It is getting harder to pick guys to drop, especially for our 2026 Fantasy Football players to drop Week 10. As I say every week in this article, take these… The post 2026 Fantasy Football Players to Drop Week 10 appeared first on Fantasy Six Pack - F6P .

Steelers Stock Watch 2026 – WR Michael Pittman Jr.

The Steelers Depot notes that WR Michael Pittman Jr.'s stock value rises despite missing most of the season with a lingering foot injury. While the team hasn't confirmed his return this week, optimism remains as he becomes eligible to come off IR, potentially boosting the Steelers' receiving corps.

Turnovers Don’t Win Games, Points Do (And Always Will)

Joe, a Bucs fan, argues that NFL teams overly worship defensive-minded head coaches who fixate on turnovers, mistakenly believing they can win games without scoring. He contends that points, not takeaways, are the true measure of victory and warns against letting turnover obsession dictate offensive strategy.

Steelers’ 6-2 Start Offers Encouraging History, but Also a Warning

The Steelers emerge from a bye week on a four‑game win streak, sitting 6‑2 and sparking a look at past teams with the same start. Historically, 15 of 16 Steelers who opened 6‑2 made the playoffs, but only half advanced past the first round, and just six finished with 12+ wins. Recent history—most notably the 2024 squad that fell 2‑5 to end 10‑7 and lost 28‑14 to the Ravens in the Wild Card—shows a hot start isn’t a guarantee. With games ahead against Denver, Jacksonville and two more Ravens matchups, Pittsburgh aims to finally break its post‑season win drought that’s persisted since 2016.

Bengals Tuesday Trenches: Super in Spain, SNF and more

The Bengals extended their winning streak to four, beating the Atlanta Falcons 34-17 at Madrid’s Santiago Bernabéu and improving to 6-2 alongside the Steelers. Joe Burrow threw for 271 yards and three touchdowns—two to Tee Higgins and a deep strike to Ja’Marr Chase—while the line limited Atlanta’s 18‑sack threat to just two sacks. Chase’s 220 yards after catch and a season‑long 19‑yard run by Chase Brown highlighted the balanced attack, though the defense still struggled to generate sacks. With the Steelers looming in a potential AFC North showdown and the trade deadline looming, Cincinnati’s front office faces pivotal decisions before the division‑deciding Week 11 clash.

New York Jets News: Decision Time on NFL Trade Deadline Day

The New York Jets face a crucial trade‑deadline decision on November 10 as they sit 2‑7 under GM Darren Mougey. With veteran safety Andre Cisco already dealt for a future pick, the focus shifts to whether to move talent like Will McDonald or Breece Hall before a likely coaching change. Head coach Aaron Glenn suggests standing pat, but his tenure is uncertain. Fans are watching for potential moves involving the Indianapolis Colts that could sweeten a 2027 first‑round pick, while speculation swirls around Geno Smith and other roster tweaks.

Tennessee Titans news: How many more deals are coming?

The Tennessee Titans are gearing up for the NFL trade deadline, having already dealt defensive tackle Jeffery Simmons to the Chicago Bears after a near‑trade with the New York Giants. General manager Mike Borgonzi hints the team could become a major seller, possibly moving linebackers like Anthony Hill Jr. to reshape the defense. The article links to related pieces on the Titans' linebacker upgrade, the Simmons trade rationale, and a league‑wide trade tracker, while noting the Jaguars' Super Bowl push. Fans are invited to weigh in on the upcoming moves.

Discussion: What is your dream trade deadline move for the Detroit Lions?

As the NFL trade deadline looms on Tuesday, the Detroit Lions face their last chance to upgrade a solid roster that's currently sitting in the NFC's fifth seed. While the Lions have already added safety Andre Cisco, the blog’s author dreams of acquiring Eagles linebacker Zack Baun—a versatile defender who excels in coverage, pass rush (nine sacks since 2024), and run stopping. Baun’s contract is team‑friendly, with a prorated $1.215 million salary and a $14.4 million 2027 option, meaning Detroit would likely need to give up a second‑round pick or similar draft capital. With linebacker uncertainties—including Jack Campbell’s status and injuries to Jimmy Rolder and Devin White—the trade could bolster Detroit’s defense for both 2026 and beyond.

