Fantasy Football Style Guide Week 11

Jack Meador, Hayden Krupa, and Jacob Vogel

Boom

Lamar Jackson – QB – Baltimore Ravens

Coming off of a week 10 bye, Lamar Jackson is averaging a hefty 21.8 fantasy points per game this season with a high of 42.62 points. Jackson is ranked fourth among all fantasy quarterbacks by ESPN, and plays a weak pass defense this week at home vs the Carolina Panthers.  Look for a potential boom.

 

 

 

Tee Higgins – WR – Cincinnati Bengals

With the injury of Ja’Marr Chase, Higgins has been promoted to WR1. While only providing a modest 13.0 points against Carolina in week 9, Higgins comes off his bye rested and healthy for week 11 against a poor Pittsburgh Steelers defense. The Steelers defense has let up the second-most passing touchdowns in the NFL.  Look for a Tee Higgins boom in week 11.

 

 

Waiver Wire:

Kadarius Toney – WR – Kansas City Chiefs

Mahomes and the Chiefs have been in desperate need of receiving help this season and they may have finally got it with Toney. Putting up 19 points in his second week with the Chiefs, Toney caught 4 of 5 targets for 57 yards and a touchdown. The Chiefs face the injury ridden Chargers secondary this week, and with Toney rostered in only 47.5% of leagues, he should be on your waiver radar.

 

 

Darius Slayton – WR – New York Giants

Slayton, rostered only in 4.6 % of leagues, has been on a hot streak as of late. Over his past 3 games, he has put up point totals of 14.8, 11.6, and 18.5 with a total of 11 catches on 16 targets for 219 yards and 2 touchdowns over this span. Slayton and the Giants take on the 32nd ranked Lions defense at home this week setting him up perfectly for another big performance.

 

 

Bust:

Alvin Kmara – RB – New Orleans Saints

Coming off a weak performance against the Pittsburgh Steelers, running back Alvin Kamara looks to bounce back this week. Kamara is facing the Los Angeles Rams this Sunday, who have held opposing running backs to an average of 96.1 yards. This season, Kamara has been boom or bust by averaging just 16.7 points. Don’t count on Kamara producing much this week.

 

DJ Moore – WR – Carolina Panthers

After a few frustrating weeks, fantasy managers hope that DJ Moore is going to turn it around. Except Moore is facing off against the Baltimore Ravens and is going to have Baker Mayfield throwing him the ball. In games that Baker has played, Moore has tallied just 8, 13.3, 2.5, 12.1, 10,7, and 4.4 fantasy points. With these trends, and the Ravens strong defense, lower your expectations for Moore this week.
