Trey McBride or Cade Otton: Who should I start for Fantasy Football Week 10?

Trey McBride and Cade Otton have been among the best overall fantasy football tight ends this year, especially in recent weeks. They have both been elite options, but some managers may be debating which one of them to use in their Week 10 lineups. Here's which one is a better pick.

Trey McBride broke out in fantasy football last season with the Arizona Cardinals, finishing the year ranked as the overall TE9 in season-long scoring. He has taken another step forward this year as he currently ranks as the overall TE4 through the first nine weeks of the season.

His consistency has been impressive as McBride has finished among the top 10 weekly tight ends in five of his eight games this year, including in three of the past four weeks. He will carry that momentum in a difficult Week 10 matchup against the New York Jets' elite passing defense.

Cade Otton is having a breakout fantasy football season for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, currently ranking as the overall TE3 this year. He has finished among the top 15 weekly tight ends six times this season, including in each of his past four consecutive games. He has also been targeted at least 10 times in each of his past three games and has finished as the TE5 or better in all three of them.

Otton has clearly benefited from the absence of Mike Evans and Chris Godwin, who have both been out with injuries. He will look to continue being the top passing target for Baker Mayfield when they face off against a tough San Francisco 49ers defense this week.

Sportskeeda's Who Should I Start tool

Trey McBride is the recommended tight end to use in Week 10 fantasy football lineups over Cade Otton. Despite Otton's extremely impressive run in recent weeks, McBride's consistent production across the entire season so far is one of the reasons why he is the preferred pick.

Sportskeeda's Who Should I Start tool predicts that McBride will score two additional fantasy points than Otton in PPR scoring formats this week. His higher projections in receptions and yardage make up for him being less likely to score a touchdown, making him the better pick for fantasy lineups.
