Week 8 NFL Player Props: Expert Prop Picks and Anytime Touchdown Bets (2025)

Saquon Barkley - Fantasy Football Rankings, NFL Injury News, DFS Lineup Picks

Dave's Week 8 NFL player props picks and anytime touchdown wagers. Get his best Week 8 NFL player prop bets with odds, expert analysis and predictions. Top weekly NFL prop bets and winning picks.

Week 8 of the 2025 NFL season has arrived, and with it comes another week of player prop betting. A quick aside - remember to always make adjustments to your player prop bets as the sportsbooks make theirs. A great example of this is Quinshon Judkins in Week 7. He had a dream matchup against the Miami Dolphins' terrible run defense, but his rushing yards prop opened in the mid-80s. By game time, it had been bet all the way up into the mid-90s, and whatever value may have been there was left in the dust. Fast forward to the end of Week 7 and, despite scoring three touchdowns, Judkins only ran for 84 rushing yards.

This is a good example of why you should never consider a prop an “auto-bet.” Even though Judkins was in a great matchup, his yardage prop was priced far too close to his ceiling. This happens quite frequently in the prop market, and many betting syndicates and handicappers fail to take this into account. Luckily for us in this space, we decided to take a different route and chose to attack the over on Judkins' longest rush prop. We cashed that play in the second quarter when Judkins broke off a 46-yard touchdown run. The takeaway? Continue to attack plus matchups, but also recognize when a prop has gotten too much steam and then look for more efficient ways to attack that plus matchup.

Week 8 Passing Prop Bets

Andy Dalton UNDER 214.5 Passing Yards (-114) Bet365 Sportsbook

Risk 1.1 Units to Win 1 Unit

Dalton is set to fill in for Bryce Young after the latter suffered a sprained ankle in last week’s win over the New York Jets. It’s a tough spot for Dalton as Buffalo’s defense has allowed just 167.2 passing yards per game, which is the second-fewest in the league.

Carolina’s best chance to remain competitive in this game will be to rely on its two-headed ground attack with running backs Chuba Hubbard and Rico Dowdle. That could also limit Dalton’s passing output in this game.

There is a scenario, though, where Carolina struggles to run the football and falls behind by double digits due to Buffalo’s high-powered offense. That game script is possible and would push Dalton to throw the football more often. However, it’s also likely that Buffalo’s defense will be motivated by a poor showing two weeks ago on Monday night football and will completely shut down Dalton and the entire Carolina offense.

This is a good spot to fade Dalton in a tough matchup, and I don’t expect Carolina to have much success throwing the football here, regardless of game script.

Jordan Love OVER 36.5 Yards Longest Completion (-117) Caesars Sportsbook

Risk .4 Units to Win .31 Units

Love has played well so far this year and has thrown 10 touchdowns against two interceptions through Green Bay’s first six games.

While this is a good matchup for the Packers' ground game, it's also a sneaky good spot for the Green Bay passing attack, too. The Steelers rank 21st in PFF’s pass coverage grade and have allowed the 11th-most passing yards to quarterbacks this year.

I like taking a shot on Love to connect on at least one big play in this game.

 

Week 8 Rushing Prop Bets

Tyler Allgeier OVER 9.5 Rushing Attempts (+105) Bet365 Sportsbook

Risk 1 Unit to Win 1.05 Units

Even though Bijan Robinson is the Falcons' clear-cut RB1, Allgeier has still recorded double-digit carries in four of the team’s six games this year. He has a great chance to eclipse double-digit attempts this weekend, as the Falcons get to face the hapless Miami Dolphins defense in Week 8.

Miami’s run defense has been the worst in the league. Even though they held Cleveland Browns rookie Judkins to 84 rushing yards, they still allowed him to score three rushing touchdowns. Miami also ranks poorly in several rushing metrics. The Dolphins rank 25th in FTN Fantasy's defensive rushing DVOA, 24th in PFF rushing defense grade, and allow a league-high 159.3 rushing yards per game.

With the Falcons listed as 7-point favorites, there’s a high likelihood they’ll be playing with a lead for most of this game. That should mean Allgeier gets plenty of volume.

J.K. Dobbins OVER 66.5 Rushing Yards (-110) Bet365 Sportsbook

Risk 1.1 Units to Win 1 Unit

We recommended the over on Dobbins' rushing yards in this column last week, and we are going right back to the well this weekend. Denver quarterback Bo Nix continues to play a frustratingly inconsistent brand of football. As a result, head coach Sean Payton may not fully entrust Nix to slice and dice the porous Dallas Cowboys secondary.

With Dobbins being Denver’s most effective running back, it becomes clear the Broncos will likely rely on their ground game to expose a Dallas defense that ranks 32nd in PFF's rushing defense grade.

This is another good spot for the veteran running back, and I believe there is a ton of value at the above number. He has a great chance to crack triple digits in rushing yards for the second time this year.

Saquon Barkley OVER 79.5 Rushing Yards (-111) DraftKings Sportsbook

Risk 1.11 Units to Win 1 Unit

Barkley has really struggled to get going so far in 2025. He has yet to record a single 100-yard rushing game and is averaging a minuscule 3.3 yards per carry. A large part of the problem has been the inconsistent play of Philadelphia’s offensive line. That unit has also dealt with several injuries.

Despite all of that, this could be the ideal spot for Barkley and the Philadelphia ground game to finally get rolling. Even though New York held Barkley to 58 rushing yards in Week 6, he averaged 4.8 yards per carry and looked every bit as explosive as we saw last year. The Giants' run defense also continues to be one of the worst in the league. New York allows 130.7 rushing yards per game, and that mark is the eighth-most in the NFL.

Philadelphia will also be eager to avenge a surprising Week 6 loss to New York. Expect them to get back to their fundamentals here and exploit the Giants’ poor run defense.

