Fantasy Football Start em, Sit em Lineup Advice: Week 11
Since Week 3, Brown has had a 16.4% target share, 1.82 YPRR, and a 20.3% first-read share. In that seven-game span, he hasn’t drawn an end-zone target. Brown has two WR3 or better weekly finishes this season, with one being the week where he caught the miracle Hail Mary. Brown is a sit this week. Since Week 5, Philly has allowed the fewest fantasy points per game to perimeter wide receivers.
Goedert is the TE7 in fantasy points per game. Last week, in his first game back from injury, he was the TE9 for the week, logging a 70% route share with a 13.6% target share, 1.19 YPRR, and a 20% first-read share. Goedert should flirt with low-end TE1 value this week despite a tough matchup. Washington has held tight ends in check with the seventh-lowest receiving yards per game allowed while sitting at 15th in yards per reception.
Ertz is the TE16 in fantasy points per game this season, with five weekly finishes as a TE1. He has been a red zone target maven from Daniels over the last six games with seven red zone looks. Ertz has a 17.7% target share, 1.55 YPRR, and a 16.6% first-read share. He is also tied for second on the team with four end-zone targets. Philly has shut down tight ends, allowing the fifth-fewest receiving yards per game and the fewest fantasy points per game to the position. Sit Ertz in Week 11.
