out of action. The tight end missed Week 4 but has failed to impress on the whole, he has just three catches outside of the production in Weeks 6 and 7 and has failed to score. Loveland did see a red zone target in each of the last two games and Kmet has a touchdown on three red zone targets that should swing toward Loveland, giving him a bit of added potential to find his first NFL score. The Bears drafted Loveland 10th overall this season, there needs to be ongoing development for the draft capital invested and this would be an outstanding week to get rolling. Loveland is TE16 by points but TE5 by value on DraftKings, he is TE16/11 on the FanDuel slate. As his scoring will likely live and die with the volume and accuracy Caleb Williams manages, Loveland is best utilized in stacks of Bears, his value pushes him to relevance as a standalone tight end on DraftKings.

With Zaccheaus landing around WR40 on a 37.5% snap share and 22.2 routes run per contest, it is no surprise that rookie Luther Burden III is slightly lower ranked, landing ag WR46/46 and WR45/47 across DraftKings and FanDuel. Burden draws just 2.3 targets per game in limited action in his rookie season but delivers a massive 2.97 yards per route run over his 9.7 routes each week. Those flashy marks mask limited overall production in the receiver’s first year and are created by one big performance in the small sample. Burden caught three of three targets for a gigantic 101 yards and a touchdown in Week 3 against Dallas, his next-highest yardage total was 51 yards on 4-4 receiving in Week 6 against Washington. Burden gained 22 yards but caught just one of two targets over his 10 routes last week, he is a talented dart throw with slate-bending ability on just a few chances.

The Bears are Stack 11 by points on both sites, an entirely playable group that adds upside both as a collective and in individual shares. As Stack 14 by value on DraftKings the pieces may be most valuable in other lineups but the team still has potential in skinny shares. There is a bit more room for Chicago shares on the FanDuel board as Stack 9 by value. In any sense, Rome Odunze is one of the premium wide receivers of Week 8, and D’Andre Swift should be positioned to have productive DFS day.

Game Notes:

Quarterback

Between Kirk Cousins, Andy Dalton, and Joe Flacco, we are begging to doubt the calendar’s notion that the current year is late 2025. Flacco tops the ancient group of quarterbacks against a gettable Jets squad in Week 8, ranking as QB9 by fantasy points on both sites and sitting in strong position for value as well. The oldest quarterback in the mix is QB5 by value on DraftKings and QB8 by value on the FanDuel slate, he is surrounded by talented skill players and draws a Jets defense that yields 7.1 yards per pass attempt to sit just 19th in the league while gaining pressure on the quarterback at just a 15.8% clip with 10 sacks and zero interceptions. Flacco operates with two of the best targets in the sport and the team should fully unleash their potential again this week. Flacco threw the ball a ridiculous 45 times in his Bengals debut against the Packers in Week 6 then topped it with 47 pass attempts against the Steelers last week, including 26 targets to Ja’Marr Chase alone in the two contests. Flacco has five touchdowns in two games in the new souped-up offense and looks like a middle-aged dad getting a sports car after his kids have gone off to college. The quarterback threw for 342 yards and three touchdowns last week, with 162 yards and a score going to Chase. Flacco is yet to throw an interception in a Cincinnati uniform, though he threw six over four games earlier in the year with Cleveland. Flacco is a good option for production and value with excellent skill players dragging him to quality in Week 8.

Running Backs

Chase Brown has seen limited touches this season but he finally bounced up the board with a productive Week 7 game and could continue to benefit from Flacco’s more-steady hand at the tiller. Brown gained 108 yards on just 11 carries last week, though he lost eight on two catches over four targets and 28 routes run. The 11 carries were Brown’s most since Week 2 when he handled the ball 16 times, already a dip from 21 carries in Week 1. Overall, the running back sees just 12.1 carries per game and turns them into 3.6 yards per rush attempt. Brown has managed to creep slightly above expectation but that amounts to just 0.1 yards over expectation per attempt this season. The running back has one rushing touchdown and has not scored in the passing game despite seeing 4.0 chances each week. As just RB14 by points and RB10 by value on DraftKings and RB15/16 on FanDuel, Chase Brown is not much more than a mixer with the potential to play spoiler for passing game touchdowns in this stack more visible than anything.

Samaje Perine is RB29/26 and RB27/25 across sites on limited involvement. Perine gains 4.5 yards per rush attempt but carries the ball only 3.1 times per game, adding very little to the mix on 1.1 targets per matchup but he has seen a bit of an uptick in the past few games with 13 carries over the past two contests. The running back is no more than a dart throw at a cheap touchdown, and he is barely that much for DFS quality.

Receivers & Tight Ends

Ja’Marr Chase is a star who gains 2.36 yards per route run over 38.0 routes per game, the second-highest weekly routes total on this slate after Denver’s Courtland Sutton. Chase draws a 33.5% target share on routes run, leading the team by about 15 percentage points and topping the entire slate while posting the slate’s second-best air yards share at 41.12%. Chase has five touchdown catches on the season, four of which have come in the past three games, with one in each of Flacco’s starts. The receiver is one of the most popular and expensive weekly plays at his position and nothing about that should change in Week 8, still, his scoring potential is nearly unrivaled and he lands as WR1 by points on both sites. Ja’Marr chase is WR1/6 on DraftKings and WR1/4 on FanDuel this week.

Tee Higgins has faded into the woodwork over the first half of the 2025 campaign, gaining a limited 1.24 yards per route run over 36.3 routes per game. Higgins sees 6.4 targets per contest and can spike big volume games with Flacco slinging the ball all over the field. Higgins tied a season-high with eight targets in Flacco’s first game then surpassed that mark with 10 last week, hauling in six of those chances for 96 yards and his third touchdown of the season. Higgins is no slouch for explosive play potential, he sees a 12.8-yard average depth of target and draws a 33.88% air yards share, marks that would lead many teams. Higgins is a solid 1A in the passing attack, even though he looks more like a 3 so far this season. The receiver is WR10 by points on both sites, he is WR8 by value at a cheap $5,600 on DraftKings but slips to WR16 by value on FanDuel for a slightly higher $7,000.

Noah Fant is just a mixer as TE19/18 and TE18/19 across sites in the highly-regarded Week 8 stacking option. Fant is a capable pass-catcher at the position but the volume strongly favors his teammates. The tight end has four catches on four targets in each of Flacco’s first two games with the team and he did score his second touchdown of the season last week, while gaining 44 yards on a season-high 37 routes run. Fant should easily be the lead option in a group that includes Drew Sample and Tanner Hudson but he falls well behind the team’s wide receivers with a 9.2% target share on routes run.

Andrei Iosivas is just WR50/50 and WR51/52 across sites. The receiver draws a 9.1-yard average depth of target for a 10.86% air yards share and has big play ability that should be enhanced with Flacco in charge. The receiver caught just one of four targets for five yards in Week 6 but came away with three catches for 49 yards on four targets over 32 routes run last week. Iosivas will continue to see a few chances each week but he needs to do damage on one or two big scoring plays with his limited targets.

The Bengals are a very interesting option with scoring potential and fair value pricing on both sites as Stack 5/5 on DraftKings and Stack 6/8 on FanDuel. While the most appealing parts are very expensive standalone options, they are very worth the effort when the day ends and they are among positional scoring leaders. Cincinnati is a highly playable option up and down both in and out of stacks in Week 8 but we lean strongly toward the passing game pieces than the running back.

Game Notes:

Quarterback

Dillon Gabriel has failed to impress over a handful of starts, averaging just 182.0 passing yards per game on 35.67 attempts. Gabriel’s CPOE of -6.9 is among the worst on the slate, he is failing to meet even low expectations on a 5.9-yard intended air yards mark while averaging just 5.1 yards per pass attempt. The quarterback has three touchdown passes and has at least managed to avoid throwing an interception in three full games. Gabriel has failed to throw for even 225 yards in any of his appearances, he threw two touchdown passes while gaining 190 yards on 19-33 passing in his Week 5 outing against Minnesota and had a cheap touchdown in mop up duty in Week 2 but failed to throw a touchdown pass in either of the past two games despite facing Pittsburgh and Miami in those contests, two of the more gettable defenses in the game. This week against a New England defense that has also been vulnerable against the pass with 8.1 yards per attempt ranking them 30th in the league, Gabriel has every opportunity to pop for value, provided we discount both the level of his talent and that of his teammates as well. Gabriel is just QB20 by points and QB17 by value on DraftKings, he is QB20/20 on FanDuel, most of this team’s apparent value in stacking is created by their running back.

