Wide Receiver Sleepers, Risers, Fantasy Football Breakouts - Targets, Air Yards, Snaps Trends Analysis For Week 11

by Kevin Tompkins

Targets are paramount when it comes to evaluating pass-catchers for fantasy football. There are no air yards, receiving yards, receptions, or touchdowns without first earning a target. There’s a reason the biggest and most consistent target-earners are among the top fantasy point scorers: they can be relied on by not just their team’s offense to earn targets and produce on those targets.

We’ll take a weekly team-by-team look into these target earners and separate the wheat from the chaff. To properly lead into what we’ll be looking at this season, we’ll have to establish a baseline of the most important things we’re looking at with targets and other receiving metrics that paint the full picture for who we should be rostering, who we should be adding, and who we can drop.

Everything we’ll discuss in this season’s WR/TE/RB Targets, Air Yards, and Snaps trends analysis article will be some of the best statistics and metrics correlating to fantasy production. Think of targets as a page in a coloring book, representing the outline yet to be colored. Coloring on that page adds context and flavor to that page. That’s what we’ll do with targets — adding more context than just some target totals and box score stats.

Note: Statistics from our player pages at RotoBaller were included during the compilation of data, while Pro Football Reference, PFF, Fantasy Points Data, NFELO, NFL NextGenStats, NFL Pro+, RotoViz, ESPN Stats and Info, SumerSports, and Nathan Jahnke's Immediate Fantasy Football Takeaways article for that particular week were also used as resources in the creation of this article.

Cardinals Notes From Week 10:

I wouldn’t say we got the full yearly Kyler Murray legacy game in Week 10, but it was his best game of the season from a fantasy perspective. With two rushing touchdowns and one through the air to Marvin Harrison Jr. (five targets, 5-54-1) the Cards poured it on against the Aaron Rodgers Industrial Complex, 31-6.

Murray was incredibly efficient (22-of-24 passing) with a nice day from Trey McBride (five targets, 4-71) as well as Harrison’s. But no tight end or wide receiver led the Cardinals in receiving, because that was…

James Conner (12-33-1 rushing; five targets, 5-80 receiving), who did his damage with a rushing touchdown and then a huge boost to his floor with the receiving work. Trey Benson (10-62 rushing; two targets, 2-25 receiving) salted away a lot of the late-game stuff with an efficient 6.2 yards per carry.

Falcons Notes From Week 10:

We talk about condensed offenses all the time in this article throughout this season, but nobody has been as condensed as the Atlanta Falcons, who only threw to five players in Week 10. Both Drake London (team-leading 12 targets, 8-97) and Ray-Ray McCloud (four targets, 3-30) had 100% route participation with Darnell Mooney (eight targets, 5-96) at 97%.

Kyle Pitts (five targets, 4-55) is still hanging around, but he’s clearly behind London and Mooney at this point, and even Bijan Robinson in terms of passing-game utilization.

Robinson (20-116-2 rushing; four targets, 3-28 receiving) has been such a stud over the last five weeks, averaging 24.3 fantasy points per game in that span with a per-game average of 18 carries, 93 yards, one touchdown, five targets, and four receptions for 35 yards.

The team has finally learned quite a bit with not taking away from Robinson to give to Tyler Allgeier. Allgeier (11-59 rushing) remains a priority contingent play, and he was pretty useful in Week 10. Still, you’re not starting him unless you’re absolutely desperate.

Ravens Notes From Week 10:

Sheesh, break up the Ravens, who are playing game of football like a bunch of fun-havers out here. Lamar Jackson had four touchdowns and 290 yards passing, looking every bit like the league MVP yet again.

The Bengals were up 21-7 at the beginning of the third quarter, but the Ravens peeled off three consecutive touchdowns, then traded touchdowns, and the Bengals scored with :38 seconds left, went for two and didn’t convert to lose.

Targets were spread around, but Mark Andrews (seven targets, 6-68-1) and Rashod Bateman (team-leading eight targets, 6-54-1) were solid and both scored. Zay Flowers (six targets, 4-34) missed the boat a bit in a lower 5.0-yard aDOT role.

Tylan Wallace (3-115-1, just five total routes) put up a team-leading 115 receiving yards on the strength of an 84-yard touchdown off of a six-yard out where he broke a terrible tackle attempt and sped past the entire defense along the sideline.

