Eric Karabell, senior ESPN writer and FSWA Hall of Fame member, provides weekly NFL free agent pickups for fantasy managers. Heading into Week 10, Aaron Rodgers, QB for the Steelers, headlines the options at 33.0% rostered with a 3% FAB bid. Despite a low 4.88-point outing in Week 8, Rodgers enjoys a favorable Sunday night matchup versus the Bengals and a Week 11 showdown against the Eagles. Note that several top QBs will be unavailable due to bye weeks, including Caleb Williams.
Audric Estime, RB for the Saints, emerges as a lead ballcarrier after returning from the Browns, rushing 15 times for 72 yards and a touchdown against Cleveland. He profiles as a flex option versus the Panthers. Caleb Douglas, WR for the Dolphins, dominated Miami's passing attention with eight targets and 70 yards versus the Lions, trending positively despite Malik Willis at quarterback. The Dolphins face the reeling Colts in Week 10.
Darren Waller, TE for the Panthers, scored 23 points in a loss to the Broncos, his fourth game of double-digit scoring this season. With 10 targets Sunday, Waller could become valuable if Bryce Young targets him consistently. Jacoby Brissett, filling in for the Ravens, is projected as a competent streamer against the Chargers. Deep-league options include Drew Lock for the Seahawks, currently dealing with an oblique injury.
