Week 8 NFL Advanced Analytics Superstars
Which players from Week 8 helped put their team in the best position to succeed in terms of advanced metrics?

Wide Receiver: Odell Beckham Jr.

highlight reel from this week doesn't give his ridiculous skillset justice, but it does includes some pretty great touchdown celebrations. Leading all receivers with 39 PPR fantasy points this week, Beckham's return to his home-town state was a memorable one.

Among other wide receivers this week, Demaryius Thomas has his best outing of the season, picking up 168 yards on just 8 catches. A lot of the chalk plays in daily fantasy went off this week with Alshon Jeffery and A.J. Green each surpassing double digit receptions, 100-plus yards and a touchdown each. Julian Edelman and Malcom Floyd buoyed their weekly performances by each putting up two touchdowns.
