Week 8 fantasy WR rankings: Best starts at wide receiver

Show Caption

The wide receiver position has been turned upside down by injuries this season.

Just last week, Chris Godwin, Mike Evans and Brandon Aiyuk suffered injuries that will sideline them for several weeks, if not the rest of the season. And there are still plenty of question marks this week.

Fantasy football rankings for Week 8 are based on the point-per-reception (PPR) scoring used in most seasonal and daily fantasy football formats. One point is awarded for every 10 rushing and receiving yards and one point for every 20 passing yards. Six points are awarded for touchdowns scored, four points for passing TDs and one point for receptions.

Rankings are compiled by Daniel Dobish, TheHuddle.com.
