NFL
10 Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Targets Heading Into Week 10
Peyton Barber is the top pickup this week. Who else should you target?

Dwayne Allen, TE, Indianapolis Colts

ESPN Ownership: 17.3%
Yahoo Ownership: 32%

After he suffered an ankle sprain and Jack Doyle emerged as a top target for Andrew Luck, Dwayne Allen was forgotten about in most fantasy leagues. His ownership dropped to a season-low 17.3 percent in ESPN leagues in Week 9, but he should be owned in all but the most shallow leagues moving forward.

Allen missed a majority of one game and two full games after injuring his ankle in Week 6 against the Houston Texans. He didn’t put in a full practice until Friday of last week, but he was still able to suit up and play some snaps on Sunday.

He saw just two targets against the Green Bay Packers, but without a setback and another week of practice, he should be in line for his normal workload in Week 10. He’s a favorite target of Luck, and he’s been a true red zone threat during his time in the NFL -- his 13.6 percent career touchdown percentage would be tied for 10th in the NFL this season (for players with at least 20 receptions).

Allen should be picked up to be included as an integral part of your tight end streaming committee.
