1. Trey McBride
McBride gets the No. 1 spot for me heading into Week 10.

He has a clash coming against the Rams, who are a pretty tough matchup on paper. McBride finished with 53 yards on seven receptions and nine targets in the team's first meeting, so I still believe in McBride despite the tougher test. Also keep in mind that Carson Beck is the team's starting QB, so temper expectations for McBride.
2. Brock Bowers
Bowers checks in second for me this week. He has a tough test coming against the Seahawks.
I'm skeptical of Bowers after Kirk Cousins was traded away. Fernando Mendoza has a bright future, but he needs to prove it before I can trust in all the other Raiders' offensive playmakers. Temper expectations for Bowers as well this week.
Likely is the No. 3 TE for me in Week 10, but I highly considered him for the top spot.
He has a great matchup coming against the Commanders. Part of the reason behind the Commanders' struggles to slow tight ends is that Likely went off for 94 yards and two touchdowns across 11 receptions and 13 targets in the first meeting between the teams, so Likely is a great option for the coming week.
Kittle slides to the No. 4 fantasy TE spot for Week 10, but is another must-start guy.
Dallas is a pretty average test for him, and despite all the pass-catching and play-making options in San Fran, I still trust Kittle to get his fair share of points every week.
5. Tyler Warren
Warren has a stellar matchup coming in Week 10 against the Dolphins.
He's underwhelmed this season, but could be in store for a massive finish to the year after the team traded away Josh Downs and Keenan Allen. We could see a lot of Warren, beginning on Sunday, so start him confidently in all leagues.
6. Travis Kelce
Kelce has put together a couple of big showings in a row. His Week 10 matchup against Atlanta is pretty average.
KC added Downs at the trade deadline, and he could take away some of Kelce's production in time, but I think the veteran is close to being a must-start in Week 10.
7. Sam LaPorta
LaPorta is usually a pretty high-end option, but he has a tough test coming in Week 10.
He also hasn't delivered a ton over the past three games, so he's not a locked-in starter, despite being in my top 10.
8. Hunter Henry
If you want to gamble on a tight end this week, Henry is my favorite pick.
He has a very good matchup coming against the Lions. Henry should be a big part of the team's passing attack with several wideouts and running backs banged up.
Hockenson is another top-10 TE who has a very tough test coming in Week 10.
He'll be facing the Packers this week. Hockenson is a bit of a safer option, knowing that he scored and had 36 yards over four grabs and five targets against Green Bay back in Week 1, and with Cousins now around to pick up the offense a bit.
10. Harold Fannin
Another top-10 tight end, another brutal fantasy matchup, as Fannin faces Houston.
He's been a good fantasy asset over the past three weeks though, so I have enough faith to start Fannin in most cases.
11. Tucker Kraft
Kraft has the toughest fantasy TE matchup possible in Week 10 against Minnesota.
I'm still OK trying Kraft after he posted 65 yards on three receptions and six targets against the Vikings back in Week 1.
12. Brenton Strange
Strange cooled off a bit last week, but I'd throw that performance out the window, as it was a lopsided game on a short week.
Tennessee is a below-average fantasy test, but nothing too daunting, so I'd be OK starting Strange again in Week 10.
13. Kyle Pitts Sr.
Pitts has two lackluster fantasy outings in a row, but he still checks in 13th for me this week.
He's aided by a pretty favorable matchup against the Chiefs. We'll see if Pitts can deliver for the fantasy owners who trust him with a starting spot.
14. Dalton Kincaid
Kincaid didn't do a ton in the brutal Week 9 test he had against the Vikings.
A better showing could be coming in Week 10 against the Jets. New York is an above-average matchup, so let's see if Kincaid can at least finish here.
15. Chig Okonkwo
I like what Okonkwo has shown of late, but he is also dealing with a hip injury, so I knocked him down a few spots.
The Giants are also a below-average matchup for him, so he's a better deep-league option for Week 10.
16. Darren Waller
Waller broke out in Week 9, catching eight passes for 90 yards and a touchdown. He has a couple of other double-digit performances this season, so he's worth adding and trying in some more leagues in Week 10.
The Saints are also an above-average matchup for him, so Waller is a pretty solid streaming option for those needing tight end help.
17. AJ Barner
Barner didn't produce many yards, but he scored a couple of touchdowns in Week 9 to deliver a good fantasy showing.
Maybe he can do something similar in a favorable matchup against the Raiders in Week 10. That makes him a streaming option for this week as well.
18. Colby Parkinson
The Rams need pass catchers to step up - the problem is that either Parkinson or Tyler Higbee could at tight end. I went with Parkinson for this week.
He had four catches and targets a week ago and had six targets in Weeks 6 and 7. Arizona is a good matchup, so Parkinson is one to consider in deeper leagues.
19. Pat Freiermuth
Freiermuth has been a decent fantasy option this season. He gets a favorable matchup against the Bengals in Week 10.
He tallied 30 yards on two catches and four targets against Cincy back in Week 3, so this feels like the right spot to rank him this week.
20. Mike Gesicki
Gesicki had been a touchdown machine for Cincinnati before last week, scoring in each game between Weeks 3-8 (with a bye week in there).
The matchup against Pittsburgh is ever so slightly below average, but nothing too crazy. He had 37 yards and a touchdown across three grabs and targets against the Steelers back in Week 3. He could be streamed again in hopes of scoring again, but his outlook is pretty low otherwise, so tread carefully.
21. Dalton Schultz
Schultz remains somewhat involved in an ever-changing Houston offense. He has four or more targets in four straight appearances.
Cleveland is an above-average matchup for him, but I still only see him as a deep-league option because of lackluster showings in most weeks this season.
22. Mason Taylor
Taylor did not do much last week, and he only got two targets. He had five or six targets in the three games before that.
A pretty average matchup against the Bills is a chance for Taylor to contribute a little bit again, so he's another deep-league option for Week 10.
23. Eli Raridon
I'm going back to another New England tight end here and hoping he takes advantage of a good matchup against Detroit.
Raridon has four or more targets in three straight games, so there's a little fantasy appeal already, especially if some of the injured Patriots are out again this week.
24. Tommy Tremble
Tremble scored and had 24 yards across four receptions and six targets a week ago, so I'm going to ride the hot hand and try him again.
The Saints being a favorable matchup makes that decision a bit wiser in my eyes.
25. Greg Dulcich
Dulcich has four or more targets in four straight games, which is solid for a TE at this ranking. He just lost his starting QB (Malik Willis) though, so that has him almost outside the top 25.
An above-average matchup against the Colts is a chance for Dulich to score a few fantasy points at least though.
