Week 10 Defensive Line and QB Matchup Rankings

The Dolphins, Eagles, Chiefs, and Rams are on bye, so three very good fantasy quarterbacks will be missing.

Who should you start on defensive line on your IDP fantasy football team and at QB on any team? Here’s my Week 10 playbook for fantasy football.

The Dolphins, Eagles, Chiefs, and Rams are on bye, so three very good fantasy quarterbacks will be missing.

So who should you start if your ordinary QB is on bye or injured? Geno Smith and Jared Goff have two of the top-four fantasy matchups of the week, and they might be available on your waiver wire. (And if C.J. Stroud is on the waiver wire, you should pick him up regardless of who your starting QB is.)

Now onto the defensive line matchup rankings, and keep scrolling for the full QB rankings.

Micah Parsons and the Cowboys have the best defensive line matchup of the week. As usual, the Giants and the Commanders are two of the worst offensive lines, so their opponents are top IDP starts.

The Seahawks’ edge rusher Boye Mafe, who has made a single sack in each of his past six games, has the second-best matchup of the week, and he is likely available as a free agent.

The Buffalo Bills, who have the highest sack rate of all teams playing this week, have multiple defensive linemen with 5+ sacks who might be available as a fantasy free agent. Consider adding Gary Rousseau, Leonard Floyd, A.J. Epenesa, Von Miller, or Ed Oliver for their matchup against the Broncos, who are allowing sacks at the No. 5-highest rate.
