NFL DFS Week 8 | DraftKings Main Slate Breakdown + Best Values & Leverage

It's Week 8, and we're diving into the DraftKings NFL DFS main slate, offering fantasy football advice to help you set your lineups. We'll breakdown key decisions, like whether to invest in Jonathan Taylor or B. John Robinson, and explore daily fantasy values to maximize your potential.

We’re back with a full Week 8 rundown of the DraftKings main slate — no London game, 10 off-slate teams (ARI, DET, JAX, LV, LAR, SEA + SNF/MNF), and it’s National Tight Ends Day 😈. We debate the big decisions up top (Jonathan Taylor $9.5k vs. Bijan Robinson $8.8k, Jamar Chase vs. NYJ off 23 targets) and map out where to pay up (CMC, Bijan, Achan) vs. pay down (those juicy $4k WRs and sub-$4k TEs) so you can build tournament-winning stacks without punting the floor. We also hit the highest-total spots (CHI–BAL, DAL–DEN) and dig for leverage in NO–TB, BUF–CAR, MIA–ATL, NYJ–CIN, SF–HOU, and more.

You’ll get our favorite stacks and our take on discounted bellcows (Derrick Henry $6k, Saquon bounce-back), smart bring-backs, and TE pay-downs for the holiday (Dalton Schultz, Mason Taylor, Cade Otton). Plus: where we’re fading chalky price spikes, how to attack injury-thinned depth charts, and two complete lineup builds to copy/tweak.
