In Week 9, four QBs posted over 25 fantasy points. The first two were big names with Joe Burrow leading the way with over 30 fantasy points and Jalen Hurts finishing just under that total with 29.9 fantasy points. On the other hand, the other two were surprises, as Geno Smith and Daniel Jones were outstanding value plays while trying to help their teams rally.
After that strong fantasy game, Geno and the Seahawks are on their bye this week while Jones and the Giants are headed to Germany to face the Panthers in an early Sunday game. The Raiders, Packers and Browns are also on a bye this week, leaving 28 starting QBs in Week 10’s player pool.
Another big game to watch this week is the showdown between Lamar Jackson and Joe Burrow. In their first meeting this season back in Week 5, both stars had over 37 fantasy points, and they’ll look to duplicate their huge numbers in the rematch.
Patrick Mahomes and Baker Mayfield are still playing on Monday, but heading into the week, here’s how I’d rank the top 10 QBs for Week 10:
- Lamar Jackson (vs. CIN)
- Jalen Hurts (at DAL)
- Joe Burrow (at BAL)
- Josh Allen (at IND)
- Jayden Daniels (vs. PIT)
- Jared Goff (at HOU)
- Kirk Cousins (at NO)
- Patrick Mahomes (vs. DEN)
- Kyler Murray (vs. NYJ)
- Sam Darnold (at JAC)
These rankings are based on news and information available as of Monday evening. Stay tuned to DraftKings Network throughout the week for ongoing coverage as matchups and situations develop.
