Trevor Lawrence News
Saturday, October 31, 7:34 AM
Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence should be among the top fantasy quarterbacks in Week 8 against the Indianapolis Colts. The Jaguars are coming off a Week 7 bye and a close Week 6 loss to the Houston Texans. They did score 31 points, so despite the loss, Lawrence and the Jaguars offense should feel good heading into a matchup with another division rival. The Colts are on a three-game losing streak and starting to trade off some of their veterans. The 4-2 Jaguars are heading in the opposite direction at the top of the division. If the Colts are truly starting to give up on the season, that could mean the Jaguars offense has a big game in what could be a blowout. The Indianapolis defense already sits at 20th against quarterbacks in fantasy, and Lawrence has put up 20-plus fantasy points in four of six games. That recipe means fantasy managers should feel confident in another top fantasy performance from Lawrence in Week 8.

Drake Maye News
Saturday, October 31, 7:53 AM
New England Patriots quarterback Drake Maye has been performing at an elite level lately, and he should continue to be started as a high-end QB1 in Week 8 against the Miami Dolphins. Maye is coming off one of the best four-game stretches in recent memory, amassing 1,199 passing yards, 129 rushing yards, 14 touchdowns, and just three interceptions during that span. The former No. 3 pick's resilience will be tested this week, as he enters a road divisional game without several of his top weapons. The Patriots will be without Mack Hollins (calf) and Romeo Doubs (shoulder), who are both on injured reserve. It also looks like A.J. Brown (knee) will be inactive; he is listed as questionable but is trending in the wrong direction after missing Friday's practice. That will leave Maye with a receiving corps of Rhamondre Stevenson, Hunter Henry, DeMario Douglas, Kyle Williams, and Efton Chism III. That's a group that lacks firepower, but Maye can still prevail as a strong QB1 option against a Dolphins defense that has allowed the sixth-most passing touchdowns to opposing quarterbacks in 2026.
