Happy Friday, RotoBallers! Welcome to our Underdog Fantasy NFL DFS prop picks for Week 8. We will be breaking down the NFL DFS action for the Underdog Fantasy contests! We will continue to focus on the NFL DFS props offered on Underdog called Higher/Lower (Over/Under).
Higher/Lower is traditional over/under DFS prop picks -- whether you think a player will score Over or Under the set lines, and choose your amount. You can parlay multiple picks together to vastly increase the juice (e.g., three picks = 6x your bet). Underdog Fantasy offers some of the industry's best and easiest-to-win NFL DFS games. At Underdog Fantasy, you're not playing against other people -- you're just playing against the projections.
Announcement: We have two awesome new Props Optimizers for the MLB, NBA, NFL, NHL, and NCAA! The PrizePicks Optimizer and Prop Bets Optimizer are both available in our new Props Premium Package, which includes exclusive access to RotoBaller's VIP Discord chat rooms for props and betting.

Brandon Aiyuk, 59.5 Receiving Yards (HIGHER)
The San Francisco 49ers will be without Deebo Samuel for at least one more week. This leaves another week for Brandon Aiyuk to continue to shine. He is coming off of his lowest target share game of the season with 22% in Week 7. However, he still finished the game with five receptions on six targets for 57 receiving yards. The game was a struggle all around for the 49ers offense, though. Aiyuk will be facing the Cincinnati Bengals defense that currently ranks 14th versus wide receivers, giving him a good matchup to hit his total of 59.5 receiving yards. He is currently projected near 71.5 receiving yards, with a 9.68% on going higher than his total using the Props Optimizer Tool.
Rashee Rice, 43.5 Receiving Yards (HIGHER)
Rashee Rice continues to be consistent in this Kansas City Chiefs offense. Rice put up another solid performance in Week 7 with five receptions for 60 yards and one touchdown. Now, he gets to face one of the worst defenses in the league, the Denver Broncos. He gets a low total once again with just 44.5 receiving yards. He has made the most out of his opportunities. With just a 13% target share on the season, he has now put up back-to-back games of 60 or more receiving yards. Travis Kelce may always be the main target but out of the other wide receivers, Rashee Rice is moving his way up to the top of the list.
Zay Flowers, 54.5 Receiving Yards (HIGHER)
Using the Proptimizer, Zay Flowers comes in with the second-highest implied total of -105 (51.28%) to hit the over on his receiving total. The rookie receiver has missed going over this total twice this season, which was Weeks 3 and 6. It's hard to miss when you hold the highest target share on the team. Flowers holds a 27% target share on the season while also holding a 93% route ran share. The Baltimore Ravens will be facing the Arizona Cardinals and they are the fifth-worst team against opposing wide receivers. Zay Flowers should have a feast waiting for him on Sunday.
Ja'Marr Chase, 82.5 Receiving Yards (HIGHER)
The San Francisco 49ers are coming off a short week and now have to figure out how to stop Ja'Marr Chase. After a slow start to the season, Chase has been ramping it up. Recording 140 or more receiving yards in two of his last four games, Chase is projected for 85.7 yards this Sunday. He is holding a 33% target share on the season while having a 98% route share. On top of that, the 49ers rank 22nd against opposing receivers. They allowed the Minnesota Vikings to record 378 passing yards in Week 7, one of the worst outings from their defense in recent weeks. The Bengals will be looking to copy that performance.
