Week 8 of the 2025-26 NFL season continues with a great Sunday slate. There are far more ways to get involved in the action than just via traditional betting. One of the more unique features on DraftKings this season is Pick6 Fantasy Football!
Here are my top Pick6 plays for the Week 8 Sunday slate.
Tyler Warren More Than 0.5 Rushing + Receiving Touchdowns
Tyler Warren has had a great start to his rookie season. Warren was the second tight end taken in the draft, after Colston Loveland, but many considered him to be the most talented tight end in the class. He has played a key role in this remarkable Colts offense this season. The Colts rank first in the NFL in offensive EPA/play, moving it with ease on the ground and through the air. Warren has been a consistent weapon for Daniel Jones, averaging 62.7 receiving yards per game this season. Just like Brock Bowers did as a rookie last season, Tyler Warren leads all tight ends in receiving yards this season. Warren has also become a favorite red-zone target of Daniel Jones in recent weeks. He has now scored a touchdown in four straight games heading into Week 8. The Titans rank 27th in defensive EPA/dropback, making it unlikely that they are the team that finally slows down the Colts’ offense. Warren should have another big game and score a touchdown for the fifth straight week.
Josh Allen More Than 227.5 Passing Yards
Josh Allen and the Bills should put forth a top effort after the bye week. Before the bye, the Bills lost two straight games to the Patriots and Falcons. New England looks to be the real deal, meaning the Bills will not cakewalk to an AFC East title like they have in the past. The bye week should have done Buffalo wonders to fix what went wrong in those two losses. The Panthers are getting deserved praise for turning their season around and winning three straight games. However, two of those three wins came against arguably the two worst teams in the NFL, the Jets and the Dolphins. The other came against the Cowboys, who have one of the worst defenses in the NFL. This fully rested Bills team should come out firing and hit Carolina in the mouth from the opening kick. The Panthers rank 19th in defensive EPA/dropback, so Allen should attack them through the air. The one time during this winning streak that the Panthers played a real offense, Dak Prescott threw for 261 yards. Josh Allen should clear this number with a great game plan coming off the bye.
Bijan Robinson More Than 132.5 Rushing + Receiving Yards
Bijan Robinson is having a sensational season for the Falcons. He ranks second behind only Christian McCaffrey in scrimmage yards this season, despite playing one fewer game than the other players at the top of the list. He is averaging an incredible 152.3 scrimmage yards per game on the season. Depending on how the opposing defense plays it, Robinson can attack on the ground or through the air. He has two games this season with over 100 rushing yards and two with over 100 receiving yards. The Dolphins have a horrific defense, and Robinson should run wild against them. Miami ranks 31st in defensive EPA/play and 27th in defensive rushing success rate. Robinson has been even better at home, averaging 181 scrimmage yards per game in Atlanta this season. Everything sets up for Robinson to run wild and get over this number on Sunday.
