Week 10 NFL DFS Picks - Top Value Plays, Sleepers & Stacking Tips (2025)

Jaxson Dart - Fantasy Football Rankings, Rookie QB Sleepers

RotoBaller's Week 10 NFL DFS value plays, sleeper picks, and tournament stacks for daily fantasy football on FanDuel, DraftKings, and Yahoo. Win big in DFS with our expert research and advice.

Use this tutorial for more details on how to use our NFL DFS Stacks of the Week. All other Premium Tools can be accessed on the Premium Dashboard.

This column provides a detailed analysis of three highly stackable games for Daily Fantasy Sports (DFS) contests in Week 10 of the 2025 season. I write this article every week for our RotoBaller NFL Premium subscribers, but this week I wanted to share it with everyone so you get a little glimpse of the way I break down my top game stacks.

In this article, I will highlight my three favorite Week 10 games to target and give the rationale for how I plan to attack each game. I hope this helps you when building those GPP lineups and filling out your player pool for Sunday's slate.

 

NFL DFS Stacks & Value Picks: Week 10 Guide

Teams on a Bye:

Cincinnati Bengals, Kansas City Chiefs, Dallas Cowboys, Tennessee Titans

Teams Playing Prime-Time Matchups:

Las Vegas Raiders, Denver Broncos, Atlanta Falcons, Indianapolis Colts, Pittsburgh Steelers, Philadelphia Eagles, LA Chargers, Green Bay Packers

 

Baltimore Ravens (3-5) vs Minnesota Vikings (4-4)

Current Spread: Ravens -4.5

Current Game Total: 48.5 (Opened 45.5)

The Ravens looked instantly revitalized in Week 9, defeating the Dolphins 28-6 thanks to Lamar Jackson's return from injury. Jackson was named AFC Offensive Player of the Week, compiling 218 all-purpose yards and throwing four touchdowns with a stellar 143.2 passer rating

QB Lamar Jackson (FanDuel $9,000): The Vikings' defense is generous to quarterbacks and running backs alike, yielding an average of 17 fantasy points per game to QBs and 17.7 fantasy points to RBs. Given Jackson's rushing ability, his expected Week 10 floor sits around 17 points, easily justifying his premium price point.

RB Derrick Henry ($8,400 FanDuel): Henry's inconsistency with Lamar out is over. With Lamar back, Henry returned to form in Week 9, rushing for 119 yards on 19 carries (6.3 yards per attempt). While the Vikings limited the Lions' talented backfield, the key number is the 17.7 fantasy points per game they surrender to RBs. Henry's floor now exceeds his season average of 13.94 fantasy points per game.

TE Isaiah Likely ($4,900 FanDuel): Likely is the best boom-or-bust value play in this entire matchup. In his first game of the 2025 season with Lamar, Likely secured 3 passes for 60 yards, including an explosive 35-yard gain on a crossing pattern. While Mark Andrews and Charlie Kolar saw the touchdown redzone, the Ravens utilize Likely in the slot, making him a true receiving threat. The quick chemistry he showed with his QB makes him a cheap, high-upside option, especially given the Ravens' lack of other reliable pass-catchers outside of Zay Flowers. Likely has a very low floor but could end up booming here in Week 10.

WR Zay Flowers ($7,100 FanDuel): Flowers is the team's most explosive pass-catcher, but the Vikings' defense has been surprisingly tough against WR units, ranking 9th best in the NFL by giving up just 23.9 fantasy points per game to the position. While his 5 catches for 64 yards in Week 9 were a step forward, his price point makes him a hard sell. It is important to monitor his performance with Lamar back before rostering him over the higher-floor WR in the same price range.

Vikings Offense: The High-Variance Upside

The Vikings also welcomed back their starter, J.J. McCarthy, who silenced doubters by leading the team to a 27-24 victory over the Detroit Lions. McCarthy's stat line was modest (143 passing yards, 1 passing TD, 1 INT), but he added a vital rushing score (12 rushing yards and 1 TD), giving him a valuable floor.

