Top NFL DFS picks for Sunday, Week 8
One of McClure's top NFL DFS picks for the Sunday main slate is Bengals running back Chase Brown at $7,100 on FanDuel and $6,300 on DraftKings. Browns' numbers have dipped in recent weeks as he's failed to top 40 yards on the ground in the past three games. He remains a frequently-targeted back in the passing game however with 20 targets over the past three weeks. He gets a favorable matchup against the Titans in Week 8, a team that ranks 21st in giving up Fantasy points to opposing backs. The Bengals are favored by double digits as well, giving Brown more upside late in the game.
He's also building around Ravens tight end Mark Andrews ($5,200 on FanDuel, $3,400 on DraftKings), who could get a big boost if Lamar Jackson returns. Jackson is trending towards a return from a three-week absence due to an ankle injury, according to multiple reports. Andrews is one of the more affordable tight ends in the NFL player pool as well, and he's a great way to get exposure to the potentially high-scoring Bills vs. Ravens matchup.
