For the fourth straight week, DraftKings main DFS fantasy football slate includes 10 games on Sunday afternoon. Even with two fewer games on the scoreboard for the week, the same number of games will take place on Sunday afternoon. Seven games kick off at 1:00 p.m. ET in Week 8 with three games in the later window around 4:00 p.m. ET. To help you as you get your lineup together, each week we’ll be running down the fantasy football rankings at each of the primary positions for the main DraftKings slate in this cheat sheet
Who are you buying or selling coming into the week, and what matchups can you not wait to attack? The 10 games include plenty of intriguing contests. The Cowboys visit the Broncos, and the Colts take on the Titans in the later two games on the slate, while there are three divisional games spread across the board as well. The 49ers visit the Texans, and the Ravens return from their bye against the Bears in two of the most intriguing, fantasy-friendly early matchups.
The fantasy football rankings in this post are based on what we know coming into the week on Monday, so stay tuned to DK Network for more news throughout the week to see if your lineup should be adjusted at all.
These player rankings are based solely on total output, independent of the players’ salaries. They do not account for value, ownership, ceiling or correlation, which should all be factors in building your final lineup. They are, however, a great starting point as you start to look ahead or as you compare specific options in a particular position.
To catch up on the top lineup from the Week 6 contest, check out my breakdown of the winning lineup. You can also find full rankings for the week at each position on my author page. The rankings on this page do not include any players from the prime time matchups, which are on separate slates. Each of the position-specific rankings includes all the players for the entire week.
