What are five bold fantasy football predictions for Week 10 of the NFL season?

Each week, FanSided offers five bold predictions pertaining to your fantasy football matchups. This is the 10th edition of a series that will accompany you deep into your fantasy postseason travels.

Generally speaking, these fantasy football predictions are based on a 10-team, PPR league perspective. Most of the time, the assertions will apply to all aspects of fantasy football. If some sleepers are honorably mentioned, don’t be upset that the player is considered a sleeper when he may be the best option you have to plug-and-play.

Not all leagues abide by the traditional 10-man format, and some leagues are even more exciting when they’re out-of-the-norm leagues.

For full disclosure, let’s hold ourselves accountable for last week:

  1. In place of Kenny Golladay, Marvin Jones thrives. Correct. Jones was not incredible, but he did post 13 PPR points.
  2. The Buffalo Bills find a way to put the clamps on D.K. Metcalf, a bit. Incorrect. Metcalf had a big day despite our predictions.
  3. James Robinson has a day vs. HOUCorrect. Robinson was the fifth-best PPR RB of Week 9.
  4. The mini-struggle tour of Lamar Jackson continuesCorrect. Jackson produced 18.6 fantasy points, a pedestrian showing for him.
  5. Noah Fant has a startable TE1 day against the Falcons. Mostly Incorrect. Fant was injured and lost for the season.

On to Week 10. Here are five relatively brazen predictions that are associated with Week 10 only. Not all of these projections will be accurate all of the time. Fantasy football dealings are topsy-turvy. Overall, though, let this season-long series serve as a pocketbook to your fantasy strategy.