This was probably an anomaly, especially with Diontae Johnson (two targets, 1-6). You have to figure he’s still going to ascend in routes eventually, but he actually took a sharp downturn from 27% routes in his first game to just 8%.

Multiple sources are telling me that Derrick Henry (16-68-1 rushing; one target. 1-3 receiving) is still pretty good.

Bills Notes From Week 10:

No Keon Coleman, no Amari Cooper, no problem for the Bills, who with the parts shifting all around in the passing game, still find ways to just crank out wins and production. Khalil Shakir (team-leading nine targets, 6-58) led the way in everything for the passing game and even bumped up his aDOT to a usable 7.8 yards.

Curtis Samuel (eight targets, 4-35) has been the opposite of a bastion of health this season but could go enough to earn eight targets.

With starting tight end Dalton Kincaid (four targets, 2-24) leaving the game with a knee injury after running just 11 pass routes, Dawson Knox (three targets, 2-40) was able to pick up the slack at tight end and saw his highest routes per drop back of the season with 63%.

Kincaid said he wanted to go back in the game but was held back in doing so and then missed practice on Wednesday. If Kincaid cannot go in Week 11 vs. the Chiefs, Knox becomes a tight end streamer.

James Cook (19-80-1 rushing; three targets, 1-5 receiving) saw some solid volume on the ground and still splits a lot of time on the field with Ty Johnson (three targets, 3-32 receiving) and Ray Davis (3-6 rushing), but Cooks always gets his despite just 55% of snaps.

Panthers Notes From Week 10:

The Panthers really didn’t need to pass in this Germany-based snoozer, where I said I would be nice and live-post this game from my Bluesky account, but it was just a bunch of Chuba Hubbard (28-153-1 rushing; five targets, 4-16 receiving) running the ball (to great success, mind you!), a bunch of inefficient targets to Jalen Coker (team-leading eight targets, 3-41), and a touchdown to Ja’Tavion Sanders (two targets, 2-8-1).

Coker may run predominately in the slot for the Panthers, but he had a season-high 93% routes with Xavier Legette (four targets, 3-40) getting 100% route participation.

Bears Notes From Week 10:

Yeah. The Bears clearly have had enough of the Shane Waldron “Experience”, jettisoning him of his duties early in the week and installing Thomas Brown, the former Panthers OC last season, as the new coordinator for the rest of the season. It’s still not great, but the Bears feels like a complete holding pattern.

Head coach Matt Eberflus may just be going down with the Bears ship at this point, because for one thing, seeing what Waldron did to the Seattle Seahawks last season with Jaxon Smith-Njigba saying “good luck to y’all” when posed the question about Waldron when he was first added to the Chicago staff, that immediate silence and the first thing he said was very telling.

To JSN’s credit, he was as diplomatic as he could be when getting that particular question on the spot, and you could see the gears turning in his brain trying not to just outright blast Waldron.

It’s going to be an important period for Caleb Williams this offseason, as the Bears will likely hire the coaches responsible for determining whether Williams is going to be a long-term quarterback for the Bears, or if he’s just a first-round bust and go back to the well with a new signal-caller.

Do I get a say? Give him Detroit’s Ben Johnson.

The Bears predictably keep things very tight and condensed with not just their targets, but their personnel as well, with all three wide receivers running at least 88% or more routes. 20 of the 23 targets went to D.J. Moore (four targets, 3-24), Keenan Allen (six targets, 5-44), Rome Odunze (six targets, 3-23), and Cole Kmet (four targets. 2-13. 83% routes).

D’Andre Swift (16-59 rushing; one target, 1-6 receiving) kept the bulk of the workload with 67% snaps and 16-of-17 running back carries, with Roschon Johnson (1-(-4) rushing; one target, 1-5 receiving) seeing some time but ultimately notching just two touches.

Bengals Notes From Week 10:

Ja’Marr Chase (team-leading 16 targets, 11-264-3; none of this is a typo) absolutely destroyed worlds in what looks like the best fantasy output we’ll see from a wide receiver this season. He had touchdowns of 67 and 70 yards and looked like the best player on the planet where you couldn’t stop him no matter who or how many players you put on him.

Other than Chase’s monumental game, Mike Gesicki (nine targets, 4-30) earned a bunch of targets but ultimately disappointed. Tanner Hudson (seven targets, 6-42-1) was productive, scoring the only non-Chase touchdown.

