Smith-Njigba is my top-ranked fantasy wideout for Week 10. He has an above-average matchup coming against the Raiders.
Even with Drew Lock throwing to him, I expect big things out of JSN, and you should too.

Chase gets the No. 2 slot heading into a battle with the Steelers. He went for 98 yards and a score on nine receptions and 12 targets against them back in Week 3.
It's a below-average matchup on paper, but after already delivering against the Steelers, I have no concerns with Chase.
3. CeeDee Lamb
Lamb has a very difficult test coming this week against the 49ers.
He's coming off a monster game and has been pretty good for four straight weeks now. I'm going to keep trusting the high-end fantasy wideout to deliver.
St. Brown has a stellar matchup coming in Week 10 against the Patriots - they are the second-best matchup in the NFL.
With more good showings than great ones of late, I decided to rank St. Brown here at No. 4 instead of any higher. I still expect big things out of him.
5. Malik Nabers
Nabers is a high-level option going into a Week 10 battle against the Commanders. That's an above-average matchup on paper.
He struggled a bit last week, but I see him bouncing back and delivering big in the team's Thursday night game.
6. Chris Olave
Olave has scored in double figures in three straight games, so he remains a high-end fantasy option.
His matchup against the Panthers is ever so slightly below average, but I'd still expect a top-10 finish from Olave.
I'll give Watson the top ranking between the stellar Packers' duo. His Week 10 matchup is a brutal one against Minnesota.
Watson had 147 yards and two scores on six grabs and eight targets against Minnesota back in Week 1, so I'm not very concerned with the matchup.
8. Tee Higgins
Higgins is already the second Cincy wideout in the rankings.
He posted 90 yards and a touchdown over six grabs and seven targets against Pittsburgh earlier this season, so that performance gets him into the top 10 for this week.
Jefferson gets a bump up after the team traded for Kirk Cousins.
His matchup against the Packers is really favorable, and he had his best performance of the season against them back in Week 1, so he needs to be starting in all leagues. Jefferson went for 92 yards and two touchdowns on eight grabs and nine targets.
10. Matthew Golden
Golden gets a top-10 spot as well, despite the tougher fantasy test.
He tallied 95 yards on six receptions and 12 targets in Week 1 against Minnesota and has only improved since, so he's one to keep trusting until further notice.
He has posted double-digit scores in back-to-back games, so he'll look to keep that rolling.
The Saints are an average matchup for him, so you can confidently start McMillan in most leagues for Week 10.
12. Zay Flowers
Flowers gets a fantasy boost after the team acquired Jacoby Brissett.
His matchup against the Chargers is stellar, but I'm tempering expectations a bit and saying he still finishes outside the top 10, although his ceiling is higher than that.
13. Drake London
London got back on track last week, but still didn't produce like an elite fantasy wideout.
His Week 10 matchup against the Chiefs is brutal, but in a pass-heavy game for the Panthers, I see him putting up a big fantasy score.
Washington had his best fantasy outing in three weeks in a lopsided Jacksonville win in Week 9.
He's got the best possible fantasy matchup against the Titans this week. The only thing that might hold him back is a lopsided win again.
15. Nico Collins
Collins scored in Week 9 and posted his best fantasy score in four weeks.
He'll look to keep things rolling despite having a below-average test coming against the Browns. Collins isn't a must-start wideout, but he's pretty close.
16. Rashee Rice
Rice has delivered pretty well in his return to the field for the Chiefs.
His matchup against Atlanta is slightly above average this week, so Rice is a good starting option in my eyes.
17. D.J. Moore
Moore didn't do much last week in a brutal matchup against the Vikings, but I see him bouncing back in Week 10 against the Jets.
It's still a tough matchup on paper, but not nearly as daunting, so I see Moore getting back on track.
18. Jameson Williams
Williams is coming off a dud last week, but had been good in the four games before that.
The stellar matchup against the Patriots means he should be starting in most leagues, and could be in store for another big fantasy outing.
19. George Pickens
He has a hamstring injury that needs monitoring, but if he's out there, he's still a decent fantasy option.
I'd at least temper expectations because of the tough matchup against the Niners though. I see Dallas needing to throw a lot in this game, which bodes well for Lamb and Pickens.
20. Garrett Wilson
Wilson needs to clear concussion protocol before Week 10 - he missed Week 9 with that ailment.
His matchup against the Bills is above average, so Wilson could shine if he's active and makes it through the game unscathed.
21. Denzel Boston
Boston is coming off a pretty good fantasy outing, and has emerged as a solid weekly option at this point.
His matchup against the Texans is very favorable, so I like the idea of starting Boston in all deeper leagues, and a good amount of standard leagues too.
22. Stefon Diggs
Diggs has not broken out the way I expected him to after the Terry McLaurin injury, but he's still my favorite Washington wideout.
His matchup against the Giants is slightly below average, but nothing too daunting, so I'm good with starting Diggs in a lot of leagues.
23. Carnell Tate
Tate hasn't played since Week 7 after an injury and his bye, so his status is one to monitor before Week 9.
His matchup against the Jaguars' new-look defense is slightly above average, and in a game the Titans will need to throw a lot in, I think that sets Tate up pretty well.
24. A.J. Brown or DeMario Douglas
If Brown is active this week, he gets this No. 24 spot. If he's out or even going to be limited, I'd let Douglas have the spot instead.
The matchup against the Lions is stellar, so really, both could deliver, but I'd only trust one of them. We'll see who it ends up being.
25. Deebo Samuel Sr.
He has not played since Week 5 because of an injury, so his status is another one to monitor.
If he's back, I like him to lead the San Francisco wide receivers in a pretty favorable matchup against the Cowboys.
26. Jalen Coker
Coker's production has fallen off the past few weeks, so he's a fading fantasy asset.
The Saints being an average matchup gives me another chance to try him, so we'll see if he can come through.
27. DK Metcalf
Metcalf has not produced in his past two games, but maybe the bye last week got him and the offense back on track.
The Bengals are a slightly below-average matchup, but nothing too daunting. He had 31 yards and a score on three catches and five targets against them back in Week 3, which is enough to give him a top-30 ranking this week.
28. Jakobi Meyers
Meyers is another Jacksonville wideout who makes the top 30 going into that great matchup against the Titans.
With a couple of double-digit outings over the past three weeks, that's enough to convince me to try Meyers in more leagues for Week 10.
29. Germie Bernard
Bernard was not really a factor the last time his team faced the Bengals. Since then, he's emerged as a big part of the team's offense.
The matchup is good enough to try Bernard as a top-30 wideout this week.
30. KC Concepcion
Concepcion has two big outings over his past three games, so he's one to consider this week.
Houston being a favorable matchup makes Concepcion an even more appealing starting option.
