7 Players Whose Stocks Are Rising in Week 8 (+ Buy Low/Sell High Candidates)

Nobody’s stock is falling again this week. Kendall Valenzuela, Dwain McFarland and Peter Overzet go through the fantasy football players whose utilization moved going into Week 8 — and what’s actually driving each one.

Colston Loveland finally arrives as a mid-range TE1 after a season of waiting. KC Concepcion and Omar Cooper both climb to low-end WR3. At running back, Ollie Gordon rises to a mid-range RB2, Jonah Coleman jumps to a high-end RB2, and Josh Jacobs sits as a high-end RB2 with RB1 upside. And Justin Jefferson holds steady as a high-end WR1, with the usage behind that worth a closer look.

Then the part your league isn’t thinking about yet. Is Nico Collins a buy low right now? And is Cam Skattebo a sell high while someone still wants him?

They also play Dwain-Libs on the thresholds that would move players again this week: what route share makes Luther Burden a borderline WR1, what gets Eli Raridon to a high-end TE2, and what puts Ja’Kobi Lane in WR4 territory.

And they close with the moves to make before your league-mates get there — Dwain on Seth McGowan, Pete stashing Nicholas Singleton.
