The fantasy football Week 11 matchups are about to start and some sleepers and pickup options for the weekend include John Brown, CJ Anderson, Ryan Mathews, Drew Stanton, Malcom Floyd, Damien Williams, Sammy Watkins, Fred Jackson, Theo Riddick, Coby Fleener, Bobby Rainey, Charles Sims, Mark Sanchez, Branden Oliver, Robert Griffin, Isaiah Crowell, Charles Clay and Terrance West, as those players could step up big for owners this weekend and down the stretch.
John Brown and CJ Anderson are the picks of the week, as Anderson may get to start with Ronnie Hillman banged up and Brown has emerged as a huge target for the Cardinals. Brown has scored long TDs in each of the past two weeks, while Anderson had over 150 total yards last week coming in for Hillman. Damien Williams and Ryan Mathews arte solid RB options, as Mathews is coming back from an injury, while Williams may get to step up with Lamar Miller ailing.
Ryan Mathews and Branden Oliver should share carries and they could end up with a solid total, as the Chargers play against the Raiders this weekend. Sammy Watkins and Fred Jackson have a strong matchup with the Dolphins, while Charles Sims and Bobby Rainey have emerged as the best options over Doug Martin for the Buccaneers. Jordan Matthews continues to emerge as a great pick for the Eagles and he comes in after having his best game with seven catches for 138 yards and two scores against the Panthers on MNF.
Anderson comes in after a huge game for the Broncos and he put up 163 total yards in the game and he also scored a TD. Hillman and Ball will get carries when healthy, but if they are limited this week, look for Anderson to lead the trio in touches. Anderson ended up with 90 yards in the ground and he also added four catches for 73 yards and a TD for 17 touches combined on the day. Anderson now has 172 yards this season and over 100 yards receiving.
Brown has had two strong games in a row and after putting up eight catches for over 100 yards, he had five catches for over 70 yards and scored for the second consecutive week. Brown has 29 catches for 399 yards on the season with five TDs and he has been one of the best surprises in the NFL this season and he speed is unmatched. Drew Stanton is a worthy option for fantasy owners without a prime starter, as the Cardinals will continue to throw quite a bit even with Carson Palmer out of the lineup for the rest of the season. Stanton now has three TDs and zero picks this season and he is 2-1 for the Cards as a starter and he will be looking to take the team into the playoffs with Palmer out.
Matt Asiata has had a solid season and he comes in after putting in three touchdowns in his last game. Asiata also had a two point conversion and was one of the best fantasy players in Week 9. Once Adrian Peterson is back things will change, but for now Asiata is worth using and he comes in with 277 yards on the season and six TDs to go along with 22 catches for 199 yards and a score.
