Fantasy Football Week 10 Waiver Wire: Best Pickups At Every Position

Week 9 of the NFL season doesn’t end until Monday night, but it’s already time for fantasy football owners to start looking at the best waiver wire adds entering Week 10.

Whether you’re looking to add depth for a playoff run or stockpiling assets for next season, there’s something for you on the waiver wire this week.

Here are some of the best players to target.

Quarterback: Landry Jones, Pittsburgh Steelers
Steelers starting quarterback Ben Roethlisberger has suffered another injury, and it looks like Jones could the start in Week 10 against a Cleveland Browns defense that ranks 26th against the pass.

Jones actually played pretty well in relief of Roethlisberger on Sunday by leading the Steelers to victory over the Oakland Raiders with a late fourth-quarter comeback. He completed four of six pass attempts for 79 yards, including a 55-yard connection to No. 1 receiver Antonio Brown.

Jones is nowhere near Roethlisberger’s level, but he’s not a bad bye week replacement option for Week 10, and he’ll benefit from having highly skilled playmakers around him.

Other quarterbacks to add: Tyrod Taylor, Kirk Cousins

Running Back: Brandon Bolden, New England Patriots
Bolden could stand to gain a lot from Dion Lewis’ injury. Bolden replaced Lewis — who left Sunday’s game against the Washington Redskins with a knee injury — and scored his first touchdown of the season. He had one carry for 12 yards and three receptions for 27 yards and a score.

Entering Sunday, Bolden hadn’t received a carry or made a catch since Week 2, but he should receive a larger role in the Patriots offense (the highest-scoring unit in the league) if Lewis is out long-term. Bolden is able to gain tough yards on the ground with his impressive strength, and he’s also a good check-down target for Brady, making him a smart add in PPR leagues.

Other running backs to add: James Starks, Karlos Williams, Antonio Andrews, Taiwan Jones

Wide Receiver: Dorial Green-Beckham, Tennessee Titans
Fantasy owners have been waiting for a breakout performance from Green-Beckham, and it came Sunday against the New Orleans Saints. He caught five passes for 77 yards on 1o targets. All three were season highs.

The rookie receiver is not an easy cover at 6-foot-5 and 237 pounds, so it would be wise for the Titans to target him more, specifically in the red zone. With a new head coach, that just might happen.

Other receivers to add: Stevie Johnson, Kamar Aiken, Corey Brown, Brandon LaFell

Tight End: Richard Rodgers, Green Bay Packers
Rodgers received a season-high nine targets and tallied his first multi-touchdown game of the season in the Packers’ loss to the Carolina Panthers on Sunday.

The second-year tight end had five catches for just 19 yards, but it’s encouraging to see him getting so many targets from quarterback Aaron Rodgers. With five or more targets in four of the last five games, Rodgers is worth an add in deep leagues as a bye week replacement or a fill-in for an injured tight end.

Other tight ends to add: Austin Seferian-Jenkins
