Fantasy Football Week 11 Waiver Wire: D/ST options to consider streaming
We're not too far from the fantasy football playoffs and every move is going to be crucial in securing a spot in the postseason. We only have two teams on bye in Week 11 and one of them you likely wouldn't be considering as a streaming option on defense anyway (the Saints). But the Colts D/ST isn't playing this week, which could mean you're in need of a streamer, or maybe you're looking to lean into a different matchup than the one your current D/ST has this week. Here are some good options to consider based on Justin Boone's weekly fantasy football waiver wire column.
Fantasy Football D/ST Week 11 Streamers
Team | Opponent | Roster % |
Falcons | vs. CAR | 11% |
Cowboys | at LV | 7% |
Bears | at MIN | 28% |
Falcons vs. Panthers: Atlanta has posted back-to-back games of 10 fantasy points despite facing tough competition (Patriots and Colts). The Panthers are surrendering the eighth-most fantasy points to opposing defenses this season.
Cowboys at Raiders: Dallas is coming off its bye week, so rest and health plays a factor here. The Cowboys have also posted double-digit fantasy points in two of their past three games thanks to touchdowns and a quality pass rush. Meanwhile, Las Vegas QB Geno Smith, who suffered a thigh bruise in Week 10, could be less than 100 percent.
Bears at Vikings: Minnesota's offense with J.J. McCarthy under center isn't scaring anyone. The Vikings are also giving up the third-most fantasy points to opposing defenses this season. The Bears do a great job of forcing turnovers with multiple in five games this season.
