3 Bold NFL Predictions for Week 10
Marqise Lee Will Be a Top-5 Wide Receiver
Why This Is Bold: Blake Bortles and the Jacksonville Jaguars have transformed into a run-heavy team with Leonard Fournette in the fold. Despite Lee's strong performance as of late, he's still just the 39th best receiver in fantasy this season.
Why This Will Happen: Lee has taken over as the top receiving option on the Jaguars in Allen Robinson's absence this season. Lee actually ranks 10th in the NFL in market share of air yards, indicating that his targets have been high-value downfield looks.
Their opponent this week, the Los Angeles Chargers, rank 15th in the NFL in Adjusted Defensive Passing NEP per play, which means they're far from a prohibitive matchup. Lee has seen at least 10 targets in two out of his last three games and should be deployed in starting lineups this week.
