Mark Andrews (BAL)

Week 10 Consensus Proj. = TE14, 9.40 PPR

  • Mark Andrews has shown significant variability in performance across Lamar Jackson's five starts this season, with finishes ranging from TE2 to TE55, indicating an inconsistent but potentially high-ceiling tight end for fantasy managers.

  • Andrews demonstrates strong connection with Lamar Jackson in scoring situations, recording 4 touchdown receptions, 4 end-zone targets, and averaging 3.4 receptions and 30 receiving yards per game in Jackson's starts this season.

  • The article predicts Andrews will excel against the Vikings due to their high blitz rate (40.6%), highlighting his effectiveness against blitzes with a 18.8% target share, 0.24 targets per route run, and two receiving touchdowns in Jackson's starts this year.

  • Our take: As an Andrews owner, the thought of trusting him in my starting lineup makes my stomach turn, but this article makes some interesting points.

Kenneth Walker III (SEA)

Week 10 Consensus Proj. = RB22, 11.50 PPR

  • Walker has been a disappointment this season, averaging only 59.0 rushing yards per game and splitting time with Zach Charbonnet. However, the Seahawks' recent trade for Rashid Shaheed could open up more running room for Walker by providing a big-play threat that can stretch the defense.

  • The Cardinals' defensive weakness against the run (ranking 20th in yards per carry allowed) sets up a favorable matchup for Walker in Week 10. The Seahawks are six-point home favorites, which suggests a positive game script that could lead to increased rushing volume.

  • Walker has previously shown the ability to break out, having eclipsed 100 yards earlier this season in Week 2 against the Steelers with 105 yards on just 13 carries. The article predicts Walker could rush for over 100 yards in this upcoming game against the Cardinals.

  • Our take: Walker had 19 carries for 81 yards in Week 4 against ARI so there’s some room for optimism here despite his recent duds.

Sam LaPorta (DET)

Week 10 Consensus Proj. = TE4, 12.60 PPR

  • LaPorta is in excellent form, having scored three touchdowns in four games and coming off a strong performance of 6-97-1 against the Vikings. The tight end is predicted to outscore all other tight ends in Week 10.

  • The Lions have a high team total of 29.5 points for the upcoming game, suggesting a potent offensive performance. LaPorta is expected to be a key driver of the team's offensive success against the Washington defense.

  • Washington's defense has been particularly vulnerable to tight ends recently, with multiple tight ends finding success against them. Travis Kelce and Jake Ferguson have both had significant games, making LaPorta an attractive fantasy option this week.

  • Our take: You’re probably starting him no matter what, but this seems like the definition of a SMASH spot. Also, WAS being vulnerable against the TE is a good note to file away for future matchups.

Jaylin Lane (WAS)

Week 10 Consensus Proj. = WR62, 6.17 PPR

  • Jaylin Lane is positioned as a sneaky deep league dart throw, with last week's performance showing a 57.1% route participation rate, 60% slot rate, and 5 targets resulting in 3 receptions for 29 yards.

  • With Terry McLaurin likely missing and Jayden Daniels out with a serious elbow injury, Lane has an opportunity for increased playing time in a favorable matchup against the Lions, who have a high slot target share allowed.

  • The article predicts Lane will outscore Deebo Samuel this week, citing his promising metrics against man coverage (0.22 targets per route run, 2.46 YPRR) and the Lions' vulnerability to slot receivers.

  • Our take: If you’re desperate enough to be considering Lane for your starting lineup this week, these are the types of insights you need to be taking shots on.

Jauan Jennings (SF)

Week 10 Consensus Proj. = WR33, 10.70 PPR

  • Jennings has recently become more prominent in the 49ers' offense, leading the wide receivers with a 24+% target share. Despite limited passing attempts in recent games, he has shown potential for bigger performances.

  • The upcoming game against the Rams is projected to be a high-scoring affair with a 49.5-point total, creating a favorable game environment for Jennings. The Rams are only four-point favorites, suggesting a potentially competitive game that could lead to increased passing.

  • Jennings has a historical connection to strong performances against the Rams, having previously recorded 175 yards and three touchdowns against this defense. The article predicts Jennings could be an upside WR3 with potential to reach 100+ receiving yards in this matchup.

  • Our take: Mac Jones will be the starting QB for this game, which probably makes it more likely they’ll be down and throwing. If Mac ends up throwing ~40 times, Jauan could end up with 8-10 targets.

That’s all for today!

See ya pizza,
