Who to start in fantasy football: Week 8 rankings, start-sit advice for PPR, standard, superflex scoring image

Compared to last week, the prep for Week 8 looks like a breeze. There are just two byes (Raiders, Ravens) instead of six; there are only a couple (mild) weather worries compared to legit downpours; and the injuries...well, the injuries are the same, as guys like Saquon Barkley (ankle), Antonio Brown (ankle), Julio Jones (hamstring), and Kenny Golladay (knee) have already been ruled out and Dak Prescott (calf), Austin Ekeler (hip), Rob Gronkowski (ribs), T.Y. Hilton (quad), and Kadarius Toney (ankle) are "questionable." In an effort to make things a little easier for you, we've compiled all of our Week 8 fantasy rankings (PPR, standard, and superflex) in this article to help with your last-minute start 'em, sit 'em calls. Consider it your one-stop cheat sheet if you've put off deciding who to start until Sunday morning.
