Heading into Week 10 of the season, the NFL slate is as good as it gets with bye weeks still present. Last week was an average week. Our all-in status on Joe Burrow paid off as did Dalton Kincaid, who you will see again in this list. We also had some ice cold players like Chuba Hubbard and Ja’Marr Chase, two players we thought would explode but didn’t. This week we are back and with another optimal lineup.

QB: Dak Prescott – Dallas Cowboys – $6,700
Dak Prescott has officially broken out this season. He is heading into this week with three straight games over 25+ fantasy points and has had 35+ points in each of the two games since his bye week. Despite a decent passing defense from the New York Giants, he should be in for another great performance.
RB: Breece Hall – New York Jets – $6,700
Breece Hall was a player that was featured last week in our lineup as well. Expect Hall to continue his 20+ point streak into a week with a low ranking rush defense. The Jets played from behind most of the game, leading to a higher passing attack. This week should be different. Las Vegas has a rough rushing defense.
RB: Rachaad White – Tampa Bay Buccaneers – $5,800
For the first time this season, Tampa Bay really fed Rachaad White and it paid off. He ran 20 times for 73 yards and two touchdowns. With a taste of what White can do, expect Tampa Bay to continue to lean on the young rusher and attack defenses.
WR: CeeDee Lamb – Dallas Cowboys – $8,500
I tried to pair a top quarterback with a top receiver last week and I lost the gamble. Joe Burrow performed, but Ja’Marr Chase did not. This week, I am going back to the same strategy with Prescott and CeeDee Lamb. In the two games that Prescott scored over 35+ points since the bye week, Lamb has had 41 and 28 points in those weeks. He has seen 30 targets with 23 receptions for 349 yards and two touchdowns in two weeks.
WR: Calvin Ridley – Jacksonville Jaguars – $5,600
Calvin Ridley has been incosistent at best this season. He has had 25+ point games and games where he totals under two fantasy points. Trevor Lawrence is finding a way to win football games despite not putting up good fantasy numbers. The key to playing a guy like Ridley is projecting his high games correctly and that is what I am doing here. Coming off of a bye week fresh and rested, he is primed for a big performance.
WR: Jaxon Smith-Njigba – Seattle Seahawks – $4,100
The rookie receiver has finally found his footing with the Seahawks offense and quarterback Geno Smith. After not totaling a double digit fantasy game in the first six weeks of the season, he is now had three of them in a row against defenses that are not bad against the pass. He will get a weak passing defense in this matchup with the Washington Commanders and could exploit the matchup for a career game.
TE: Dalton Kincaid – Buffalo Bills – $4,300
Ever since the injury to Dawson Knox, Dalton Kincaid has been a staple on the Buffalo Bills offense. He has totaled over 15 points in each of those games, seeing anywhere between 7 to 11 targets per game with 8 to 10 receptions for over 60 yards and the first touchdown of his NFL career. He will head into a matchup with Denver that has proven beneficial for opposing tight ends.
FLEX: Javonte Williams – Denver Broncos – $5,300
The Denver Broncos offense has been putrid this season. However, it seems that in the last two week, Javonte Williams is starting to get the work he needs. Until two weeks ago, Williams hadn’t seen over 20 carries and only topped 50 yards three times. Last game, with 27 touches, he was able to go for 85 yards and a receiving touchdown. Coming off of a bye week, he could be in for a big workload again.
DEF: New York Jets – $3,000
The Jets have been playing some tough offenses this season and keeping up despite being on the field more than they anticipated. On the road against a weak opponent, Sauce Gardner and company should put up another 10+ point game which is what you want out of a defense that isn’t worth the most possible money.
