Week 8 DFS Advice

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- With the Eagles on a bye, I feel extra good about my picks this week.

Not really, but just go with it.

Listen: Andrew Porter's Week 8 advice

 

QB Plays (Price: DraftKings / FanDuel)

 

Matt Ryan (7100/800): At home vs. the Bucs. That's about as safe as it gets for you cash game players.

Ben Roethlisberger (6700/8200): I think his ownership will be lower than it should be, because of his return from injury. Plus, $6,700 on DraftKings is too low. Pittsburgh is home vs. the Bengals, I like the Steelers offense with Big Ben this week and every week really.

 

RB Plays (Price: DraftKings / FanDuel)

 

Mark Ingram (6400/8000): at home vs NYG, who is giving up the 10th most fantasy points to opposing RBs.

Gio Bernard (4800/6700): at PIT, a very good run defense, fifth best against opposing RBs. Bernard is Cincy's passing down back and he should play the majority of the snaps in a high scoring affair. Gio is a sneaky play for $4,800 in the DraftKings PPR format.

Jonathan Stewart (4100/6600): $4,100 on DraftKings! Say what? That's about RB 30! Stewart, one of the hardest tackling NFL running backs through six games is playing against the Colts, the 7th worst fantasy run defense, allowing over 100 yards per game and a TD.

 

WR Plays (Price: DraftKings / FanDuel)

 

Brandon Marshall (7600/8300): After a four catch, no touchdown performance (he dropped an easy TD) last week, ebb and flow says Marshall gets back to his usual seven-eight catch, 100-yard self against a bad Oakland pass defense.

Antonio Brown (7800/8400) – This is the last time you can get Brown for this cheap. He hasn't scored in four straight games, but that will correct itself. Big Ben back, I expect a monster Brown game.

 

TE Plays (Price: DraftKings / FanDuel)

 

Eric Ebron (3100/5500): A bit of a gamble here, but Ebron scored last week and is playing against a bad Chiefs secondary in London, in what expects to be a weird game. Gut feeling.

Delanie Walker (4100/5400): Last two games Walker has 15 combined catches on 19 combined catches.  He has just one touchdown this year. He's due. The Titans get the Texans this week.

 

DEF Plays (Price: DraftKings / FanDuel)

 

St. Louis Rams (3200/5100): At home vs. Colin Kaepernick. Need I say more?
