Fantasy 32: Key Week 8 tips on every team

Fantasy, Fantasy NFL, NFL

Below are 32 notes covering each of the NFL's 32 teams from a fantasy perspective. Use these tidbits to make the best waiver-wire, trade and lineup decisions for Week 8. Be sure to check back each week of the season for a new version of the Fantasy 32.

Throughout this piece, I'll be referencing OTD, which stands for opportunity-adjusted touchdowns. It is a statistic that weighs every carry/target and converts the data into one number that indicates a player's scoring opportunity. For example, if a player has an OTD of 3.0, it means that a league-average player who saw the same number of targets in the same area of the field would have scored three touchdowns.

Arizona Cardinals: Michael Floyd's 2016 season is not going as planned, but the veteran receiver's three touchdowns are certainly legitimate. Floyd ranks 15th in the league in receiving OTD (3.2), and only six players have exceeded his seven end zone targets. Floyd's snaps have dwindled recently, but he'll maintain flex value as long as Carson Palmer continues to feature him near the goal line. Six teams are on a bye this week, so even if John Brown (leg) returns, Floyd should be in lineups against Carolina's struggling cornerbacks.
