Week 11 Waiver Wire Pickups: Sleepers Available in Majority of Fantasy Leagues
When it's this late into an NFL season, your fantasy football lineup has likely encountered some turbulence.
Between injuries and bye weeks, there's seemingly always something standing between you and a complete roster.
That's why the fantasy football gods created the waiver wire, so let's explore your Week 11 options for plug-and-play sleepers.
Jordan Love, QB, Green Bay Packers (45 Percent Rostered)
1 of 3
Jordan Love's game log twists and turns like a thrill ride, so he's not someone you can trust every week.
His ups are good-to-great, though, so if you're able to soak up his strong outings while avoiding his weak ones, he can be helpful to have on your roster.
Green Bay's roster is getting healthier around him, and he's taking advantage of that. He is the 10th-highest scoring quarterback over the past two weeks, per FantasyPros, a stretch during which he's racked up 517 passing yards and three touchdown throws.
He could hit the skids at any moment, but he feels relatively safe this week, as he'll face a Los Angeles Chargers defense allowing the second-most fantasy points to the position, per Yahoo.
Rondale Moore, WR, Arizona Cardinals (10 Percent Rostered)
2 of 3
Kyler Murray's return immediately gave Arizona's offense more juice. Twenty-five points may not sound like a ton in the modern NFL, but for the Cardinals, it was their second-highest score all the season and the most points they'd scored since Week 2.
There is some excitement in Arizona, and the hope is that can trinkle down on Moore and make him a fantasy asset.
To be clear, he's nowhere near that label at the moment, but at the very least, he's trending up. In Week 10, he set season-highs in receptions (five), targets (eight) and receiving yards (43).
Those numbers aren't great, but the ones he was posting before suffering a season-ending groin injury in Week 11 last season were. In the three games before his exit, he had 24 catches on 31 targets for 255 yards and a touchdown. He has talent, and he now has a quarterback who can help take advantage of that.
Tyjae Spears, RB, Tennessee Titans (39 Percent Rostered)
3 of 3
Spears hasn't quite engineered a monster performance yet, but it feels like the rookie third-rounder is on the cusp of a breakthrough.
If nothing else, this is the closest Tennessee has come to bumping Spears ahead of Derrick Henry in this backfield.
The switch hasn't happened yet, but things have trended that way. In three of the last four weeks, Spears has seen more snaps than Henry, per Football-Reference. Spears also closed the gap in touches during Week 10, and while Henry still saw more (12 to nine), Spears did more with his opportunities (60 scrimmage yards to Henry's 20).
If the Titans, 3-6 on the season and starting rookie second-rounder Will Levis at quarterback, ever shift their focus to the future, they could conceivably move Spears into something like a featured role.