But then there’s Chase Brown (13-42-1 rushing; ten targets, 9-52 receiving, who is just racking up touches with 22 and splitting them almost evenly in the rushing and receiving game. Without Zack Moss, Brown is living his best life, with a whopping 87% snap share and feasting at the right time. He’s looking like one of the best picks on the second half of draft boards and peaking at the right time.

Cowboys Notes From Week 10:

Dak Prescott hit season-ending injured reserve this week with the news that he’s undergoing surgery on his hamstring, so where does that leave the Cowboys? Well, if Week 10 was any indication, it’s going to be a ROUGH one.

The combination of Cooper Rush and Trey Lance threw for 66 passing yards and one interception as they interchangeably stunk up the entire joint. As you can expect, it wasn’t a very fruitful day for any of the pass-catchers, though CeeDee Lamb (team-leading 8 targets, 6-21) did earn 8 targets, but was predictably inefficient and at much shorter depth than usual, given the inadequacy.

Going forward, everybody in this passing game gets an obvious downgrade. In fact, the only players I’d consider rostering are Lamb, Jake Ferguson (five targets, 4-24), and Rico Dowdle (12-53 rushing; three targets, 3-3 receiving). It’s that dire.

Whether it’s Rush or Lance, or a “mystery quarterback”, it’s going to be gross from here on out, folks. It’s okay to get off this train.

Broncos Notes From Week 10:

The only pass-catcher worth a damn is Courtland Sutton (nine targets, 6-70-1); let’s not kid ourselves by trying to make fetch happen with Troy Franklin (two targets, 1-9), Lil’Jordan Humphrey (three targets, 2-23) or insert any other Broncos wide receiver.

Week 11 was not a great week for Javonte Williams (1-1 rushing; two targets, 2-6 receiving) as Audric Estime (14-53 rushing) saw a season-high 26 snaps (45%) and saw 70% of the team’s rushing attempts. Many are saying “Joever” for Williams, and it just might be with Estime seeming like he’s not at the top of the heap for the Broncos.

The thing to take away here is that Estime hasn’t been super great and it’s not like this is something that’s been brewing for weeks to get Estime more work. It’s actually been on the other side with Williams not looking anywhere close to what he was drafted as. Thank a multi-ligament knee injury for that, and that’s the downside of players who have these serious injuries.

Lions Notes From Week 10:

The first thing that came to mind after watching the Lions (namely Jared Goff) in this game was the Krusty the Clown meme from The Simpsons where they show an episode of Itchy and Scratchy from another country and then cut back to Krusty with a dumbfounded look on face to exclaim “what the hell was THAT!?

A 50% completion percentage and FIVE (!) interceptions later, Goff and the Lions STILL pulled out a win, snatching victory from the jaws of defeat.

Targets were condensed to just five Lions in Week 10, with touchdowns to Sam LaPorta (six targets, 3-66-1) and Amon-Ra St. Brown (team-leading seven targets, 6-60-1). Jameson Williams (five targets, 3-53, 144 air yards – fourth in Week 10) was decent in his first game back as well.

No other Lions really produce in the passing game on a meaningful basis, so your Tim Patrick, Kalif Raymond, and others just aren’t worth even rostering, let alone start in any serious league other than 32-person leagues where you have to start anybody with a pulse.

Jahmyr Gibbs (19-71 rushing; two targets, 2-37 receiving) and David Montgomery (12-32-1 rushing; one target, 1-24 receiving) are both studs and weekly starters. Nothing new on that front.

Texans Notes From Week 10:

A quick aside: the red Texans uniforms are a complete VIBE.

Nico Collins was a (somewhat) surprise inactive leading up to Sunday Night Football, so that left some fantasy managers scrambling for options because of the limited player pool available for substitution.

I mean, I had to drop Dontayvion Wicks to put Xavier Hutchinson (four targets, 2-6, 82% routes) into my lineup for Collins and that clearly didn’t work out. I illustrate that just to show that nobody is immune to the news cycle and the reactionary stuff for fantasy. It hits everybody!

The big macro takeaway from the Texans’ season has been the deterioration of the Texans’ passing game, but this week’s deterioration came with running game and Joe Mixon (25-46-1 rushing; four targets, 2-44 receiving). Somehow, the Texans are 6-4 in spite of that, but the vibes could be MUCH better than they have been.

