Fantasy Football Best Pickups Week 10: James White, Jeremy Langford, Brandon Bolden, James Starks, Marcel Reece, Shaun Draughn, Antonio Andrews, Stevie Johnson

The fantasy football Week 10 schedule is here and some free agent pickups off the waiver wire include James White, Brandon Bolden, James Starks, Jeremy Langford, Stevie Johnson, Marcel Reece, Taiwan Jones, Antonio Andrews, Shaun Draughn and David Cobb. Matt Forte remains out with an injury for the Bears, while Malcom Floyd was injured Monday night for the Chargers.

The Patriots are dealing with a season ending injury to Dion Lewis and that opens things up at running back for the team. The Pats have LeGarrette Blount as the likely starter and that leaves Brandon Bolden and James White as options to help replace Lewis. Lewis was the top pass catcher out of the backfield and was the change of pace back for the Pats and ESPN Boston reports that White is the "top candidate" to get more carries with Lewis out. White and Bolden have not been used much this season, but now that Lewis is out, expect an uptick in touches coming up.

Jeremy Langford has stepped in for Matt Forte and with the Bears expecting Forte to be out for another week, Langford is worth starting again for fantasy owners. Langford had a strong game on Monday night, going for over 140 total yards and scoring a TD in the win against the Chargers. Langford had more touches than Ka'Deem Carey and he is clearly the lead back despite not getting the start. Langford finished the game with 72 rushing yards and he caught three balls for 70 yards and had a rushing TD.

Stevie Johnson is all of a sudden the number one receiver for the Chargers, as Keenan Allen is out for the season and Malcom Floyd went down with an injury on Monday night. Johnson had seven catches for 68 yards in the game on Monday and now he will be the top target for Philip Rivers heading out of the bye week (Chargers are off, but Johnson is worth a look for next week).

James Starks has continued to get touches alongside Eddie Lacy and the Packers have been trying to feed the hot hand each week between the two players. Lacy is still a strong fantasy option, but Starks may be worth starting for owners after how much he has been getting the ball in recent weeks. Starks was considered the "lead runner" on Sunday and he had 10 carries for 39 yards and also added six catches for 83 yards and a TD. Starks has been consistent this season and has been averaging a solid 4.3 yards per carry.

Latavius Murray is dealing with a concussion for the Raiders and that makes Marcel Reece and Taiwan Jones options for this week. Reece had 21 yards against the Steelers and could get a boost if Murray is out next week with his injury. Reece adds value in PPR leagues, as he is a solid receiver out of the backfield with 20 catches and three TDs this season. Shaun Draughn is an option from the 49ers until the team has Carlos Hyde and Mike Davis healthy, as he had over 80 total yards and had 20 touches last week for the team.