Running Backs

Quinshon Judkins is coming off of a reputation-making three-touchdown performance on 25 carries against the low-end Dolphins last week. The rookie running back gained just 84 yards in the matchup and did not catch a pass or draw a target over eight routes run, but touchdowns are king and his score popped toward the top of the position. Judkins was coming off of a significant week-over-week dip in production, he gained a season-high 110 yards on 23 carries in Week 5 against Minnesota but just 36 yards on 12 carries in Week 6 against Pittsburgh. Seeing the rookie return to major volume on the ground was a relief for fantasy investors, Judkins carried the ball 21 or more times in three of the last four games. At 4.3 yards per rush attempt, Judkins’ gains on the ground have been a little better than average as he finds his footing in the league, but he has demonstrated breakaway ability with a 7.34% broken tackle rate and 2.7 yards after contact per rush attempt. Judkins has gained 1.1 yards over expectation per rush attempt in his rookie campaign and seems to be gaining steam overall, he is the most worthwhile option in the Cleveland offense again in Week 8 and stands as RB12 by points and RB15 by value on DraftKings and RB11/13 on FanDuel.

With Judkins taking over the ground game almost entirely, there is very little room for shares of Jerome Ford or Dylan Sampson, neither ranks inside the top-35 running backs this week.

Receivers & Tight Ends

Jerry Jeudy’s best attribute by far is his deep targeting. At a 12.8-yard average depth of target and 39.55% air yards share, Jeudy sits as arguably the fourth-biggest target on the slate. Unfortunately, Jeudy serves as a perfect reminder that being a big target does not equal being a productive receiver, he is yet to catch a touchdown pass this season and gains just 0.97 yards per route run over 37.9 routes per game, making him one of the league’s top sprinters, but not much of a DFS producer. Jeudy sees an incredibly limiting 59.62% catchable target rate this season but, as mentioned, receivers like Rome Odunze can make that type of mark work (somehow). Jeudy is a low-end WR18 by points but WR2 by value on the DraftKings slate for just $4,100, given the big play potential he is a very interesting mixer on that slate and probably functions best outside of unlikely Browns stacks. Jeudy is WR18 by points and WR13 by value on FanDuel, he is playable but far less interesting, again primarily as a standalone, on that slate.

David Njoku is questionable to play but seems likely after getting work in throughout the week while dealing with a knee issue. Njoku draws 6.0 targets per game, good for a 14.3% target share on routes run over 31.3 routes per game, he has one of the few touchdown catches on this team this season. The tight end is just TE12/10 on DraftKings and ranks even lower as TE17/17 on FanDuel this week, if he plays at all. Njoku needs a touchdown to make value, he works at just a 6.1-yard ADOT and sees only a few catchable targets each week.

Harold Fannin Jr. is also drawing targets at the tight end spot. Fannin Jr. picks up 6.1 chances per game and gains 1.53 yards per route run to lead the team. The tight end has a touchdown on the season and works at a 6.1-yard average depth of target that is identical to Njoku’s positioning. There is not much to do in the Cleveland passing game right now, Fannin Jr. is just TE17/21 on DraftKings but rates as TE13/12 on FanDuel for a cheap price. The Patriots are far better against the run than the pass this season, giving a bit of potential to the idea of a cheap touchdown catch but those have been in incredibly short supply for Cleveland this year.

Isaiah Bond sees 3.7 targets per game but drew zero last week. Jamari Thrash picked up two targets in last week’s game but sees only 1.6 per contest overall, neither is at all appealing in Week 8 outside of a total wildcard of a touchdown that would represent nothing more than raw happenstance.

The Browns are near the bottom of the barrel as Stack 17 by points and Stack 12 by value on DraftKings, they are Stack 18/18 on FanDuel and most of their potential is created by Quinshon Judkins mark. Jerry Jeudy has a bit of dart throw potential just given the deep nature of his targeting that will eventually pay off on a random slate.

Game Notes:

Quarterback

The Dallas at Denver game is an interesting collision of a productive Cowboys offense that picks up 7.3 yards per pass attempt and 4.9 yards per rush while scoring 31.7 points per game this season against a Denver defense that has held teams largely in check with 3.8 yards per rush and 6.6 yards per pass attempt and just 18.1 points allowed per game. Dallas is capably led by quarterback Dak Prescott whose 16 touchdown passes tie him with Justin Herbert in second overall this season, despite Herbert already playing his Week 8 game. Prescott is chasing Matthew Stafford’s league-leading 17 touchdowns and could be in the top spot by week’s end. The Dallas quarterback has appeal even against good defenses, given a group of very capable pass-catchers and tremendous weekly volume. Prescott’s 37.0 attempts per game rank third on the slate behind just Mac Jones and Joe Flacco, neither of whom rates as highly as Prescott on the season. Prescott throws for 267.71 yards per game and 7.3 yards per attempt with a completion percentage that sits 7.1 points over expectation and he heads up a desirable stack that could be rendered lower-owned given the tough matchup. Dak Prescott is QB7 by points on both sites but he slips to QB15 by value on DraftKings and QB12 by value on FanDuel.

Running Backs

Javonte Williams has apparently sworn a blood oath to take revenge on his former team this weekend, though one would think he would want to thank them for allowing him to finally find his place in a breakout first season with the Cowboys. Williams gains 5.3 yards per rush attempt over 15.9 carries per game and picks up volume with another 4.6 chances coming in targeting to get him over the “magic number” of 20.0 potential touches. Williams has six touchdowns on the ground and another one in the passing game while gaining 2.9 yards after contact per rush attempt with a 7.21% broken tackle rate but he will be running into a wall of a defense that allows just 3.8 yards per rush attempt. Williams is a rock being flung toward a hard place, it will be interesting to see which breaks, he is RB9 by points on both sites but sits as just RB13 and RB14 by value on DraftKings and FanDuel respectively.

Receivers & Tight Ends

CeeDee Lamb returned to action after three-straight DNPs and immediately gained 110 yards and a touchdown on 5-8 receiving over 32 routes run as if nothing ever changed. Lamb both ran more routes and drew more targets than teammate George Pickens, who had firmly established himself as a go-to in the star’s absence. Pickens went from 11 targets in Week 6, a game in which he caught nine passes for 168 yards and a touchdown, to just six targets last week. The receiver still managed 82 yards on four catches against Washington last week but he failed to score for the first time in six games, most noteworthy because he had four touchdowns in the three games that Lamb missed. Pickens is number two in this offense but he should continue to operate as more of a 1A overall, he is playable on his own or alongside Lamb, but the superstar outpaces him in rankings. Both receivers gain terrific yardage per route run, with Lamb posting 2.74 and Pickens close behind at 2.32 yprr while running 7.1 more routes per contest. CeeDee Lamb is WR2 by points and WR11 by value on DraftKings and WR3 by points and WR8 by value on FanDuel while George Pickens is WR9 by points and WR33 by value on DraftKings at a still-high $7,100 price tag. At $7,200 on FanDuel, Pickens is a more manageable WR9 by points and WR15 by value but he is still less of a priority than Lamb. The pricey duo is difficult to reach as a pairing, particularly in stacks with Prescott where the configuration would be desirable, and the notion that both explode for scoring against such a premium defense renders the option somewhat thin. The Cowboys work as a stack this week but putting both of their top wide receivers into the same lineup is a challenge.

Jake Ferguson is a tough option for salary as well, despite maintaining ceiling potential and scoring ability he bounces off the low DraftKings cap at a bad value ranking, less so on FanDuel despite a price that nearly matches Pickens. Ferguson does match the wide receiver with six touchdowns to lead the team for the season, the tight end got there on a team-leading 8.3 targets per game and steady chances in scoring territory with 11 targets in the red zone this season. Dallas is aggressive throwing the ball in the red zone and Ferguson is a big part of that plan. The tight end works at a light average depth of target but that only enhances his quarterback’s accuracy while doing nothing to diminish his potential up close. Jake Ferguson is TE3 by points but TE19 by value on DraftKings and TE4 by points but TE8 by value on FanDuel this week.

Jalen Tolbert has been relegated to just four targets total over the last three games, despite running 75 routes but dipping to just 10 last week with KaVontae Turpin returning to run 14 routes and catch his lone target for 17 yards. Turpin missed Weeks 5 and 6, he drew 3.5 targets per game over the first four weeks of the season with a few catches and some yardage but just one touchdown. Turpin is an explosive player but he gains just 1.69 yards per route run, though that is a full yard more than Tolbert’s 0.61 mark. Ryan Flournoy picked up a surprising nine targets and caught six passes for 114 yards in Week 5 against the Jets but came back to Earth with three catches for 30 yards the following week and zero catches over just four routes run with the full squad back in action last week. Flournoy is unlikely to see involvement without catastrophe above him on the depth chart. None of these three receivers ranks inside the top-50 at the position in Week 8.