With the Texans’ top two receivers out and out for the season (Stefon Diggs), Tank Dell (team-leading nine targets, 5-39 receiving; 1-(-6) rushing) led the team in targets and routes (87%), but everything just feels off.

Three wide receiver sets for the Texans consisted of Dell and Hutchinson, with John Metchie (six targets, 5-74-1) in the slot much of the time. Metchie has a good chance to stick with Collins likely returning in Week 11, so he’s a nice add to fantasy benches going forward.

Metchie hasn’t really gotten an extended chance on the field with routes, but that time could be coming now as he’s looked good in limited samples and he’s a great story to root for as he’s come back from leukemia and missed his rookie season in 2022.

Colts Notes From Week 10:

Adonai Mitchell (six targets, 6-71) has had a tough time getting on the field this season. He had been able to see some decent routes toward the beginning of the season when Josh Downs (10 targets, 7-72) was hurt, but with Michael Pittman, Alec Pierce (seven targets, 4-81-1), and Downs all healthy, Mitchell seemed to be the odd man out of the rotation at wide receiver.

Mitchell took a bit of advantage of Pittman’s back injury keeping him out to see his highest routes per dropback at 95%. With Pittman undeniably trying his best to get through an injury he reportedly almost (and should have) being/been placed on injured reserve for.

But you know what stinks? When the team cannot make a decision and stick with it, because of course, the Colts and head coach Shane Steichen are playing quarterback chicken and are starting Anthony Richardson in Week 11. So there goes most of the target stuff, because you could bank on that with Joe Flacco, but not for Richardson.

At least Jonathan Taylor (21-114 rushing; four targets, 2-8 receiving) is awesome and can consolidate the rushing workload; the only thing on this offense that isn’t mostly broken at this rate. You can’t even trust Downs as anything more than a flex, and the others in the passing game have zero-point fantasy floors now with Richardson at quarterback.

Jaguars Notes From Week 10:

Mac Jones was an affront to competent quarterbacking. He completed just 14 passes for 111 yards with two interceptions while the Vikings held onto the ball for an absurd 42 minutes and 80 plays.

Evan Engram (team-leading eight targets, 6-40) got some layup targets for some decent PPR work, but everybody else had no more than two receptions or 25 receiving yards and only Gabe Davis (four targets, 1-19) earned more than three targets.

Tank Bigsby (2-4 rushing) hurt his ankle, played a couple more snaps and then left for the rest of the game, leaving the backfield to Travis Etienne (11-44 rushing; one target, 1-(-1) receiving), who was fine, but with the passing game not being able to move the ball and the lack of play volume for the entire team, it’s hard to get anything going.

Chiefs Notes From Week 10:

While the Chiefs love to use anybody and everybody as a target for Patrick Mahomes to throw to, Only Travis Kelce (team-leading 11 targets, 8-64-1), DeAndre Hopkins (five targets, 4-56), and Kareem Hunt (14-35 rushing; nine targets, 7-65 receiving) earned more than two targets.

Kelce, in particular, has been gangbusters with players like Rashee Rice out for the season and when the team needed somebody to step and take charge, he’s done so after early-season struggles.

Hunt has been awesome this season and while he earned volume but wasn’t great on the ground, he made up for it in receiving game as short-area/dump-off threat out of the backfield for Mahomes. With Isiah Pacheco set to practice, the clock is ticking for Hunt as far as a fantasy option. You may have a week or two to use Hunt if the team decides to throw him into the fire in Week 12 or 13; the latter being more likely.

Chargers Notes From Week 10:

Only one Charger earned more than three targets and that was Will Dissly (team-leading six targets. 5-50), who led the team in targets and receptions. With just 18 Justin Herbert pass attempts and a -7.9 PROE on the week, nobody you started in the passing game got there for a decent day. Not Ladd McConkey (two targets, 2-52), not Quentin Johnson (two targets, 2-24-1), even with a touchdown.

Gus Edwards (10-55 rushing) returned and got 10 carries, which stinks for J.K. Dobbins’ (15-50 rushing; three targets, 3-5 receiving) bottom line and upside despite Dobbins keep a massive role. That really was due to the game script through, but it’s still not super great.

