Welcome to Week 8!

This is our first “bye-mageddon,” as six teams (the Cardinals, Lions, Jaguars, Raiders, Rams and Seahawks) are all off the board. That leaves us without wide receivers Puka Nacua, Amon-Ra St. Brown, Jaxon Smith-Njigba, Davante Adams, Brian Thomas Jr., Marvin Harrison Jr., Jakobi Meyers, Jameson Williams and Travis Hunter.

For the first time since Week 3, there is no international game on the NFL schedule ... so feel free to sleep in on the West Coast!

This week’s WR risers include Rome Odunze, Courtland Sutton and Chris Olave, all of whom have very favorable matchups heading into the week. On the flip side, injuries to stars like Nico Collins, Garrett Wilson, and Mike Evans have managers scrambling for dart throws and streamers.

With that said, here are my complete fantasy football wide receiver rankings for the eighth week of the NFL season.

Be sure to check back all week for daily updates!
