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.
