Fantasy Football Rankings: Hayden Winks' QB, TE, D/ST, kicker Blueprint for Week 8

Analyst Hayden Winks has released his Week 8 positional breakdown for Yahoo Sports, featuring top-ranked quarterback Josh Allen alongside dual threats Lamar Jackson and Drake Maye. Allen leads all signal-callers with an average of 28.1 half PPR points per contest and projects for 22.9 points heading into a home matchup against a Baltimore defense that recently allowed four passing scores to Joe Burrow.

Jackson follows with a projection of 21.4 points as he works back from an ankle issue, supported by coordinator Declan Doyle's scheme drawing strong outings from targets like Zay Flowers and Ja'Kobi Lane.

Meanwhile, Drake Maye matches Jackson's 21.4 projected points for the week, riding a recent surge that includes leading all quarterbacks with 0.41 EPA per dropback over his last four starts. Winks notes that while DJ Moore is expected back for Buffalo and Lamar Jackson is tracking toward a return, managers should monitor these weekly columns closely up until Sunday morning for final ranking updates across positions.