Edwards also had his best game of the season from a rushing efficiency standpoint, which kicks down Kimani Vidal (healthy scratch) into being an easy drop off of any fantasy roster he’s still on.

Rams Notes From Week 10:

Condensed Rams stay condensed; a tale as old as time. You know Puka Nacua (team-leading 12 targets, 9-98) gets his, you know Cooper Kupp (8 targets, 7-80) gets his. Toss out that game in Week 9 where Nacua got ejected for attempting to punch a player wearing a helmet and pads, and Nacua is a slight step ahead in terms of where Matthew Stafford is directing the ball.

That’s not to say Kupp is bad; not at all. But we may have a little flippening where it’s not Kupp as the top target just based on intent.

On the tight end side, Colby Parkinson (no targets, 14% routes) was sent to the shadow realm in favor of Davis Allen (six targets, 5-34, 88% routes), so Allen should be the prioritized option moving forward. That really only means Allen is a streaming option though.

Kyren Williams (15-62 rushing; five targets, 5-20 receiving, 93% snaps) continues to play the same strong role as always with Blake Corum (2-8 rushing; one target, 1-7 receiving) taking a couple of carries here and there.

Dolphins Notes From Week 10:

Even with a big win against the Rams that could save their season, it still doesn’t feel like too much has changed about the offense when looking at the potency.

Tyreek Hill (four targets, 3-16-1) is hurt with a wrist injury but still running 88% of routes, Jaylen Waddle (team-leading six targets, 3-57) was featured a bit more, especially in the early portion of the game, and Jonnu Smith (four targets, 3-45) is seeing some manufactured touches but still not enough to truly matter week to week.

De’Von Achane (12-37 rushing; five targets, 5-15 receiving) had more than three catches amongst the Dolphins, and his role is as secure and potent as they come, even if the fantasy production wasn’t there this week. Somehow, no carries for Raheem Mostert (two targets, 2-34 receiving) as he was out on 22% routes with carries going to Jaylen Wright (5-3), who wasn’t effective. It’s Achane’s backfield, full stop.

Vikings Notes From Week 10:

In a game with 38 pass attempts, you’d except SOME competency, especially against the sieve that is the Jaguars’ pass defense, but Sam Darnold was legitimately BAD in this game. Darnold threw no touchdown passes, actually all the scoring was via the leg of John Parker Romo, who I’m sure is a real human.

At the very least, T.J. Hockenson’s (nine targets, 8-72) routes climbed from 63% last week to 71% this week. A good sign, even if the team is still playing Josh Oliver (six targets, 4-52, 48% routes) quite a bit with him. Justin Jefferson (nine targets, 5-48) suffered a little bit, as did Jordan Addison (four targets, 2-25; 1-4 rushing).

Aaron Jones (17-88 rushing; three targets, 2-13 receiving) got hit in the chest, left the game and returned, so Cam Akers (13-38 rushing; one target, 1-9) got quite a bit of run than usual for himself. That further drives home the “Ty Chandler is dust” point from last week.

Patriots Notes From Week 10:

While Drake Maye continues to show signs of being a player in this league, the passing game stuff still isn’t great because targets (especially across the wide receiver position) are so spread out to several players.

While the routes are starting to become a bit more predictable with Kayshon Boutte (six targets, 4-47) taking the lead with 100% route participation, it doesn’t help anybody too much on the fantasy scoring side because there’s just not enough production to come with it.

DeMario Douglas (five targets, 4-50) right now is the closest thing to a fantasy-relevant wide receiver and he’s as iffy as it gets with inconsistent production and his routes rarely get over 70% in each week. Not even guys like Hunter Henry (two targets, 1-14) are immune either, because he earned just two targets in Week 10 for some reason.

There’s Rhamondre Stevenson (20-74 rushing; one target, 1-3 receiving) who gets consistent volume when he’s healthy, with Antonio Gibson (5-26 rushing) taking a sort of backseat to JaMycal Hasty (6-20 rushing; one target, 1-4 receiving). Of course, the latter two players aren’t rosterable right now barring a Stevenson injury.

Saints Notes From Week 10:

I didn’t think I’d be writing about Marquez Valdes-Scantling’s Week 10, but here we are.