The Cowboys are in a very challenging matchup against an aggressive defense that has a ridiculous 34 sacks on a 32.8% pressure rate while severely limiting yardage and scoring in both the rushing and passing game. The productive Cowboys offense still ranks as Stack 3 by points but they are Stack 17 by value on DraftKings. They are slightly better with a bit more affordability as Stack 4 by points and Stack 10 by value on the FanDuel slate. A variety of combinations are available across the pool of capable skill players with all of Javonte Williams, CeeDee Lamb, George Pickens, and Jake Ferguson likely to be heavily involved if Dallas can deliver against the Denver defense.

Game Notes:

Quarterback

On the other side of a very interesting Dallas at Denver matchup, the Broncos are facing a far more compliant defense. Dallas has yielded 29.4 points per game with 4.7 yards allowed per rush and 8.1 yards allowed per pass attempt against them this season. Bo Nix and company could stand to have a big day against a team that has been giving them up more often than not in DFS contests this season. Nix has been OK this season, averaging just 6.1 yards per pass attempt on 6.9 intended air yards per attempt but throwing 11 touchdown passes against just four interceptions on strong volume. Nix throws 36.57 passes per game with a completion percentage that checks in 2.9 points below expectation by CPOE but he leads a capable group against a very bad defense with his team pulling a 27.25-point implied total that ranks among the best on the board. Nix is QB3 by points and QB3 by value in a great DraftKings spot this week, he is QB3 by points and QB1 by value in an even better value spot on FanDuel. This game is appealing for stacking with strong skill players for bring-back options on either side.

Running Backs

There continues to be a fairly clear divide in duties in the backfield between JK Dobbins and RJ Harvey, with Dobbins doing most of the work on the ground, and Harvey getting into the mix for a few targets per game. Dobbins does run routes in the passing attack but only sees 1.4 targets per game while Harvey draws 2.9 chances. Dobbins has been solid on the ground with 5.0 yards per rush attempt over 15.0 carries per game and four rushing touchdowns on the board this season, though he has failed to truly impact a slate in a big way. The running back broke 100 yards just once, in a Week 4 game against Cincinnati in which he failed to score, and his lack of involvement in the passing game limits the overall upside to just 16.4 potential touches. Dobbins is RB13 by points and RB12 by value on DraftKings and RB12/11 on the FanDuel slate. Harvey, meanwhile, rates better in full-PPR scoring but sits as just RB22/20 and RB23/22 across sites on the limited action.

Receivers & Tight Ends

The go-to in Denver’s passing game is Courtland Sutton, who sees a 20.6% target share on a slate-leading 38.4 routes run per contest. Sutton gains 1.74 yards per route run while drawing 7.1 targets per game with upside into double-digit targeting. The receiver has three touchdowns on the season while working at an 11.9-yard average depth of target for a significant 33.65% air yards share and a 24.24% explosive play rate on receptions. Sutton is good after the catch with 4.5 yards gained per reception once the ball is in his hands, good for 0.9 yards after the catch over expectation per reception. Courtland Sutton is WR7 by points and WR9 by value on DraftKings, he is also WR7 by points on FanDuel but dips slightly to just WR14 at a hefty $7,700 price tag on that site.

Tight end Evan Engram rates as a good positional play as TE5 by points and TE6 by value on DraftKings and TE7/6 on the FanDuel slate. Engram gains just 1.26 yards per route run while getting out into coverage on 23.7 routes per game. With a 4.4-yard ADOT, this is Nix’s easiest target in the passing game, he delivers a 75.76% catchable target rate in Engram’s direction while Sutton sees a 70.0% mark and the other frequently involved pass-catchers rate lower. Engram has only scored once in six games this season, he missed Week 3 but has been regularly involved with 18 catches and a touchdown in four games since. The tight end caught exactly five passes for exactly 42 yards in each of his last two games and should see major potential for both gains up and down the field and touchdown scoring against Dallas this week. Engram is a good option both in and out of stacks.

Troy Franklin fell behind Marvin Mims Jr. in the team’s Week 7 game against the Giants, with Franklin drawing 10 targets on 35 routes over 48 snaps but coming away with only three catches for 19 yards, though that did include a touchdown catch in the ridiculous Denver comeback win. Franklin also caught three passes for 19 yards in Week 6 against the Jets but he was far less valuable without the touchdown that week. The receiver has a pair of scores on the season with his best game coming in Week 2 when he caught eight passes for 89 yards and a touchdown. With Mims Jr. playing 42 snaps and running the same 35 routes as Franklin, while drawing seven targets and catching six of them for 85 yards, Denver has an interesting mix on their hands at worst. This is a big challenging in terms of nailing the correct option for DFS stacking but it gives Denver two down-board options for differentiation of popularity and pricing in stacks. Franklin is WR26/18 on DraftKings and WR24/19 on FanDuel while Mims Jr. is WR29/20 and WR34/32 on DraftKings.

The Broncos look like a premium option on both sites against one of the league’s most targetable defenses in Week 8. Denver is Stack 9 by points and Stack 6 by value on DraftKings and Stack 8 by points and Stack 7 by value on the blue site, they have ceiling potential with affordable Nix +1 and Nix +2 stacks both in play and capable pass-catchers for standalone shares. Even JK Dobbins rates as a mid-board value option as the second running back or a flex play inserted in any given lineup.

Opposing Setting: at most one / exactly one (these can be alternated in a variety of lineup builds)

Opposing Group: Christian McCaffrey, George Kittle, Jauan Jennings, Kendrick Bourne, Demarcus Robinson

Game Notes:

Quarterback

CJ Stroud lands in the bottom-third of quarterback options in a game in which his top and only appealing receiver is absent. With Nicol Collins missing in action in Week 8 it is just difficult to envision Stroud finding much success when he has managed only 6.8 yards per pass attempt and nine touchdowns with Collins on board. The quarterback throws 32.17 times per game and completes passes 0.9 points below expectation by CPOE on a solid 7.5-yard intended air yards mark. Stroud has been disappointing for the better part of a season-and-a-half, he gains very little to pad scoring on the ground and rates as just QB14/14 and QB14/16 across sites this week.

Running Backs

Woody Marks and Nick Chubb slide into action as low-rated running back plays across sites in Week 8. Marks out-snapped Chubb 46 to 19 in the team’s Week 7 game, carrying the ball 10 times to Chubb’s five rush attempts but failing to out-gain Chubb with 15 yards to Chubb’s 16. All of this is to say that neither running back has much appeal this week against a San Francisco defense that ranks 10th with 4.0 yards allowed per rush attempt on the season. Marks is RB21/18 and RB20/17 across sites while Chubb is worse as RB24/24 and RB22/24.

Receivers & Tight Ends

With both Nico Collins and Christian Kirk out of commission, the Texans will look to Xavier Hutchinson, Jayden Higgins, and Jaylin Noel, with Braxton Berrios potentially getting into the mix a bit as well. Hutchinson popped for a surprising score with two touchdowns on three catches in Week 5 against Baltimore but that came with just 18 yards and he has failed to gain more than 30 yards or score any other touchdowns in six games this season. And he is the best option in this group. Higgins caught four passes on four targets for 32 yards but did not score in Week 5, he failed to catch any of his three targets over 32 routes in Week 7. Noel, meanwhile, hit the board for four catches and 77 yards on seven targets over 28 routes run last week and could be the most interesting option in the lousy group. The leading option in this group is Jayden Higgins at WR28/7 and WR32/30 with others at similarly middling landing points in rankings.

Dalton Schultz is the most likely pass-catcher to hit the board, he rates as TE6 by points and TE1 by value on DraftKings for just $3,300 and sits as TE5 by points and TE4 by value on FanDuel at $5,100. Schultz gains 1.67 yards per route run over 28.3 routes per game and 6.2 targets each week for a group-leading 19.4% target share on routes run. Schultz also sees the best chances from Stroud among available pass-catchers, drawing an 81.08% catchable target rate over his 5.6-yard average depth of target. While the tight end has failed to score this season he does have three red zone targets and the most developed connection with the quarterback.

The Texans are a low-end Stack 19 by points on both sites. Cheap pricing has them rated as Stack 10 by value on DraftKings but they are probably more limited than that may suggest. Houston rates as just Stack 17 by value on FanDuel where they are easier to leave on the shelf.

