Fantasy football analyst Sal Vetri shares his keys to victory every week of the 2023 NFL season.
Finding No. 1: The Best RB Spot of the Week – Tony Pollard
Tony Pollard scored under 10 points in Week 9. However, he is now in a great spot for Week 10, facing the Giants as a 17-point home favorite. In similar situations in the past, Pollard has averaged 16.5 fantasy points.
Finding No. 2: The Sketchy RB Spot of the Week – Jerome Ford
Jerome Ford will face the Baltimore Ravens, who have a formidable run defense. Despite high usage in Week 9, it’s advisable to temper expectations in this tough matchup.
Finding No. 3: The Underrated QB Play of the Week – Sam Howell
Sam Howell has been a top-10 fantasy option this season. Facing the Seahawks in Week 10, who allow an above-average 255 passing yards per game, makes Howell an intriguing prospect.
Finding No. 4: Sell-High Player of the Week – Gus Edwards
While Gus Edwards has performed well recently, his recent production may not be sustainable. Trade Edwards before his tough matchup against the Browns in Week 10.
Finding No. 5: The No. 1 Trade Target – Cooper Kupp
Despite recent struggles, Cooper Kupp is a desirable trade target, especially with the return of Matthew Stafford as his quarterback.
Finding No. 6: Rachaad White is Trending Up
Rachaad White has been a consistent fantasy producer and is set to face the Titans. If he performs well against their linebackers in the passing game, he might become matchup-proof in future weeks.
Finding No. 7: Tough Times for Arjei Henderson
Wide receiver Arjei Henderson is averaging just 5.8 points in his four healthy games this season. With injuries and low usage, his fantasy outlook is bleak.
Finding No. 8: Sneaky Waiver Wire Adds
Trenton Irwin and Isaiah McKenzie are intriguing waiver wire options due to injuries to key players in their respective teams. Both could see increased playing time and opportunities.
Finding No. 9: Najee Harris is a Veteran on the Rise
Najee Harris has been quietly playing well, and his usage has improved. He is an appealing option against the Packers defense this week.
Finding No. 10: James Conner’s Usage is Something to Watch
James Conner is expected to return from injury and could be a must-start every week if he regains his elite usage.
