As Week 11 of the NFL season arrives, we evaluate potential waiver wire additions to guide your fantasy football team to victory.
Another week of NFL action is now in the books as we continue to slowly inch ourselves closer and closer to fantasy football playoffs. I know I’ve been preaching the tag-line that the waivers are important through the entire season, but with only a few weeks left in the fantasy season, the waivers could make or break your run to the championship game.
If you took advice from week ten’s edition of waiver-wire targets, you most likely found some success with your plug-and-plays. Suggested quarterback Baker Mayfield struck paydirt three times while throwing for 216 yards and rushing for another 20 yards. Both running backs found themselves with modest days (Jalen Richard: 10 points, Duke Johnson Jr: 14 points) while Marquez Valdes-Scantling and Maurice Harris notched 10 points each at the receiver position.
As we look forward to action in Week 11, a total of six teams find themselves on bye weeks. Buffalo, Miami, New England, New York (Jets), Cleveland and San Francisco all will enjoy a week away from action this week, although tight end Rob Gronkowski has seemingly been on bye for about a month now thanks to injuries.
All six teams offer significant cogs that are constantly in line-ups, leaving room for many fantasy players to seek replacements. This late in the season, the waivers aren’t as juicy and promising as they once were, yet there’s still value and sleepers to find.
Don’t have the time to sort through waivers and find players to claim? That’s where yours truly comes in. So while you’re busy mowing down early holiday decorations (It’s not even Thanksgiving, come on guys), sit back and enjoy another week of fantasy football waiver wire adds.
