Fantasy Football Players to Buy Low in Week 8
Jonathan Taylor, RB, Indianapolis Colts
It was great to see Jonathan Taylor back in action last week. He was coming off an injured ankle and had ten carries for 58 yards with seven catches for 27 yards.
With Sam Ehlinger taking over, I think there's more optimism with the Colts offense. Ehlinger is going to need his safety option, which will be Taylor. The Colts will also more than likely run the football more times with Taylor, with a young, inexperienced quarterback getting the starts.
Amon Ra-St. Brown, WR, Detroit Lions
Amon Ra-St. Brown started the season red hot. But he's had to deal with multiple injuries, which has hurt his stock. But because of that, you can try and take a chance on St. Brown at a discount and hope that he gets healthy and produces in the second half of the season.
If St. Brown's league owner is frustrated, scoop him up.
Michael Pittman Jr., WR, Indianapolis Colts
I know the Colts will run the football more with Ehlinger under center. But I still think Pittman will get his receptions in the air. Scouts acknowledged that Ryan couldn't throw the ball as well as he would've liked. Yet, Pittman still had success with Ryan throwing to him. It could only get better with a much younger quarterback under center. Plus, it seems like the Colts are invested in Ehlinger and believe he has what it takes to be a franchise quarterback.
I'd take a chance on Pittman.
Can Pittman and the Colts beat the Commanders now that Matt Ryan isn't throwing to the opposing team? If you think so, bet them at 40/1 odds at DraftKings with this amazing offer!
Keenan Allen, WR, Las Angeles Chargers
Keenan Allen was injured for most of the season. Now Mike Williams just got injured with Allen back on the field.
Allen only caught two passes. But what his fantasy owners might not know is that he was targeted 11 times. Justin Herbert and Allen will connect at a consistent pace moving forward. Allen's a volume pass catcher and would be a great addition to your team.

Fantasy Football Players to Sell High Before Week 8
Leonard Fournette, RB, Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Fournette only had 10 carries in Week 7 and was thrown to three times. Rachaad White's snap count is increasing, as we all expected.
Fournette was one of the more high-usage players to begin the season. But in a game where the Bucs really should've won, Fournette played in just 60% of snaps. I'm turning my back on Fournette. He's running out of gas and snaps.
Deebo Samuel, WR, San Francisco 49ers
Samuel's likely not going to run as much for the 49ers. He was also third in targets last week against the Chiefs, behind Brandon Aiyuk and George Kittle.
Samuel is still a must-start in fantasy, but his production might start to decrease in the second half of the season. Please get rid of him while you can.
Gus Edwards, RB, Baltimore Ravens
If you can find someone needing a running back, reach out to Gus Edwards.
Most owners like to see what a player did the week before. Edwards had two touchdowns n 15 carries for 66 yards. But Edwards faced a really bad Browns run defense and won't be the lead back forever.
Clyde Edwards-Helaire, RB, Kansas City Chiefs
The Chiefs' backfield is a three-headed monster. Although Isiah Pacheco got the "start," the carries were still split between those two and Jerrick McKinnon.
Clyde got the touchdown for the Chiefs in the backfield. You can sell fantasy owners on what he did last week after he scored that touchdown.
