Fantasy Football Week 8 Rankings – Wide Receivers HALFPPR

To differentiate between all the “Start ‘Ems” on my Fantasy Football Start Em, Sit Em page, you can check out the Weekly Fantasy Football Rankings, so you can figure out whom to start between Player X and Player Y.

Below are my fantasy WR rankings and a set of links for my positional Weekly NFL Fantasy Football Rankings. Keep in mind that this list is for this week only; not the entire rest of the season.

The rankings are based on a HALFPPR scoring system. Each player has Walterfootball.com’s projected stats and standard scoring points.

  1. Justin Jefferson, WR, Vikings (at Rams)- 23 Points
    7 Catches, 110 Receiving Yards, 1 TD.
    Justin Jefferson is matchup-proof, but this is a good matchup anyway.

  2. Ja'Marr Chase, WR, Bengals (vs. Eagles)- 18 Points
    6 Catches, 90 Receiving Yards, 1 TD.
    The Eagles tend to allow big games to opposing top receivers.

  3. Tyreek Hill, WR, Dolphins (vs. Cardinals)- 18 Points
    10 Rushing Yards, 6 Catches, 80 Receiving Yards, 1 TD.
    The Cardinals struggle against top receivers, and Tua Tagovailoa might be back.

    6 Catches, 90 Receiving Yards, 1 TD.
    Cincinnati has a horrible secondary that hasn’t been able to stop No. 1 receivers.

  5. Amon-Ra St. Brown, WR, Lions (vs. Titans)- 18 Points
    6 Catches, 90 Receiving Yards, 1 TD.
    Amon-Ra St. Brown isn’t quite the consistent PPR machine anymore, but he should still be a good producer in this game.

  6. CeeDee Lamb, WR, Cowboys (at 49ers)- 17 Points
    6 Catches, 80 Receiving Yards, 1 TD.
    The 49ers are usually solid against slot receivers, but CeeDee Lamb is a different breed.

    6 Catches, 80 Receiving Yards, 1 TD.
    The Buccaneers won’t be able to stop Drake London.

  8. Zay Flowers, WR, Ravens (at Browns)- 17 Points
    6 Catches, 80 Receiving Yards, 1 TD.

    5 Catches, 70 Receiving Yards, 1 TD.
    Cooper Kupp could return this week.

  14. Tee Higgins, WR, Bengals (vs. Eagles)- 14 Points
    5 Catches, 60 Receiving Yards, 1 TD.
    Tee Higgins has worked himself into shape and is a solid option again.

  15. Amari Cooper, WR, Bills (at Seahawks)- 14 Points
    4 Catches, 60 Receiving Yards, 1 TD.
    Amari Cooper will have a chance to produce better numbers in this game.

  16. Courtland Sutton, WR, Broncos (vs. Panthers)- 14 Points
    4 Catches, 60 Receiving Yards, 1 TD.
    Courtland Sutton will rebound from last week’s dud.

    Darnell Mooney projects very well this week.

    D.K. Metcalf was carted off the field last week.

  20. George Pickens, WR, Steelers (vs. Giants)- 14 Points
    4 Catches, 60 Receiving Yards, 1 TD.
    George Pickens looks much better with Russell Wilson at quarterback.

  21. Davante Adams, WR, Jets (at Patriots)- 13 Points
    4 Catches, 50 Receiving Yards, 1 TD.
    Davante Adams will be better in his second game with the Jets.

  22. Brian Thomas, WR, Jaguars (vs. Packers)- 12 Points
    3 Catches, 50 Receiving Yards, 1 TD.
    Brian Thomas will see some coverage from Jaire Alexander.

    Terry McLaurin has a tougher matchup this week.

    Status unknown.

    The Titans are missing both of their outside cornerbacks.

  29. Christian Watson, WR, Packers (at Jaguars)- 11 Points
    2 Catches, 40 Receiving Yards, 1 TD.
    Christian Watson is back, and he could take advantage of one of Jacksonville’s blown coverages.

  30. Jaylen Waddle, WR, Dolphins (vs. Cardinals)- 10 Points
    10 Rushing Yards, 5 Catches, 70 Receiving Yards.
    It’s tough to justify Jaylen Waddle unless Tua Tagovailoa returns.

  31. Demario Douglas, WR, Patriots (vs. Jets)- 10 Points
    6 Catches, 70 Receiving Yards.
    Drake Maye seemed to prefer throwing to Demario Douglas, who got banged up in England.

    Just a middling matchup for Jordan Addison.

  37. Quentin Johnston, WR, Chargers (vs. Saints)- 8 Points
    4 Catches, 60 Receiving Yards.
    Regression to the mean was likely, but this matchup is a good one.

    4 Catches, 60 Receiving Yards.


  39. Chris Olave, WR, Saints (at Chargers)- 8 Points
    4 Catches, 60 Receiving Yards.
    Chris Olave should be back, but he’s not a great option with Spencer Rattler as the starter.

  40. DeAndre Hopkins, WR, Titans (at Lions)- 8 Points
    4 Catches, 60 Receiving Yards.


  41. Rome Odunze, WR, Bears (at Redskins)- 7 Points

    Xavier Worthy will have to do more with Rashee Rice out.

  48. Josh Downs, WR, Colts (at Texans)- 7 Points
    4 Catches, 50 Receiving Yards.
    Josh Downs will be at his best with Joe Flacco.

  49. Michael Pittman, WR, Colts (at Texans)- 7 Points
    4 Catches, 50 Receiving Yards.
    So much for being out for a few weeks.

  50. Wan'Dale Robinson, WR, Giants (at Steelers)- 7 Points
    5 Catches, 50 Receiving Yards.

    3 Catches, 50 Receiving Yards.


  57. Alec Pierce, WR, Colts (at Texans)- 6 Points
    2 Catches, 50 Receiving Yards.

    3 Catches, 50 Receiving Yards.


  59. Christian Kirk, WR, Jaguars (vs. Packers)- 6 Points

    3 Catches, 50 Receiving Yards.


  65. Tyler Lockett, WR, Seahawks (vs. Bills)- 6 Points
