This article will focus on the best value play at each position using DraftKings’ pricing for the Sunday 1 p.m. slate. We will provide one cheap option at every position based on matchups and game theory from top to bottom. Now that we’ve done the housekeeping, let’s get into Week 10.

Quarterback: Geno Smith, Seattle Seahawks ($5,800)
He had a terrible outing last week against the Ravens, but Smith has a great matchup against the Commanders’ 31st-ranked defense against the QB position this week. This game could have some fantasy goodness, as has this game with the fourth highest-projected total on the slate. Smith can be stacked with D.K. Metcalf and Kenneth Walker.

Running Back: Najee Harris, Pittsburgh Steelers ($4,900)
Another player who has disappointed fantasy managers this season, Harris has a decent matchup this week against the Packers’ 24th-ranked defense against the RB position. He is also averaging more than 13 fantasy points per game over the last three games. While he isn’t the RB1 he once was, his price tag reflects that, so Harris is a great value play this week.

Wide Receiver: Rondale Moore, Arizona Cardinals ($3,000)
Moore is excited to see QB Kyler Murray return to the starting lineup. Moore saw a lot of targets last season when Murray was at QB, and Kyler is just a better quarterback than either Joshua Dobbs or Clayton Tune. Consider Moore if you need a value play at WR this week.

Tight End: Irv Smith, Cincinnati Bengals ($2,700)
He was a non-factor early in the season, but Smith has seen four targets in each of the last two games. He had his best fantasy game of the season last week with 26 yards and a touchdown, and he also just missed scoring a second TD. Especially with Tee Higgins and potentially Ja’Marr Chase missing this game, he should continue to be involved in the Bengals’ offense.

Defense: Los Angeles Chargers’ DEF ($2,600)
The Chargers pass rush had eight sacks last week against the Jets, and Jared Goff was sacked six times in his last game at home against the Raiders. There’s some risk here as the Lions’ offense is one of the better units in the league, but the Chargers are viable despite being the fourth-cheapest defense on the main slate.
