NFL Week 10 Buy Low, Sell High & Hold 2026: Fantasy Football Trade Targets
The NFL Week 10 buy low, sell high and hold list for 2026 arrives at an important point in the fantasy football season. Playoff races are tightening, trade deadlines are approaching in many leagues, and managers need to decide whether recent production is sustainable or creating a temporary buying or selling opportunity.
Our Week 10 trade targets focus on workload, target share, recent performance and rest-of-season upside rather than chasing one big game. Breece Hall, Rashee Rice, Jordyn Tyson and Travis Kelce headline the players worth trying to acquire, while D’Andre Swift, Drake Maye and several other productive players may be worth moving if another manager is willing to pay a premium. For immediate roster additions, see our NFL Week 10 Waiver Wire, and review the Week 10 Injury Report before making offers involving injured players.

Fantasy Football Players to Buy Low in Week 10
Breece Hall – New York Jets RB
BUY Lead Back Opportunity
Hall returned in Week 9 after missing several games with a quadriceps injury and immediately reclaimed the largest share of the Jets’ rushing workload.
He finished with 15 carries for 61 yards while adding three catches for 26 receiving yards. Hall handled 18 total opportunities compared with 10 for Braelon Allen.
The snap split was closer than fantasy managers would ideally want, but workload matters more than raw snap percentage. Hall received 60% of New York’s carries and remained involved as a receiver.
Buffalo presents a challenging Week 10 matchup, which could help keep his trade cost reasonable. The bigger goal is acquiring Hall for the fantasy playoff run rather than expecting an immediate monster performance.
Trade target: Try offering a productive RB2 whose current fantasy ranking is being boosted by touchdowns.
Rashee Rice – Kansas City Chiefs WR
BUY Rest-of-Season Upside
Rice has not consistently produced like a top fantasy receiver this season, but his long-term upside remains attractive in Kansas City’s offense.
He continues to work his way back from a knee injury and should have an opportunity to increase his involvement during the second half of the season.
Kansas City travels to Atlanta in Week 10, and the Chiefs remain one of the offenses fantasy managers should want exposure to.
The arrival of Josh Downs adds another receiving option, but Rice can still develop into Patrick Mahomes’ most valuable wide receiver if his health and target volume continue improving.
Trade target: Treat Rice as a WR2 with WR1 upside rather than paying an established WR1 price.
Jordyn Tyson – New Orleans Saints WR
BUY Breakout Candidate
Tyson is also one of our top Week 10 waiver targets, but managers in deeper leagues may already have added him before waivers processed.
He caught four of five targets for 30 yards in his NFL debut despite running only 16 routes. That level of involvement on limited playing time makes him one of the most interesting second-half receivers.
New Orleans hosts Carolina in Week 10, providing Tyson with another opportunity to earn a larger role.
His trade cost may rise quickly if his route participation increases this week.
Trade target: Buy before his playing time reaches a full starter workload.
Travis Kelce – Kansas City Chiefs TE
BUY Reliable Tight End Role
Kelce no longer carries the automatic overall TE1 valuation he once did, which creates a more realistic trade opportunity.
His playing time remains strong, and he continues to run routes on the majority of Kansas City’s passing plays.
At a position where reliable weekly involvement is difficult to find, Kelce’s connection with Patrick Mahomes continues to provide value.
If his current manager is frustrated by inconsistent box-score production, this is a reasonable time to make an offer.
Trade target: Pay a solid TE1 price, not an elite wide receiver or running back price.
Fantasy Football Players to Sell High in Week 10
D’Andre Swift – Chicago Bears RB
SELL Touchdown Regression Risk
Swift has been one of fantasy football’s most productive running backs, but his rushing efficiency creates reason for concern.
Through Week 9, he has averaged about 3.7 yards per carry while scoring 10 rushing touchdowns. That touchdown rate has supported his fantasy ranking even when his rushing production has been inefficient.
He has also recorded fewer than four yards per carry in four consecutive games.
Chicago is on bye in Week 10, which gives fantasy managers another reason to explore the market if Swift can return an established rest-of-season RB1.
