NFL Predictions Week 10: Final Odds Projections and Fantasy Stars to Watch

While an NFL game is always entertaining to watch as a fan of the sport or a specific team, having a little money on the line only increases the intensity. The same can be said for fantasy enthusiasts needing a certain amount of points from a player in action to ensure a victory for the week.

Fantasy Analysis

This is a matchup in which stats are deceiving. Simply looking at the Bills' overall track record against tight ends this season would make most think Kelce was in for a rough day. After all, Buffalo is only allowing an average of 5.9 fantasy points to opposing tight ends this season.

Well, after looking at Buffalo's individual games, the team is far less scary from a fantasy standpoint. The Bills haven't played many of the league's more athletic tight ends this season; however, in the games they did, they gave up some major points.

Here's a look at what three pass-catching tight ends did against Buffalo this year:

Week	Player	Rec	Yds	TD
1	Martellus Bennett	8	70	1
3	Ladarius Green	4	64	0
6	Rob Gronkowski	7	94	0

Kelce has emerged as another great weapon at the tight end position this season. His speed allows him to pick up chunks of yards after the catch, and his 6'5", 260-pound frame makes him a force in the red zone. Through eight games this season, he's accumulated 32 receptions for 419 yards and four touchdowns.

This tight end is the top receiving weapon on Kansas City's roster right now. Fantasy owners should expect him to be utilized as such against the Bills on Sunday.

After seeing Sanders' name, most fantasy owners are probably wondering why he's listed instead of Demaryius Thomas. It's a good question.

The Raiders have been very good against opposing wide receivers this season. The team has allowed an average of just 16.8 fantasy points per game to the position, which is seventh-fewest in the NFL. This team has been great at clamping down on No. 1 wide receivers, forcing production to come from elsewhere.

Over the last three weeks, Oakland held Larry Fitzgerald to 21 yards on four receptions, Andrew Hawkins to 88 yards and a score on seven receptions and Doug Baldwin to 38 yards on five receptions.

Sure, Thomas is a physical specimen, and he still has a great chance of putting up nice numbers. Although, with the Raiders defense likely rolling to his side of the field, the speedy Sanders will see more opportunities for big plays. Broncos executive Patrick Smyth tweeted a stat that sums up Sanders' quick production in Denver:

Expect this prolific wide receiver to add to that statistic in Week 10.

Russell Wilson, QB, Seattle Seahawks vs. New York Giants

For some reason, the Seahawks offense has been geared more toward the pass recently, taking the ball out of the hands of running back Marshawn Lynch and putting it into the hands of Wilson. While it's a curious strategy, the quarterback's fantasy owners are delighted.

Over the team's last three games, Wilson has attempted at least 32 passes and six rushes. That gives him plenty of opportunities to produce fantasy points. He has a favorable matchup against the Giants secondary on Sunday. New York is averaging 17.0 fantasy points per game to opposing quarterbacks and have given up seven passing touchdowns over its last two games.

Wilson didn't produce gaudy fantasy numbers against the Raiders in Week 9; however, that shouldn't deter fantasy owners from starting him in Week 10. Oakland has been very good against the pass this season, and Wilson's favorite target, Doug Baldwin, was hampered with a groin injury.

Good news for the quarterback is his wide receiver is healthy and ready to go once again this week, according to John Boyle of the Everett Herald:

The combination of increased passing attempts, a favorable matchup and the team's top receiver at Wilson's disposal should ensure the quarterback will produce a top-notch fantasy performance.
