At the bye week, the Cleveland Browns are a 2-6 football team and currently hold the No. 4 pick in the 2026 NFL Draft. Cleveland couldn’t stack wins in Week 8 against the New England Patriots after defeating the Miami Dolphins the previous week.

The Jacksonville Jaguars had a bye in Week 8, but they did get some invaluable tape on some of their remaining opponents this season.

START Marvin Mims Jr.: The Denver WR is an ideal Week 8 replacement for Smith-Njigba or any other regular starter that you may be without this week, such as Amon-Ra St. Brown, Davante Adams or Marvin Harrison Jr. Mims is an upside play in a great matchup. You should also check your league's free agent list to see if he still might be available.

The Bucs could have won by wider margin, but some reviews took points off the matter but Tampa Bay was still able to secure a win.
