Fantasy Football Week 10 Rankings: Updated Overview for All Positions

It's hard to believe that Week 10 of the 2017 NFL season is already here. It's even harder to believe that the playoffs begin in just a matter of weeks. 

No, not the NFL playoffs—the way-more-important fantasy football playoffs.

The clock is officially ticking for many fantasy owners who are struggling to find confidence in their starting lineup as their bench continues to outperform it. But now is not the time to dwell on past errors.

Instead, it's time to turn things around for the sake of your team. 

Here, we'll try to make things easy for you as we look at the top 10 offensive players for Week 10, including an analysis of the must-start play of the week for each position.

2. Dak Prescott (Dallas Cowboys) vs. Atlanta Falcons

3. Russell Wilson (Seattle Seahawks) vs. Arizona Cardinals

4. Cam Newton (Carolina Panthers) vs. Miami Dolphins

5. Drew Brees (New Orleans Saints) vs. Buffalo Bills

6. Jared Goff (Los Angeles Rams) vs. Houston Texans

7. Ben Roethlisberger (Pittsburgh Steelers) vs. Indianapolis Colts 

8. Matt Ryan (Atlanta Falcons) vs. Dallas Cowboys

9. Matthew Stafford (Detroit Lions) vs. Cleveland Browns

10. Marcus Mariota (Tennessee Titans) vs. Cincinnati Bengals

Must-start: Jared Goff (Los Angeles Rams) vs. Houston Texans

Watch out, fantasy owners. There's a new top option at quarterback in the NFL.

Rams quarterback Jared Goff has been on a tear this season, leading his team to an impressive 6-2 record while racking up the stats. In Week 9, Goff threw for 311 yards, four touchdowns and zero interceptions against the New York Giants.

Not too shabby for a guy who's only playing his second season in the league. 

Projected to score 18.13 points in standard Yahoo leagues in Week 10 against a Houston Texans defense that has been struggling, Goff has to be considered one of the top signal-callers this week. Move over, Philip Rivers. The best quarterback in California is Goff.

2. Julio Jones (Atlanta Falcons) vs. Dallas Cowboys

3. A.J. Green (Cincinnati Bengals) vs. Tennessee Titans

4. Doug Baldwin (Seattle Seahawks) vs. Arizona Cardinals 

5. Michael Thomas (New Orleans Saints) vs. Buffalo Bills 

6. Brandin Cooks (New England Patriots) vs. Denver Broncos

7. DeAndre Hopkins (Houston Texans) vs. Los Angeles Rams

8. Stefon Diggs (Minnesota Vikings) vs. Washington Redskins

9. Golden Tate (Detroit Lions) vs. Cleveland Browns 

10. Adam Thielen (Minnesota Vikings) vs. Washington Redskins

Must-start: Doug Baldwin (Seattle Seahawks) vs. Arizona Cardinals

We already know about the Antonio Browns and the Julio Joneses of the world, so there's no point wasting your time saying how they are "locks" in Week 10, as they are both must-start players week in, week out.

But one name that should be in that conversation hasn't been getting the respect he deserves. Seahawks wideout Doug Baldwin is one of the best receivers in football and has been for quite some time. And coming off one of his strongest games of the season in Week 9, he should be given the No. 1 wideout treatment on your team.

Baldwin hauled in 108 yards on seven receptions and a touchdown against the Washington Redskins last weekend for his second 100-yard performance of the season.

Additionally, Baldwin worked Washington cornerback Josh Norman last week and will look to do the same against Patrick Peterson and the Cardinals defense, which surrenders the fourth-most fantasy points to opposing wideouts.

2. Todd Gurley II (Los Angeles Rams) vs. Houston Texans 

3. LeSean McCoy (Buffalo Bills) vs. New Orleans Saints

4. Leonard Fournette (Jacksonville Jaguars) vs. Los Angeles Chargers

5. Melvin Gordon (Los Angeles Chargers) vs. Jacksonville Jaguars 

6. Jordan Howard (Chicago Bears) vs. Green Bay Packers

7. Mark Ingram/Alvin Kamara (New Orleans Saints) vs. Buffalo Bills

8. Adrian Peterson (Arizona Cardinals) vs. Seattle Seahawks

9. Carlos Hyde (San Francisco 49ers) vs. New York Giants 

10. Jerick McKinnon (Minnesota Vikings) vs. Washington Redskins

Must-start: Mark Ingram/Alvin Kamara (New Orleans Saints) vs. Buffalo Bills

This one is a little unique for a couple of reasons.

For one, both running backs play for the Saints and both get a reasonable amount of touches (carries, receptions) each game to stay relevant in fantasy. And secondly, both are really good.

Ingram has been taken the lion's share of carries for the Saints since Adrian Peterson left town, while Kamara has become a go-to option for the Saints' passing offense.

Ingram has carried the rock at least 16 times over the past four weeks, including two games in which he had 22 and 25 carries. While he has had some recent fumbling issues, Ingram wasn't punished by his coaches and sent to the doghouse. It's safe to assume that he'll still be on track to receive the bulk of touches in the run game. Adam Levitan of Fantasy Labs tweeted:

In the passing game, Kamara has shined out of the backfield, hauling in 37 receptions this season, including 17 catches over the past four weeks.

If you have both players on your roster, it wouldn't be a crazy idea to play Ingram as a running back while plugging Kamara in as your flex. And even if you only have one or the other, both are still guaranteed to get their touches in one of the NFL's most explosive offenses.

Week 10 Tight Ends

1. Rob Gronkowski (New England Patriots) vs. Denver Broncos

2. Evan Engram (New York Giants) vs. San Francisco 49ers

3. Jimmy Graham (Seattle Seahawks) vs. Arizona Cardinals 

4. Delanie Walker (Tennessee Titans) vs. Cincinnati Bengals 

5. Austin Seferian-Jenkins (New York Jets) vs. Tampa Bay Buccaneers

6. Kyle Rudolph (Minnesota Vikings) vs. Washington Redskins 

7. Cameron Brate (Tampa Bay Buccaneers) vs. New York Jets 

8. Vernon Davis (Washington Redskins) vs. Minnesota Vikings

9. Jack Doyle (Indianapolis Colts) vs. Pittsburgh Steelers

10. Austin Hooper (Atlanta Falcons) vs. Dallas Cowboys

Must-start: Jimmy Graham (Seattle Seahawks) vs. Arizona Cardinals

Are we witnessing the return of Jimmy Graham as one of the most dominant tight ends in fantasy football? Maybe. Maybe not.

Even if Graham never gets back to posting the numbers he had in New Orleans, he's still been terrific for the Seahawks in recent weeks after a slow start to the season, hauling in four touchdown receptions in his past four games.

In Week 8, Graham found the end zone twice. In Week 9, he was held without a touchdown but still managed to grab five receptions for 59 yards, a solid outing that any fantasy owner would be pleased with at this stage of the season.

Graham has scored in double digits in terms of fantasy points twice in the past three weeks and could be in line for another big game in Week 10 against the Cardinals. As long as Baldwin doesn't steal all of his targets, Graham should be able to put up solid numbers and coexist with Baldwin.
