NFL Week 11 Waiver Wire Pickups: Alex Smith and More Fine Fantasy Solutions

Did you forget to fix your team before last night? Well, you just missed out on two teams of waiver-wire players, but I have you covered with the solutions that remain. 

Sure there were plenty of scrap-heap players that would have been great to have for your weekly showdown, but there are still plenty of great solutions to be had. 

Here are the players that will get you as close to star quality results for free. We dig deep into the bargain bin that is the waiver wire to solve your injury and bye week issues. 

The fantasy football season is an unforgiving headache, but we are making it as pain-free as possible with these fabulous solutions. It all begins with a man that is guaranteed to piggyback on his team's dominance this weekend. You will want to hop on as well. 

Alex Smith

The San Francisco 49ers are primed to roll to another win this week as they take on the hapless Arizona Cardinals. 

The Cardinals hardly have a defense to worry about, making this a scoring dream for Smith owners. With Frank Gore banged up, Smith will have to go to the air a bit more in this game. 

That means an increase to his usual 15-point fantasy games. I am confident we'll see 20 from Smith in a rout of the Cardinals. 

Kendall Hunter

Let's continue with our Niners theme for the time being. As I stated, Gore is injured but still may play. 

The Niners hardly need to exhaust or re-injure their main weapon, so look for his touches to be limited greatly. That leaves Hunter to take his place as the featured back. 

Brandon Jacobs

Reports signal that Ahmad Bradshaw will miss yet another game this weekend. That means Jacobs will get the duties as starting running back. 

The Eagles are a great many things, but a stout rushing defense they are not. Start Jacobs and reap the rewards.