Sell for: Breece Hall plus another useful piece, or another running back with a safer long-term workload profile.
Drake Maye – New England Patriots QB
SELL HIGH Value Near Its Peak
Maye has been excellent over the last six weeks and delivered another strong fantasy performance against Green Bay.
He threw for 299 yards and three touchdowns in Week 9, although he also threw three interceptions.
The reason to consider selling is not because Maye is suddenly a bad quarterback. It is because his market value has risen into the elite fantasy tier.
New England travels to Detroit in Week 10, which could produce another high-scoring performance. However, the Patriots then have a Week 11 bye and several difficult late-season matchups.
Sell for: A lower-priced QB1 plus a meaningful upgrade at running back or wide receiver.
Nico Collins – Houston Texans WR
SELL Target Competition
Collins remains a talented receiver, but Houston’s passing attack has become increasingly spread across multiple options.
C.J. Stroud threw five touchdowns against the Chargers in Week 9 while completing passes to nine different receivers.
Tank Dell’s return adds another explosive target, and Collins has not consistently received the type of dominant volume fantasy managers expect from an elite WR1.
Houston travels to Cleveland in Week 10. Collins remains startable, but if another manager still values him as a locked-in elite receiver, this is a reasonable selling opportunity.
Sell for: A receiver with stronger weekly target concentration or a high-end running back.
Javonte Williams – Dallas Cowboys RB
SELL HIGH Strong Market Value
Williams remains Dallas’ lead running back and has provided strong fantasy production.
That makes him a sell-high candidate rather than a player fantasy managers need to escape from.
His recent usage remains good, but Tyler Goodson was becoming more involved before suffering a knee injury, and Williams’ current fantasy value creates an opportunity to potentially move into a higher-upside player.
Dallas hosts San Francisco in Week 10.
Sell for: Breece Hall, another high-upside RB, or use Williams as the centerpiece of a package for an elite receiver.
Tucker Kraft – Green Bay Packers TE
SELL Touchdown-Dependent Value
Kraft remains a useful fantasy tight end, but his trade value may be stronger than his underlying passing-game role.
Green Bay has increasingly featured Matthew Golden and Christian Watson in the passing game, leaving Kraft with a smaller target share than several similarly valued tight ends.
That creates more dependence on touchdowns.
If another manager values Kraft as a clear top-seven rest-of-season tight end, moving him for a player with more reliable weekly volume makes sense.
Sell for: Travis Kelce or Tyler Warren if you can make the deal without giving up another important starter.
Fantasy Football Players to Hold in Week 10
Zay Flowers – Baltimore Ravens WR
HOLD Do Not Sell the Dip
Flowers has had a frustrating stretch, but his underlying involvement remains strong.
Recent usage data shows a target share close to 28%, keeping him firmly involved as Baltimore’s primary wide receiver.
Baltimore has also added Jacoby Brissett, giving the offense another experienced quarterback option while Lamar Jackson works toward a return.
The Ravens host the Chargers on Monday night in Week 10.
Action: Hold. Selling after a quiet stretch would likely return less than his rest-of-season ceiling.
George Kittle – San Francisco 49ers TE
HOLD Elite Ceiling Remains
Kittle disappointed fantasy managers in Week 9 with four catches for 58 yards.
His role remains too valuable to sell cheaply. He has continued to play a large percentage of San Francisco’s offensive snaps and remains one of the league’s most explosive tight ends.
Keenan Allen’s arrival adds another target, but Kittle’s position gives him an advantage over almost every fantasy tight end.
San Francisco travels to Dallas in Week 10 in one of the week’s highest-upside offensive matchups.
Action: Hold unless another manager is willing to pay true elite TE value.
George Pickens – Dallas Cowboys WR
HOLD Wait for Better Value
Pickens’ recent usage has been affected by hamstring and shoulder issues, and his snap share fell before he missed Week 9.
That makes this a poor time to sell.
Pickens has already shown a high target ceiling this season, including multiple games with double-digit opportunities.
