Baker Mayfield, Cleveland Browns

Yahoo Ownership: 41%

As has been the case in recent weeks, Baker Mayfield is owned in too many leagues to be considered for our top streamer, but he's free in enough leagues that we need to mention him.

Mayfield's run of fantasy-friendly matchups continues this week as he's on the road at the Pittsburgh Steelers, taking on a defense that has allowed the fourth-most fantasy points to opposing quarterbacks.

While he didn't light it up in Week 7 in a delicious spot at the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Mayfield still posted a good day with 20.9 fantasy points, making him last week's QB6. He's got some sneaky rushing upside, which helps his floor, as he's run it at least two times in all five of his games this season, including a 4-rush, 43-yard day versus the Bucs.

Our models have Mayfield as Week 8's QB19, forecasting him to score 16.12 points.
