After missing the past 4 video games, Gronk got in an as well as is expected to suit up on Sunday against the Saints. Presuming he's active, Gronk is a must-start given the state of
the TE placement. He published at the very least 4 catches in each of his very first three games, racking up four times and also balancing just over 60 yards/game. If he's a surprise scratch, O.J. Howard as well as Cameron Brate would certainly divide the TE breaks, but it's tough to trust fund either in season-long dream organizations. WEEK 8 PPR RANKINGS:|||||Is T.Y. Hilton playing Week 8? Hilton(quad) made his period launching in Week 6 prior to missing out on Week 7.
He, eventually entering a complete session on Friday. In spite of being "doubtful" for Week 8's video game against Tennessee, he's plainly trending in the best direction and seems likely to play. Michael Pittman Jr. has actually become Indy's top pass receiver, however Hilton captured all four of his targets for 80 yards in his lone video game this year, which shows he's much from an afterthought. Against Tennessee's porous pass defense, he resembles a solid WR3. If he's out, Zach Pascal need to see additional targets and have flex advantage.

Is Odell Beckham Jr. playing Week 8?
Beckham (shoulder) was, however after playing in Week 7 regardless of failing to practice all week, it's most likely OBJ is more "probable" than "doubtful" for Week 8's video game versus Pittsburgh.
It's been a lackluster season thus far for Beckham, and also whether that's as a result of injury or something else, it's clear fantasy proprietors can't trust him as anything greater than a flex. We understand there's always big-play upside below, however with Jarvis Landry as well as Nick Chubb likewise healthy and balanced, OBJ is merely a complementary item in a run-heavy crime. The Steelers offer a good competition theoretically, but we still watch OBJ as an average flex.
WEEK 8 DFS SCHEDULES:||
Is DeVante Parker playing Week 8?
After missing out on the previous three games, Parker (shoulder, hamstring) is "doubtful" for Week 8's game versus the Bills. He's apparently "" to return, which is obviously great news for the Dolphins' passing game.
Parker contended least four catches and also 7 targets in every video game this year, but versus Buffalo's top-tier protection, Parker is bit greater than a PPR flex. If he's out once again, look for Mack Hollins to obtain additional targets. The main effect in dream leagues would be a boost in looks for Jaylen Waddle and also Mike Gesicki.
MORE WEEK 8 DFS:||
Is Jonnu Smith playing Week 8?
Smith (shoulder) exited last week's game early, but he and is "questionable" for Sunday's video game against the Chargers.
It's constantly difficult to inform who's in fact at risk of missing out on ready the Pats, so fantasy owners will certainly have to wait this one out up until the late afternoon. Offered the highly favorable competition and also Smith's TD upside, a minimum of a couple of dream proprietors will have him penciled right into their beginning schedules. That's dangerous, but if you do, have a back-up option from the late-afternoon/prime-time video games prepared to go. Dan Arnold (@ Seahawks), Tyler Conklin (vs. Cowboys), and also Evan Engram (@ Chiefs) are your best, widely offered options.
