Quarterback

Derek Carr, raiders

next	Listing	FOB
against DEN	42%	$ 1

Carr has been a strong fantasy producer this season, with four Top 16 rankings in his last seven outings.

Week 10 offers a cap game chance for the Raiders QB as he faces a Broncos defense that gave Justin Herbert 278 yards and three touchdowns and Matt Ryan 284 yards and three scores in the last two. matches.

Carr, who racked up 650 total passing yards in his two meetings with the Broncos last season, is a solid streaming option this week.

Drew Lock, Broncos

at LV	20%	$ 1

Carr’s opponent is also worth a look as a potential one-week off replacement.

After throwing for 248 yards and three touchdowns against the Chargers in Week 8, Lock delivered his best performance of the season in Week 9 with 313 passing yards, two scores in the air, 47 rushing yards and another trip to the end zone with his legs.

The Raiders are one of the top 10 games for opposing passers-by and have given up several passing touchdowns in four of their last five games. You can feel confident using Lock for an extra week.

Streamer options: Baker Mayfield vs HOU (33% on list), Tua Tagovailoa vs LAC (24% on list), Philip Rivers at TEN (21% on list), Teddy Bridgewater vs TB (41% on list), Daniel Jones against PHI (30% registered), Kirk Cousins ​​at CHI (31% registered), Nick Foles against MIN (10% registered)

Running backs

Duke Johnson, Texans

next	Listing	FOB
at CLE	16%	$ 14

David Johnson is in concussion protocol, questioning his status for week 10.

With David starting early Sunday, Duke stepped into a workhorse role, playing over 81% of the shots while amassing 73 yards of scrum and one scoring against the Jaguars.

While the Browns aren’t the easiest front to use, Duke can be treated like a low-end RB2 in the fancy if David stays on the sidelines.

Ryan Nall, bear

next	Listing	FOB
vs MIN	0%	$ 12

Nall could find himself in a similar position to Duke Johnson this week, with starter David Montgomery also in the concussion protocol.

After Montgomery left, the 6-foot-2, 239-pound Nall was not carried but caught four passes for 35 yards and a touchdown with the Bears in return mode.

The only danger here is that Chicago has Lamar Miller (0% roster) on their practice squad and if he’s activated, there’s a chance the squad will integrate the veteran. Cordarrelle Patterson will also take into account some personal touches.

If Nall takes the start, he will be a top-of-the-line RB3 with an RB2 advantage. But Miller could complicate matters, turning them both into risky flex games.

Cam Akers / Malcolm Brown, Rams

next	Listing	FOB
vs SEA	30% / 24%	$ 9 / $ 7

While reports of Darrell Henderson have been optimistic about his chances of playing in Week 10, it should be noted that he was sent off from the Rams’ last game after worsening his thigh injury.

As we saw with Mark Ingram and the Ravens, the running back injury was minimized as they approached their week off, but when the team returned to training Ingram was unable to take the peloton. He has now missed two straight games.

While it’s not the same situation, the possibility that Henderson is injured more than we think gives us enough reason to pick up Akers and Brown.

If Week 8 was any indication, the Rams would use Akers as the main running back, with Brown being the more reliable option for passes. This would make Akers a potential low-end RB2 if Henderson misses the time, while Brown continues in his role as RB3 / flex.

Mike Davis, Giovani Bernard, DeeJay Dallas, Devonta Freeman, Latavius ​​Murray, and Jamaal williams are around the 60% mark and should be entered in almost all leagues.

High level backups Tony Pollard (34% enrolled), Alexander mattison (37% enrolled), Boston Scott (44% enrolled), and Brian hill (13% registered) should be registered in most leagues.

Flexible options: Matt Breida vs LAC (25% on list), DeAndre Washington vs LAC (2% on list), Gus Edwards at NE (37% on list), Jordan Wilkins at TEN (25% on list), La ‘ Mical Perine on Bye (36% registered), JD McKissic at DET (24% registered), Wayne Gallman vs PHI (25% registered), Troymaine Pope at MIA (1% registered)

Other backups on the list: Benny Snell vs. CIN (7% on list), Anthony McFarland Jr. vs. CIN (1% on list), Devontae Booker vs. DEN (1% on list), Adrian Peterson vs. WAS (54% on list), Travis Homer at LAR (1% registered), Kalen Ballage at MIA (1% registered), Joshua Kelley at MIA (42% registered)

Wide receivers

Allen Lazard, packers

next	Listing	FOB
against JAX	38%	$ 19

Lazard hasn’t played for week three, but he’s been training with the team for two weeks as he nears a comeback after core muscle surgery.

Although his biggest performance of the season (6-146-1) came with Davante Adams sidelined, Lazard established himself as the Packers’ second-best offensive receiver.

