Jahmyr Gibbs Top Week 10 Knockout League Pickup

Detroit Lions running back Jahmyr Gibbs is the top Week 10 fantasy football pickup in NFL Knockout leagues after being dropped in 10.1% of leagues — the highest-ranked running back among the 20 most-dropped players following Week 9.

Gibbs scored 13.4 fantasy points against the Miami Dolphins in Week 9, his lowest total this season. The Lions scored 19 points and gained 270 total yards as a team in that game. Gibbs remains first among running backs in fantasy points per game (26.2) and rushing share (77%). He ranks third in snap rate (77%), fourth in target share (17%) and sixth in goal-line carries (7).

Nine teams remain in full-season Knockout leagues. Free agent budget (FAB) resources are shrinking: two in-house leagues report 36% and 41% of collective FAB funds remaining, and eight of 18 managers hold less than 30% of their starting budget.

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen was dropped in 13.1% of leagues and ranks second among quarterbacks in fantasy points per game (25.1). Since the start of 2024, he has more 20-, 25- and 30-point fantasy games than any other quarterback. His recommended FAB bid is 21–40%.

Indianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor was dropped in 11.7% of leagues and ranks fourth among running backs. Trade speculation involving the New England Patriots, Minnesota Vikings or Green Bay Packers supports his upside. His recommended FAB bid is 18–58%.

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver George Pickens and Detroit Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams were dropped in 14.6% and 13.8% of leagues, respectively. Both are No. 2 wide receivers in top-eight passing offenses by yards per game. Their recommended FAB bids are 12–28% and 11–26%.

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba was dropped in 17.2% of leagues — the highest rate among all players — and ranks first overall on the dropped list. Sam Darnold and Drew Lock are both dealing with injuries ahead of Week 10, and the Seahawks have a Week 11 bye. His recommended FAB bid is 24–58%.

Jared Goff (14.8% dropped), Zay Flowers (12.9%), Justin Jefferson (11.1%), Garrett Wilson (12.5%) and Ladd McConkey (10.9%) received lower-recommendation FAB bids due to matchup limitations, inconsistent production or injury concerns.