I am buying the dip on Barkley this weekend and am expecting a huge game. He is live to score multiple touchdowns here and might break the century mark on the ground, too.

Quinshon Judkins UNDER 66.5 Rushing Yards (-110) Bet365 Sportsbook

Risk .55 Units to Win .5 Units

Judkins had a big Week 7 against the Miami Dolphins, where he ran for 84 yards on the ground and scored three rushing touchdowns.

Things could be different this week as the Browns take on a New England Patriots team that allows the third fewest rushing yards per game in the NFL. The Patriots allow just 77.1 yards on the ground and rank sixth in defensive rushing DVOA.

Cleveland is also listed as a 7-point underdog in this game, and that could mean the team is playing from behind for the majority of this contest. That would also mean Judkins won’t have as many opportunities on the ground, and it would limit his rushing totals.

While Cleveland scored its second win of the season against Miami last week, this weekend is a totally different story. I am expecting quarterback Dillon Gabriel and the offense to largely struggle here, and expect New England to easily win this game. That makes this the perfect time to fade Judkins.

 

Week 8 Receiving Prop Bets

Romeo Doubs OVER 4.5 Receptions (+115) Bet365 Sportsbook

Risk 1 Unit to Win 1.15 Units

Doubs has been targeted at least eight times in the Packers' last three games. Quarterback Love is consistently looking Doubs’ way, and he is clearly emerging as one of Love’s favorite targets.

Pittsburgh ranks toward the middle of the pack in several defensive passing metrics, and ranks 24th in DVOA against opposing WR1s. Doubs certainly seems to be operating in that role for Green Bay and can produce against a Steelers defense that’s also allowed the fifth-most receptions to wide receivers.

I expect to see Doubs remain heavily involved in Green Bay’s passing attack and believe he should eclipse the above number.

Jaylin Noel OVER 31.5 Receiving Yards (-110) Bet 365 Sportsbook

Risk .55 Units to Win .5 Units

With Christian Kirk forced out of action last week due to a hamstring injury, Noel saw an expanded role on offense. He only played 43% of offensive snaps, but was targeted seven times and caught four passes for 77 receiving yards.

Now, Kirk and Texans WR1 Nico Collins have both been ruled out for the team’s Week 8 game. That should mean even more playing time for Noel.

It would come at a good time as the Texans play a San Francisco 49ers defense that ranks 28th in PFF’s passing defense grade. With Houston’s offensive line continuing to struggle, we would likely see the team deploy a high amount of quick passes and target the shallow and intermediate areas of the field. That’s where Noel can feast, and he could be live for a performance similar to the one we saw in Week 7.

I’ll take a shot on Noel building upon last week’s game and believe he should easily surpass this number.

George Pickens UNDER 57.5 Receiving Yards (-113) DraftKings Sportsbook

Risk .46 Units to Win .4 Units

CeeDee Lamb returned in Week 7, and he popped for a 5-110-1 game. Pickens still posted a quality outing and caught four passes for 82 receiving yards. However, Lamb’s return will undoubtedly hurt Pickens' upside moving forward. It could really come into play this week when facing a Denver Broncos defense that ranks seventh in defensive passing DVOA.

Additionally, with the Cowboys preferring to move Lamb all around the formation, Pickens could be destined for a date against Broncos star cornerback Patrick Surtain II. That would be problematic for Pickens' outlook, and it could really hinder his production in this game.

The Broncos have one of the best defenses in the league and are capable of neutralizing what's been a surprisingly effective Cowboys ground attack. If that happens, it would allow Denver’s pass rushers to take advantage of a Dallas offensive line that is a below-average pass-blocking unit, and Dak Prescott could be under constant duress.

There are too many factors potentially working against Pickens in this game, and it feels like a perfect time to fade him.

 

Week 8 Anytime Touchdown Bets

Chuba Hubbard Anytime Touchdown (+225) DraftKings Sportsbook

Risk .5 Units to Win 1.13 Units

Hubbard split touches pretty evenly with Dowdle last week, but he did beat Dowdle in offensive snaps by a 38-33 count. However, Carolina did not have any rushing plays inside the five-yard line last week, so we don’t know which one of these backs is the team’s preferred goal-line option.

Buffalo’s defense has been vulnerable on the ground this year, and Carolina will likely try to exploit this weakness. I’ll take a stab at Hubbard finding the endzone here since we don’t know which back will get goal-line work. Since Hubbard has the better odds compared to Dowdle, that makes him the preferred play.

Alec Pierce Anytime Touchdown (+240) FanDuel Sportsbook

Risk .5 Units to Win 1.2 Units

Pierce has yet to find the endzone this season, but he is coming off a 10-target game against the Los Angeles Chargers last week. The Colts take on the Tennessee Titans this weekend, and it’s a good matchup for Pierce and the offense.

Pierce is more than capable of getting behind a Titans defense that ranks 25th in defensive passing DVOA. I’ll take a shot at him to find paydirt in this matchup.

Romeo Doubs Anytime Touchdown (+200) DraftKings Sportsbook

Risk 1 Unit to Win 2 Units

Doubs appears to be emerging as Love’s go-to wide receiver. He has scored four touchdowns this year, but hasn’t found the endzone since his three-touchdown explosion in Week 4. I like taking a shot on Doubs to find the endzone at these odds.

 

Long Shot Props & Value Plays

Chuba Hubbard Most Rushing Yards in CAR vs. BUF (+480) FanDuel Sportsbook

Risk .2 Units to Win 1.2 Units

Caleb Williams Most Passing Yards on Sunday (+1700) FanDuel Sportsbook

Risk .2 Units to Win 3.4 Units

Breece Hall Most Rushing Yards on Sunday (+1700) FanDuel Sportsbook
