The fantasy football Week 11 schedule is here and some free agent pickups and sleeper options include Damien Williams, Jordan Matthews, Matt Asiata, Tre Mason, Rashad Jennings, Bishop Sankey, John Brown, Allen Hurns, Terrance West, Jerick McKinnon and Theo Riddick, as those names have the chance to step up for owners in the coming weeks.
Jordan Matthews just had a huge game for the Eagles and he should be getting plenty of attention from Mark Sanchez, while Matt Asiata has been scoring TDs for the Vikings. Damien Williams will get his chance if Lamar Miller misses time on Thursday with an injury for the Dolphins, while LaMichael James also could get some work. CJ Anderson looks like he will get the chance to step up, as Ronnie Hillman is injured and Montee Ball is coming back from a groin injury and could be limited even if he plays.
Bishop Sankey could be a solid option for the rest of the season for any owners dealing with injuries, while Terrance West has emerged as the best option from the Browns. Jerick McKinnon and Asiata are worth looks until Adrian Peterson returns, while John Brown has been one of the best sleepers in the league. Brown scored again last week and he looked good while playing with Drew Stanton and now Stanton will be the starting quarterback for the Cardinals after Carson Palmer was injured.
Brown has been one of the best surprises of the season and he has emerged as a strong WR2 in most leagues and he comes in after making five catches for 73 yards and a score last week for the Cardinals. Michael Floyd was expected to be a big performer this season, but Brown has been the more consistent option and now he is worth starting in all formats moving forward this season. Stanton is a good option for anyone that lost Carson Palmer, as the Cardinals should continue throwing the ball quite a bit no matter what. Rashad Jennings is worth a look, as he is expected back this week or next week and he could be a huge boost for the Giants and fantasy owners. Jennings had 396 yards in five games before getting injured and now he could come back and take his starting job from Andre Williams.
Tre Mason has emerged as one of the best options out of the Rams backfield and it comes as he has taken over Zac Stacy, who started off the season as the top back. Benny Cunningham has gotten carries as well, but Mason has the best upside of the group. Matt Asiata comes in after rushing for three touchdowns last game before the bye and he is worth using with Jerick McKinnon until Adrian Peterson comes back. Once AP comes back, if he comes back, the Vikings backfield will be very crowded and now is the time to start those players.
Sammy Watkins is another name to check out this week, as he is playing the Dolphins and has a solid matchup. Watkins is a threat to score and for fantasy owners in need of an early boost, he could be a great option.
