2026 Trade Value Charts — Justin Boone's fantasy football quarterback breakdown for Week 8

Quarterbacks:

Justin Jefferson, WR, Vikings: With inconsistent performances and a recent ankle injury, Jefferson might be an opportunity for fantasy managers. The Lions have been the easiest matchup for him all season, allowing the fourth-most fantasy points to wideouts. Following that, Jefferson has a home game against the Bills defense, which has been generous to receivers. Expect bigger games from Jefferson as he begins to restore his low-end fantasy WR1 value.

Running Backs:

Emeka Egbuka, WR, Buccaneers: After missing a game with a concussion and a foot injury, Egbuka is back at practice and trending in the right direction for the upcoming matchups against the Falcons, Bears, and Lions. While his numbers haven't been impressive, he saw at least nine targets in three of his last four appearances, including a 14-yard rushing touchdown in Week 5. Given the Bucs' coaching staff's intent to get the ball in his hands, Egbuka is valued as a borderline low-end WR2 with top-20 upside.

Running Backs:

Chase Brown, RB, Bengals: Despite not topping 10 fantasy points in six tries, Brown has had consistent snaps (around 75%) and produced more in recent games. In the last outing against the Ravens, Brown handled 15 touches, including four receptions on five targets. His matchup against the Titans this week could be decisive, as Tennessee's defense has helped almost every running back they've encountered.