Opposing Group: Tony Pollard, Elic Ayomanor, Chig Okonkwo, Van Jefferson, Chimere Dike, Gunnar Helm

Game Notes:

Quarterback

The Colts are massive 14.5-point favorites against a Titans team that has to be the worst in football by most measures. With that spread in a game carrying a 48.0-point total in Vegas, the Colts are at a slate-leading 31.25-point implied team total as one of the best overall options in several configurations. Quarterback Daniel Jones has been a different player in a Colts uniform, he rates highly in this pushover matchup in Week 8 and should produce fantasy scoring with slate-bending potential as a highly-owned option across both sites. Jones has 10 touchdown passes and another four scores on the ground this season to put him among the more productive touchdown creators at his position. While the scoring is nice, easily the most surprising part of Jones’ game is the 5.9 points over expectation at which he is completing passes by CPOE over 30.57 attempts per game. Jones has been slinging the ball deep down the field as well, far from playing it safe the quarterback has an 8.4 YPA on 8.3 intended air yards per attempt to sit second on the slate behind only Drake Maye’s 8.6-yard mark. Daniel Jones has potential both on the ground and through the air against a vulnerable defense that sits 22nd with 4.5 yards allowed per rush and 24th with 7.6 yards allowed per pass attempt this season, he is QB5 by points and QB8 by value on DraftKings and QB5/3 on FanDuel.

Running Backs

Jonathan Taylor lands at one of the season’s highest overall fantasy point projections but falls just second among running backs for fantasy scoring potential as RB2/9 on DraftKings and RB2/6 on FanDuel. Taylor falls behind only Bijan Robinson by projection with both running backs looking utterly tremendous this week. In many ways, padding a lineup with both running backs has major appeal, if one can figure out a competitive way to get there from a salary perspective. Taylor gains a ridiculous 5.3 yards per rush attempt on 18.7 carries per game and adds 3.6 more chances per contest in the passing attack. Taylor has a touchdown catch on the board and another 10 in the ground game, topping the running back board for the year. The incredibly productive superstar has a 9.92% broken tackle rate with 2.5 yards after contact per attempt and a 10.69% explosive rush rate, he is appealing for his ability as much as his volume in a matchup that has yielded productive games this season. The Titans give up a league-worst 1.71 rushing touchdowns per game with 12 allowed on the season, Taylor could add two or three to that mark in Week 8.

Receivers & Tight Ends

The deep Colts passing attack is led by wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. with 6.7 targets per game for a 22.2% target share on 29.3 routes run per game. Pittman Jr.’s numbers just barely outpace the team’s premium rookie tight end, with his five touchdowns creating additional separation. The wide receiver has been good this year with 1.71 yards per route run on the season, though that falls short of star-caliber production while also landing shy of what the tight end has put up for the year. Overall, it is still Pittman’s offense in the air, but there are plenty of good options for +2 builds that either include or bypass the productive wide receiver. Pittman Jr. is WR11 by points and WR12 by value on both sites.

Tyler Warren, the previously mentioned tight end, rates as the top option at his position on both sites when it comes to fantasy points this week. Warren is TE1/4 on DraftKings and he is TE1 across the board on the FanDuel slate. Warren gains 2.21 yards per route run over 28.4 routes per game, pulling in a 21.2% target share on 6.4 chances per game. He has been a very productive option in the passing game and a good safety valve for Daniel Jones at a 6.2-yard average depth of target in the typically deep attack. Warren has three touchdowns and leads the team with a whopping nine red zone targets this season. This is a tremendous play both in and out of stacks, Warren should be rostered in standalone shares, alongside Michael Pittman Jr., and in place of the wide receiver with either Jonathan Taylor or one of the down-board receivers sliding into the other spot.

Alec Pierce rates slightly ahead of Josh Downs on his monster big play potential at a 21.3-yard average depth of target. If the Colts are looking for Pierce they are looking for a game-breaking play, though he has failed to score so far this season. Pierce has a 31.25% explosive play rate and a matching air yards share, and he leapt up the board with 10 targets last week, catching five of them for 98 yards over 33 routes run against the Chargers. Pierce is a big play option who warrants shares in stacks and is a playable piece for light ownership and a potential ceiling score in standalone shares. Alec Pierce is WR24/30 and WR22/20 across sites with more apparent value on FanDuel.

Josh Downs is another solid pass-catcher in this offense, he rates as WR25/32 and WR28/31 and lands mostly in alternating shares with Pierce, easily the thinnest way to build this stack is including Downs and Pierce and foregoing all three of the truly premium options but stranger things have happened. Downs sees 5.7 targets per game and brings in 4.3 of them for 1.75 yards per route run over his 20.7 routes each week. The receiver is less big play focused than his teammates, operating at a conservative 6.8-yard ADOT that keeps his scoring potential down by comparison. Downs is a lower-priority option while remaining easily playable across sites.

The Colts are a high priority stack again in Week 8, with the team pulling the top implied total of the week and providing options in every corner they rate as Stack 2 by points and Stack 7 by value on DraftKings and land even better as Stack 1 by points and Stack 4 by value on FanDuel. Jonathan Taylor is an easy and obvious option in standalone shares while any of Michael Pittman Jr., Tyler Warren, or Alec Pierce can also function in that role at a variety of price points and point-creation expectations. All of the covered options are in play in stacks in a big way.

Opposing Setting: at most one / exactly one (these can be alternated in a variety of lineup builds)

Opposing Group: Drake London, Bijan Robinson, Kyle Pitts Sr., Darnell Mooney, Tyler Allgeier (on/off)

Game Notes:

Quarterback

The Dolphins rate poorly as a Stack this week, with much of their value coming from the upside in solo shares of De’Von Achane at running back against a vulnerable Falcons rush defense. The Miami passing attack will be hard pressed to find value with Atlanta yielding just 6.0 yards per pass attempt to sit second in the league. The Falcons have six interceptions on the season which collides favorably with the 10 that quarterback Tua Tagovailoa has thrown already. With just 11 touchdowns and a limited 6.4 yards per pass attempt there has been very little to like in this passing game, and Tagovailoa will be one of the first to tell you so. There is little-to-no appeal in QB18 across the board on both sites this week.

Running Backs

De’Von Achane is an outstanding running back trapped on an awful football team. Achane gains 5.3 yards per rush attempt but sees only 12.7 carries per game in the lousy offense. The running back gains potential touches with fantastic target volume out of the backfield, his 6.1 targets per game push him to 18.8 potential touches, still shy of our 20.0 target for opportunities but good enough given the explosive nature of the player in question. Achane has an 8.99% broken tackle rate and gains 3.1 yards after contact per rush attempt this season, scoring three times on the ground and another three times in the passing game to lead the team. Achane is RB6/6 on DraftKings and RB7/7 on FanDuel this week.

Ollie Gordon II dips outside of the top-30 and is at best a dart throw running back option for DFS gamers.

Receivers & Tight Ends

Jaylen Waddle gains 2.03 yards per route run over 28.6 routes per game, posting productive output despite the limited overall nature of the offense. Waddle draws a 12.3-yard average depth of target, essentially doubling the average depth at which anyone else on the team sees their chances, and giving him a 34.83% air yards share. Waddle’s 20.5% target share leads the team by several points and he is the only pass catcher who sees better than a 70.0% catchable target rate from Tagovailoa downfield. Waddle is WR13/17 and WR12/18, he rates slightly better than his quarterback as an individual and has upside out of stacks as much as in them.

Malik Washington has been regularly targeted over the past few games with Tyreek Hill out of action. Washington picked up five targets in each of Weeks 5 and 6 and drew eight chances in Week 7, though he caught no more than the five passes he snagged last week, totaling 30 yards. Washington has not found the end zone this season, nor has he been over that 30 yards from the Week 7 showing. This is a limited receiver in a limited offense, he is WR33/21 and WR30/25 and may slip by Sunday’s lock time.

Nick Westbrook-Ikhine caught three of four targets for 16 yards in his most productive game of the season, running 26 routes over 44 snaps. Westbrook-Ikhine is capable of getting downfield for a big play but Tagovailoa’s chances of getting him the ball at the right point in space and time to make that happen are limited. This is WR48/41 and WR47/46.

With Tanner Conner as TE26/24 and TE24/24 across sites, the team does not offer much potential at the tight end position, all of the good options are on IR. Conner caught one pass in each of the last two games and has not been over two catches or 28 yards on the season.

The Dolphins are a lousy option as Stack 13/15 on DraftKings and Stack 13/14 on FanDuel, but De’Von Achane is a highly appealing option at running back and Jaylen Waddle is at worst a mixer in standalone shares.

Game Notes:

Quarterback

The emergence of Drake Maye has been one of the NFL’s most exciting first-half stories in 2025. Maye had another solid game in Week 7 against a bad Titans team, doing more than enough to win with 222 passing yards and two touchdowns on a near-record-setting 21-of-23 passing. Maye has five touchdown passes and zero interceptions in the last two games and 12 this season against just two interceptions. Maye leads the slate with 8.6 yards per pass attempt on 7.5 intended air yards per attempt, though his volume is a bit lighter than desired with just 28.86 pass attempts per game. The Patriots have kept this limited despite the solid production, Maye threw 30 passes in Week 5 but just 26 in Week 6 and 23 last week. Maye has a developing connection with veteran Stefon Diggs and standout Kayshon Boutte who has made several big plays this season. Overall, Maye is completing passes at a rate that sits a full 10.3 points over expectation, the best mark on the slate by CPOE. The quarterback throws for 249.14 yards per game and rates as QB6 by points and QB11 by value on DraftKings in Week 8 while dropping onto the FanDuel board as QB6 by points and an excellent QB4 by value for a fair $7,600. The biggest thing working against Maye and his Patriots this week is a decent Browns defense but they are mostly good against the run and just middling against the pass.

