Looking for fantasy football sit-and-start advice for Week 10? Keep in mind that these recommendations are relative and league-dependent. Also, note that some players are targeted for DFS. Good luck with your lineups this week!
Start: Michael Pittman Jr., Rhamondre Stevenson
Michael Pittman Jr. has seen increased usage with Josh Downs’ injury, and his targets per route run have jumped to 30.8% with Downs off the field. He is looking at more opportunities against a Patriots defense that uses coverage at the league’s second-highest rate. Pittman is a top-10 WR this week.
Rhamondre Stevenson is a fine start against a Colts defense allowing the fifth-most fantasy points to running backs. He remains involved as a receiver and has had success in target share over the last month.
Sit: Deshaun Watson, Zay Flowers
Deshaun Watson faces a tough matchup on the road against a Ravens defense ceding the fewest fantasy points to quarterbacks this season. Zay Flowers has just one touchdown this season and faces competition from Odell Beckham Jr. The Browns also use man coverage at the league’s highest rate.
Start: Tank Dell
Start in DFS: Joe Mixon
With Nico Collins downgraded to a DNP in Thursday’s practice, there’s a real chance he misses or is limited during Sunday’s game. Tank Dell should see plenty of targets against a Bengals defense that uses man coverage at the league’s 11th-highest rate. Joe Mixon could be extra busy due to injuries to other key players and is undervalued with a favorable matchup this week.
Start: Christian Kirk
Start in DFS: Chris Olave
Start: Joshua Dobbs
Christian Kirk should be busy against the San Francisco 49ers this week, while Chris Olave is set up for a bunch of targets against a tough Minnesota defense. Joshua Dobbs has produced four top-eight fantasy weeks this season and can be started if needed.
Start: Aaron Jones, Diontae Johnson
Start in DFS: DeAndre Hopkins, Rachaad White
Aaron Jones is expected to see another 20+ touches against a Steelers defense that has yielded the seventh-most fantasy points to running backs. Diontae Johnson has been one of the best receivers this season and has a favorable matchup this week.
Looking for a strong DFS option? Consider DeAndre Hopkins, who has the fourth-lowest catchable target rate this season. Rachaad White led all backs in snap rate and fantasy points last week and faces a viable matchup this week.
Start: Drake London, Marquise Brown
Drake London should be back from his groin injury this week and faces a favorable matchup against a Cardinals defense that has allowed the second-most fantasy points to his side. Marquise Brown ranks top 12 in air yards and targets and will benefit from Kyler Murray’s return from knee surgery.
