NFL Week 8 DFS Picks: Draftkings and Fanduel Lineups

Okay, this week we have some big injuries that are giving us opportunity to pick up some cheap guys with a ton of value. First, with CJ anderson out, Devontae Booker looks to be the all-purpose back in a run-heavy offense thats playing one of the worst run defenses in football. He’s a must start in every lineup. Jacquizz Rodgers has received over 60 carries in his two starts with the Bucs and will be a must start as well until his price tag rises or Doug Martin comes back- whichever happens first. Jack Doyle will be a solid value play at TE as long as Dwayne Allen is out. His matchup against the Chiefs this week isn’t ideal but he’s currently the number 2 target for Andrew Luck so that has value. Spencer Ware is still cheaper than a lot of RBs but he’s probably not a value pick anymore. However, he’s basically what we expect from Jamal Charles so there’s that. Latavius Murray is back from his turf toe injury and without either of his backups really rising to the occasion while he was out, he’s resumed what appears to be a full work-load. He has a great matchup against Tampa and on Draftkings he’s going for 4500. Build your lineups around these guys and load up on heavy hitting WRs. Last week some big names let us down but that’s not going to happen often.
Vincent Jackson is out for the rest of the season, probably, which makes Mike Evans an even more potent threat despite his already top-tier status. He’s too expensive to be considered a true value play, but he’ll provide elite production in his good matchups despite a slightly sub-elite price tag. For instance, this week I’ll take him over both Julio and AJ Green who are more expensive than him. I like pairing him with Jameis Winston who has been playing well recently and has a juicy matchup against a generous oakland pass defense. He is currently the 12th QB in price and a great value play at the QB spot.
Carson Palmer against a Carolina defense that has been favorable for QBs also looks good. However, I have a feeling this Carolina defense will step up to the plate at some point this season and this could be the game. Palmer hasn’t had a great season. However, he did throw for almost 350 yards against Seattle last week, he just didn’t get any TDs. I’m probably not starting Palmer but I can see value if you decide to.
We’re at the half way point and things are starting to level out. I’m really confident in these lineups so we’re going to do them as 2 units each instead of 1.