St. Louis Cardinals Center Field Target: Luis Robert Jr

With only 22 days before a possible owner‑player lockout, the St. Louis Cardinals must decide how to upgrade center field for 2027. Current starter Nathan Church posted sub‑average numbers (fWAR 21st, OBP .290, OPS .654) and may not be re‑signed. While a short‑term option like Gold Glove outfielder Steven Kwan is attractive, the Guardians’ front office could demand too steep a price. The article argues the Cardinals should instead target former Orioles outfielder Luis Robert Jr., whose 77.3 mph career‑high bat speed ranks third on the team and suggests untapped power potential. A move to St. Louis could give Robert the fresh start he needs after an injury‑marred stint with the Mets.

Carolina Panthers 2027 NFL Draft Prospect Profile: Trevor Lauck

The Cat Scratch Reader profiles Iowa offensive tackle Trevor Lauck as a potential 2027 NFL Draft pick for the Carolina Panthers. A 6'5", 315‑lb three‑time all‑state athlete, Lauck earned a four‑star rating and became Iowa's starting left tackle in 2025, allowing zero sacks and just six pressures that season. This year he’s started nine games, surrendering only five pressures, one sack, and posting an 80.7 PFF grade. Strengths include refined technique, strong hand placement, and coachability, while his average foot speed and lack of elite length raise concerns for outside protection. The article suggests he could be a solid, if not elite, blind‑side blocker for a Panthers line needing depth.

6 potential Patriots targets ahead of the NFL trade deadline

With the NFL trade deadline looming at 4 p.m. ET on Nov. 10, the 5‑4 Patriots are scouting six potential add‑ons despite a recent loss and limited cap space after trading their 2028 first‑rounder. Defensive interior targets include DT Roy Lopez, a 29‑year‑old run‑stopper under contract through 2027, and DT Dalvin Tomlinson, a 32‑year‑old former Cleveland player available for roughly $1.5 M from the Chargers. Edge options feature former first‑rounder Zaven Collins and 25‑year‑old Nolan Smith, both in final‑year deals. Cornerback Jonathan Jones is also listed to bolster a secondary hit by injuries. The article weighs cost, contract length, and fit as New England weighs depth versus future draft capital.

Cowboys news: Dallas will be missing a starter, role players due to injury

After a 31‑24 win at Indianapolis, the Dallas Cowboys head into Week 10 against the 7‑1 49ers with several key injuries. Starting tight end Jake Ferguson and running back Tyler Goodson are ruled out for multiple weeks, while backup PJ Locke also misses the game. The team’s depth at RB is thin after Goodson’s knee issue, and the defense will need to step up without these starters. Coach Brian Schottenheimer emphasizes a “busy week in the training room,” as Dallas tries to maintain its defensive stops and improve offensive production before the San Francisco matchup.

Gameday 19: Florida Panthers at Columbus Blue Jackets

The Florida Panthers (9‑7‑2, 20 points) wrap up a three‑game road swing against the Columbus Blue Jackets (7‑8‑0, 14 points) tonight at Nationwide Arena. After back‑to‑back losses—a 4‑3 defeat to Washington and a 4‑1 loss to Boston—the Panthers aim to rebound, having mustered 41 shots in the Bruins game. This is the second Panthers‑Blue Jackets matchup of the season, offering Columbus a chance to capitalize on Florida’s recent slump.

“I’m Not Gonna Cash My Check”: Steve Young Left 16 Paychecks Worth Millions Sitting in a Drawer Before Reluctantly Giving In for 49ers Audit

Former 49ers quarterback Steve Young admits he let 16 paychecks—estimated at about $4 million—collect dust in a drawer while he was benched, refusing to cash them out of pride. The unpaid checks resurfaced only after the team’s general manager, Carmen Policy, flagged a tax issue, prompting Young to retrieve the slips from teammate Harris Barton’s apartment. Young later reflected on the incident during an In Depth interview with Graham Bensinger, noting his off‑season law school pursuits and the irony given his post‑NFL private‑equity career. The story highlights Young’s early struggles behind Joe Montana, his 1994 Super Bowl win, two MVPs, and a later successful business life.
