Five fantasy football lists to help you incinerate the competition in NFL Week 8

Five fantasy football lists to help you incinerate the competition in NFL Week 8

Updated:

By: Dan Johnson

Fridays are for Five Lists of Five here at DKNetwork, and it’s National Tight End weekend! We’ve got the best fantasy football rundowns available across all our writers and content, which you can find on our weekly cheat sheet here.

Let me break this specific series of lists down for you again, however: All I want is for you to be better than your friends. You’re going to be surrounded by them on Sunday, probably. How sweet would it be if you could be sure you’ve checked every box possible that might guarantee you a resounding victory this week? Some kick-your-feet-up insights? I’ve got some.

Again—I know my audience. The smoke-break audience. The quick-scan-of-the-phone-on-the-way-to-the-fridge audience. The give-me-as-much-info-as-possible-as-fast-as-possible audience. I’m a man of the people.

And so, once more: Five Lists of Five. Think of these as byte-sized, two-minutes-to-yourself lists to scan during your weekend as you foam at the mouth for any competitive fantasy edge. As much relevant analysis as I can fit into, like, 250 words per player.

For those of you following the verbiage of these rundowns: I went with incinerate today because, here in southern Maine, it is as autumnal as all getout, and I can smell evening bonfires down the road.

Also, the visuals of setting my opponents’ scores on fire and engulfing their fantasy football Week 8 hopes in glorious flames—it’s all just wildly pleasing.
