With the efficiency, which was remarkably not Taylor’s profession greatest (53.4 FPTS, Week 11 of 2021), Taylor has recaptured the general scoring lead with 273.9. His fantasy managers can have however two quibbles: his disappointing Week 9 (7.7 FPTS), and that they’re going to battle to interchange his manufacturing throughout his Week 11 bye. — Cockcroft
2. De’Von Achane, RB, Miami Dolphins: His 40.5 fantasy factors weren’t a profession excessive solely as a result of his greatest single-game whole (51.3 in Week 3 of 2023) got here in his breakout, rookie-season sport. Achane’s success got here largely through the run, for as soon as, as his Dolphins unexpectedly dominated the Buffalo Payments, successful 30-13. His 29.4 factors on 22 dashing performs was simply shy of his 32.3 in that aforementioned rookie-year contest. His 5 carries for double-digit yardage have been a profession excessive, and he had 72 extra dashing yards than anticipated. Even together with his Dolphins within the midst of a horrible 12 months, Achane is getting the two-way quantity to be a weekly top-five working again. — Cockcroft
3. Jahmyr Gibbs, RB, Detroit Lions: For the second time prior to now 4 weeks, he scored in extra of 35 fantasy factors, his 38.2 in Week 10 the second-best single sport effort of his three-year NFL profession (46.0, Week 18 of 2024). Gibbs matched his private greatest with 4 carries of double-digit yardage and totaled 49 extra dashing yards than anticipated, per NFL Subsequent Gen Stats, whereas additionally including 12 factors receiving.

He is the one participant who can declare as many in a single sport this season. That ought to assure Henderson extra of a home-run-hitting function within the coming weeks, and if he begins once more for Stevenson in Week 11 towards the New York Jets, he’ll be a midrange RB2 with upside. — Cockcroft
5. Trey McBride, TE, Arizona Cardinals: The change at quarterback to Jacoby Brissett has paid large dividends for McBride and his fantasy managers, as for the third time within the Cardinals’ previous 4 video games — matching Brissett’s tenure because the Cardinals’ starter — the tight finish scored a minimum of 21 fantasy factors (27.7). McBride has scored 94.8 factors throughout that span, simply the place’s most over these 5 weeks, which is exceptional contemplating the interval included his bye. He’ll give Brock Bowers real competitors for the standing of No. 1 tight finish shifting ahead. — Cockcroft

For the third time prior to now 4 weeks alone, Dart scored 26-plus fantasy factors, totaling 26.28 factors via three quarters of play. That gave him a complete of 160.38 factors via his first seven profession begins, eighth most amongst quarterbacks in historical past. That mentioned, “via three quarters” is a vital observe as a result of Dart took a nasty hit on a dashing play that resulted in a third-quarter misplaced fumble, leaving the sport for concussion analysis. It is one more setback for the snakebit Giants, and we’ll see whether or not the harm lingers into Week 11. If it does, Russell Wilson, who scored 3.0 fantasy factors in fourth-quarter aid, will fill in and take a few of the pleasure out of the offense. A wholesome Dart, in the meantime, has arrived as a weekly starter. — Cockcroft
7. Caleb Williams, QB, Chicago Bears: Williams made performs late for this Bears group within the comeback win over the Giants — scoring 25.1 factors — and we noticed his dual-threat capacity on second-reaction scramble makes an attempt. Sure, Williams threw for 220 yards and a rating on this one, but it surely was the dashing numbers that boosted his Week 10 totals. Williams rushed for 68 yards on eight carries, which included the game-winning landing off a boot idea. Open grass for Williams there.

Maintain Williams within the QB1 combine for the Week 11 matchup versus the Minnesota Vikings. –Bowen

With a optimistic Week 11 matchup versus the Cardinals’ protection up subsequent, Kittle will stay a top-five play on the place. — Bowen
Rating fantasy losers of Week 10
1. Justin Jefferson, WR, Minnesota Vikings: Probably the most-started extensive receiver (97.8% of ESPN leagues), Jefferson wound up one of many greatest disappointments in Week 10, scoring solely 7.7 fantasy factors regardless of 12 targets. Baltimore Ravens cornerbacks Marlon Humphrey and Nate Wiggins bottled him up all day, and J.J. McCarthy threw each of his interceptions on throws in Jefferson’s route. Credit score the enhancing Ravens protection for this consequence, however Jefferson ought to rebound with large numbers in an incredible Week 11 matchup towards the Chicago Bears. — Cockcroft
2. Bijan Robinson, RB, Atlanta Falcons: He scored solely 10.8 fantasy factors within the Falcons’ 31-25 additional time loss to the Indianapolis Colts in Berlin, giving him solely 34.2 factors prior to now three weeks mixed.

He ought to rebound in Week 11 towards the Carolina Panthers. — Cockcroft
3. James Prepare dinner III, RB, Buffalo Payments: Unfavourable sport circulation disrupted the dashing quantity for Prepare dinner on Sunday within the blowout loss at Miami. Prepare dinner’s 13 carries tied a season low, as he rushed for 53 yards.

4. Michael Pittman Jr., WR, Indianapolis Colts: Pittman wasn’t closely concerned within the Week 10 sport plan versus Atlanta, catching each of his targets for less than 19 yards, which produced a season-low 3.9 factors. With Tyler Warren (10 targets) and Alec Pierce (seven targets) seeing extra appears to be like, Pittman merely did not get sufficient work. Pittman had scored 20 or extra factors in every of his previous three video games, and he’ll be again in WR2 ranks when the Colts return from the bye in Week 12 at Kansas Metropolis. — Bowen
5. Sam Darnold, QB, Seattle Seahawks: On a mistake-filled day for Darnold, one which featured extraordinarily low throwing quantity, the quarterback had a season-low 4.92 factors.

6. Bo Nix, QB; Courtland Sutton, WR, Denver Broncos: That Broncos’ go sport was a troublesome watch within the Thursday evening win over the Raiders. Nix completed with a season-low 5.8 factors, throwing for 150 yards with one landing and two picks, plus he failed to provide as a runner (5 carries, minus-2 yards). Nix’s footwork appeared frenetic, and the deep ball interception highlighted his lack of an influence arm.

Nix will stay a lower-tier QB1 in my ranks for the Week 11 residence sport versus Kansas Metropolis, whereas Sutton suits as a flex possibility. –Bowen
7. Brock Bowers, TE, Las Vegas Raiders: From a 43.3-point Week 9, then the very best particular person rating by any participant this season (see Taylor above for the brand new proprietor of mentioned honor), to a 3.7 level Thursday evening efficiency, Bowers actually has annoyed his managers this season. Forgive him considerably for this one, because the Denver Broncos’ stingy go protection was largely behind it, but it surely’s honest to level to Geno Smith’s struggles passing as a contributing consider Bowers’ inconsistency. Fortuitously for his fantasy managers, he attracts a unbelievable Week 11 matchup within the Dallas Cowboys, so anticipate a rebound to larger level totals. — Cockcroft

What we all know: He left Sunday’s sport early within the third quarter to a hamstring harm and was unable to return.
