Primetime DFS Domination: Week 11

Lineup recommendations for DraftKings and FanDuel for Week 11 DFS fantasy football primetime slate.

The massive popularity of small DFS slates has propelled us to expand our DFS coverage. I will give you my favorite lineup for the Primetime Slate each week. We will release these as soon as both sites release their pricing.

Recommended Primetime DFS lineups

DK Lineup: QB Justin Herbert ($5.5k), RB Joe Mixon ($8.0k), RB Rico Dowdle ($6.0k), WR Ja’Marr Chase ($8.8k), WR Tank Dell ($6.8k), WR  Quentin Johnston ($5.2k), TE Will Dissly ($3.3k), FLEX Dalton Schultz ($4.0k), DST Dallas Cowboys ($2.4k)

FD Lineup: QB Justin Herbert ($7.3k), RB Joe Mixon ($9.3k), RB Chase Brown ($6.8k), WR Ja’Marr Chase ($9.6k), WR Tank Dell ($7.2k), WR Quentin Johnston ($6.0k), TE Will Dissly ($5.0k), FLEX Gus Edwards ($5.0k), DST Dallas Cowboys ($3.5k)

The pricing essentially locks Justin Herbert in at QB. If you want to use Joe Burrow or C.J. Stroud, you will need to dramatically  pivot down at RB2 or WR3. I don’t particularly trust either Dallas QB, but if Cooper Rush starts, there is a path (albeit a thin one) to a Rush-CeeDee Lamb stack if you go cheaper at WR3.

Joe Mixon should be the RB1. You can opt for two of J.K. Dobbins, Chase Brown, and Rico Dowdle if you want to improve at QB or WR2. Otherwise, choose one of that threesome at RB2. You also can use Gus Edwards, the punt RB2 option, at flex.

Nico Collins (hamstring) and Lamb are the WR1 pivots. Frankly, I don’t love either of them over Ja’Marr Chase. If I were going to use either, I’d put them at WR2 and pinch pennies elsewhere. Tee Higgins is the other WR2 pivot if you want to go QB-plus-two with Burrow and Chase. You can use either Ladd McConkey or Joshua Palmer over Quinton Johnston at WR3. The punt WR options are Jalen Tolbert, Xavier Hutchinson, Andrei IosivasJohn Metchie, and Robert Woods. The Texans’ backups get a boost in their replacement value if Collins remains out.

I don’t see a path to fitting Jake Ferguson (illness) under the cap. That said, if he ends up out because of his illness, you could use Luke Schoonmaker as a punt option here or at flex. Mike Gesicki and Dalton Schultz are the clear TE pivots this week. Gesicki gets a major boost if Tee Higgins suffers a setback from his quad injury. Similarly, Tanner Hudson also would see a boost if Higgins were to be limited.

Fantasy football start ’em, sit ’em: Week 11

Fantasy’s top hot starts and cold sits for NFL Week 11.

It’s time for Week 11 of the NFL regular season, and we’re getting into the final stretch of the regular season in most fantasy leagues. Now, more than ever, it is imperative to make the right moves. It could mean the difference between making and missing the playoffs and a shot at a championship.

We’ll be without players from the Arizona Cardinals, Carolina Panthers, New York Giants and Tampa Bay Buccaneers, as all four teams are on a bye. Fantasy managers won’t feel a giant sting with that collection of teams being off, but there are some definite studs missing.

There are three divisional games on tap, and a titanic matchup between the Kansas City Chiefs and Buffalo Bills, which will be super entertaining, with plenty of fantasy implications all around.

The primetime games Sunday and Monday don’t jump off of the page, but we do have some stars. Cincinnati Bengals QB Joe Burrow and WR Ja’Marr Chase try to solve the suffocating defense of the Los Angeles Chargers. Meanwhile, Houston Texans QB C.J. Stroud hopes to have WR Nico Collins back on Monday night, as they look to boot the Dallas Cowboys while they’re down.

Doing start/sit articles can be a little challenging. The players featured on the list below should not be taken as “must starts” or “must sits.” Instead, these are more suggestions on what we believe managers should do with fringe players heading into the weekend. The choice is ultimately up to the manager.

