On the Contrary with guest Josh Hermsmeyer, Week 8 NFL DFS Picks (FREE)

On the Contrary is back for Week 8! Unlike last year when we had the legendary Evan Silva joining us every Saturday, we’re going to host a different guest every single week to sit in with Alex ‘Awesemo’ Baker and Chris Spags. This week, we have Josh Hermsmeyer from FiveThirtyEight on the show to discuss the DFS slates on DraftKings, FanDuel, Yahoo and FantasyDraft and give out Week 8 NFL DFS Picks and fantasy football sleepers. Check out more NFL articles here.