QB J.J. McCarthy ($7,100 FanDuel): McCarthy is strictly a cheap QB option used to save salary for high-priced skill players. While he has elite weapons in Justin Jefferson, Jordan Addison, and T.J. Hockenson, the lack of data and the surging Ravens' defense, which has yielded only 39 points over the past three weeks, make him highly risky.

WR Justin Jefferson ($9,00 FanDuel): Despite a slow season start (for his standards) due to the QB carousel, Jefferson is still the best WR in the NFL. The Ravens surrender an average of 31 fantasy points to opposing WR units in 2025 (above the league median). The potential absence of defensive back Nate Wiggins (groin) further tilts the scales. If rostering Jefferson at his premium price, you must pair him with his "cheap" QB, McCarthy, to maximize the correlation of his massive, inevitable ceiling.

WR Jordan Addison ($7,00 FanDuel): After seeing a cooled target volume recently (just 8 targets over the last two weeks), Addison is priced at a spot that makes him an excellent play. If the Ravens prioritize shutting down Jefferson, Addison has the talent and potential for a 20-point fantasy score that could swing a DFS tournament.

Suggested DFS Stacks

The Ravens-Vikings clash is defined by the play of Lamar Jackson and J.J. McCarthy in their return from injury last week. Jackson is an elite option, as he will provide owners with passing and rushing stats, which immediately elevates Derrick Henry back into a high-floor running back role. The key to value is the tight end position: Isaiah Likely is the boom-or-bust value play at an extremely affordable price point, given his instant chemistry with Jackson. On the Vikings' side, Justin Jefferson is a massive ceiling option who should be paired with his cheap quarterback, McCarthy. At the same time, Jordan Addison serves as an excellent pivot to attack the secondary. This game is built to stack the high-floor Ravens' engine with the high-ceiling Vikings' receivers.

  • Jackson / Henry Core Stack: The highest-floor two-man correlation, capitalizing on Lamar's return and Henry's volume.
  • Jackson / Likely / Jefferson Full Game Stack: A high-leverage build using the cheap TE value and running it back with the biggest receiving ceiling in the game. 
  • Jackson / Henry / Addison Value Stack: Pairs the two top Ravens and runs it back with the affordable, high-upside Vikings WR.
  • McCarthy / Jefferson / Henry Cheap QB Option Stack: A risky bet that assumes Jefferson booms, making McCarthy exceed value, and secures the high-floor Henry.

 

Los Angeles Rams (6-2) vs. San Francisco 49ers (6-3)

  • Spread: Rams -4.5
  • Game Total: 49.5 (opened 48.5)

Rams Offensive Engine: Stafford's Unstoppable Efficiency

The Los Angeles Rams are playing like Super Bowl contenders, anchored by Matthew Stafford's MVP-level efficiency. He ranks 1st in the NFL with 21 touchdowns against only 2 interceptions, compiling 2,147 passing yards (6th in the NFL) and averaging 21.16 fantasy points per game. Stafford is the 5th highest-priced QB on FanDuel ($8,000) this week, but his consistent production gives him a floor sitting at 20 fantasy points here in Week 10. He is poised to finish as a possible top-3 QB against a 49ers defense that ranks 17th overall and 20th against the pass (223.7 yards against).

WR Puka Nacua ($9,900 FanDuel): The entire slate bends around Puka Nacua. He is the most expensive WR for good reason, ranking 5th in total fantasy points (131.1) despite missing Week 7. Before his rib injury exit last week, Nacua was dominant (7 catches for 95 yards and a score). Although he carries a 'Questionable' tag, scans were negative, and all signs point to him suiting up. The 49ers' secondary is very beatable, and Nacua floor sits at around 18 fantasy points, with the easy potential to finish as the top FanDuel WR. Paying the hefty price tag significantly handcuffs the rest of your roster, but his ceiling justifies the sacrifice.

