You’ve got your fantasy football lineup all but set for the week, with a few tweaks to be made here and there as Sunday’s slate of games is ready to kick off.
But you’re trying to optimize your lineup to make sure you get the most points. And that’s why you have to make sure your D/ST position has the best possible squad to win you the week.
That’s what these rankings will help with: A look at the elite, solid, and streamable options that could win you some virtual games in your league.
Let’s break down the Week 10 D/ST tiers:
Elite
Ed Mulholland-USA TODAY Sports
1. Dallas Cowboys (vs. New York Giants)
2. Buffalo Bills (vs. Denver Broncos)
3. New Orleans Saints (at Minnesota Vikings)
4. New York Jets (at Las Vegas Raiders)
5. Baltimore Ravens (vs. Cleveland Browns)
Say a prayer for Tommy DeVito and whoever the Browns start at quarterback.
Solid
Gregory Fisher-USA TODAY Sports
6. San Francisco 49ers (at Jacksonville Jaguars)
7. Pittsburgh Steelers (vs Green Bay Packers)
8. Seattle Seahawks (vs. Washington Commanders)
9. Atlanta Falcons (at Arizona Cardinals)
10. Green Bay Packers (at Pittsburgh Steelers)
The fears associated with a west coast team flying out east for an early start are legitimate, but I’m more concerned with the Niners offense than defense there.
Streaming Options
Trevor Ruszkowski-USA TODAY Sports
11. Indianapolis Colts (at New England Patriots, in Germany)
12. New England Patriots (vs. Indianapolis Colts, in Germany)
13. Detroit Lions (at Los Angeles Chargers)
14. Tampa Bay Buccaneers (vs. Tennessee Titans)
15. Arizona Cardinals (vs. Atlanta Falcons)
Overseas games tend to favor the defenses and it’s not like any one can trust the Falcons to properly use their offense right now. So that’s three safe streaming options if you really need them. This bye week is brutal.
