NFL Week 8 - DFS Values & Plays

Take advantage of the percentage a player is owned! The higher a player's exposure, the better you have to be at choosing other positions. Try to mix in different exposures to create your own unique lineup. Previous millionaire winners have a total ownership percentage of 100.56% each week, and the range between 75%-125% is recommended to increase your chances of winning.

QB: Joe Flacco, $5,400 (1.23% Ownership)

Joe Flacco is flying under the radar this week, but the setup couldn’t be better. He’s surrounded by an explosive supporting cast that gives him multiple ways to rack up points, and he draws a dream matchup against a Jets defense that’s been downright abysmal. Despite his proven ability to push the ball downfield and distribute efficiently, Flacco remains one of the cheapest quarterback options on the slate — a gift for DFS players looking to jam in high-priced studs elsewhere. With his team sitting as nearly a touchdown favorite and carrying an implied total north of 25 points, the game script projects perfectly for Flacco to air it out and deliver one of the best point-per-dollar performances of the week.

RB: Quinshon Judkins, $6,500 (5.55% Ownership)

   Quinshon Judkins draws a tough matchup against a stout New England run defense, but he remains the engine of this Browns offense. Cleveland has made it clear they want to control games on the ground, and Judkins has been the focal point of that strategy. The Browns’ ability to slow down opposing offenses — as they did against Green Bay — should help keep this contest close enough for the run game to stay fully in play. Even if efficiency takes a small hit, Judkins’ volume and red-zone involvement make him a strong bet to pay off his DFS salary. Sometimes you chase matchups — this week, you chase workload..

WR: Wan'Dale Robinson, $5,200 (9.05% Ownership)

   Wan’Dale Robinson continues to be one of the most quietly consistent volume plays in DFS. He ranks 15th in the league in target share at 24%, and with Jaxson Dart playing great football, Robinson has been balling. He already torched this same Philadelphia defense back in Week 6, finishing as the WR 10 on the week — and while another top-10 outing might be ambitious, he’s simply too cheap for the role he’s playing. Philly’s defense has been middling at best, and Robinson’s short-area usage combined with Dart’s recent rhythm make him a strong candidate to outperform his salary once again.

TE: Kyle Pitts, $3,900 (5.18% Ownership)

   Kyle Pitts quietly remains a key piece of this offense, tied for sixth in team target percentage and averaging over six targets per game — fifth among all tight ends. That kind of volume is rare for his price point, and it sets him up nicely against a Miami team that often beats itself. The Dolphins are averaging just over 28 minutes of possession across their last three games, meaning opponents are getting around three extra possessions per contest. If that trend continues, Pitts could easily capitalize on the added opportunities, making him a sneaky mid-tier play with legitimate upside in a game where efficiency might not even be required to hit value.
