Tucker Kraft's fantasy role in Week 10
Tucker Kraft goes into Week 10 of the 2026 season as a every-week lineup piece at TE for the GB. He is rostered in 92% of leagues and actually started in 63% of them, and we rank him TE9 on our own weekly board at 4.8 projected points.
Roster rates are steady week over week, so his role looks settled rather than in flux.
No injury designation to work around right now, which keeps his projection honest.
Week 10 matchup breakdown
The matchup: vs MIN. Our Pepper Meter heat rating for this spot is 1 out of 5, which is how we grade the combination of role, projection and opponent difficulty.
Against a typical starting TE baseline of 7 points, his 4.8-point projection is 2.2 points short. That gap is the whole start/sit argument in one number.
How to play it
Sit Tucker Kraft in Week 10 if you have a real alternative — 4.8 projected points lands 2.2 under the TE starter line.
If you are deciding between him and another TE, compare projections first, then lean on the Pepper Meter heat rating as the tiebreaker.
Sally's take
Peppers & Picks ranks Tucker Kraft (GB TE), our TE9 this week for Week 10 of the 2026 NFL season vs MIN, projecting 4.8 projected points with a mild Pepper Meter rating. Sally's honest about it: 2.2 points under the starter line isn't the ceiling she chases. He grades 31% below the average weekly TE number, which is a floor problem more than a ceiling one. MIN is the opponent, and that's the part of this I'm least worried about. Mild on the Pepper Meter is generous, honestly.
Tina's take
Peppers & Picks ranks Tucker Kraft (GB TE), our TE9 this week for Week 10 of the 2026 NFL season vs MIN, projecting 4.8 projected points with a mild Pepper Meter rating. Tina calls it a floor problem: 2.2 points under the starter line is a lot of risk for a lineup spot. At home against MIN, I expect the game to stay competitive enough that his usage holds. He's still in 63% of lineups at 92% rostered, which is exactly the trap I'm trying to talk you out of. Tina keeps him at Mild until the usage says otherwise.
