Week 10 WR rankings and WR tiers: Ian Hartitz ranks his top 60 wide receivers for Week 10 of fantasy football (with the Bears, Broncos, Eagles and Buccaneers on bye) and sorts them into five tiers. Jaxon Smith-Njigba is the WR1, DJ Moore is the WR11, DeMario Douglas is the WR20 and Adonai Mitchell is the WR26, while new Chief Josh Downs and new 49er Keenan Allen debut in tier 4. After each of the first four tiers Ian stops for a bigger question about the position: which top cornerbacks could shadow a number one receiver, the best game environments, the best and worst upcoming schedules, and which defenses are better against the slot or outside receivers.

TIER 1: THE BIG 12
Jaxon Smith-Njigba, CeeDee Lamb, Ja'Marr Chase, Amon-Ra St. Brown, Justin Jefferson, Tee Higgins, Christian Watson, Matthew Golden, Malik Nabers, Chris Olave, DJ Moore, Nico Collins.
Key question: which top cornerbacks could we actually expect to shadow their opponent's number one receiver? Three matchups he expects (DK Metcalf vs. DJ Turner, Amon-Ra St. Brown vs. Christian Gonzalez, Carnell Tate vs. Travis Hunter) and nine he does not.

TIER 2: UPSIDE WR2S
Tetairoa McMillan, Zay Flowers, Drake London, Parker Washington, Garrett Wilson, Rashee Rice, Jameson Williams, DeMario Douglas, Jalen Coker, Carnell Tate, DK Metcalf, Ryan Flournoy.
Key question: what are the best game environments this week? Vegas implied points against the PPR points the defense allows to wide receivers: the Jaguars, Lions and 49ers lead.

TIER 3: BOOM-OR-BUST WR3S
Stefon Diggs, Adonai Mitchell, KC Concepcion Jr., Denzel Boston, Mack Hollins, Keon Coleman, Khalil Shakir, Ladd McConkey, Germie Bernard, Tre Tucker, Jordyn Tyson, Antonio Williams.
Key question: who has the best and worst upcoming schedules at the position, for the rest of the season and the fantasy playoffs? The Jaguars have the best remaining schedule and the best playoff stretch; the Panthers, Bills, Rams, 49ers and Chargers have the worst.

TIER 4: SAYING THERE'S A CHANCE
Jakobi Meyers, Tank Dell, Jordan Addison, Devaughn Vele, Wan'Dale Robinson, Caleb Douglas, Malik Washington, Josh Downs, Keenan Allen, Jordan Watkins, Demarcus Robinson, Konata Mumpfield, Tutu Atwell.
Key question: have any defenses been significantly better against slot or outside receivers? The Bengals rank 31st against the slot and 2nd against receivers out wide.

TIER 5: GOOD LUCK, MY FRIEND
Xavier Hutchinson, Kayshon Boutte, Van Jefferson, Malachi Fields, Darnell Mooney, Jahan Dotson, Savion Williams, Ashton Dulin, Brian Thomas Jr., Reggie Virgil, Devin Duvernay.