WR Davante Adams ($8,800 FanDuel): Adams has experienced a career resurgence with the Rams, ranking 7th in fantasy points (115.1) and leading the NFL with 8 receiving touchdowns. He is a true red-zone monster. Against a 49ers defense that has conceded 15 passing touchdowns thus far, Adams could easily pass his 13-fantasy-point floor, making him a bargain buy if he finds the end zone on multiple trips.

49ers Counter: CMC's Unavoidable Volume

In preparation for their Week 10 mathcup, Brock Purdy has received the majority of the first-team reps, but Mac Jones will certainly need to stay ready. Both signal-callers are cheaply priced ($7,000 FanDuel) and, with a floor around 15 fantasy points, offer a buy-low QB option to fund high-priced skill players.

RB Christian McCaffrey ($9,700 FanDeul): CMC is the primary reason to stack the 49ers' side. Ranking 2nd in total fantasy points (200.7), McCaffrey is the NFL's best dual-threat back. His volume is unprecedented: he has rushed for a pedestrian 596 yards and 4 scores, but is tormenting defenses through the air with 61 catches for 626 yards and 4 scores (18 more receptions than any other RB). If you save money at another position, McCaffrey, with a floor around 20 fantasy points, is the piece that propels a lineup to victory.

TE George Kittle ($6,100 FanDuel): Kittle has battled through a hamstring injury suffered in Week 1, failing to eclipse 13 fantasy points in his four games played. However, his undeniable talent and the fact that the Rams' defense has surrendered 44 catches, 391 yards, and 4 scores to tight ends this season make him an interesting, low-owned choice. Betting on the 49ers' passing game and Kittle's price tag could be a steal.

Recommended DFS Stacks

The Rams at 49ers NFC West rivalry is a high-total (49.5) DFS game, a must-stack due to the Rams' MVP-level offense and the 49ers' injury-riddled defense. Matthew Stafford is a top-3 QB play. The key decision is whether to pay the premium for Puka Nacua ($9,900), who has a 20+ point ceiling, or pivot to the reliable red-zone threat of Davante Adams ($8,800). On the 49ers' side, Christian McCaffrey ($9,700) is an indispensable asset who leads all RBs in receiving volume and is an easy pair with the value QB play from Purdy/Jones ($7,000). The overall strategy is to invest heavily in the Rams' passing game and use CMC as the correlation anchor.

  • Stafford / Nacua Rams Stack WR1: Betting the biggest price tag on the slate pays off with a huge ceiling.
  • Stafford / Adams Rams Stack w/ WR2: A slightly cheaper route, betting on Adams' superior red-zone scoring rate. 
  • Stafford / Adams / CMC Primary Game Stack: The most balanced construction, combining the Rams' passing touchdowns with the 49ers' most reliable fantasy asset. 
  • Purdy/Jones / CMC Value QB Anchor: Utilizes the cheap 49ers QB to lock in CMC's elite production. 
  • Purdy/Jones / Adams / Kittle Mix Value Stack: A cheap double-stack that bets on the 49ers' passing game being productive and runs it back with the Rams' secondary scoring options.
  • Purdy/Jones / Nacua / Kittle Max Ceiling Stack: Pairs the most expensive receiver with the cheapest QB and runs it back with the 49ers' high-upside TE.

 

New York Giants (2-7) vs. Chicago Bears (5-3)

  • Spread: Bears -4.5
  • Game Total: 46.5

Giants Offense: Dart’s Rushing Floor Provides Safety

Rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart has provided a massive spark for the Giants, demonstrating the confidence and skillset necessary to compete in the NFL. In his 6 starts this season, Dart has 1,175 passing yards, 10 touchdowns, and 3 interceptions, while adding a significant rushing floor with 51 carries for 251 yards and 5 scores.