Running Backs

Rhamondre Stevenson and TreVeyon Henderson form one of the least appealing duos in the league. Stevenson is only a moderate producer in the lead role and he has a fumbling issue, while Henderson’s involvement has been all over the map over the first seven weeks of the season. Stevenson carried the ball 18 times for 88 yards and a touchdown in Week 7, his most productive game of the year by a fair margin. Henderson, meanwhile, dipped to just two carries for five yards on nine snaps with the offense, the second consecutive week in which his snap share dipped significantly, without much further to fall. Stevenson gains a thin 3.6 yards per rush attempt but Henderson checks in at the same rate and has done nothing to win the job from the veteran. Stevenson is RB20/19 and RB21/20 across sites while Henderson rates lower despite promises of getting back into the mix this week via coachspeak, he is RB25/25 and RB26/26 across sites.

Receivers & Tight Ends

Stefon Diggs is WR14/19 and WR15/9 with strong value showing for just $6,200 on the FanDuel slate. Diggs has not been involved in Maye’s scoring breakout but he is a part of marching up and down the field with an outstanding 3.28 yards per route run over 19.9 routes per game. Diggs has steadily gained momentum and ran 26 routes in Week 7, his highest mark since running 38 in Week 1. The receiver caught all seven of his targets for 69 yards but did not score and has not found the end zone this season. Diggs did post a huge 146 yards on 10 catches in a revenge game against Buffalo in Week 5, catching 10 of 12 passes over just 22 routes run, but that was far and away his most heavily-targeted game, he has at most seven targets in any other game this season. Still, Diggs looks like an appealing and involved option given the recent upticks and the still available ability. The receiver rates as a marginally playable standalone receiver who would rapidly gain ground if we could zero in on a target count more like Week 5. Diggs is most appealing in stacks with Maye as a +1 or +2 build.

Kayshon Boutte is a big participant in scoring, he put the ball in the end zone twice in Week 6 against the Saints and had another touchdown last week against the Titans, giving him four total on the season. Boutte caught just two passes but was targeted only those two times on 27 routes run over 46 snaps last week. The receiver sees volume that leaves him short of the most reliable options on the slate, picking up just 3.6 targets per game on a 12.7% target share over 23.1 routes run per contest but he gains a terrific 2.20 yards per route run. Boutte, like Diggs, has made things happen for yardage gains on limited targeting with a bit of separation created by the touchdown scoring and additional chances. Boutte is WR27/38 and WR26/28 across sites but his actual upside rates closer to Diggs than that may reveal.

Hunter Henry is a top-10 tight end option on both sites, he offers touchdown-scoring appeal at worst. Henry has seven red zone targets and three touchdown catches this season. The tight end sees 5.1 targets per game to sit second on the tam behind Diggs’ 6.3 chances, and his 8.5-yard ADOT puts him slightly further down the field than the veteran wide receiver, though his 1.81 yards per route run is shy of Diggs or Boutte’s marks. With involvement in scoring territory as a favored option for the emerging quarterback, Henry is in good position to provide DFS value against Cleveland’s defense, he is TE9/8 on DraftKings and TE8/7 on FanDuel.

DeMariou Douglas is a lightly involved wide receiver with 3.3 targets per game and just 1.26 yards per route run over 13.4 routes each week. Douglas has a pair of touchdown catches despite the light targeting and limited route running, though most of his production came on three catches for 71 yards and a touchdown last week. Mack Hollins works at a strong double-digit ADOT and is a big play threat on most slates, but his involvement is thin with just 2.0 targets per game. Douglas is WR41/44 and WR48/51 while Hollins is just WR63/66 and WR66/65.

The Patriots are just Stack 14/16 on DraftKings and Stack 14/12 on FanDuel, the appeal of the quarterback and one of his pass catchers is workable but piling options onto limited volume against a capable defense creates more problems than it solves.

Game Notes:

Quarterback

The Saints land on the low end of a 47.0-point game total against a defense yielding 25.0 points per game. With New Orleans managing just 17.9 points per game in the offense, oddsmakers are leaning strongly toward a good day for the opposing Tampa Bay Buccaneers, whose defense looks like a reasonable option against the limited Saints. New Orleans is a weird mix, the team still has several premium skill options but a limited quarterback who holds things back outside of volume-based production. Spencer Rattler is completing 3.1 percentage points more of his passes than expectation suggests by CPOE this season but that amounts to just 6.2 yards per pass attempt despite 7.9 intended air yards per attempt. Rattler has managed just eight touchdown passes against four interceptions while throwing the ball an average of 33.57 times per game. The quarterback has quality options with Chris Olave, Rashid Shaheed, and Juwan Johnson among targetable pass-catchers, and a heavily involved but now less productive Alvin Kamara out of the backfield. Rattler drops in as QB11 by points but leaps to QB4 by value on DraftKings this week for just $4,700. He is QB12 by points and QB10 by value on the FanDuel slate ahead of a stack that rates similarly as a mid-board play for points but a potentially upside spot for value against a gettable pass defense that yields 7.7 yards per attempt.

Running Backs

Alvin Kamara has one touchdown going into Week 8. While we would not rule out the potential for Kamara to come out the other side of Sunday’s game with five touchdowns on the season, we are certainly not counting on the monster performance. Things finally seem to have slowed down for the former superstar, Kamara gains just 3.6 yards per rush attempt and 4.2 yard per target this season and his volume dipped somewhat prior to Kendre Miller’s injury last week. It will be interesting to see how many of those touches revert to Kamara or go toward new understudy Devin Neal, odds are Kamara will add a potential touch or two to his still-strong 17.5 per game. The running back has gotten cheap with the lack of output, the single touchdown is glaring given his massive individual weeks in seasons past. Kamara is RB11 by points but RB7 by value for just $5,700 on DraftKings, he is RB13/9 on FanDuel for $6,600.

Devin Neal is RB42/42 and RB41/40, he seems unlikely to contribute and gains just 3.3 yards per rush attempt in very limited work this season, though Miller’s 10-11 touches need to land somewhere.

Receivers & Tight Ends

Wide receiver Chris Olave sees major involvement on a weekly basis. Olave averages 10.1 targets per game with double-digit targeting in five of seven contests. He dipped to just seven chances in a Week 7 matchup against the targetable Bears pass defense, returning his best performance of the year with five catches for 98 yards and two touchdowns. Olave has been at exactly 98 yards in back-to-back games but he has not been over 100 receiving yards yet this season. The receiver has three touchdowns on the board but had not cracked 60 yards prior to these two most recent games, though he did post 50 or more yards in four of the first five games of the season. Olave is a significant source of scoring potential in full PPR formats and is no slouch across the board. This is WR6 by points on both sites, WR3 by value on DraftKings, and WR2 by value on the FanDuel slate. The debate primarily arises around whether Olave is best deployed as a standalone option or in stacks with his truly cheap quarterback.

Rashid Shaheed has caught exactly four passes in six straight games, with five or six targets in most of those contests. Shaheed did see a spike to nine targets in last week’s game, but his four grabs amounted to just 40 yards in that one. The receiver has one big game on the season, he posted 114 yards and scored a touchdown on a big play against the Giants in Week 5 but otherwise has failed to go beyond the 52 yards he gained in Week 2. Shaheed sees a 19.70% target share on 32.3 routes per game, gaining 1.58 yards per route run on an 11.7-yard ADOT. The receiver needs to find the end zone but his big play route running puts him on the board whenever one considers Saints stacks. A fair price keeps Shaheed in the mix at an Alec Pierce type level on both sites, he is WR15 by points but WR5 by value with explosive potential on DraftKings and lands as WR13/5 and looks similar on the blue site.

Juwan Johnson is a mid-board option at tight end, he rates behind the wide receivers in the offense this week. Johnson has only scored once this season but draws regular chances in scoring territory with five red zone targets. Johnson sees 6.3 targets each week, gaining 7.2 yards per target over 32.1 routes per game while seeing one of the more reliable deliveries from Rattler with an 81.82% catchable target rate that far outstrips what both leading wide receivers have seen (66.20% and 66.67% for Olave and Shaheed respectively). Johnson rates as just TE13/11 and TE14/13 across sites but he has clear touchdown-dependent potential in and out of stacks.

Taysom Hill is an unlikely mixer who gets on the board two or three times each season but is wildly unpredictable with his multi-faceted involvement in the offense. No matter how he manages it, Hill needs to find six for scoring relevance, his volume is far too light to expect production beyond the odd touchdown chances.

