The Recorder Sports staff gives their take on the week 10 NFL fantasy landscape.

Who is your sure thing for the week?

Ryan Jones- Assistant Sports Editor: Michael Thomas (WR, New Orleans Saints) -Thomas had a season’s best 211 yards against the acclaimed Rams defense. The Saints receiver will face the Bengals next week, who have allowed the most receiving yards in the NFL to opponents this season (2,646).

Shaina Blakesley- Arts & Entertainment Editor: Julio Jones (WR, Atlanta Falcons) – Jones caught seven of 10 targets for 121 yards and a touchdown during Sunday’s 38-14 win over Washington. This week Jones faces a Cleveland defense that has been marred by injuries and is not nearly as formidable as the redskins defense. Look for Jones to explode this week.

Julia Jade Moran- Photography Editor: Kareem Hunt (RB, Kansas City Chiefs) – This week, the Chiefs go up against the Cardinals who are one of the worst teams in the league against the run. Hunt has scored in eight consecutive games; expect him to make it nine.

Who is your sleeper for the week?

Jones- Amari Cooper (WR, Dallas Cowboys) – Cooper will have to play an important role in Dallas’ week ten matchup against the division rival Eagles. The game will be the second in a Cowboys uniform for Cooper, coming from a trade with the Raiders. It can be assumed that Cooper will quickly be inserted into the WR1 role for a Cowboys offense struggling in the passing game. The Eagles rank 26th in receiving yards allowed, so the ceiling for Cooper is certainly a high one.

Blakesley- Adam Humphries (WR, Tampa Bay Buccaneers) – With teams focusing their attention on the Bucs other star receivers, Humphries is being left wide open underneath and making the most of it. Last week, in a loss to the Panthers, he was 8 for 8 for 82 yards and two touchdowns. This week, look for Washington’s defense to do the same thing that got the Panthers the win leaving Humphries the benefactor.

Moran- Marquez Valdes-Scantling (WR Green Bay Packers) – In week nine against the Patriots, Valdes-Scantling had 101 receiving yards in only three receptions. Despite being in a crowded position on the Packers, he has still been able to consistently put up numbers.

Who is going to bust this week?

Jones- Christian McCaffrey (RB, Carolina Panthers) -Despite having a strong season for the Panthers thus far, McCaffrey faces the Steelers in week 10, who only gave up 35 yards to the Ravens’ Alex Collins in week nine. Unless it is PPR, McCaffrey’s value could be on its way down against the tout Pittsburgh defense.

Blakesley- Jalen Richard (RB, Oakland Raiders) – Even as the Raiders’ only real option at RB with Marshawn Lynch out, the Raiders Offensive line is lost on the field and looks to be in another tough battle against the Los Angeles Chargers. 

Moran-Tarik Cohen (RB, Chicago Bears) – Cohen gained only five yards rushing last week against a poor Bills defense, taking a backseat to fellow back Jordan Howard. How the Bears would use the two backs has been questioned by fans and fantasy owners alike, but last week’s game against Buffalo might have answered that.