QB Jaxson Dart ($7,700 FanDuel): Dart faces a vulnerable Bears defense that ranks 26th in total defense, surrendering 368.8 yards per game. They give up an average of 237.6 yards per game through the air and have allowed a total of 26 passing touchdowns. The injury to running back Cam Skattebo places the success of this offense squarely on Dart's arm and legs. At a very affordable price tag, Dart is a perfect selection, as he has scored at least 19 fantasy points in every start, making his rushing/passing combination highly bankable.

WR Wan'Dale Robinson ($6,000 FanDuel): Robinson is a viable flyer due to his high target share. He has seen 27 targets in the last 3 games, catching 18 of them for 189 yards, though he has failed to hit paydirt. While his floor sits around 6 fantasy points, his low price point and high target share make him a potential tournament winner if he can finally find the end zone in Week 10.

Bears Offense: The Buy-Low Spot is Here

Bears quarterback Caleb Williams had one of his best games of the 2025 season last week, passing for 280 yards, 3 scores, and rushing for 53 yards on just 5 carries. On the season, Williams has thrown for 1,916 yards, 12 touchdowns, and 4 interceptions. He faces a Giants secondary that surrenders an average of 232.1 passing yards and a total of 15 scores.

QB Caleb Williams ($7,400 FanDuel): Williams' low price tag is a shocker given his Week 9 production. Against this vulnerable Giants defense, Williams is a strong value pick with a floor of 20 fantasy points and a legitimate shot at finishing in the top 5 this week.

WR Rome Odunze ($7,600 FanDuel): Odunze, who leads the team with 473 receiving yards on 31 catches and 5 touchdowns, was "goosed egged" (0 points) in Week 9, receiving only 3 targets. If there was ever a week to buy low on Odunze in DFS formats, this is it, as he will be low-owned and is due for a “get right game”.

TE Colston Loveland ($5,600 FanDuel): The rookie tight end had a massive coming-out party in Week 9, securing 6 passes for 118 yards and 2 scores, including the 56-yard game-winning touchdown. Prior to this outburst, Loveland’s highest fantasy week was just 5.3 points. However, at his low price point, and with the likelihood of Cole Kmet being limited, Loveland is a high-risk, high-reward play worth the flier.

WR DJ Moore ($6,400 FanDuel): Moore benefited from Odunze's quiet day in Week 9, scoring 20.98 fantasy points. However, his inconsistency (only scoring 10+ fantasy points once before last week's explosion) makes him a high-risk, high-reward play in Week 10.

Recommended DFS Stacks

The Giants vs Bears matchup, despite the dropping total, remains an exceptional DFS environment due to the poor state of both defensive secondaries. Jaxson Dart ($7,700) is the highest-floor QB value play, consistently scoring 19+ fantasy points with his rushing ability, and should be paired with the high-target Wan'Dale Robinson ($6,000). The Bears offer the best ceiling, with Caleb Williams ($7,400) and Rome Odunze ($7,600) presenting a perfect buy-low opportunity after Odunze's surprising zero-point performance. The key to winning tournaments is stacking the game's biggest value plays, like the Williams / Odunze / Robinson combination, to capitalize on the high volume driven by the two inexperienced quarterbacks.

  • Dart / Robinson Giants Core Stack: Leverages Dart's high-floor and Robinson's high-volume target share at a low combined salary.
  • Williams / Odunze Bears Core Stack: The clear buy-low quarterback paired with his primary wide receiver, betting on a target correction.
  • Williams / Odunze / Robinson Full Game Stack: The highest-ceiling correlation, pairing the top WR on the Bears with the high-target WR on the Giants.
  • Dart / Odunze / Loveland Value/Ceiling Stack: Pairs the two high-risk, high-reward volume targets with the affordable Dart.
  • Williams / Moore / Loveland High Upside/Risky Stack: A low-salary Chicago stack that needs big touchdowns from both Moore and Loveland to succeed.

Good luck, and let the Fantasy Points be ever in your favor.
