The List: Ranking Each Position for Week 8

Erik Smith releases his PPR fantasy football rankings for Week 8.

QB Rankings

 

  • I wrote up the Giants versus Chiefs game for our Sit/Start article this week, here’s an excerpt on Daniel Jones who makes a high-risk, high-reward streamer option this week: I have him ranked as the QB12, and while you could make a case for him as low as QB16, I’ve got him as a start this week. Jones isn’t great as a passer, ranking 26th in completion percentage at 63.5% and throwing just 5 touchdowns on the year. But that 2.1% TD rate is certainly due for some positive regression, and Jones ranks a respectable 10th overall in Air Yards per attempt per FantasyData. Sure, his 27% deep ball completion percentage ranks second from the bottom among qualified passers, but at least he’s trying! We know that Jones will add 2-4 points most weeks with his legs, rushing for 229 yards through six and a half games, and he’s chipped in two rushing touchdowns on the year as well, which helps offset some turnovers as well.
