Week 11 Fantasy Rankings: Wes Welker and Stars That'll Return to Form

The 2011 fantasy football season is moving far too fast, and it’s important to get your team ready for the long playoff push.

While your team may be struggling right now, expect that tides will eventually turn and you will be able to look the other fantasy owners in the face without shame.

The following players have had a mediocre stretch these past few weeks, buts time for them to show up big this week.

Wes Welker

When Wes Welker or any wide receiver in the NFL goes up against the shutdown machine Darrelle Revis, you should just expect little to no output from that star.

Welker will have a much easier task against the weakened secondary of the Kansas City Chiefs, and fantasy owners should rejoice.

After being offensively stifled over the last few weeks, Tom Brady and the Patriots will stretch their offensive legs with a big win.

Calvin Johnson

It was hard to tell if the Chicago Bears were covering Calvin Johnson that well or if Matthew Stafford was having that bad of a game.

Either way, you should expect much better from the star wideout when the Lions face off against the terrible Carolina Panthers.

Fantasy owners are hoping the Lions don’t get up by too many points in this game, or Johnson will be again limited to just a few catches and limited red-zone looks.

Cedric Benson

The Cincinnati Bengals have been doing well this season, thanks in part to the solid play of running back Cedric Benson.

The team faces a huge test on Sunday against the Baltimore Ravens, but as we saw last week when Marshawn Lynch ran for more than 100 yards, the Ravens defense isn’t what it used to be.

Benson has surprisingly good numbers against the division rival Ravens, and it will continue this week as he leads the Bengals to a win.
