Fantasy Football picks: Five bounce back players for Week 8

With a lack of NFL content early on in the week, this will be a great addition to our already stacked group of weekly articles. This piece will include five fantasy football picks that I believe have a great chance to bounce back for the upcoming week. I will go into detail on why I feel each individual player has a chance to bounce back, with various stats, defensive breakdowns, etc.

This is an article that I believe you can use throughout the entire week as you are building lineups, especially if you are having a hard time deciding between a certain player or two.

This is something that we will release each week on Tuesday, that way you have a great head start on who to look at for your initial research. We will try to cover a player at each position, but I really want to focus on the players that have the best potential to bounce back regardless of the position.

This is not something that is reflective of a player’s performance for the entire season but is only based on performance from the previous week. Ownership will also not be taken into account in this article, as we will not have a good idea this early in the week on any accurate ownership numbers.

As reference, the main websites I used are Pro Football Reference, and Football Outsiders, along with RotoGrinders tools, you may see stats such as QBR (Total Quarterback Rating) DYAR (Defense-adjusted Yards Above Replacement) DVOA (Defense-adjusted Value Over Average), as well as some more common terms we all know, such as totals yards, touchdowns, interceptions, etc. Let’s dive in!
