Time again for the Week 10 Fantasy Football Power Rankings, there are a ton of tough matchups this week and its going to be tough to pick out the diamonds in the rough as well as have the discipline to recognize a bad matchup and perhaps bench a starter, but lets take a look and see if I can spread some light on the subject.

1 Tony Romo Cowboys @NYG
2 Drew Brees Saints STL

25 Alex Smith 49ers @SEA
26 Vinny Testaverde Panthers ATL
27 Quinn Gray Jaguars @TEN
28 Brooks Bollinger Vikings @GB
I’m not sure why Romo is ranked #1, (probably because Brady is on a bye week) I think he struggles this week agianst the harrassment of the Giants D. Derek Anderson is going to get is clock cleaned against Pittsburgh. Griese should have a decent day against Oakland, and unless you haven’t already benched him, don’t count on Phillip Rivers to do anything spectacular against Indy. Sleeper pick is Marc bulger finally getting a win at New Orleans, hes due!

49 Ladell Betts Redskins PHI

Both Jamal Lewis and Willie Parker should strongly be considered bench material this week, this is going to be an air attack matchup. DeShaun Foster is a lock for big points against the shabby Atlanta D. Cedric Benson will finally produce against the sub par Raiders run D. Marshawn Lynch owners should not start getting excited, Miami D is old but they been rested and they desperatly need to establish some defensive presense. Stephen Jackson is a game time decision, but even if he were healthy I don’t like him against the stingy NO D.

49 Roydell Williams Titans JAC
50 Joe Jurevicius Browns @PIT
The Detroit WR’s have steadily dropped in the rankings and this is due in part to Kitna being conservative, I think all this changes this week, I am look for big numbers out of Calvin Johnson and Roy Williams. Tory Holt’s worth has jumped on the preminition that Bulger is getting a W this week and hes going to need every bit of Holt to get it done. Patrick Crayton didn’t get a single catch last week and I think he will continue to disappoint owners. Boldin is healthy and should get back on track this week, IF Kurt Warner is playing. Steve Smiff could be the Panthers knight is shining armor if good ol’ Vinny gets the start which is looking more and more like a reality. Bobby Engram should be ranked higher as Seattle only knows how to pass and San Fran’s secondary is proving to be more useless every week. And finally, TO is going to be shut down, I know it hurts you owners to hear this, but sometimes the truth hurts.

I think the rankings pretty much speak for themselves, I haven’t seen too many outstanding performances by sleepers this year and this weeks matchups give me no reason to believe otherwise.

25 Joe Nedney 49ers @SEA
26 Jeff Wilkins Rams @NO
27 Dave Rayner Chiefs DEN
28 John Carney Jaguars @TEN
Matt Stover is ranked #1 this week because of the inability of the Ravens O to find the endzone, he’s all they got! Phil Dawson should be a good play especially when you condiser the Pittsburgh D in the redzone.

26 San Francisco 49ers @SEA
27 Cleveland Browns @PIT
28 St. Louis Rams @NO
The Colts D should get a little more credit than this ranking is giving as well as the Giants for sure. I really think they shut down the Cowboys this week. Jacksonville makes me nervous, Drew Brees picked them apart. The Saints D is a hoax! It is St. Louis’ turn to win and Bulger is going to eat them up. The Seahawks will no doubt demolish the 49ers again much the way they did the first time they met, I think the D scored something like 28 points!
