Top Tight Ends to Start in Week 8 Fantasy Football

Lambeau Field, Green Bay, USASat Oct 26 2024
Week 8 in fantasy football is almost here, and choosing the right tight ends can make or break your lineup. Tucker Kraft is a top pick this week, having scored three touchdowns in his last four games. He's facing a Jacksonville Jaguars defense that's been generous to tight ends. Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love has been targeting Kraft frequently, making him a reliable option. David Njoku from the Cleveland Browns is another must-start tight end. He had a big game in Week 7 with 10 catches, 76 yards, and a touchdown. Njoku will face the Baltimore Ravens, who have struggled against tight ends. Despite not allowing a touchdown to tight ends, the Ravens gave up 100 yards to Cade Otton last week. This could be a high-scoring game for Njoku. Cade Otton, from the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, had a career-high game in Week 7 with 100 yards and eight catches. With key receivers out, Otton could see even more targets against the Atlanta Falcons. Although the Falcons haven't given up a touchdown to tight ends yet, they've been more generous lately. Dalton Schultz, from the Houston Texans, is a high-risk, high-reward pick. He hasn't scored a touchdown yet, but he's facing an Indianapolis Colts defense that just gave up a touchdown to Jonnu Smith. The Colts have been one of the worst against tight ends this season, making Schultz a streaming option. These picks are based on recent performance and upcoming matchups. Always keep an eye on injuries and lineup changes as they can affect player performance.
