Are you ready for another exciting week of fantasy football? Week 10 is here, and it’s time to scour the waiver wire for those hidden gems that could make a big difference in your lineup. We’ve got you covered with our top 10 waiver wire pickups for Week 10. Let’s dive in!
1. Zach Charbonnet – RB (Seattle Seahawks)
Zach Charbonnet may not be a household name, but he’s been quietly making waves in the Seahawks’ backfield. Despite a tough matchup against Baltimore’s stout defense, Chanet out-snapped Kenneth Walker for the second consecutive week. With a potential increased role on the horizon, he’s worth a roster spot in your fantasy team.
2. Keaton Mitchell – RB (Baltimore Ravens)
Keaton Mitchell turned heads with his explosive 138-yard performance on just nine carries, including a touchdown. While the Ravens employ a running back committee, Mitchell’s big-play ability makes him a valuable addition. Manage your expectations, but Mitchell could be a regular contributor in Baltimore’s rotation.
3. Joshua Dobbs – QB (Minnesota Vikings)
In a surprising turn of events, Joshua Dobbs put on a spectacular performance with three total touchdowns and nearly 25 fantasy points for the Vikings. While he may not be perfect, waiver wire quarterbacks are all about touchdown potential, and Dobs has shown it both through the air and on the ground. Keep an eye on him for future weeks.

4. Demario Douglas – WR (New England Patriots)
Demario Douglas is emerging as a potential WR1 for the New England Patriots. With Kendrick Bourne sidelined for the season, Douglas stepped up with a solid performance, showcasing his skills with five receptions on seven targets for 55 yards. He’s a player to watch as the Patriots face favorable matchups down the road.
5. Tyjae Spears – RB (Tennessee Titans)
While Derrick Henry remains the RB1 in Tennessee, Tyjae Spears has demonstrated his high-upside handcuff potential. If Henry were to go down with an injury, Spears could step into a significant role. Don’t underestimate the value of a reliable handcuff, especially in the later stages of the season.
6. Jonnu Smith – TE (Atlanta Falcons)
Jonnu Smith‘s consistent usage in the Falcons’ offense can no longer be ignored. He’s climbed the tight end ranks, sitting as TE13 in total points and TE17 in average points per game through Week 8. Smith’s performance in Week 9, including five receptions for 100 yards and a touchdown, solidifies his streaming value at tight end.
7. Jayden Reed – WR (Green Bay Packers)
Jayden Reed may not have had any breakout games, but he’s been steadily involved in the Packers’ offense. With Christian Watson dealing with injuries, Reed’s role could continue to grow. Keep an eye on him as he provides a reliable option for Aaron Rodgers.
8. Will Levis – QB (New York Giants)
Will Levis is a strong streaming option at quarterback for Week 10. With the quarterback landscape in turmoil this season, Levis offers high-upside potential. Despite an unimpressive box score, he performed well against a resurgent defense and faces a favorable matchup against Tampa Bay in Week 10.
9. Quentin Johnston – WR (Los Angeles Chargers)
Quentin Johnston is a speculative add, considering the uncertainty surrounding Monday night games. However, with Mike Williams out for the season and Josh Palmer on IR, Johnston is poised to see increased targets from one of the league’s best quarterbacks. Monitor his performance, and if he shines, consider him a valuable pickup.
10. Improve Your Bench
Beyond these top waiver wire targets, don’t forget to consider improving your bench and stashing players with potential value increases. Fantasy football is all about adaptability, and having depth on your roster can make a significant difference as the season progresses.
