Emari Demercado Looks To Gain Momentum In Week 8

Arizona Cardinals running back Emari Demercado is worth a start in Week 8 against the Baltimore Ravens.

Even though the Ravens are at or near the […]

Keaontay Ingram Not Worth A Start

Arizona Cardinals running back Keaontay Ingram should remain on the fantasy bench in Week 8. In Week 7, Ingram tallied just nine snaps on special teams and none on offense.

Joe Mixon Still A Flex Option In Week 8

Jaylen Warren Will Look To Stay Consistent In Week 8

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Jaylen Warren has scored as a top-24 fantasy back in four of his last five games and will hope to find similar success against the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 8.

Najee Harris A Flex Option Against Jaguars

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Najee Harris scored his first touchdown of the season in Week 7 and will look to stay productive against the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 8. Harris has out-touched Jaylen Warren in five of six contests and should continue to operate as Pittsburgh's lead back. Still, he hasn't been consistently efficient and […]
