Week 10 Fantasy Football Rankings: Biggest Point Producers at Every Position

Another week, another edition of The Biggest Point Producers at Every Position.

I know you all have been losing sleep since my last post, waking up in cold sweats, saying, "Who's going to be the biggest point producer at every position?! I don't know!"

But, rest assured, I've got you all covered.

The biggest point producers at their respective positions in Week 9 were: quarterback Aaron Rodgers, running back Willis McGahee, receiver Vincent Jackson, tight end Rob Gronkowski and kicker David Akers.

If you have the following guys on your fantasy football team in Week 10, you are a lucky individual.

QB: Aaron Rodgers, Green Bay Packers

Yeah, I know, I'm really going out on a limb here, right?

Nonetheless, it's hard to ignore Aaron Rodgers in Week 10. He's averaging the most points at his position in 2011 and just racked up the most points in all of fantasy football in Week 9.

On top of that, he's facing a Minnesota Vikings defense that is giving up 273.6 passing yards per game and 14 passing touchdowns, allowing Carolina Panthers rookie Cam Newton to throw for 290 yards and three touchdowns in Week 8.

The Vikings are giving up the seventh-most fantasy points to quarterbacks.

RB: Arian Foster, Houston Texans

Arian Foster is averaging the second-most fantasy points among running backs this season and scored the second-most fantasy points among running backs in Week 9.

After early-season struggles further complicated by a hamstring injury, Foster has been red-hot lately and is once again looking like the player who scored the most points in fantasy football last season.

Foster faces the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 10, a team allowing 4.9 yards per carry and eight rushing touchdowns this season. The Bucs have given up the fifth-most fantasy points to running backs this season.

Like Rodgers, a no-brainer.

WR: Greg Jennings, Green Bay Packers

Greg Jennings is averaging the fifth-most fantasy points among receivers this season and fourth-most among receivers in the last four weeks.

He's among the league leaders in touchdown catches, receptions and receiving yards.

He is coming off a sub-par performance by his standards (46 receiving yards, one TD), but he faces a Vikings defense allowing the seventh-most fantasy points to receivers this season.

Jennings is gonna score, and score big.

TE: Jason Witten, Dallas Cowboys

Lost amid quarterback Tony Romo's struggles has been the fact that Jason Witten continues to produce at an elite level, on the field and in fantasy football.

Witten is just two receptions away from passing Hall of Famer Ozzie Newsome for third place in receptions for tight ends all time.

He's averaging the fourth-most fantasy points among tight ends this season. And he's facing a Buffalo Bills defense in Week 10 that is allowing the 10th-most fantasy points among tight ends this season.

Did I mention Witten went for 71 yards and a score in Week 9?

K: David Akers, San Francisco 49ers

It's hard to bet against David Akers right now.

He's 19-of-21 in field goal attempts, has hit all four of his attempts from 50-yards-plus, and the 49ers don't have the offense that continually scores touchdowns once in the red zone (that's a good thing, a field goal is worth more than an extra point).

I expect the New York Giants to cause problems for 49ers quarterback Alex Smith after frustrating Tom Brady in Week 9 and for the 49ers to lose a close affair, by no fault of Akers.
