Jonathan Taylor could be the first non-quarterback MVP since Adrian Peterson in 2000, and he is +650 to win it.

1. Top-10 Takeaways breaks down NFL Week 10 for fantasy football managers, covering injuries, breakouts, trending players and stashes in a 10-item countdown. 2. Host Pete of Player Profiler delivers the show solo and takes viewer questions in a closing mailbag, including ones about a Monday night football matchup between the Eagles and Packers. 3. The central thesis is that Week 10 reshaped fantasy value, with injuries to Geno Smith, JK Dobbins and Garrett Wilson opening roles for others, and Jonathan Taylor pushing for MVP. 4. Pete says Taylor's 32 carries, 224 yards, three touchdowns and an overtime game winner put him at +650 behind Drake Maye (+275), Matthew Stafford (+300) and Patrick Mahomes (+500), on pace for 2,378 scrimmage yards and 29 touchdowns. 5. Trevion Henderson posted 14 carries, 147 yards, two touchdowns and 28 fantasy points for the Patriots, and Pete credits outside-zone and stretch plays for the result, with Ramondre Stevenson out and Terrell Jennings leaving with a knee injury. 6. Tez Johnson has averaged 15.1 points per game over three weeks with a touchdown in every game and a 74% snap share, though Pete says Chris Godwin, Bucky Irving and Jalen McMillan returning could cause regression. 7. Pete argues Jalen Waddle is a top-12 receiver rest of season, citing WR6 production since Week 5, 16 points per game and a 25% target share with Tyreek Hill out, plus matchups against the Steelers, Bengals and Bucs. 8. Jackson Dart has been evaluated for a concussion four times, taken 75 hits and led quarterbacks with 25 designed runs, and Pete says "the fish rots at the top" in reference to Brian Daboll's firing and Joe Schoen's retention. 9. Pete lists Troy Franklin (15.7 points per game), Aaron Jones (6.9 yards per carry) and Lamar Jackson (21 points per game) as trending up, and Joe Flacco (27.67 points per game) as trending down with Joe Burrow cleared to practice. 10. Fantasy football managers following Week 10 waiver, trade and stash decisions will get the most from this episode.