Just because a player is listed as a “start” doesn’t mean he should be put in the lineup over the secure, bona fide studs. Vice versa for the “sits.” If there’s no better option on the waiver wire or the bench, a manager shouldn’t automatically sit the player. That’s why these can be tricky waters to navigate.

Feel free to ask any specific start/sit questions via X, formerly Twitter, (@danieledobish), or check out our start/bench list for Week 11:

Fantasy Football DFS Domination: Week 11

Quarterback

Weekly strategy – Despite facing off against each other’s elite defenses and without their top receiving weapons, Josh Allen and Patrick Mahomes lock horns in another epic battle. The clear pivot play would be Brock Purdy. To save some money, I love Russell WilsonJameis Winston and, to a lesser degree, Matthew StaffordWill Levis is a bottom-priced punt option.

Fantasy four-pack

Josh Allen, Bills vs. KC ($7,800 DK, $8,800 FDKC’s defense is elite, but when these two teams meet, throw the recent trends out the window. In seven career meetings, Allen has 20 total TDs, and he has averaged 299 total yards per game. Stack him with two of Khalil ShakirDawson Knox (assuming Dalton Kincaid is out), and Mack Hollins (assuming Amari Cooper is out).

Joe Burrow, Bengals @ LAC (N/A DK, $8,500 FDBurrow went berserk the last two weeks, throwing for nine TDs. This matchup looks tougher on paper, but the Chargers have faced only four top-20 QBs all season.

Patrick Mahomes, Chiefs @ BUF ($6,800 DK, $7,900 FDDespite facing a stingy Denver defense, Mahomes produced another solid yardage line last week. He threw for only one TD in that game, but Mahomes has six over the previous three weeks. Plus, he should get an enormous boost with the return of JuJu Smith-Schuster (hamstring) this week.

Brock Purdy, 49ers vs. SEA ($6,600 DK, $8,400 FDPurdy’s receivers returned to the field last week and he instantly went off for 353-2. Meanwhile, Seattle has allowed multiple passing TDs in five of their last six games, including three to Purdy in Week 6.

Sleepers

Russell Wilson, Steelers vs. BAL ($5,900 DK, $7,800 FDBaltimore has the worst pass defense in football. They have allowed 30 more yards per game than the next worst team. They have also allowed the most passing TDs this year. Since becoming the starting quarterback in Week 7, Wilson has scored the sixth-most points per game among quarterbacks.

Jameis Winston, Browns @ NO ($5,500 DK, $7,200 FDWinston gets the revenge game against a New Orleans defense that recently traded away their best cornerback. Stack him with David Njoku and Cedric Tillman.

Running back

Weekly strategy – Christian McCaffrey immediately stepped back into a bell cow role. This week he faces a cake matchup. Bijan Robinson and Kyren Williams are the next best options. Detroit also has an easy matchup, but good luck choosing between Jahmyr Gibbs and David Montgomery. Kareem Hunt is my favorite RB2 choice. Chase Brown and Nick Chubb can be RB2 pivots. They also are both great flex plays if you go cheaper elsewhere. Watch Najee Harris’s (ankle) injury status. If he is out, Jaylen Warren can be a punt option. Otherwise, take a flier on Alexander Mattison or Audric Estime.

Christian McCaffrey, 49ers vs. SEA ($8,300 DK, $9,800 FDSince Week 4, Seattle has allowed over 27 PPR points per game to opposing RBs. This included allowing 26.9 PPR points to the Niners’ backups in Week 6. Nothing held McCaffrey back last week. He handled 20 of the 22 RB opportunities for San Fran.

Bijan Robinson, Falcons @ DEN ($7,800 DK, $8,900 FD) Pass-catching running backs can beat Denver’s defense. They rank fourth in RB targets and receptions and fifth in RB receiving yards and receiving TDs. This fits Robinson’s bill as he ranks third among RBs in both receptions and receiving yards.

Kyren Williams, Rams @ NE ($7,900 DK, $9,200 FDWilliams gets to feast on a Patriots’ defense that allows 145 combo yards and 1.1 total TDs per game to the RB position. Despite being shut out the last two weeks, Williams ranks second in total TDs among RBs.

