2015 Fantasy Football Mock Draft: Round 10

Scoring: This mock draft is based on standard-scoring fantasy football leagues for the 2015 season only (i.e., not keeper or dynasty leagues). Passing touchdowns are worth four points while rushing and receiving touchdowns are worth six points. In addition, one point is earned per 25 passing yards, 10 rushing yards and 10 receiving yards.

Mock Draft Start Date: Saturday, February 7th
Mock Draft End Date: Sunday, February 15th

Four of our site's contributors — Kevin Hanson, Brendan Donahue, Sean Beazley and Dan Yanotchko — will make picks for three teams of this 12-team mock. The mock will go 10 rounds with no kickers or team defenses selected.

Although this is a slow draft, we will post picks as they occur, along with comments from Kevin Hanson, as opposed to waiting for the entire mock draft to be completed.

More Rounds: 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 | Teams | Positions

Here are Round 10 results:

10.01 - Dan Yanotchko (Team 3): Jason Witten, TE, Dallas Cowboys

Other than his rookie season, Witten's 64 receptions and 703 yards last year set or tied career lows. Witten lacks the upside of some other tight ends that are still on the board, such as Dwayne Allen, but he's a solid low-end TE1 at this point in his career.

10.02 - Kevin Hanson (Team 3): Christine Michael, RB, Seattle Seahawks

While it appears that Marshawn Lynch will play in 2015, there is at least a small chance that he walks away given compressed cartilage in his back that can get worse if he continues to play. If Lynch doesn't play or misses time, my guess is that Michael (over Robert Turbin) would be the biggest beneficiary.

10.03 - Sean Beazley (Team 3): Delanie Walker, TE, Tennessee Titans

Walker set career highs in both receptions (63) and yards (890) and he led the team in both categories last season. Given the team's issues at quarterback last season, Walker could certainly improve upon those numbers in 2015 and he's a solid option for those that wait on tight end.

10.04 - Sean Beazley (Team 2): Brian Quick, WR, St. Louis Rams

After tearing his rotator cuff in Week 8 last season, Quick played just seven games last season and he started the season strong. In the first four games of the year, Quick had a total of 21 receptions for 322 yards and three touchdowns and finished as a top-25 fantasy wide receiver in all four games. Although he had just four catches for 53 yards in his other three games, Quick was on his way to a breakout season. Depending on Quick's recovery and health, that breakout season could come for the former small-school receiver in 2015.

10.05 - Brendan Donahue (Team 3): Marqise Lee, WR, Jacksonville Jaguars

Lee's rookie season was relatively quiet, but he exceeded 50 receiving yards in four of his final six games and averaged 4.0 receptions, 46.83 yards and 7.33 targets per game over that stretch. Lee is the third Jaguars receiver off the board in this mock draft and assuming that Justin Blackmon is reinstated from his indefinite suspension, I would expect both Blackmon and Allen Robinson to be more productive fantasy wide receivers in 2015.

10.06 - Brendan Donahue (Team 2): Terrance West, RB, Cleveland Browns

The frustrating part of owning a Browns running back is the inconsistency in carries. Selected roughly six rounds later than Isaiah Crowell (in this mock), West offers more value -- or stated differently, he's less of a risk to disappoint based on their respective draft slots. In West's final seven games played last season, here are his rush attempts: 26, 5, 14, 7, 15, 5 and 18.



10.07 - Dan Yanotchko (Team 2): Chris Ivory, RB, New York Jets

With CJNoK about to become a free agent, the Jets may have their sights set on C.J. Spiller in free agency, but I like Ivory quite a bit this late in the mock. Ivory gained a career-low 4.1 yards per carry, but he once again rushed for more than 800 yards and he set a career high with six touchdowns. In addition, Ivory finished the year as a top-20 fantasy running back in standard-scoring formats.

10.08 - Dan Yanotchko (Team 1): Knile Davis, RB, Kansas City Chiefs

The best handcuff among fantasy running backs, Davis had some big games when given the opportunity as he finished as a top-eight fantasy running back four times last season. With Jamaal Charles leaving Week 2 early (only two carries) and missing Week 3, Davis had a combined 60 touches for 237 yards from scrimmage and three touchdowns in those two games. In the other games, Davis averaged just 6.92 touches per game but he had double-digit touches in four of those games as well.

10.09 - Kevin Hanson (Team 2): Cody Latimer, WR, Denver Broncos

Three of Denver's top pass-catchers -- Demaryius Thomas, Wes Welker and Julius Thomas -- are set for free agency next month. There is little doubt that Demaryius will be back, but if the Broncos don't re-sign Welker, Latimer should see a big bump in snaps as Emmanuel Sanders could move inside in three-WR sets. Either way, Latimer, their second-round pick last year, has plenty of upside going into year two.

10.10 - Kevin Hanson (Team 1): Justin Hunter, WR, Tennessee Titans

Despite a huge bump in snaps played (82.8 percent in 2014 versus 36.4 percent in 2013), Hunter was a huge disappointment to those that expected a breakout season from the second-year receiver. Missing the final month due to a lacerated spleen, Hunter finished with only 28 catches for 498 yards and three touchdowns in 12 games. Hunter had just 37 yards or less in seven of his 12 games and never had more than four receptions in any game last season. As the WR5 on this team, however, I'd be willing to roll the dice on Hunter's athletic upside.

10.11 - Brendan Donahue (Team 1): Marquess Wilson, WR, Chicago Bears

One of my favorite sleepers last offseason before he broke his clavicle, Wilson had less than 20 receiving yards in all but one of his seven games played last season. There is plenty of upside with Wilson going into 2015, however, and that's especially so if the Bears part ways with Brandon Marshall, which appears to at least be a possibility.

10.12 - Sean Beazley (Team 1): Knowshon Moreno, RB, Miami Dolphins

Moreno's 2014 season was lost to injury although he opened the season with a surprising and impressive 24/134/1 line against the Patriots in Week 1. When he returned from a multi-week elbow injury, Moreno tore his ACL in Week 6 and the free agent-to-be is not expected back in Miami in 2015. It's unclear where the 28-year-old (in July) will play in 2015 and how productive he'll be.