The Saints rate as Stack 10 by points but Stack 3 by value on DraftKings, they are Stack 10 by points and Stack 5 by value on the FanDuel slate and are in play for a bit of potential with standalone playmakers or value-based +1 or even +2 builds.

Game Notes:

Quarterback

Jaxson Dart is likely to be more popular than he should be in Week 8’s rematch against the Eagles. After pulling off the improbable upset two weeks ago, Dart was unexpectedly tremendous against a strong Denver defense, throwing for a season-high 283 yards on 15-33 passing for three touchdowns and an interception, and he ran a fourth touchdown in to further pad fantasy scoring. Dart’s touchdowns masked a somewhat underwhelming game, his completion percentage was way off the mark and his rushing total represented a season-low. Overall, Dart is completing passes at a rate 6.8 points below expectation by CPOE while throwing for just 6.7 yards per pass attempt despite 8.7 intended air yards per attempt. The truth is, several of Darts touchdowns have been more lucky than good, and a large portion of his value has been created in the ground game. If he sees fewer carries he is less likely to produce, he has double-digit rush attempts in two games this season but peaks at just seven carries otherwise and dipped to five last week. Dart is in the mix as QB10 by points and QB16 by value on DraftKings and QB10/15 on FanDuel but he is not a priority, nor is the Giants stack.

Running Backs

Cam Skattebo is another buzzy Giants player who is drawing more attention than his production probably warrants. Skattebo’s face-first approach to football is likely to be short-lived but it can be fun to watch. The running back had a career-high 98 yards and three rushing touchdowns on 19 carries in Week 6 against this same Philadelphia defense, with the Eagles yielding 4.6 yards per rush attempt to rank just 25th overall this season. Skattebo dipped badly with just 60 yards on 16 carries in last week’s matchup against a much better Denver defense, though he added 34 yards and a touchdown to that tally on 3-6 receiving over 20 routes run. The running back is a quality option against this defense but his 4.1 yards per rush attempt amounts to just average production and his 1.9 yards after contact per attempt somewhat belie his reputation. Skattebo is fine on volume with upside on the ground and in the passing game but he rates as just RB16/21 and RB16/18 across sites this week while losing a bit of ground to Tyrone Tracy Jr.’s return.

Tyrone Tracy Jr. steps in as a lousy DFS option despite scoring and putting up 46 yards on nine carries last weekend against a good Broncos squad. Tracy has mostly lost this job but he should see about 10 touches per game going forward, he ran 13 routes but failed to draw a target in last week’s game and did not see a target in limited action in his first week back from injury in Week 6. Tracy played 21 snaps in the first game against the Eagles, carrying the ball four times for 6.0 yards and running eight empty routes. Tracy is RB28/29 and RB30/31.

Receivers & Tight Ends

Wan’Dale Robinson leads a low-end group of pass-catchers with 1.87 yards per route run over 34.1 routes per game. Robinson draws 7.6 targets per game, good for a 24.10% target share over routes run, and he vaulted to 12 targets in the Week 7 shootout against Denver. The receiver catches a fair share of the balls thrown his way, considering just a 67.92% catchable target rate from his rookie quarterback, he has been helpful to building Dart’s reputation but has just two touchdowns on the season. Robinson works at fair depth with a 9.3-yard ADOT but just a 23.52% air yards share. Wan’Dale Robinson is WR20/27 on DraftKings and WR21/27 on FanDuel, he is OK this week and is the top priority Giants pass-catcher in stacks, but that does not make him an overall priority on the slate. Robinson sees a bit more full PPR value.

Theo Johnson has four touchdowns and a bit of a connection with Jaxson Dart, while seeing a growing number of targets in recent games. Johnson caught three of seven targets for 66 yards last week, scoring a touchdown in the limited catch total. The tight end had his best day of the season in Week 5, posting six catches for 33 yards and two touchdowns on seven targets over 34 routes run. Johnson has four touchdowns in as many weeks, though he failed to score in Week 6 against this same Eagles defense, catching only two passes for 27 yards while drawing four targets on 25 routes. Johnson lands as TE14 by points and TE16 by value on DraftKings, he is no longer sneaky for touchdown potential and is only middling as a volume or yardage option. He is TE12/16 on the FanDuel slate with a similar read.

Darius Slayton missed the last two games but should return to action this week. Slayton had three catches in each of Weeks 4 and 5 and has not been over 61 yards or four catches in any of his five games this season. The receiver had eight touchdown catches as a rookie in 2019 and has never approached that total again, he is a low-end option who can hope to provide a big play strike for Dart with a 14.1-yard average depth of target. Slayton is WR34/42 and WR36/35 across sites this week.

The Giants chose to elevate Lil’Jordan Humphrey from the practice squad again this week despite Slayton’s return. Humphrey was involved for four catches and 55 yards on eight targets over 29 routes and 53 snaps in Week 6 against these Eagles but failed to produce on 72 snaps with the offense last week. Humphrey ran 36 routes against the Broncos and failed to catch either of his targets. With no guarantees for involvement in a mid-board offense, this is not a critical option in Week 8.

The Giants are just Stack 16 by points and Stack 19 by value on both sites this week against an Eagles defense that allows just 6.6 yards per pass attempt to rank 8th overall. Jaxson Dart has his appeal on the surface but things are uglier under the hood, in a tough division matchup it seems like a stretch for him to produce another big game at a price that is mostly caught up to his quality.

Game Notes:

Quarterback

Justin Fields fans get at least one more week in the sun thanks to an injury to backup Tyrod Taylor who supplanted Fields midway through last week’s game. Neither quarterback has much appeal on this slate, Fields can produce in the ground game but his quality as a passer has gone from bad to worse with just 6.3 yards per pass attempt and 140.83 yards per game over 22.5 pass attempts each week. Fields is completing passes at a rate a point below expectation, he has four touchdown passes and zero interceptions on the season but has done very little with his offense. The quarterback has three rushing touchdowns and gains 6.1 yards per rush attempt, he has always been capable-to-spectacular on the ground but his limitations in the passing attack, and those of the Jets overall, severely hamper expectations. Fields is just QB12 by points and QB9 by value on DraftKings, he lands as QB11/14 on FanDuel in a matchup against a bad Bengals defense that allows 4.7 yards per rush and 7.8 yards per pass attempt. If Fields is going to find success, this would be a good target for it, the model suggests that is less than likely and a lousy 19.0-point implied team total on the Vegas board backs that position up substantially.

Running Backs

Breece Hall is questionable on the injury report but seems likely to play after getting in partial practices ahead of a full Friday practice. Hall gains a solid 4.5 yards per rush attempt on 14.1 carries per game and has an outstanding 13.13% explosive rush rate while gaining 2.1 yards after contact on an 8.08% broken tackle rate. Hall sees 3.9 targets per game to pad his potential touches but he has somehow failed to score across seven games this season. With the Jets not putting the ball in the end zone much overall it is not like he loses touchdowns to teammates, but the utter lack of scoring from an explosive player who gets to touch the ball 18 times per game is surprising. Hall still lands as RB10/11 and RB10/10 across site but those marks are down somewhat on the season. The matchup against a bad rush defense should bolster Hall’s chances to produce and the Jets are without their most capable pass-catchers, which could push volume as long as Cincinnati does not force the issue with scoring. Hall is at worst a mixer with big day potential.

Isaiah Davis slots in behind Hall and would benefit in the starter’s absence. With Hall active there is essentially no value in the handful of touches Davis may or may not see.

Receivers & Tight Ends

Mason Taylor lands as TE15/13 and TE15/10 across sites, he is also questionable but expected to play while dealing with quad issues. The tight end sees a 17.4% target share on routes run over his 30.7 routes per game, both group-leading marks in the diminished collection of pass-catchers. The tight end gains just 0.97 yards per route run on limited throw quality and volume, though he should see a bit better of both with Garrett Wilson out and plenty of chances suddenly free. Taylor is just a mixer in a bad offense but he is best played if one chooses to stack Fields.

Allen Lazard is WR40/39 and WR41/40 with Arian Smith and Tyler Johnson rating similarly. None of the Jets wide receivers looks worthwhile this week, Fields has done little to create faith in any of these options and there is no telling where production may come from with Johnson’s 1.26 yards per route run leading the group. Lazard has managed just 0.47 yards per route run on 17.0 routes per game and 1.8 targets each week, his upside has been limited but he has drawn two targets in the red zone to tie for the lead among pass-catchers not named Breece Hall. There is not an appealing receiver in this offense in Week 8.

The Jets are a terrible option even against a bad defense, they rate as Stack 18/13 and Stack 17/16 and fortunately do not draw the eye for value. Breece Hall is by far the most playable piece of this team in any format.

