Fantasy Football Week 8 Bye-Week Survival Guide

In-Depth Analysis

### Quarterback With Jared Goff and Sam Darnold on bye, viable streaming options include Jaxson Dart, who faces a favorable matchup against the Eagles. Dillon Gabriel, Michael Penix Jr., and veteran Joe Flacco are also worth considering depending on your league's availability.

### Running Back The running back position is particularly thin due to the bye week. Kimani Vidal and Woody Marks are top priorities. Tyler Allgeier presents significant upside and should be rostered where available.

### Wide Receiver Replacing the production of Puka Nacua, Jaxon Smith-Njigba, and Amon-Ra St. Brown requires strategic additions. Romeo Doubs and Jayden Reed of the Packers, along with Josh Downs and Alec Pierce of the Colts, offer potential.

### Tight End Trey McBride, Sam LaPorta and Brock Bowers being on bye further complicates TE landscape. Harold Fannin Jr. , Mason Taylor , Cade Otton , and Dalton Schultz are deeper-league options.

### Defense/Special Teams Streaming defenses can provide an edge. The Buffalo Bills (vs. CAR), Los Angeles Chargers (vs. MIN), and Atlanta Falcons (vs. MIA) are solid choices for Week 8.
