Top 10 Running Back Studs - Best Fantasy Football RB Performances from Week 8

Foster Moreau Draws Nine Targets In Loss

Las Vegas Raiders tight end Foster Moreau led all Raiders pass-catchers with nine targets Sunday, catching six of them for 31 yards in the loss to the New Orleans Saints.

Mack Hollins Leads Raiders In Receiving

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Mack Hollins caught seven of his eight targets for 64 yards in the 24-0 loss to the New Orleans Saints.
