Washington Redskins

Pierre Garcon (Wide Receiver): New Orleans has given up the 10th most fantasy points to wide receivers all season long. Garcon has been somewhat disappointing this season but this week 10 matchup yield his best fantasy output of the season.

Alfred Morris/Matt Jones/Chris Thompson (Running Backs): With Alfred Morris being phased out of this offense before free agency Matt Jones will likely continue to take the lion's share of the carries. Chris Thompson will only be in on passing downs. Jones has a great matchup as New Orleans currently gives up the eighth most rushing yards in the NFL.

New Orleans Saints

Mark Ingram (Running Back): With the Redskins allowing 100 yard rushers to run wild over them in the last four games Ingram may be in for a huge day. Ingram faced a tough run defense last week however in week 10 his matchup is a lot safer. Ingram should put up at least 80 yards and a touchdown either receiving or rushing. Ingram is a solid RB2 in week 10.

Drew Brees (Quarterback): Brees has been absolutely on fire these last 2 games and will likely continue his roll against the lowly Redskins. Even though they have yet to allow a 300 yard passer, Brees should be the first; he is a solid QB1 this week.

 Brandin Cooks (Wide Receiver): Cooks has been on a fire these past 4 games and to be honest, this is the first week I will be legitimately considering him a viable starting fantasy option. Cooks and Brees look comfortable together finally and Cooks has caught 3 touchdowns in his last two games. Cooks is a solid WR3 with high WR2 upside.
