NFL Week 11 DFS GPP Lineup Advice & Picks

The players below are ones I’m looking at for GPP considerations in Week 11:

Quarterbacks

DraftKings

Kyler Murray (QB – ARI): $6,100 at HOU

It was exciting to watch Kyler Murray return to action last week. His debut had some mixed results, but he was running around like we love to see. The former Heisman Trophy winner has been the top quarterback in fantasy at times, and he’s an excellent GPP play, sitting around $6K. He’s even more attractive against a team like Houston, allowing 66 points over their last two games. They also have a 25th OPRK against opposing signal-callers.

Brock Purdy (QB – SF): $5,800 vs. TB

This Tampa defense has been terrible. They’re allowing the most passing yards over the last month, owning a 28th OPRK against opposing quarterbacks this season. That would put anyone in play against them, especially someone as reliable as Brock Purdy. He has at least 20 DK points in all but a few games since taking this job last season and remains a good value below $6K with so many players to feed in this elite offense.

FanDuel

Jordan Love (QB – GB): $7,300 vs. LAC

Jordan Love has been lackluster all season but remains a solid fantasy option. The Packers quarterback is averaging nearly 18 FanDuel points per game. That’s a fantastic total from such an affordable player, and we don’t want to fade him against Los Angeles. The Chargers are surrendering the most fantasy points to opposing quarterbacks this year!

Matthew Stafford (QB – LAR): $6,700 vs. SEA

Matthew Stafford missed last week, but he’ll be ready to return here. The former No. 1 overall pick ranks in the top 10 in pass attempts, air yards and passing yards per game. That’s no surprise since he can feed studs like Cooper Kupp and Puka Nacua, making him a heck of a value below $7,000. Seattle is a superb matchup, too, surrendering the eighth-most yards in the NFL. That’s led to him scoring at least 18 FD points in all three of their matchups since joining LA!

Running Backs

DraftKings

Aaron Jones (RB – GB): $6,200 vs. LAC

Aaron Jones was slightly disappointing last week, but we’re ecstatic he’s back to a full workload. He’s had 33 carries over the last two games and four catches in each. That’s what made him a top-10 back in the past, and he’s eventually going to return to that if he keeps getting 15 carries and five targets a game. Facing LA is the icing on the cake, with the Chargers surrendering the third-most fantasy points to opposing backs.

Jerome Ford (RB – CLE): $5,200 vs. PIT

Why is Jerome Ford just $5,200? The former Cincinnati Bearcat has taken over this backfield since Nick Chubb went down in Week 1, averaging over 13 DraftKings points per game. That’s all you can ask for from a $5,200 player, especially since he’s locked into 15 touches a game. We don’t want to fade that sort of role and production against Pittsburgh, posting a 22nd OPRK against opposing rushers.

FanDuel

James Conner (RB – ARI): $6,800 at HOU

James Conner returned to action in Week 10, and we’re excited to use him below $7K. He has been a top-10 back almost every year since joining Arizona, and he’s only going to improve with Murray back behind center. We also saw him get 16 carries in his return to action, and he should be locked into 20 touches a game. That looks even better since Houston is allowing the fourth-most fantasy points to opposing backs since the start of last season.

Darrell Henderson (RB – LAR): $6,100 vs. SEA

This is the last time we’ll be able to use Darrell Henderson because Kyren Williams is expected to return next week. Henderson has been filling in for him in his absence, averaging 14 carries per game. That sort of opportunity is fantastic in this matchup because the Rams are coming off a bye and gets a favorable game script against a subpar Seattle defense. The Seahawks are surrendering the fifth-most fantasy points to opposing running backs this season.

Wide Receivers

DraftKings

DJ Moore (WR – CHI): $5,600 at DET

It’s been disappointing for DJ Moore ever since Justin Fields went down, but he’s still the top option and one of the most talented wideouts in the NFL. Despite playing without a quarterback, Moore has a 25% team target share, averaging 17 DraftKings points per game. He also had 52 and 30 DK points in the last two games that Fields played, so we must adore him with Fields expected to return here!

Diontae Johnson (WR – PIT): $5,000 at CLE

It was a rough Week 10 for Diontae Johnson, but that was a blip on an otherwise clear radar. Johnson had at least 13 DK points in three-straight games before that, garnering a team-high 29 targets in that span. It’s rare to see a $5K player get double-digit targets, but that’s close to what we’ve seen from Johnson since his sophomore season! Cleveland is a concerning matchup, but Pittsburgh will have to throw in what’s a massive game for both teams.

FanDuel

Terry McLaurin (WR – WAS): $6,800 vs. NYG

Terry McLaurin has been a regular in this section over the last month and is still undervalued. The Commanders’ top receiver has at least eight targets in five straight fixtures, averaging 12 FanDuel points per game in that span. You can’t ask for any more from a sub-$7K player, especially since he faces one of the worst teams in the NFL. In eight career games against New York, “Scary Terry” is averaging nearly 20 fantasy points per game!

Marquise Brown (WR – ARI): $6,600 at HOU

Marquise Brown is a risky option because of some terrible form, but we have to assume he’ll improve now that Murray is back in action. The former Raven was receiving double-digit targets when Murray was behind center last season and will inevitably get better along with the rest of this offense. A matchup with the Texans is tremendous, too, because they’ve allowed over 60 points across their last two games! This could be the sneaky shootout of the week!

Tight Ends

DraftKings

Cole Kmet (TE – CHI): $4,100 at DET

We just talked about how we expect this offense to get better with Fields returning, and that’s massive for Cole Kmet’s fantasy value. This young tight end was already breaking out anyway, receiving 25 targets over his last three outings! He’s also got a 17-point average in that span and should do well here since Detroit owns a 22nd OPRK against opposing tight ends.

FanDuel

David Njoku (TE – CLE): $5,500 vs. PIT

David Njoku has recorded at least four receptions in seven of his last eight outings, also totaling 32 targets over his last four fixtures. Not many tight ends have that sort of workload, especially ones priced ninth at the weakest position in fantasy!

Defense/Special Teams

DraftKings

Washington Commanders D/ST: $3,600 vs. NYG

Using one of the worst defenses in the NFL is far from exciting, but it’s hard to fade any D/ST against the Giants. New York is dead last in nearly every offensive statistic, surrendering the most fantasy points to opposing D/STs. The odds in this game tell you everything you need to know because Washington is a 9.5-point favorite in a game with a 37-point total. It’s rare to see a team projected to score just 14 points!

FanDuel

New York Giants D/ST: $3,500 at WAS

Let’s go right back to this game! We already discussed how this 37-point total is the lowest of the week, and rostering the Giants D/ST might be a way to separate yourself from the field. This defense has been decent all year, while Washington owns a 28th OPRK against opposing D/STs. Look for this to be a gross, low-scoring game, with both D/STs performing well!
