Welcome back to week 8 of the college football season.  On tap below we have the analysis for the early game kickoffs this Saturday. Once again we hope to provide you with some great picks.  Hopefully you listened last week to combo Seth Russell and Corey Coleman!  You are going to see it again!

DraftKings DFS College Football Week 8 Plays of the Day

Quarterback

1st tier – Seth Russell – Baylor – $9400

Can we go to the well too many times?   Until he stops scoring 40 fantasy points a game I have to start him. The only risk this week is if they get out to a huge lead and does not play much in the second half.  Other than that, ISU does not have a very good defense.

2nd tier — Perry Hills – Maryland – $5700

I call him an affordable Greg Ward Jr.  He has been named the starter and took charge with almost 200 yards on the ground as a QB!  While he probably won’t put up those kind of numbers, he is worth a look at $5700.

Running Back

1st tier — Derrick Henry – Alabama – $8200                                                              

        Henry by far is the most talented backs in the early games this week. He is almost a sure thing for 100 plus yards and   Alabama is looking like a top 5 football team again as well.

2nd tier –D’onta Foreman – Texas – $3900

He has been getting more and more carries and is producing much better than his counterpart, so I like him to once again shine in an improved UT team that salvaged their season by beating Oklahoma.

Wide Receiver

1st tier — Corey Coleman – Baylor – $8600

Again, I do not care about his price, he scored 50.6 fantasy points last week and is averaging 41 for the year. I cannot bench him until he does otherwise.  Like Russell, the only risk is him not playing a full game.

2nd tier — Ricky Jones – Indiana – $4500

He just keeps having decent games! Nothing great, but he normally gets you mid double digits each week.  In a 50/50 contest that is very important.

Sleepers

Rodney Mills – UMASS – WR – $3400

This TE is one of a kind, as he can catch 100 yards a game when healthy. I think the value here is great, even in a tough match-up against Toledo.

David Richards – Arizona – WR $3200

They are playing WSU, so they could score 40 points in this one.  With that being said, the WR will have to get some of that action.