Normally, it’s easy to dismiss the outburst from Valdes-Scantling (three targets, 3-109-2) as hitting the good side of variance. But there are literally no pass-catchers left in New Orleans. For context, the Saints were on WR6, WR8, WR9, WR10, and WR11 that were active in Week 10. By comparison to some of those options, Valdes-Scantling looked like Ja’Marr Chase. I mean, Dante Pettis (one target, 1-8) was out there.

Valdes-Scantling only ran routes on 67% of Derek Carr’s dropbacks, but it still led the wide receivers. His three targets in Week 10 were primarily deep shots too with a 30.7-yard aDOT.

Is there target-earning potential here? Because for MVS to be anything close to a consistent option, he’s going to have to earn targets. He never has earned targets in Green Bay, Kansas City, Buffalo and hasn’t in New Orleans. MVS may have a high ceiling, but it’s coupled with a rock-bottom floor, so I’ll leave you with this: caveat emptor; buyer beware.

At least there’s Alvin Kamara (17-55 rushing; team-leading six targets. 5-54 receiving), who is still pretty solid, but remains the top fantasy across the team, which looks like a Sun Belt Conference team rather than an NFL team given its current composition.

Giants Notes From Week 10:

Despite 37 pass attempts from Daniel Jones, it only amounted to 190 yards, zero touchdowns, and two interceptions. It’s not looking great for the guy, who with the same injury guarantee in his contract as Russell Wilson had last season, it may be possible that Jones has played his last game with the New York Giants coming out of the Week 11 bye.

Target volume reliably condensed to guys like Malik Nabers (team-leading 10 targets, 6-50 receiving; 1-(-2) rushing) and Wan’Dale Robinson (eight targets, 5-51), who both combined for 56% of the team’s targets. Theo Johnson (six targets, 4-37) was also solid with six targets of his own, a likely byproduct of Darius Slayton not suiting up for the game.

Tyrone Tracy (18-103-1 rushing; two targets, 1-1 receiving) still slaps – as the kids say – with 80% snaps and 18-of-26 running back carries, notching a 100-yard game and a touchdown.

Devin Singletary (8-40 rushing; one target, 1-5 receiving) even worked in with some moderate efficiency alongside Tracy, but he’s merely a weak contingent back who, frankly, doesn’t warrant a roster spot in most leagues unless something happens to Tracy.

Jets Notes From Week 10:

While the Jets continue to be pretty condensed offense following Allen Lazard’s IR stint, Mike Williamsexodus to Pittsburgh, and the acquisition of Davante Adams, you kind of have to be pretty good to take advantage of that, and the Jets *checks notes* were not.

Adams (team-leading 13 targets, 6-31) led the team in targets with Garrett Wilson (six targets, 5-41) having only six but representing a clear second target as only Breece Hall (10-52 rushing; four targets, 4-31) had more than two targets out of every other Jets’ pass-catcher.

The Rodgers path is the path they chose, now they must take it.

Eagles Notes From Week 10:

Because the Dallas Cowboys absolutely nuked themselves, it really didn’t take much effort from the Eagles to get out in front, get in the left lane, blast some “AFI”, and set the cruise control in Week 10.

Noted “grown a** man” A.J. Brown (team-leading seven targets, 5-109) led the charge here, and with only 20 pass attempts (and two rushing touchdowns) from Jalen Hurts before Kenny Pickett entered early in the fourth quarter, there wasn’t much fantasy goodness to go around. Dallas Goedert (three targets, 2-25-1) did get one of Hurts’ two passing touchdowns on the day in his return on 66% routes.

Saquon Barkley (14-66 rushing; one target, 1-12 receiving) was merely fine, he just didn’t need to do a lot of heavy lifting with the game so well in hand.

Steelers Notes From Week 10:

With Russell Wilson at quarterback for the Steelers, there’s a new lease on life for the Steelers’ passing game thanks to George Pickens (team-leading eight targets, 5-91-1), who seemingly has developed a rapport with Wilson that just wasn’t there consistently with Justin Fields.

Of course, Wilson does have one of the better deep balls in the league and with a pair of “YOLO” wide receivers in Pickens and new acquisition Mike Williams (one target, 1-32-1, 21% routes) things are looking up a bit for Pittsburgh. Pat Freiermuth (three targets, 3-17-1) also chipped in with a touchdown as one of the better “TD-or-bust” options you’ll find in fantasy.

Najee Harris (21-53-1) was his typical self; his brand of a bunch of carries, not doing that much with them and still finding the end zone still somewhat infuriates his drafters, but he gets there in the end with 11.3 fantasy points.

