Fantasy Football: Week 10 predictions to count on

The Yahoo team delivers their most steadfast fantasy football predictions for Week 10.

Deebo Samuel Sr. reminds us of his WR1 upside

Samuel Sr.’s production has been inconsistent and underwhelming, with an unreliable target share and recurring injury issues, but Week 10 is the perfect bounce back opportunity. Coming off the bye week, Samuel faces a Buccaneers defense that’s the fantasy equivalent of leaving a kid alone in a candy shop.

The Patriots have allowed the fifth-most fantasy points to running backs this year, and RBs have averaged 143.5 rushing yards against New England over the last four games. Swift finishes as a top-five fantasy back this week. — Dalton Del Don

Overall, Tampa Bay has allowed the third-most passing yards per game on the season (255.9) and the third-most receiving touchdowns (18). Not surprisingly, they have been particularly…