With the way Aaron Rodgers plays, every coach should want a piece of Green Bay’s offense. Even with Adams commanding a massive target share, Lazard could still emerge as WR3 in the long run fantasy.

Tim Patrick, Broncos

next	Listing	FOB
at LV	21%	$ 14

Patrick makes yet another appearance on this list as he’s still available in 79% of leagues.

This may have been due to the recent injury that kept him from competing in Week 8, but Patrick returned on Sunday. He may only have left with 29 yards in the game, but his peripheral numbers are much more encouraging.

The 26-year-old played 60 shots – just one less than Jerry Jeudy, who led the Broncos receiving corps. Patrick also saw nine targets that day. And he now has over 100 yards and / or a touchdown in four of his last five games.

Although the public has yet to recognize him, Patrick is a player who deserves to be in the fantastic lineups as WR3 / WR4.

Jalen Reagor, Eagles

next	Listing	FOB
in NYG	24%	$ 14

Reagor flies under the radar after spending most of the season in the reserve injured. The first-round pick returned to the field in Week 8 and even scored a touchdown. After a bye, it remains available in most leagues – this must change immediately.

Reagor was inserted into the roster as a nearly full-time player in the win over the Cowboys and saw six targets.

The Eagles’ schedule is attractive in the next leg (Giants, Browns, Seahawks), which sets Reagor up for a potential second half breakout.

Deebo Samuel, John Brown, Sterling Shepard, and Emmanuel Sanders are around the 60% mark and should be entered in almost all leagues.

Flexible options: Mecole Hardman on Bye (37% on list), Curtis Samuel vs VG (30% on list), Henry Ruggs vs DEN (42% on list), Nelson Agholor vs DEN (24% on list), Darnell Mooney against MIN (14% aligned), Jakobi Meyers against BAL (12% registered), Keelan Cole in UK (14% registered), Richie James in NO (2% registered)

Risky flex options: Breshad Perriman on Bye (7% registered), Chris Conley at GB (1% registered), Zach Pascal at TEN (4% registered), Marcus Johnson at TEN (1% registered), KJ Hamler at LV (2% registered), Danny Amendola vs WAS (2% in line), Randall Cobb at CLE (21% in line), Denzel Mims on Bye (6% in line), Rashard Higgins vs. HOU (24% enrolled)

Flexible dart throwing options: Marquez Valdes-Scantling v JAX (15% aligned), Michael Pittman Jr. at TEN (7% aligned), Tre’Quan Smith v SF (18% registered), Demarcus Robinson on Bye (2% registered), Damiere Byrd vs BAL (2% in line), David Moore at LAR (3% in line), Josh Reynolds vs SEA (2% in line), Jakeem Grant vs LAC (2% in line), Marvin Hall vs WAS (4% in line), Quintez Cephus vs WAS (1% registered)

Hidden injuries: Sammy Watkins on Bye (42% registered), Alshon Jeffery at NYG (10% registered)

Deep bench caches: Gabriel Davis at ARI (1% registered), Auden Tate at PIT (1% registered), Dez Bryant at NE (28% registered), Olamide Zaccheaus at Bye (0% registered), Cam Sims at DET (0% registered), Austin Mack vs. PHI (0% registered)

Tight ends

Austin Hooper, Browns

next	Listing	FOB
against HOU	40%	$ 9

Before an appendectomy sidelined him for two weeks, Hooper’s target share was increasing in the Browns offense.

Hooper saw seven targets at Week 4, 10 at Week 5 and six at Week 6 – delivering at least 50 yards and / or one touchdown in all three competitions.

Now it comes back to an attack that has lost Odell Beckham Jr. for the season, which should secure Hooper’s volume for the rest of the time.

If you’re struggling with a tight end, Hooper is one of the top 10 options that’s just over 60% of the override wires waiting to be retrieved.

Irv Smith Jr., Vikings

next	Listing	FOB
at CHI	seven%	$ 1

Smith has finished in the top 12 fantastic tight ends in three of his last four outings, including a two touchdown performance on Sunday.

Even in his worst game during that time, Smith’s snap count and routes remained high.

While we still have to be careful not to trust him as a starter every week in the low volume Vikings attack, the second is a quality streamer with a TE1 cap.

Dallas goedert sits around the 60% mark and should be listed in almost all leagues.

Streamer options: Jimmy Graham vs MIN (49% in line), Jordan Reed at NO (23% in line), Trey Burton at TEN (23% in line)

Risky streamer options: Logan Thomas at DET (37% registered), Tyler Higbee versus SEA (54% registered), Gerald Everett versus SEA (4% registered), Jordan Akins at CLE (4% registered), Ross Dwelley at NO (8% registered)) , Mo-Alie Cox at TEN (2% enrolled)
