Fantasy Football Pickups Week 11: Montee Ball, Mark Ingram, CJ Anderson, Drew Stanton, Theo Riddick, Lamar Miller, Charles Sims

Nov 11, 2014 01:18 PM EST

The fantasy football schedule is into Week 11 and some of the top pickups and free agent options include CJ Anderson, Jordan Matthews, Montee Ball, Matt Asiata, Drew Stanton, Theo Riddick, Lamar Miller, Jordan Matthews, Odell Beckham, Rashad Jennings, Larry Donnell, Terrance West, Jarvis Landry and Ryan Mathews, as those names have the chance to step up this weekend and down the stretch for owners.

The Broncos have some interesting options, as Ronnie Hillman is banged up and Montee Ball is set to return and now Ball and CJ Anderson could be solid pickups for Week 11. The Broncos want to ease Ball back in and many owners have dropped him, while Anderson had a breakout game last week and could get some touches. Ryan Mathews is coming back for the Chargers and is worth a look, while Charles Sims and Bobby Rainey have stepped up for the Bucs with Doug Martin out of action.

The Eagles have Mark Sanchez and Jordan Matthews playing well and Matthews comes in after making seven catches for over 100 yards and two TDs against the Panthers on Monday night football. Theo Riddick made an impact for the Lions and he could be a strong option in deeper leagues, while Terrance West has emerged as the best pickup for the Browns among their RBs. Jarvis Landry has been getting consistent targets in Miami, while Odell Beckham has turned into a star for the Giants and is their best receiver with Victor Cruz out.

Rashad Jennings is making a return for the Giants and while that hurts Andre Williams, it may help everyone else. The Giants have not been good in recent weeks and losing Jennings has been one of the main reasons why and he could help open things up for Beckham and Eli Manning. Mychal Rivera has been strong as a TE option in the past three weeks and he now has three TDs over his last two games. Rivera had another TD last week and went for six catches for 64 yards and the Raiders should be looking to him quite often now that he has emerged.

Mark Ingram is a player that should be a pickup across all leagues, as the Saints are dealing with injuries and he has been great. Ingram has three 100-yard games this season and all of those came in the last three weeks. Ingram has six TDs already and has rushed for 551 yards in just six games and while he has dealt with injuries, he has toughed it out with a shoulder issue over the past few weeks. Ingram missed time earlier in the season, but he has been an RB1 the past three weeks, going for 24, 30 and 27 carries on those games and scoring three TDs in that span.

Lamar Miller is dealing with a shoulder and that makes him a player to watch and LaMichael James could step up if he is out. The Broncos have CJ Anderson and Montee Ball as options with Ronnie Hillman injured, while Drew Stanton is a solid option for anyone needing a spot start. The Cardinals have tons of talent and Stanton has shown that he can handle the Arizona offense after Carson Palmer went down.
