Fantasy Football Week 8 Rankings & Start/Sit Advice
Week 8 Player Notes & Start/Sit Advice
Raheem Mostert (MIA) at DET: Dolphins -3.5 | 51.5 O/U
- Mostert underwhelmed in Week 1 with 32 scoreless yards on five carries and a target, but in every game since then he has had 10-plus opportunities, and over the past month he has put up 360 yards and two touchdowns on 63 carries and 13 targets.
- The Lions are No. 29 in defensive rush DVOA (7.9%) and pass DVOA against running backs (33.0%).
Devin Singletary (BUF) vs. GB: Bills -10.5 | 47.5 O/U
- Since Week 3 (over his past four games), Singletary is No. 3 — behind only Saquon Barkley and Josh Jacobs — with a 76% snap rate (per our Snap Count Analysis Report), which he has leveraged into 340 yards on 43 carries and 23 targets.
- The Bills could run more than they usually do as big home favorites (-600 at Caesars).
- The Packers defense is No. 29 in rush SR (46.1%), No. 30 in rush EPA per play (0.055) and No. 31 in rush DVOA (10.9%). So, you know, not good.
Michael Carter (NYJ) vs. NE: Jets +1.5 | 40.5 O/U
- No. 1 RB Breece Hall (knee, IR) is out, and veteran James Robinson (recently acquired from the Jaguars) is unfamiliar with the offense.
- With QB Zach Wilson, the Jets have leaned into the running game with a 51.2% rush rate.
- In his 12 career games with 10-plus rushing attempts, Carter has averaged 83.4 yards from scrimmage and 13.0 FPPG.
- The Patriots defense is No. 32 in rush SR (49.7%) and No. 30 in pass DVOA against running backs (34.7%).
D’Onta Foreman (CAR) at ATL: Panthers +4.5 | 42 O/U
- With former No. 1 RB Christian McCaffrey traded to the 49ers, Foreman last week led the Panthers backfield with a 54% snap rate and 145 yards on 15 carries and two targets.
- In his six games last year with 12-plus opportunities, Foreman averaged 100.5 yard (per FTN).
- Backfield mate Chuba Hubbard (ankle) exited Week 7 early with an injury and might be limited if he plays this week.
- The Falcons defense is No. 31 in rush SR (48.4%).
