NFL Week 8 Rest of Season Fantasy Football Rankings, Trade Value Chart

By Josh Larky

Below, you’ll find my top 160 rest-of-season rankings, organized into tiers with point values, after Week 7’s action.

Treat these point values like a trade chart, and you’ll be pleasantly surprised to find you can’t trade away three bad players and turn them into Christian McCaffrey — the common issue with most other trade charts.

The bottom of this article contains the full trade chart in a color-coded and downloadable PDF.

Below each set of positional rankings with player tiers and trade values, you’ll find notes on players of interest.

  • Justin Herbert hasn’t looked the same since Mike Williams’ injury.
  • Trevor Lawrence has the potential to leapfrog into the QB8 slot if he has a solid Week 8.
  • Kyler Murray should return in Week 9, and he’s the only inexpensive quarterback with top 8 fantasy potential.

  • Christian McCaffrey remained in Tier 1 last week despite injury concerns and then had a massive Week 7 for fantasy purposes. He is the one elite difference-maker at the running back position.
  • David Montgomery has an outside chance to return from injury this week, but he stays in Tier 4 after Jahmyr Gibbs exploded in Week 7. There’s some chance Gibbs has forced the Detroit Lions’ hand here.
  • Jonathan Taylor was more efficient as a runner and receiver in Week 7 than Zack Moss. If Taylor’s workload doesn’t increase as a result in Week 8, Tier 4 looks like the right place for him. If he takes on 60 percent or more of the work, he’ll rise into the middle of Tier 3.
  • If Brian Robinson splits work again with Chris Rodriguez, Robinson will plummet in these rankings next week.
  • The Carolina Panthers are rumored to be going with a running back committee approach the rest of the season.
  • Javonte Williams led the Denver Broncos backfield in both carries and routes run in Week 7, the first time all season a Broncos running back has led in both categories.
  • Elijah Mitchell appeared to wrestle back the San Francisco 49ers RB2 role from Jordan Mason in Week 7.

  • Ja’Marr Chase’s fantasy points came back down to earth in Week 6, but he still commanded 13 targets from Joe Burrow. Fresh off the Week 7 bye, Chase needs another elite usage performance or he’ll fall back into Tier 2.
  • A.J. Brown tied the NFL record with five straight games of at least 125 receiving yards. Another big game could result in him taking Chase’s spot in Tier 1.
  • Justin Jefferson may return in two weeks; reports are his hamstring is healing faster than expected.
  • Marquise Brown gets Murray back soon and is my favorite buy in fantasy across any position.
  • Rashee Rice has been the Kansas City Chiefs’ most efficient receiver and is beginning to earn more reps and targets.
  • DeAndre Hopkins’ value has cratered with Ryan Tannehill’s high ankle sprain. Will Levis draws the start in Week 8, and this is most likely a pass attack to fully fade.

  • George Kittle had another big game in Week 7, but remains in Tier 6 because Deebo Samuel was out. If Kittle has a strong performance when Samuel returns, he’ll move up to Tier 5.
  • Dalton Kincaid rises with Dawson Knox undergoing wrist surgery.
  • Trey McBride shoots up these rankings with Zach Ertz headed to Injured Reserve.
  • Pat Freiermuth is still ranked aggressively, despite getting put back on Injured Reserve (hamstring). His target-earning potential his first two seasons is affording him slightly more optimism for fantasy production during the stretch run in Weeks 15-17.

Players in the chart are organized by position and tier. The order is: QB, RB, WR, TE. For example, while Austin Ekeler appears ahead of Stefon Diggs, their values are similar. Ekeler plays running back, but Diggs is a wide receiver, hence the order.

There are four columns, with 40 players per column — 160 players in total. At the bottom of the trade value chart are the slightly expanded positional rankings with 205 total players.
