Broncos and Rams are on byes for Week 11
Daniel Jones (ESPN 33% Yahoo 30%)
Coming off a bye week, the Giants are looking to be a bit healthier when they face the Bucs in week 11. Daniel Jones has cooled off to say the least from the beginning of the season but is definitely in line to put up some numbers. Week 11 presents some tough matchups but Daniel Jones should be able to throw to several fresh weapons and possibly notch a top 12 fantasy QB game.
Mac Jones (ESPN 14% Yahoo 28%)
We all know the Patriots lean on the rushing game and Mac Jones abilities to manage the game but in 4 of the past 7 weeks he has thrown multiple TD passes. Week 10 against the Browns was no different with Jones not having to throw much considering the pace of the game and also threw a career high 3 scores. These next 2 weeks against the Falcons and Titans I could see Jones flirting with top 10 performances. He is the most Intriguing streamer if this next guy misses week 11.
Tua Tagovailoa (ESPN 36% Yahoo 23%)
I have my guys I just don’t like for no particular reason and Tua fits the mold. For fantasy I’ll put my differences to the side despite him facing my New York Jets. The Jets defense has been historically bad for the past 4 weeks and the scoreboard shows it. If Tua can get healthy for this game there is no reason why he shouldn’t light them up like a fucking Xmas tree.
AJ Dillon (ESPN 60% Yahoo 72%)
In the Packers shutout win against the Seahawks, Aaron Jones left the game with an MCL Injury. We are currently waiting to hear the significance of this. If he is forced to miss time, Dillon would instantly become a starter in your fantasy lineups most, if not every week. He was not very efficient overall on the ground but received 23 touches and the only 2 touchdowns of the game. He is owned in well over half of leagues but after Tuesday he should be locked up in basically all of them.
Rhamondre Stevenson (ESPN 10% Yahoo 32%)
All week Stevenson and Harris carries injury designations but ultimately Harris sat and Stevenson was giving the green light and put in the work most of else felt he would. 20 carries 100 yards and 2 TDs against the browns, who we all know has been solid against the running game. Concussions are tricky in the NFL today so Harris could continue to miss more time. Even if he doesn’t, Stevenson has been carving up a workload for himself.
Eno Benjamin (ESPN 7% Yahoo 18%)
With Edmonds on the IR, we thought Benjamin was poised for a more significant role then we saw Sunday. He was handed just 6 carries which really depletes his value. Conner has a history of injuries so so won’t expect the Cardinals to use Conner as a bell cow type of back. Deeper leagues I’m still looking at Eno on my bench, but clearly after I put in claims for all the studs.
D’Onta Foreman (ESPN 2% Yahoo 3%)
This Titans rushing situation is a mess but Foreman this week had a hold on the lead back spot. 11 carries on just 30 yards but he did have his presence felt in the passing game with close to 50 yards on 2 catches. I really lack faith in anything that has to do with the Titans running the ball but Foreman is another guy that can give you some depth in case things get ugly with your bye weeks/injuries.
Jordan Howard (ESPN 37% Yahoo 49%) Boston Scott (ESPN 36% Yahoo 32%)
Howard failed to record a TD like he did his first 2 games but he had his most efficient running day on paper. We must keep an eye on Sanders who is eligible to return Week 11, even though there is the possibility he’s out another game. The same goes for Boston Scott who was just as efficient, if not better then Howard on the day.
Devonta Freeman (ESPN 44% Yahoo 58%)
Freeman who has been the main RB for the past few weeks failed to make much noise against the Dolphins on TNF. Despite that he still had 11 carries and 4 Targets. Freeman is a tricky player to add this week as Murray could be back week 11. Will Murray outpace Freeman like he did earlier this season? It is possible which is why Ravens RBs have been tough to start. The good news is even if Murray returns, Freeman will still see the field as they have continuously have gone with a RBBC approach.
Rashod Bateman (ESPN 33% Yahoo 50%)
Bateman continues to be on this list because he is still not owned in enough of leagues. The rookie WR has 4 straight games with 6+ targets as well as 8 in each of the last 2 games. Lamar building chemistry with the rookie who missed the first month and a half of the season. Week 11 Bateman takes on the Bears.
Jamal Agnew (ESPN 8% Yahoo 9%)
I really hate recommending any Jaguars player but let’s throw Agnews mix if you are desperate player. Desperation times call for desperate measures and Agnew may just be a fit on your deeper leagues. He was targeted 5 times and caught none of those passes but did have 3 carries on close to 80 rushing yards. It was a role that Shenault owners like to see as he was used all over the field.
Marcus Johnson (ESPN 0% Yahoo 0%)
Johnson stepped in place for Julio who landed on the IR and made a bigger impact then Julio has all season. 5 catches and 100 yards on the day. One of his catches was a 50 yard haul on a slant route where he showcased his skill set. With no Henry/Julio and AJ Browns constant inconsistencies, Tanny will continue to need all the help he can get. Johnson is an intriguing start this week against the Texans at home.
Michael Gallup (ESPN 51% Yahoo 53%)
It was great to see Gallup finally take the field this year. For weeks I have been telling people to add my guy before his return and the proof was in the pudding. He had just 3 catches on 40 yards with 5 targets but with all things considered as he was on a limited snap count he played well. A lot of mouths to feed in Dallas but Gallup has flex consideration for multiple weeks moving forward.
Van Jefferson (ESPN 36% Yahoo 57%)
Writing this Monday morning so clearly the Rams have not played yet. I have slightly bought into the OBJ hype. We clearly won’t see Numbers like he had with the Giants but he should be in line for 6-8 targets each week. With that said Jefferson could be the WR 2 in LA. He clearly has worked well with Stafford and may take advantage more then anyone after the Woods injury. He is worthy of a bench spot for now in your 12 team formats.
Will Fuller (ESPN 35% Yahoo 25%)
Fuller is one of the most talented wideouts in the league, there is no denying it. There is also no denying that he is as brittle as glass. With that said if he does play, how can you not start him against the Jets who would probably give up 30+ to a high school team.
Kendrick Bourne (ESPN 3% Yahoo 7%)
Bourne has quietly been a contributor in fantasy for some weeks now. In 4 of the last 8 games Bourne has notched at least 14 points and 3 TDs in that period. The next 2 weeks he could find himself in your flex spot against the Falcons and the Titans.
Dan Arnold (ESPN 26% Yahoo 26%)
I know earlier I said I hate recommending Jag players but Arnold is a slight exception. He has been a reliable option for Lawrence as he’s accumulated at least 7 targets in 4 of the past 5 weeks. In those 4 games he’s had at least 4 catches and 60 yards which labels him a safe play. With Fant and Higbee on bye weeks, Arnold might be the perfect streaming option for you.
Tyler Conklin (ESPN 40% Yahoo 30%)
The Conklin window may be closing sooner then you think. His name has been brought up on several waiver wire reports the past few weeks and against the Chargers he scored 2 TDs. The Packers have been playing well on defense but are prone to giving up some plays to the position. Another streaming option for you bitches