Alvin Kamara, Saints vs. CLE ($8,200 DK, $8,200 FDHis price is the same on both sites, but he is only a legit play on DK because of the full PPR scoring. Kamara has five or more receptions in eight of 10 games. Meanwhile, Cleveland has faced legit pass-catching backs only a few times this year, so their numbers look artificially good.

Sleepers

Kareem Hunt, Chiefs @ BUF ($6,700 DK, $8,000 FDWith Isiah Pacheco’s (leg) return looming shortly, this may be the last week to enjoy huge scoring from Hunt. Buffalo is allowing a league third-worst 4.9 YPC to opposing rushers. Since Week 9, they have allowed 362 total yards and three total TDs to the position.

Nick Chubb, Browns @ NO ($6,000 DK, $6,200 FD) The Saints have allowed seven total RB touchdowns over the last four weeks. Chubb has been a dud since his return in Week 7, but here — at low ownership — he will go off.

Wide receiver

Weekly strategy – Spend up on Ja’Marr Chase or Puka Nacua. The only other elite player among the high-priced options is George Pickens. At WR2, pick Calvin RidleyKhalil ShakirQuentin Johnston, or DeAndre Hopkins. I love Jauan Jennings and Cedric Tillman for WR3. I also would consider JuJu Smith-Schuster (hamstring) if he returns from his injury. If you punt this position, Mack HollinsNick Westbrook-Ikhine, and Mike Williams are the best options.

Fantasy four-pack

Ja’Marr Chase, Bengals @ LAC (N/A DK, $9,600 FDIf you faced Chase last week, my condolences on your loss. Thankfully, in DFS, you can choose to play him this week even if you don’t own him in your season-long leagues. Over their last three games, the Chargers have allowed an average of 6.3-89-1 to opposing WR1s.

Puka Nacua, Rams @ NE ($7,300, $8,300 FDIn the two full games that Nacua has played since his return from injury, he has posted 16-204 on 23 targets. As long as he doesn’t punch anyone, he should post 9-100-1 here.

George Pickens, Steelers vs. BAL ($7,000 DK, $7,500 FDOnly two WR1s have not topped 100 yards and/or scored against this defense this season. Both came back in Weeks 3 and 4. Since then, they have allowed an average of 7-126-1.8 to opposing WR1s. Plus, Pickens has scored in two of the three games since Russell Wilson took over at QB.

Amon-Ra St. Brown, Lions vs. JAX ($8,000 DK, $9,200 FDThis play isn’t as obvious as expected. Detroit could just run the ball down the throat of the Jaguars. Plus, St. Brown’s scoring touchdowns in seven consecutive games has helped his numbers look better than they are. Still, with Sam LaPorta (shoulder) in danger of missing this game, St. Brown could see an uptick in targets.

Sleepers

Calvin Ridley, Titans vs. MIN ($6,200 DK, $6,400 FDMinnesota ranks in the bottom eight in receptions, yardage, and TDs allowed to opposing WRs. Meanwhile, since Week 6, Ridley ranks third among WRs in targets. 

Cedric Tillman, Browns @ NO ($5,300 DK, $6,500 FDThe sites have not bumped Tillman’s price up, despite his ranking 10th or better in receptions, targets, and receiving TDs among WRs, since Week 7.

Tight end

Weekly strategy – Travis Kelce and George Kittle each have juicy matchups. David Njoku, Pat Freiermuth, and Mike Gesicki are cheaper alternatives. If you want to take a deep dive, consider Will DisslyDawson Knox, or Brock Wright.

Fantasy four-pack

Travis Kelce, Chiefs @ BUF ($6,300 DK, $7,400 FDIn his last seven games against the Bills, Kelce is averaging 7.8-87 with eight TDs. Plus, over the last three weeks, Kelce is leading the league in TE targets, receptions, and receiving yards.

George Kittle, 49ers vs. SEA ($6,000 DK, $8,000 FD) Kittle has seven TDs over his last seven games. This includes a 5-58-2 against these Seahawks.

David Njoku, Browns @ NO ($5,500 DK, $6,600 FD) In the three games since Jameis Winston took over, Njoku has posted 20-166-2 on 28 targets. The Saints have struggled with the limited number of similarly talented TEs they have faced this season.

