OwnersBox NFL DFS Strategy: Top Quarterback Plays for Week 8’s Main Slate

The SuperFlex format on OwnersBox NFL DFS makes it extremely important to get quarterbacks and their stacking partners correct since you’re likely to be rostering two players from the position. SuperFlex DFS also causes the best DFS plays at quarterback to be higher owned, but when the value is there it can be hard to fade.

OwnersBox NFL DFS Strategy: Top Quarterbacks

Given the importance of finding standout QBs, let’s take a look at the best quarterbacks for NFL Week 8 using Stokastic’s custom OwnersBox NFL DFS projections.

OwnersBox DFS Quarterback Plays

Lamar Jackson, $7,300

Jackson has the highest projection and he is the top point-per-dollar play on the entire slate. Jackson is facing a Cardinals defense ranked 31st in pass DVOA and 29th in run DVOA. Jackson has reasonably priced stacking partners in Zay Flowers ($5,400) and Mark Andrews ($5,500).

Jalen Hurts, $7,500

Hurts has the second-best projection and third-best value score on the slate. Hurts is facing a Commanders defense ranked 27th in pass DVOA and 14th in run DVOA. Hurts has solid stacking partners at varying price points in A.J. Brown ($7,400), DeVonta Smith ($5,800), and Dallas Goedert ($4,600).

Patrick Mahomes, $7,700

Mahomes is the most expensive quarterback on the slate, but with good reason. Mahomes faces a Broncos defense ranked 32nd in pass DVOA and 31st in run DVOA. Mahomes can always be paired with Travis Kelce ($7,100), and rookie Rashee Rice ($5,000) has also carved out a role for himself in the Chiefs offense.

Dak Prescott, $6,200

Prescott has the second-best value score on the entire slate. Prescott can be paired with CeeDee Lamb ($6,800), Brandin Cooks ($4,700), Michael Gallup ($3,700), tight end Jake Ferguson ($3,900), or even running back Tony Pollard ($6,500).

C.J. Stroud, $6,200

Stroud faces a Panthers defense ranked 18th in pass DVOA and 32nd in run DVOA. Stroud can be paired with Nico Collins ($5,300), Tank Dell ($5,000), or tight end Dalton Schultz ($4,300).
