MIAMI, Nov. 8 (UPI) — JuJu Smith-Schuster and Brandon Aiyuk are among my must-start wide receivers for Week 10 of the 2022 fantasy football season. Each of my must-start pass catchers ranks inside the top 42 of my rankings, which means they should be in lineups for leagues with at least 14 teams that can start up to three wide receivers.

Tyreek Hill is the top player in my overall Top 50 wide receiver rankings for Week 9. A.J. Brown, Cooper Kupp, Justin Jefferson and Amari Cooper also are in my Top 5.
Chris Olave, Mike Evans, DeAndre Hopkins, Stefon Diggs and Smith-Schuster are among my Top 10 options and should be in every starting lineup.
Tee Higgins, Tyler Boyd, Jakobi Meyers, DeVante Parker, Devin Duvernay, Garrett Wilson and Corey Davis are among the wide receivers who should be out of fantasy football lineups due to injuries and/or Week 10 byes for the Cincinnati Bengals, New England Patriots, Baltimore Ravens and New York Jets.

Tyreek Hill
Hill leads the NFL with 122.7 receiving yards per game. The Miami Dolphins star pass catcher also ranks third in fantasy points per game among wide receivers.
Hill averaged an absurd 132 receiving yards per game over his last six appearances. He totaled 19 catches for 331 yards and a score over his last two games.
Hill is an elite, must-start WR1 every week, but I expect one of his best games of the season when the Dolphins host the Cleveland Browns on Sunday in Miami Gardens, Fla.
The Browns were on bye in Week 9, but allowed at least two passing scores to quarterbacks in two of their last three games. Look for Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa to throw at least three touchdowns in this matchup, with one going to Hill.
Hill, who ranks second in the NFL with 11.1 targets per game and leads the league with 100 total targets, should draw at least 12 looks in this matchup. I expect him to haul in at least eight catches for 150 yards and a score. He is my No. 1 play.

Amari Cooper
Cooper was the No. 13 wide receiver in fantasy football over the past four weeks, in terms of points per game. The Cleveland Browns veteran went off for 131 yards and a score on five catches in Week 8, ahead of a Week 9 bye. He totaled at least 10 targets in four of his last seven games.
I expect the Browns to fall behind in this matchup and be forced to throw. That should lead to another 10 targets for Cooper. The Dolphins allow the ninth-most fantasy points per game to wide receivers. They also allowed the ninth-most receiving yards per game to wide receivers.
Cooper is my No. 5 option. Look for at least 80 yards and a score from the veteran pass catcher.
JuJu Smith-Schuster
Smith-Schuster averaged the fifth-most fantasy points per game among wide receivers over the last four weeks. He hauled in a season-high 10 catches for 88 yards in Week 9.
Smith-Schuster is the second-most targeted Chiefs pass catcher this season, trailing only tight end Travis Kelce. His 12 targets in Week 9 ranked fourth in the NFL.

This week, the Chiefs will face the Jacksonville Jaguars. The Jaguars allow the 10th-most fantasy points per game to wide receivers. They also allowed the third-most receiving touchdowns (11) to the position through nine weeks.
Smith-Schuster is my No. 10 option this week and can be plugged in as a WR1 due to this great matchup.
Brandon Aiyuk
Aiyuk ranks ninth among wide receivers in fantasy points per game over the last four weeks. The veteran pass catcher leads the San Francisco 49ers in targets (55), receptions (38), receiving yards (483) and touchdown catches (4) through nine weeks.
Aiyuk averaged 82 yards and a touchdown over his last three games. He also drew 28 targets over that span. This week, the 49ers will face the Los Angeles Chargers.
The Chargers allowed the sixth-most receiving touchdowns per game (1.1) to wide receivers through nine weeks. Look for the Chargers defense to struggle against this very talented 49ers offense. I expect Aiyuk to log another 10 targets for at least eight catches and 100 yards.

He is my No. 14 option and can be plugged in as a low-end WR1/high-end WR2.
Christian Kirk
Kirk is my No. 26 play this week and can be used as a low-end WR2/high-end WR3. The Jaguars pass catcher was a Top 20 fantasy football wide receiver over the last four weeks. He ranks No. 18 this season in terms of fantasy points per game.
Kirk scored five touchdowns through his first nine games. He also scored in two of his last four appearances. Kirk hauled in a season-high eight catches for 76 yards and a score in Week 9. He averaged 8.7 targets per game over his last three appearances.
The Jaguars also will face a Chiefs defense that allowed the eighth-most receiving yards per game to wide receivers through nine weeks. The Chiefs also tied for allowing the second-most receiving touchdowns per game (1.3) to the position.
Kirk should log at least six catches for 75 yards. He could work his way into WR1 territory if he reaches the end zone.