Brock Bowers, Raiders @ MIA ($5,800 DK, $7,200 FDThis isn’t a great matchup on paper, but Bowers has been matchup-proof this year. He ranks second among TEs in both receptions and targets, and he ranks first in receiving yards.

Sleepers

Mike Gesicki, Bengals @ LAC (N/A DK, $5,400 FDSince Tee Higgins (quadriceps) went down to injury, Gesicki ranks top-four in every TE scoring category. As long as Higgins remains out, keep playing him. If Higgins plays, consider flipping to Pat Freiermuth at a similar price.

Dawson Knox, Bills vs. KC ($3,500 DK, $5,100 FD) With Dalton Kincaid (knee) on the wrong side of questionable, Knox will be a favorite target for Josh Allen. In six career games versus the Chiefs, Knox has scored three times. Plus, KC has allowed the most receiving yards to the position.

Fantasy football IDP free-agent report: Week 11

Check your waiver wire for these IDP Week 11 pickups.

We’re inching closer to the fantasy playoffs, and four more teams are on a bye this week. That could make another team’s roster crunch become a dire situation. So keep your eyes open for players that shouldn’t be let go.

Each week, we’ll highlight diamonds in the rough or some players that just need to be rostered in more leagues on the defensive side of the ball. Keep in mind your scoring system and roster restraints when heading to the waiver wire to grab these IDPs.

Defensive linemen

DE Charles Omenihu, Kansas City Chiefs

He’s opening his 21-day practice window this week after missing the entire season due to a torn ACL thus far. You’ll want to stash Omenihu if you have the space, because he made an immense impact in his first season with KC last year. He had seven sacks and two forced fumbles in 11 games. The Chiefs are in the bottom half of the league with 19 sacks, and his return will be a welcomed one.

DE Kobie Turner, Los Angeles Rams

The 25-year-old was all over the field on Monday Night Football. He had six tackles, a sack, and a pass defense. He logged a sack last week as well and has had six tackles in three straight years.

Linebackers

LB Anthony Walker, Miami Dolphins

Walker was another player who stood out Monday night, grabbing his first INT of the season. He also had nine tackles after a 10-tackle performance in Week 9. His window of production is clearly open right now. Take advantage.

LB De’Vondre Campbell, San Francisco 49ers

Campbell was second on the team with seven tackles in Week 10. It was the second straight week he had seven stops. His numbers have been spotty this season, but the 31-year-old is worth a look as a flex or depth candidate.

[lawrence-related id=496111]

LB Christian Rozeboom, Los Angeles Rams

Alongside having one of the most football-playeresque last names, Rozeboom has been great the last two weeks. He had three tackles, an INT, and three pass defenses Monday night and 11 tackles last week. A hit-or-miss option, but he’s hitting right now.

Defensive backs

DB Ugo Amadi, New Orleans Saints

After the team traded CB Marshon Lattimore, Amadi played in every defensive snap for the first time all season in Week 10. He answered the bell with nine tackles and a clutch pass defense near the end of the game. Amadi will continue to see more run.

S Taylor Rapp, Buffalo Bills

After a “meh” start to the season, Rapp started to pick it up around Week 6. He has had seven-plus tackles in four of the last five games, and he had 10 in Week 9. He picked off a pass in Week 10 to go with seven stops. He’ll present a low ceiling and a high floor with tackles in fantasy.

CB Carlton Davis, Detroit Lions

The 27-year-old has been busy the last two weeks. He had seven tackles and two PDs in Week 9. Davis managed four tackles, two INTs, and two PDs in Week 10. He has a couple of good matchups against Jacksonville and Indianapolis upcoming.

Fantasy Football Rest-of-Season Rankings: Week 11

Forecasting where all of the notable players net out over the remainder of the season.

These fantasy football rankings track a player’s value for the remainder of the season and are intended to be used as a tool, not necessarily a definitive guide to player valuation.

The scoring system is performance PPR. There is no exact science behind season-long rankings, considering all of the variables and situational uncertainties at work.

Rankings key:
UP/DN is trending up or down from week’s ranking.
NR means the player wasn’t ranked last week.
UP/DN numbering shows where the player was ranked the prior week.
