Who would have thought that as we approached Week 8, the Carolina Panthers and the Atlanta Falcons would be competing for the NFC South lead? Neither team has been good and both are dealing with injuries, but this game still has some intriguing budget options for DFS.

Let's look at some of the best options for DFS to determine who is worth taking from this game.

Best quarterback picks:

Cash Games and Tournament: PJ Walker, QB, Carolina Panthers (DraftKings $5.2K, FanDuel $6.4K)

PJ Walker has shown to be the best option here and with him getting the start, it should be a solid chance of him dominating. This Falcons defense has allowed the most passing yards per game at 306.6 so there is a chance Walker has a huge game and they are going to be without All-Pro CB A.J. Terrell so the wide receivers have a better time getting open here.

Best running back picks

Cash Games: Tyler Allgeier, RB, Atlanta Falcons (DraftKings $5.4K, FanDuel $6.1K)

Tyler Allgeier is not going to win you weeks, but took the lead back role last week and ran for 10 times in five of the last six games. Without running back Cordarrelle Patterson still, the Falcons are still looking to dominate on the ground and Allgeier is the guy who will get the most action.

Tournament: D'Onta Foreman, RB, Carolina Panthers (DraftKings $5.3K, FanDuel $6.4K)

Injuries are a big reason why I am high on Foreman in this game as starting running back Chuba Hubbard is out with an ankle injury, which should make Foreman the starter here. He had his most impactful game of the season against Tampa Bay last week, as he had 15 rushes for 118 yards while also catching a pair of passes for 27 yards. If you are looking to build a team with some studs, Foreman could be a solid cheap route to go.

Wide receivers and tight ends

Cash game: DJ Moore, WR, Carolina Panthers (DraftKings $5.3K, FanDuel $6.2K)

DJ Moore should have a bigger game now that official Falcons CB A.J. Terrell is out for this game. This should allow him to dominate a decent cornerback throughout the game.

PJ Walker made sure the ball was heading his way last week as he finished with seven catches on 10 targets for 69 yards and a touchdown. This Atlanta defense is not as good so go with him to have a big game.

Tournament: Drake London, WR, Atlanta Falcons (DraftKings $5.1K, FanDuel $5.6K)

Drake London is arguably the most skilled WR player in this game and should be able to have a good game. He has been struggling a bit and is coming off of one target last week, but with the potential of Desmond Ridder entering this game to make the offense more dynamic, I will give it one more week with London as a potentially low ceiling player.
