Fantasy Football Week 10: Bold Predictions and Last-Minute Pickups

Jaxson Dart (QB, NYG) as QB1:: Justin Boone predicts Dart will finish as the top QB in Week 10 due to a favorable matchup against the Bears, who struggle against mobile quarterbacks. Why this matters: Dart's rushing ability and the Bears' defensive vulnerabilities make him a high-upside play.

Emeka Egbuka (WR, TB) as WR1:: Matt Harmon expects Egbuka to return to dominant form after a bye week and playing through a hamstring injury. Why this matters: With no Chris Godwin Jr. to compete with, Egbuka should see plenty of targets against the Patriots' pass-funnel defense.

Sam LaPorta (TE, DET) Outperforming All TEs:: Scott Pianowski highlights LaPorta's recent form and a great matchup against Washington, who have struggled against tight ends. Why this matters: LaPorta is in a prime position to exploit a weak defense and deliver a top-scoring performance.

Kyle Pitts Sr. (TE, ATL) as Top-5 TE:: Ray Garvin notes the Colts' vulnerability to tight ends and expects Pitts to capitalize on increased targets. Why this matters: Pitts' high usage and the Colts' defensive struggles make him a strong candidate for a breakout game.

Jaylin Lane (WR, WAS) as Top-24 WR:: Chris Allen anticipates a strong performance from Lane due to injuries to Terry McLaurin and Luke McCaffrey, leading to increased targets. Why this matters: Lane's opportunity in the absence of key receivers makes him a valuable play.

Michael Pittman Jr. (WR, IND) Disappointment:: Joel Smyth predicts Pittman will have a single-digit performance due to a tough matchup against the Falcons' pass defense and A.J. Terrell. Why this matters: Even consistent performers can have tough matchups, making Pittman a risky start.

Last-Minute Pickups:: Matt Bowen from ESPN suggests J.J. McCarthy, Jacoby Brissett, and Sam Darnold as QB options, Colston Loveland and Luke Musgrave as TE options, Olamide Zaccheaus, Darius Slayton, and Alec Pierce as WR options and Devin Singletary and Isaiah Davis as RB options. The Carolina Panthers D/ST is also a recommended pickup.
