    • Picking on the Cleveland Browns once again for fantasy football. Marvin Jones Jr. has been one of the best under-the-radar wide receivers over the past few weeks and that continues into Week 10.

    After a slow start to the 2017 season, Jones has had a resurgent past two games against good teams in Pittsburgh and Green Bay. In both games he has seen 11 targets and turned those targets into 100-plus yards in both contests.

    Detroit Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford is the definition of a gunslinger. He is going to air the ball out and Jones has been the beneficiary recently. Fellow Lions receiver Golden Tate is a good option this week as well for fantasy football, but Jones has a higher ceiling.

    Jones is the big-play receiver in an offense that loves to throw the ball deep. He has averaged over 15 yards per reception in all but two games this season. Now that he is getting consistent targets, he is making those big plays more often for your fantasy teams.

    If you have to try to replace players like Alshon Jeffery or Michael Crabtree who are on bye, Jones is your guy. Cleveland has no one that can match up well with the size and speed combination that Jones possesses.

    Expect big things from him and most of the Detroit offense in Week 10.

    Other options: Antonio Brown (PIT) @ Indianapolis and Sterling Shepard (NYG) @ San Francisco
