Week 11 brings plenty of enticing options for NFL DFS players and features games with sky-high projected point totals. many powerhouse RBs and WRs facing defenses that are among the worst at defending their position. However, they all come at a high price and will be highly owned, so you'll need to mix in plenty of value picks to differentiate your roster. Last week we went all-in on RBs, paying up for Kareem Hunt and Melvin Gordon, and while Gordon came through, Hunt let us down, thus dooming us despite some nice value hits (Josh Doctson, Redskins D/ST). For our Week 11 NFL DFS picks, we're once again paying up for RBs, but we're also finding some value with stacks from relatively mediocre offenses in favorable matchups. QB There are a lot of quality options. Prescott has one of the best matchups facing the ever so shitty Falcons pass defense. Other top prospects this week would be Marcus Mariota (@ Colts), Manning (vs. Buccaneers), and Joe Flacco (vs. Bengals). RB - Pay up bitches is the name of the game! Leonard Fournette and Dalvin Cook have both gotten through full games, so there is a bit less concern with them moving forward. Now, I'm just wondering if the workload will still be split or if they will see some more action this week. With that said, I can assure you I will have a line up with Cook and Fournette! There are a few really good matchups for some cheaper RB options. Notably, the Ravens and Alex Collins have a solid matchup with the Bengals, while the Raiders and Doug Martin get to take on the stumbling Cardinals run defense. That said, there are some tough matchups that could make start 'em, sit 'em decisions difficult. The Eagles-Saints game will be tough for RBs on both sides of the ball, while the Texans run into a fearsome Redskins attack. Players in those games may get slightly downgraded. So be prepared for some butthole puckering between fantasy players. WR- Week 11 fantasy WR rankings are still fairly strong even with 6 teams on bye. Some potential shootouts between the Rams and Chiefs (in Mexico) and Eagles and saints could prove beneficial for the receivers in that game, and favorable matchups for the Seahawks - Tylor Locket (vs. Packers), Cowboys - Amari Cooper (@ Falcons), Jaguars (vs. Steelers). Possibly the Ravens Josh Brown (vs. Bengals) These relatively mediocre WRs are possible bargains to save some cash for bigger names like OBJ, Thomas or Theilen TE - One of the biggest names to watch this week is Broncos TE Jeff Heuerman. He's becoming one of the top targets in the offense with Demaryius Thomas gone, and he saw 10 catches for 83 yards and a TD before last week's bye, so some may have slept on him. He could be a productive TE1 this week and should certainly be added if you need a bye-week streamer or depth at the position. D/ST - Bears - Steelers - Cards in that order!