Now Jaylen Warren (14-66 rushing; two targets, 2-29 receiving), he’s starting to find HIS brand of efficiency coupled with some receiving upside. Warren still didn’t out-snap Harris, but that could be coming as those two backs are neck and neck.

49ers Notes From Week 10:

One of the biggest notes from Week 10 was the return of Christian McCaffrey (13-39 rushing; seven targets, 6-68 receiving) to the 49ers and fantasy lineups. While he didn’t score, McCaffrey still put up solid numbers and massive utilization out of the gate with 88% snaps and 83% routes.

That put to bed any sneaky plays with Jordan Mason (1-5 rushing) or Isaac Guerendo (1-0 rushing), so as long as McCaffrey is healthy, Mason is purely an unstartable contingent play and Guerendo is droppable.

The passing game for the 49ers condensed down to the main guys without any involvement from ancillary pieces, as Deebo Samuel (six targets, 5-62 receiving; 3-14 rushing), a returning Jauan Jennings (team-leading 11 targets, 7-93), Ricky Pearsall (six targets, 4-73-1), George Kittle (four targets, 3-57-1), and McCaffrey took all of the available targets.

Jennings ran the most routes (95%) of the wide receivers, and his role seems much more secure over a guy like Pearsall, who will probably fluctuate a bit more weekly as he only saw 71% of routes.

Pearsall still feels like a guy being worked into the offense as the rookie there, while Jennings is the one with years of experience in the system and receiving that new contract in the offense, so there’s weight to him being there now and assuming a much larger role with Brandon Aiyuk out for the season.

Buccaneers Notes From Week 10:

The Tampa Bay stuff really revolved around the running backs, with 10 targets to the position but just four catches for 28 yards combined. Cade Otton (team-leading eight targets, 5-35) still leads the traditional pass-catching group with eight targets, but production against a stud San Francisco linebacking corps really showed in Otton’s down game.

As for the aforementioned running backs, Rachaad White (10-31 rushing; seven targets, 6-39-1 receiving) and his role as “fancy J.D. McKissic” is NOT a slight to him, I promise! He’s been excellent in the receiving game, where he should be featured a lot more.

Bucky Irving (13-73-1 rushing; three targets, 3-14), by contrast, has been much more efficient and looking incredibly agile and with the lateral movement to avoid tacklers with his 195-pound frame.

We’ve seen running backs like Aaron Jones be able to have a long career with his skillset and weighing in at less than 200 pounds. Irving is about 190-195 pounds but has not shown any lack of physical traits in his limited work on the field.

Titans Notes From Week 10:

Will Levis returned to start for the first time since his shoulder injury and with 23 pass attempts, he was more or less protected by a spread-out run game, but the was more or less out of hand despite a 27-17 score as Levis connected with Calvin Ridley (team-leading eight targets, 5-84-2) for the second of his touchdowns.

Tony Pollard (9-44 rushing; four targets, 4-19 receiving) saw a reduced snap rate in part because he left before the first half ended with a lower-leg injury, but he came back in the second half to continue his solid role in the offense, so Tyjae Spears (7-47 rushing; three targets, 3-4 receiving) took an increased role.

Commanders Notes From Week 10:

It’s really just the Terry McLaurin (six targets, 5-113) show for the Commanders as he’s been really the only weapon for Jayden Daniels to be able to trust on a consistent basis. It’s a shame that the Commanders are likely going to be picking lower in the NFL Draft next season, because there are awesome wide receivers slated to come out of the draft that would pair incredibly well as a future stud WR1 for Daniels to grow with.

We’ve always profiled McLaurin as a great WR2 but one of the weaker WR1s across the league, but as this team is currently constructed, it’s McLaurin and not being to trust anybody else. Maybe Noah Brown? Brown (six targets, 3-33) has been earning more routes up to a season-high 97% in Week 10.

It still just doesn’t matter though, as he’s not consistently producing. You’re not building this plane out of 34-year-old Zach Ertz (six targets, 4-31), that’s for sure.

With no Brian Robinson, Austin Ekeler (13-44-2 rushing; one target, 1-7 receiving) wasn’t used too much in the receiving game but was decent on the ground and scored twice. Jeremy McNichols (4-7-1 rushing) continues his path of vulturing touchdowns.
