Jeff Wilson is a good flex option according to Eric Moody. There is a time and a place.

There's more to the Green Bay Packers troubles than their 3-6 record and their lowest scoring season in 22 years. Fantasy managers will be negatively impacted by their injuries. Three people were injured against the Detroit Lions. The Packers are about to play two games in 10 days.

His foot was in a boot after the game. He may have to be placed on IR because of his ankle injury, which could take up to a week to heal. The player was evaluated for a concussion. After catching four of 10 targets for 87 yards and a touchdown on Sunday, Allen Lazard could easily see double-digit targets against the Dallas Cowboys in Week 10. In deeper formats, Sammy Watkins should be considered.

Jones is a concern to fantasy managers. He was wearing a boot on his left foot. The tests on Jones' ankle were negative. If Jones misses time, there is a chance that he will become an RB2 in fantasy. He is already on the roster in 72.3% of the league.

You can join a Fantasy Basketball league and draft your team before the first game starts. Your league starts with a clean slate.

You can sign up for nothing.

If Jones does have to sit, there are other options you can consider.

Wilson had 72 total yards and a touchdown on 12 touches against the Bears in the Dolphins' victory. Wilson played 28 snaps in his first game with the Dolphins compared to 26 for Mostert. Wilson had more touches than Mostert. Last week, I mentioned that Wilson was familiar with the running scheme of the Dolphins. He can be seen as a high-end flex in the future.

Although he is doubtful for Monday night's game against the Saints and the Ravens have a bye, you should still keep him on your fantasy football roster. He made his return from an injury in Week 7. He scored two touchdown and ran for 66 yards. The Carolina defense gave up over 200 yards and five touchdown to Joe Mixon on only 26 touches.

Isiah Pacheco started his second game in a row, but he disappeared in the second half after the Chiefs stopped running. Pacheco played on more than one snap. Over the last four games,Edwards-Helaire has averaged just 8.0 touches and 5.4 fantasy points. Kansas City's running game will get a lot of favorable game script in the rest of the season because the Chiefs have a very favorable schedule. That is good news for Pacheco.

It is possible that Jaylen Warren will be featured more after the bye week. If head coach Mike Tomlin follows through with this plan, Warren is worth a look. The league average for total yards per game is 298.0. Warren had a season high in total yards in Week 8. He has an average of 5.8 yards per touch.

Now that the Broncos have acquired him from the Dolphins, fantasy managers should consider adding him. The role Chuba Hubbard could fill is that of D'Onta Foreman. Since Austin Ekeler is only touching the ball 19 times per game, those in deeper formats should put him in their lineup. The rookies has become the second running back in the team.

Let's take a look at our recommended Week 10 fantasy picks.

Quarterbacks

Last week, I told fantasy managers to pick up Fields, and he scored 42.7 fantasy points. Fields was the first Bears player to have at least 100 rushing yards and two passing touchdown in a game in 25 years. Fields has averaged 22.9 fantasy points over the last six games. Detroit's defense surrenders the most yards per game in the league and he will have an excellent match up against them.

As of late, Justin Fields is proving to be a lock at quarterback.

Before the Giants' Week 9 bye, Daniel Jones had only 9.1 fantasy points. Through the first seven weeks of the season, he had averaged 17.0 fantasy points per game, including a season-high 28.7 against the Jags. Jones has a high fantasy ceiling because he is a dual threat quarterback. Jones will get a high floor after the Giants face the Texans, Lions, Cowboys and Commanders. He is seen as a high-end QB2 with upside.

Jimmy Garoppolo will be a popular streamer in Week 10, especially with both Lamar Jackson and Joe Burrow on their bye. He has scored at least 16 fantasy points in all but one game this year. Garoppolo is well positioned for success because he is a part of the 49ers offense that includes George Kittle.

Russell Wilson should be considered a QB2 for the game against theTitans. He is coming off a bye and could be in better shape for the Tennessee game. The worst streaming option is not the one who averages 15.8 fantasy points per game. The Bears defense gave up 24 fantasy points to Tua Tagovailoa. If Baker is named the starter against the Falcons on Thursday, he should be considered as well.

Wide receivers

Week 9 rankings are included in the daily notes.

Michael Thomas will be out of commission for the remainder of the season, so he should see a steady stream of targets when he comes back. He hasn't played since the Saints' Week 4 game against the Vikings, so we will need to see how he meshes with the rest of the team. The Saints' passing game has been badly affected by the play of Tre'Quan Smith and Marquez Callaway.

Peoples- Jones should not be overlooked by fantasy managers. He's scored double-digit fantasy points in four of the last five games. Peoples- Jones has averaged 69.0 receiving yards per game. Peoples-Jones' ceiling could be even higher since Deshaun is expected to start immediately after his suspension. The Dolphins' defense is allowing the 10th-most passing yards per game and will be facing the Browns after theirbye.

In the last two games, Terrace Marshall has had 50 or more receiving yards. He played on the same number of snaps as DJ Moore and had the same number of routes run and targets. Marshall is poised for his third consecutive game with double-digit fantasy points against a Falcons secondary that has allowed the most passing yards per game.

DJ Moore came back to earth with his Week 9 performance.

With Kadarius Toney no longer on the team, Slayton's target share should continue for the rest of the season. Slayton has scored double-digit fantasy points in three of his last four games, with a total of 22 targets. He and Wan' Dale Robinson could be great assets for fantasy managers.

Odell Beckham Jr. made a quick hit. The field could be taken by the end of the week. The veteran receiver is rumored to be a target for many teams. It's time to pick him up. Duvernay is one of the top players at his position for the Ravens, but he will not be able to play this season because of a foot injury. Jahan Dotson will be back from his injury in Week 10. In the first four weeks of the year, Dotson scored 13+ fantasy points in three out of four games. He had a lot of targets. There has been no other wide receiver who has stepped up. Now is the time for him to come back. Gallup had a season-high 49 receiving yards. He reached 3,000 receiving yards before his 60th game.

Tight ends

Mark Andrews is questionable to play against the Saints. Likely caught 6 of 7 targets for 77 yards. Tonight he could do that again. The Ravens could incorporate Likely further into their offense during their upcoming bye in order to replace the contributions of Rashod Bateman in the passing game. In deeper formats, he's worth a lot of money.

Prior to the bye, Greg Dulcich led the Broncos in receiving yards with 87 against the Jags. He was second on the team in seeing targets. In the last three games, Dulcich has scored double-digit fantasy points and can be considered a tight end.

The improved play of Fields has finally paid off for Kmet, who scored a season-high 22 fantasy points on Sunday against the Dolphins. He ran 30 routes. Kmet will be in the spotlight against the Lions. Over the last two games, he has three touchdown catches.

Otton is coming off his best fantasy performance of the year. He ran the same number of routes. After Cameron Brate returns from his neck injury, Otton may continue to start. Otton was a big part of the winning drive. There is a football game this week in Germany.
