Week 10 Fantasy Football Outlooks
Below are some fantasy football outlooks written by our NFL team here at RotoBaller, bringing you their fantasy football analysis and advice on which players to consider starting in Week 10:
Brenton Strange, Jacksonville Jaguars
Jacksonville Jaguars tight end Brenton Strange played 44 of 56 offensive snaps against the Baltimore Ravens in Week 9, but Trevor Lawrence looked his way just twice on 26 pass attempts. Four days earlier, he saw two targets on 28 snaps against the Indianapolis Colts, when Lawrence threw only 14 passes in a blowout. A 46-yard catch accounted for most of Strange's 55 yards against Indianapolis, and he finished with 22 yards on two receptions in Baltimore.
Strange is a fringe starter in 12-team PPR leagues for Sunday's visit to the Tennessee Titans. Before Jacksonville's bye, Strange drew seven targets against the Houston Texans and eight apiece against the Cincinnati Bengals and Philadelphia Eagles.
He caught 14 of 16 targets for 163 yards in those two games. All four of Strange's targets since the bye came outside the red zone. Nate Boerkircher drew three targets on 31 snaps in Baltimore and caught a 52-yard pass on Jacksonville's opening drive. Lawrence also looked for Boerkircher from the one-yard line on that drive, four days after the rookie caught a 31-yard touchdown against Indianapolis.
Hunter Henry, New England Patriots
New England Patriots tight end Hunter Henry (foot) was limited in practice all week but has been cleared to play in Week 10 on Sunday in Munich, Germany, against the Detroit Lions. Henry played through the foot injury in the Week 9 loss to the Green Bay Packers on Sunday, but he played just 49% of the offensive snaps and caught all three of his targets for 35 yards.
In Week 8 against the Miami Dolphins, he played just 13% of the snaps and caught all three of his targets for 30 yards before leaving with his foot injury. Another week removed from the injury, fantasy managers are hoping that the veteran tight end will see the field more in a plus matchup against Detroit.
Henry could have more competition for targets from quarterback Drake Maye if receiver A.J. Brown (knee, ankle) returns from a two-game absence, but he should still be considered on the TE1 radar this weekend. RotoBaller has Henry ranked as the No. 9 player at his position for the week. In his 11th year in the NFL, Henry currently has 32 receptions on 37 targets for 361 yards and two touchdowns in nine games played for New England.
Tucker Kraft, Green Bay Packers
Green Bay tight end Tucker Kraft remains a fantasy football starting option, but he's not as confident an option after a really poor showing in Week 9. He managed just one catch for one yard across three targets against the Patriots. What was even more alarming is that the Packers scored 45 points and racked up 478 yards as an offense.
Kraft has fallen behind Christian Watson and Matthew Golden in the pass-catching hierarchy, and Savion Williams has also been more productive of late, which is more competition for Kraft. Tight end is a tough fantasy position to find consistency at, so that's why Kraft remains a starting option in all leagues, but he's going to fall back to being just a deep-league option if his production doesn't improve soon.
Darren Waller, Carolina Panthers
Carolina Panthers tight end Darren Waller has been inconsistent week over week this season, but his performance this past Sunday against the Denver Broncos could be enough to justify adding him off waivers in most leagues. Waller exploded for eight catches on 10 targets Sunday, adding 90 yards and one touchdown along the way. Carolina found itself playing behind and relying on passing attempts -- often to Waller and Tetairoa McMillan -- to keep them in the game.
The veteran's inconsistency this year does prevent him from having immediate TE1 status in fantasy football, but he's absolutely trending in the right direction. Plus, Carolina has tough matchups coming up against the Saints, Ravens, Buccaneers, and Vikings, creating some potential negative game script environments in which the Panthers could look to throw the ball early and often.
Managers should consider adding Waller off waivers, especially in deeper leagues or scenarios where managers may need a quick bye week fill-in.
