With no Week 8 byes or overseas games, we have a massive 13-game Main Slate that features most of the NFL’s fantasy stars. One way to gauge the slate is to look at it through the lens of player ceilings. 33 players on this slate have scored at least 25 FanDuel points in a game this season (13 quarterbacks, 10 running backs, 8 wide receivers, and 2 tight ends). We are starting to get deep enough into the season that looking at max scores can help us understand what type of overall score may be required to take down a large tournament. For example, here are the Top 20 players on the Week 8 Main Slate ranked by their highest fantasy score of the season:
