This article provides final projections and rankings for Week 8 fantasy football, accounting for injuries and depth chart changes. Key points include:
1. No major changes occur at the quarterback position, but sleepers Geno Smith and Malik Willis are among the best non-QB1 picks for the week.
2. Thomas Carelli highlights D Andre Swift as a top-5 running back option now that Kyle Monangai is inactive. Tony Pollard is borderline an RB1 due to the inactive status of Tyjae Spears, while Corey Kiner emerges as a deep-sleeper with potential.
3. Saquon Barkley's backup, Jaydon Blue, might see more action as the Eagles lack depth with four running backs on injured reserve. The article also mentions Dallas Goedert as a startable tight end with DeVonta Smith out.
4. Wide receiver changes show Rashee Rice playing, which impacts Cyrus Allen's and Xavier Worthy's value. Kyle Williams benefits from AJ Brown's inactivity, and Darius Cooper is a top deep-sleeper with a hybrid role.
5. Dallas Goedert is projected as the Eagles' No. 1 pass-catcher, while Michael Penix Jr. has established rapport with Kyle Pitts, making him TE12. Dalton Kincaid's rib injury may limit his performance.