Game Notes:

Quarterback

With revenge in their hearts and talent on the field, the Eagles seem likely to destroy a limited Giants team as 7.5-point favorites at home in Philadelphia on Sunday. The Eagles are one of the top stacks on both sites, even in the absence of star receiver AJ Brown. Philadelphia’s healthy 25.75-point implied team total is appealing and Brown’s absence could help concentrate opportunities with both Saquon Barkley and DeVonta Smith standing tall in projections across the industry. Of course, no one has scoring potential quite like Jalen Hurts in this offense. The quarterback has thrown 11 touchdown passes against a single interception while firing 27.86 pass attempts per game for 7.7 yards per attempt. Hurts adds quality with 3.4 yards per rush attempt over 7.7 carries per game, doing most of his damage for scoring and first down pickups in short yardage situations. Hurts has five rushing touchdowns on the season to put him among positional scoring leaders. The quarterback is an underrated passer, he completes passes at a rate 7.1 points ahead of expectation this season and throws for big plays on a regular basis with an 8.9 intended air yards per attempt mark. Hurts connects regularly with tight end Dallas Goedert in scoring territory and he should take a few shots downfield for Smith. The Eagles are a strong stack that Hurts leads as QB2 by points on both sites, though he comes up as just QB7 by value on DraftKings and QB9 by value on FanDuel at hefty price tags.

Running Backs

Saquon Barkley has been flat all season with a surprisingly low 3.3 yards per rush attempt and a dip to just 16.1 carries per game. Barkley is actually below average with 0.1 yards below expectation per rush attempt on the season. The star running back has managed just 1.5 yards after contact per rush attempt and a 2.65% broken tackle rate on the season, but he has at least found the end zone four times overall with three rushing touchdowns and a catch in the end zone. Barkley is not going to come close to last season’s numbers but he has bountiful opportunities with 19.4 potential touches per week and could bounce back at any moment. A matchup against his former team, a division rival who just beat his squad two weeks ago, and with a star teammate out of action, now would be an ideal week for the Barkley second-half train to pull out of the station early with DFS gamers on board. Saquon Barkley is RB5 by points and RB4 by value on DraftKings, he is RB4 by points and RB1 by value at a cheap $8,100 on FanDuel. No, you move.

Receivers & Tight Ends

The Eagles passing game should boil down mostly to DeVonta Smith and Dallas Goedert in Week 8 with scraps going to Jahan Dotson. With AJ Brown out of action, Smith vaults to WR3 by points and WR1 by value on DraftKings and WR2 by points and WR1 by value on the FanDuel slate against a Giants team that has been surprisingly competent against the pass. New York rates 8th with 6.6 yards allowed per pass attempt this season, with 1.29 passing touchdowns allowed per game. Smith sees a 24.6% target share on routes run over 31.6 routes per game while gaining 2.28 yards per route run for the season. The receiver should see a few additional chances on his regular workload this week, he operates at a significant 11.1-yard ADOT and should exceed his season-long mark of 30.98% of the air yards in a big way in Week 8. Smith has two touchdown catches this season but could be in line for multiple scores this weekend, he has five red zone targets and is a favorite option down the field for Hurts.

Dallas Goedert has five touchdown catches to lead available Eagles pass-catchers for the season. Goedert draws just a 19.30% target share over 27.0 routes per game with 6.0 targets each week. The tight end works on a mid-level 8.4-yard average depth of target for a 17.99% air yards share that keeps him involved for quality plays even if he does not find the end zone but the big weeks come when he hits paint. Goedert has touchdown-scoring potential against a Giants team that typically scuffles against the position, he is TE4 by points and TE2 by value on DraftKings and TE2/2 on the FanDuel slate as a big part of an appealing stack.

Jahan Dotson sees 1.7 targets per game and gains 0.66 yards per route run over 24.0 routes as the third-most involved receiver in the passing game. Dotson should see a bit of added potential this week but he will be the third or fourth option in the passing game behind the team’s upside players. Dotson draws 16.2-yard ADOT over the limited chances this season but has failed to score and has not had more than one catch in a game since catching three passes in Week 1. Dotson is ranked outside of the top-50 wide receivers by points on both sites.

The Eagles are a premium option against a fraudulent Giants defense that yields 5.2 yards per rush attempt for the season while succeeding somewhat against the pass. Philadelphia rates as Stack 1/1 on the DraftKings slate and Stack 2/1 on FanDuel with tremendous quality at quarterback, running back, wide receiver, and tight end, and clear lines in stack building in +1 or +2 configurations. Barkley, Smith, and Goedert are all playable and appealing in standalone builds at fair prices and there are fair arguments to be made that Hurts plays up for single-player value in “naked” lineups as well.

Game Notes:

Quarterback

Mac Jones will make his sixth start of the season with Brock Purdy still out of action in Week 8. Jones has been a mixed bag, throwing for 280.8 yards per game over 38.8 pass attempts per game but just six touchdown passes against four interceptions. With three of those touchdown passes coming in a single game back in Week 2, Jones has been extremely limited for overall DFS scoring for this team’s collection of pass-catchers, despite the heavy production of yardage. The quarterback has been over 300 yards twice this season, throwing for 342 on 33-49 passing against the Rams with two touchdowns on the board in Week 5 and another 347 yards on 27-39 passing with zero touchdowns and two interceptions in Week 6. Jones was pedestrian on 17-26 passing for 152 yards against Atlanta last week, failing to throw a touchdown for the second-straight game while throwing another interception, giving three lost over the same two outings. Jones has two touchdown passes and three interceptions in the last three weeks, no touchdowns in two straight games, but two 300+ yards performances over the same stretch, bags do not get more mixed than that. The quarterback rates as QB16/19 and QB17/17 and seems best left on the shelf despite the ability to grind yards.

Running Backs

Christian McCaffrey is the leading option on the board for the 49ers in Week 8 and one of the premium options at the running back position on both sites. McCaffrey is another veteran seeing a bit of a dip in output in 2025. The running back gains just 3.5 yards per rush attempt this season but still sees 18.9 carries each week while adding ridiculous potential via volume in the passing attack with 9.7 weekly targets pushing him to near quarterback levels of touches with 28.6 potential touches each week. McCaffrey gains just 1.4 yards after contact per rush attempt on a 6.82% broken tackle rate this season, his 7.6 yards per target and 9.85% explosive play rate on receptions are more interesting marks. The running back has three rushing touchdowns and three receiving touchdowns this season, he is a major source of scoring on any given slate and offers slightly more appeal in full PPR formats. McCaffrey is a go-to RB3 by points and RB8 by value on DraftKings, he is RB3/4 on FanDuel at a lower relative price.

Kyle Juszczyk has a touchdown on the board in the passing game while drawing 1.9 targets per game, he is mostly reserved for Showdown formats where one catch for a touchdown can make a difference.

Receivers & Tight Ends

George Kittle failed to make a mark in his return to action in Week 7. The veteran tight end star did not register a catch while drawing two targets on 23 routes run over 54 snaps with the offense. Kittle had been out since 21 snaps into Week 1, he had already caught four passes for 25 yards and a touchdown before exiting, he is coming off of back-to-back 1,000-yard seasons and had eight touchdown catches in 15 games last year. Kittle remains a tremendous option at his position but he will live and die with the quality of Jones’ throws which did him no favors last week. Kittle is TE2 by points and TE3 by value on DraftKings and TE3/3 on the FanDuel board.

Jauan Jennings has been more limited than expected this season with one touchdown catch in five games, despite being the nominal number one option in several of those games. Jennings caught four passes for 31 yards over 24 routes and seven targets last week, he has failed to find the end zone or gain more than those 31 yards since an 89-yard touchdown-scoring game in Week 2 against the Saints. The receiver still sees an average of 5.8 targets per game but that is good for just an 11.3% target share on his 32.0 routes run each week. Jennings gains just 1.04 yards per route run, compounding the problem, though much of that can be attributed to a 55.17% catchable target rate from the 49ers lousy quarterback play. Jennings is WR22 by points but WR15 by value on DraftKings and WR23/29 on FanDuel and is a bit better than a mixer on either site if Jones can deliver one or two good throws.

Kendrick Bourne, Demarcus Robinson, and Skye Moore are a lightly involved group of pass-catchers who drew four targets combined in Week 7, with Bourne’s two chances leading the way. It is best to stick with the top of the board in the middling 49ers offense, no one in this group rates better than WR38/49 and WR31/36 (Bourne).

The 49ers are Stack 8 by points and Stack 11 by value on DraftKings and Stack 9 by points and Stack 11 by value on the FanDuel slate. Christian McCaffrey is a no-brainer option in any format on any site, while the team’s premium pass catchers are more playable than their quarterback, leading to better and more likely angles as standalone players than in stacks, though 49ers builds are viable in +1 configurations. +2 builds are a bit less sound with a limited 20.0-point implied team total.

