Rod Villagomez and Munaf Manji talk NFL Fantasy Football for Week 10. NFL Fantasy Week 10 — Rod Villagomez & Munaf Manji

On Straight Outta Vegas AM, Rod Villagomez and Munaf Manji tackled NFL Fantasy Week 10 with their trademark blend of humor and insight, helping listeners navigate injuries, bye weeks, and late-season playoff pushes. Both noted that 2025’s fantasy season has been one of relentless waiver-wire churn — few “every-week locks” have survived the chaos. With heavy-hitting teams like Cincinnati, Dallas, Kansas City, and Tennessee on bye, depth and creativity became crucial. The pair opened with Thursday Night Football, a Raiders–Broncos matchup featuring Bo Nix’s steady rise and Denver’s surprising 7–2 record. Munaf acknowledged skepticism around the Broncos’ legitimacy but credited Sean Payton’s efficient offense and fierce defense. Both agreed Denver should prevail, with Rod eyeing Brock Bowers’ receiving props after a 12-catch, 127-yard, three-TD explosion in Week 9. They recommended overs on Bowers’ yardage and Bo Nix’s passing touchdowns, while warning that the -9.5 spread favored Denver but carried backdoor risk. Shifting to fantasy strategy, the hosts spotlighted waiver finds: Raiders WR Trey Tucker as a sneaky pickup post-Jacoby Meyers trade, and Denver’s emerging rookie WR Troy Franklin, now seeing nearly 80% of snaps with Marvin Mims sidelined. In the Broncos’ backfield, RJ Harvey’s steady PPR output — three straight games with touchdowns — made him a dependable flex despite J.K. Dobbins’ presence. Munaf also liked Loveland as a Bears tight end streamer after a breakout 118-yard, two-TD game, while Rod shared frustration from benching him last week. They debated running back Monongah’s outlook if DeAndre Swift remained sidelined, with Rod leaning Carolina WR Ted McMillan for stability and Munaf favoring Monongah’s upside versus New York’s soft run defense. Other flex calls included Dalton Schultz over Parker Washington in a Texans–Jaguars tilt due to Schultz’s chemistry with Davis Mills, and Browns TE Harold Fannin Jr. over Purdue RB Tyrone Tracy Jr., citing Fannin’s red-zone role and Cleveland’s lack of receiving depth. They closed with deeper debates — Juwan Jennings vs. Khalil Shakir (edge to Jennings amid 49ers injuries) and backup QB rankings, where both chose Sam Darnold over Daniel Jones, Stafford, and Jacoby Brissett for Week 10. Munaf finished with promo plugs for Pregame’s contests and reminded listeners to use “RUSHING50” for discounted season picks. The show wrapped on optimism: fantasy managers who stayed alert, exploited matchups, and trusted players like Bowers, Franklin, or Harvey could find themselves solidly in the playoff hunt entering Week 11.