Dallas hosts San Francisco in Week 10. If Pickens returns and produces, his market value could recover quickly.
Action: Hold through the value dip rather than trading him at a discount.
Quinshon Judkins – Cleveland Browns RB
HOLD Role Has Fallen, Value Has Too
Judkins has seen his fantasy role decline since Dylan Sampson returned.
His recent snap share has dropped below 40%, reducing his receiving opportunities and making him more dependent on early-down rushing work.
That is concerning, but fantasy managers should not automatically sell after his value has already fallen.
Cleveland has favorable running back matchups later in the fantasy season, giving Judkins a potential path back to stronger production.
Action: Hold unless another manager still values him as a clear weekly RB2.
Tyler Warren – Indianapolis Colts TE
HOLD Target Floor Remains Valuable
Warren has not delivered many spike weeks recently, but his usage remains encouraging.
He has received seven targets in five of his last six games, providing the type of volume fantasy managers want from a starting tight end.
Indianapolis hosts Miami in Week 10, giving Warren a reasonable opportunity to turn those targets into a stronger fantasy result.
Action: Hold through Week 10. A big performance could either improve your lineup or create a better selling opportunity next week.
Week 10 Fantasy Football Trade Strategy
Trade for Volume, Not Last Week’s Fantasy Points
The best trade targets are often players whose workload is stronger than their recent fantasy scores.
Look for players whose target share and red-zone opportunities suggest more potential than their recent scoring averages indicate.
Use Touchdowns to Identify Sell-High Candidates
Touchdowns are extremely valuable in fantasy football, but they are also less predictable than touches and targets.
When a player is scoring significantly more touchdowns than his workload would normally produce, it can create an opportunity to sell at a premium.
Do Not Automatically Sell Good Players
A sell-high recommendation does not mean a player is bad.
Drake Maye and Javonte Williams can continue helping fantasy teams. The question is whether another manager is willing to pay more than their likely rest-of-season value.
Take Advantage of Bye-Week Pressure
Chicago, Denver, Philadelphia and Tampa Bay are all off in Week 10.
Managers fighting for a playoff spot may be more willing to trade a player they cannot use this week for immediate lineup help.
Check Your League’s Trade Deadline
Many fantasy leagues close trading during the next several weeks.
If your deadline is approaching, prioritize improving your starting lineup rather than protecting bench depth that may never enter your lineup during the fantasy playoffs.
NFL Week 10 Buy Low, Sell High & Hold FAQs
Who is the best player to buy low before Week 10?
Breece Hall is our preferred Week 10 trade target. He returned from injury with 18 opportunities in Week 9 and controlled 60% of the Jets’ rushing attempts.
Should I trade for Rashee Rice?
Yes, if the price reflects his current WR2-level production rather than his maximum upside. Rice remains an attractive rest-of-season target in Kansas City’s offense.
Should I trade for Jordyn Tyson?
Tyson is an aggressive upside target. He earned five targets on only 16 routes in his NFL debut, and his value could rise quickly if New Orleans expands his playing time.
Should I sell D’Andre Swift?
Swift is worth shopping because his fantasy production has been boosted by a high touchdown total despite inefficient rushing numbers. Do not sell cheaply, but explore whether another manager will pay RB1 value.
Should I sell Drake Maye?
Maye remains a strong fantasy quarterback. The sell recommendation is based on his extremely high current trade value. If you can turn Maye into another QB1 plus a meaningful upgrade at running back or wide receiver, it is worth considering.
Should I hold George Kittle?
Yes. Kittle retains an elite fantasy ceiling at tight end and remains heavily involved in San Francisco’s offense. One quiet performance is not enough reason to sell.
Which teams are on bye in NFL Week 10?
The Chicago Bears, Denver Broncos, Philadelphia Eagles and Tampa Bay Buccaneers are on bye in Week 10.
When should I stop making fantasy football trades?
That depends on your league’s trade deadline. As the fantasy playoffs approach, focus trades on improving your starting lineup and securing players with strong rest-of-season roles.
