After a dreadful week 10, we are turning the corner and focusing on week 11. There are two chalky plays for this week, Danny Amendola, and Charcandrick West. I did not have to lock them in, Colossus was way ahead of my thinking.
Starting with cash games, Cam Newton is one of my favorite QB's right now. I know what he is going to give me, which is two-three touchdowns, and likely one of them coming on the ground. He has monster upside, and faces a Redskins defense at home, sign me up. Value backs take two, Darren McFadden had a disappointing week against Tampa, who have been stout against RB's lately. McFadden will have an easier task against Miami, and with Tony Romo likely back, this should take the focus solely off the run game. Look for Dallas and Miami to possibly turn into a shootout. Charcandrick West takes on San Diego, enough said. They are the worst rushing defense in the land, allowing 4.9 YPC. There are a lot of wideouts this week with tough matchup, and it is going to be tough to avoid all of them. Julio Jones will see Vontae Davis, but Jones is pretty much a lock anyway. Big total, at home, give me some Jones. Fitz is another one, but with the creativity of the offense, Fitz can avoid tough matchups, and torch defenses from the slot. There are some pivots you can make if the matchups scare you, mainly looking at the wideouts from the Oakland-Detroit game. Stevie Johnson is another cheap value play with upside, given the Chargers' lack of healthy bodies. Jordan Reed has a nice safe projection, but his upside could be limited in this matchup. I still think he is too cheap for his production. Amendola the other chalk play for the week, and you likely already know why. No Edelman, Amendola has looked great, Tom Brady, etc. Play him. Seahawks at home against Blaine Gabbert, yup.
Things take a turn in the GPP projections, paying up for Devonta Freeman, and dropping down at wideout to Sammy Watkins. The Buffalo wideout is a boom-or-bust call, perfect for GPP's, and perfect for a team who will likely be trailing from the start. The GPP lineup upgrades the Chargers play, with Gates instead of Johnson.
No shocker, as Tom Brady, Danny Amendola, and Rob Gronkowski are the top stack on DraftKings. It is much easier to fit a Pats stack on DK, rather than at FD.
This lineup features plenty of highlighted players already, as well as Michael Crabtree, who is one of my favorite wideouts for week 11. He has a great price still, and a phenomenal matchup. You are rocking a Bears defense in this stack, who take on Brock Osweiler.