Game Notes:

Quarterback

Baker Mayfield and the productive Buccaneers offense land in New Orleans with an average of 24.9 points per game for the season. Mayfield accounts for a fair amount of that scoring with 13 touchdown passes against just two interceptions while gaining 7.2 yards per pass attempt on 8.7 intended air yards per attempt. The big play nature of Tampa Bay’s passing game puts Mayfield on the board with regularity, the quarterback completes 64.0% of his 35.0 pass attempts per game, sitting 0.7 points above expectation on the opportunities with better marks for advance passing. Mayfield is without Mike Evans and Chris Godwin but rookie Emeka Egbuka and a group of replacement-level options have filled the gap admirably. Baker Mayfield is QB4 by points on both sites but slips to QB12 by value on DraftKings and QB11 by value on FanDuel.

Running Backs

The Rachaad White remember me tour continues with Bucky Irving still out of action in Week 8. White has seen an uptick in involvement in the weeks since Irving first hit the shelf, with carry totals landing at 14, 17, and 10 over Weeks 5 through 7. White added potential in the passing game where he is always involved, drawing more than four targets per game over the stretch to put him in solid productive territory for volume. White scored twice in Week 5 against Seattle and again in Week 6 against the 49ers, gaining 41 and 65 yards on 14 and 17 carries respectively, his dip to just 38 yards on 10 tries last week was not adequately covered with just six yards on his four catches over 39 routes run. White was vastly more productive in previous weeks and has quality DFS games on the board throughout his short career to date, at worst he is an involved pass-catcher who gains 4.1 yards per target, at best he is an explosive rusher who gains a solid but unspectacular 3.9 yards per rush attempt but has a solid 10.94% broken tackle rate. White is RB7 by points and RB2 by value on DraftKings and rates similarly as RB6/2 on FanDuel.

Sean Tucker is a low-end mixer as a cheap touchdown-scoring dart. Tucker has one touchdown on the season while carrying the ball just 1.6 times per game, punching the ball in while gaining 25 yards on a season-high six carries in Week 6.

Receivers & Tight Ends

Emeka Egbuka has been incredibly productive in his rookie season. The wide receiver hauls in 4.4 of 7.7 targets per game with upside for more with the team’s top receivers out of the mix. Egbuka was targeted a massive 12 times in last week’s game, though he only caught four of those chances for 58 yards. The receiver las scored in Week 5 against Seattle, he has been a bit more limited in the past two games but has five touchdowns in his first seven games in the NFL and has emerged as the go-to option for his quarterback. Egbuka is not the lead option by default, the rookie gains an outstanding 2.17 yards per route run over 34.7 routes per game, pulling in a 22.7% target share on a monster 13.5-yard average depth of target for a 35.91% air yards share. Egbuka rates as WR4 by points on both sites. He is WR10 by value on DraftKings at a fair $7,000 price tag, for a cheaper $7,500 on the FanDuel slate, Egbuka rates as WR3 by points-per-dollar value with major touchdown-scoring potential in a high-quality stack against a defense that has allowed 1.57 passing touchdowns per game.

Tez Johnson is just WR31/35 on DraftKings, he rates slightly better at WR25/24 on the FanDuel slate on 3.2 targets per game for the season. There should be an expectation for heavy involvement for Johnson again this week, given the absences on the depth chart. The receiver picked up nine targets in the Week 7 matchup with four catches and a touchdown in his second-straight game. Johnson gained at least 45 yards in three straight contests and should see ongoing chances as long as the team’s veteran options are out of commission. The battle for second-rate chances with Sterling Shepard will also be ongoing, however, rendering both options less reliable than Egbuka.

Sterling Shepard is WR36/45 and WR33/34 across sites, he has one touchdown on a 13.73% air yards share with an 8.2-yard average depth of target but just 1.28 yards gained per route run. Shepard was mostly an afterthought coming into the year but has seen regular chances with 4.9 targets per game good for a 14.30% target share on his 29.9 routes per game. If the Tampa Bay passing attack is stackable then Sterling Sheapard is at least worth consideration in depth builds.

Cade Otton is a playable depth tight end who can come through at cheap pricing and lower-than-average ownership in a pinch. Otton has not scored this season but he draws 4.4 targets per game and saw nine last week. The inexpensive tight end operates at a 5.8-yard ADOT but has a 18.18% explosive play rate on receptions with a few big plays in the bag. Otton gained 65 yards on 7-9 receiving in last week’s matchup and had 51 yards on five catches over six targets the week before. With regular involvement in the productive passing game it seems like a matter of time before Otton gets on the board for scoring, he found the end zone four times in each of the past two seasons. Cade Otton is TE11 by points and TE7 by value for a bargain bin $3,400 price on DraftKings, he is TE10/14 on the FanDuel slate at a far less valuable $5,500 salary.

Tampa Bay is Stack 6 by points and Stack 8 by value on DraftKings while landing better as Stack 5 by points and Stack 3 by value on the FanDuel slate. Baker Mayfield rates as a quality quarterback at a high price, but that is offset somewhat by the affordable skill players in tow, even with a dip in their individual potential after we get through Egubka and White. While the team is without its true star up top they are still dangerous and playable on both sites in Week 8, at least Egbuka and White are playable in standalone shares, while Otton and Tez Johnson are more dart throws in that role.

Tennessee Titans

Game Total: 48.0 / TEN +14.5 (16.75)

Offense: 34,32% rush / 65.68% pass / 13.7 ppg / 3.8 ypa rush / 5.7 ypa pass

oppDEF: 4.2 ypa rush / 7.0 ypa pass / 20.0 ppg / 6.46% sack / 3.27% int

Key Player: Cam Ward

Setting: exactly one

Team Group: Elic Ayomanor, Tony Pollard, Tyjae Spears (on/off), Chig Okonkwo, Van Jefferson, Chimere Dike, Gunnar Helm

Opposing Setting: at most one / exactly one (these can be alternated in a variety of lineup builds)

Opposing Group: Jonathan Taylor, Michael Pittman Jr., Tyler Warren, Alec Pierce, Josh Downs

Game Notes:

Quarterback

At the end of the list, there is little reason to spend much time on the lousy Titans offense. Cam Ward leads his team to mediocrity with 5.7 yards per pass attempt over 33.71 chances per game. The rookie has thrown four touchdowns against five interceptions with little to no upside or signs of life. Cam Ward is QB19/20 on DraftKings and QB19/19 on FanDuel with the team ranking at the bottom of the stacks board for both points and value on both sites.

Running Backs

Tony Pollard is probably the most playable Titans option as RB18/17 and RB18/15 on DraftKings and FanDuel respectively. Pollard gains 3.9 yards per rush attempt on 14.0 carries per game with 2.9 targets providing a bit of additional padding. The running back has been better in years past, he is capable of decent gains but manages just 1.8 yards after contact per attempt and has found the end zone only twice this season. Pollard is a mixer as a second running back or flex option in lineups and not much more.

Tyjae Spears rates behind the starter as RB23/22 and RB24/23 with very little cause for shares outside of a bit of explosive play ability. Spears gains 4.8 yards per rush attempt on 4.7 carries per game in his limited action this season, the capable running back is no more than a longshot play in any form.

Receivers & Tight Ends

Elic Ayomanor leads a lousy collection of pass-catchers with Calvin Ridley still out of play. Ayomanor has two touchdowns that both came early in the season and he has slipped to just 1.0 yards per route run while drawing an 18.1% target share on routes run over 32.1 routes per game. Ayomanor works at an appealing 12.8-yard ADOT and has picked up three targets in the red zone but has been held below 30 yards in three straight games and has not scored since Week 3. Part of the problem is surely a 53.85% catchable target rate from Cam Ward, an ongoing problem that will not be alleviated in Week 8. Ayomanor is the team’s best option among pass catchers and he rates as just WR32/28 and WR29/22.

Chig Okonkwo is TE18/14 and TE19/15 across sites. The tight end sees 4.6 targets per game and gains just 1.23 yards per route run. Okonkwo has zero touchdowns this season and not much hope of one in Week 8, though it is not like any Titans receiver stands much more of a chance.

Van Jefferson Jr. slots in as a lousy WR39/31 and WR38/38 across sites. Chimere Dike is WR45/40 and WR42/44, and it gets wrose from there, though Gunnar Helm could be a sneaky play at zero ownership as TE22/22 and TE21/21, given his 3.0 targets per game with an 85.71% catchable target rate and an uptick to five targets in the most recent outing. Overall, none of these options has true appeal, they are all low-end dart throws and only Dike has found the end zone (once) this season.

The Titans are Stack 20/20 on both sites while failing to offer an option worth recommending in any format.
