Wide Receivers

Mike Evans-Tampa Bay Buccaneers

The rookie from Texas A&M that has made his mark on the NFL isn’t Johnny Football, but Mike Evans.  Evans returns to our leaderboard once again this week.  He was the only receiver to go over 100 yards with a pair of touchdowns totaling a whopping 209 yards on his seven catches including a pair of touchdowns.  Evans now has 21 catches, five touchdowns, and 458 yards in just his last three games.  Next week he matches up against a struggling Bears secondary and lines up for another monster game.

Brandon Marshall-Chicago Bears

Marshall continues to be Jay Cutler’s go-to red zone option no matter what rumors fly around the locker room.  In Chicago’s win over Minnesota, Marshall caught a pair of touchdowns while hauling in seven passes for a total of 90 yards.

Alshon Jeffery-Chicago Bears

Jeffery led the league with 11 catches while being targeted 17 times. He was edged out by Marshall in non-PPR leagues due to his one touchdown compared to Marshall’s two, but Jeffery’s 135 yards with one score is still a very nice fantasy haul.

Kenny Britt-St. Louis Rams

What better Rams player to make this list than blast-from-the-past Britt who caught four passes for 128 yards and a touchdown against the Broncos.  Britt has been a fringe sleeper all year who hasn’t delivered, but he was huge in the Rams shocking win over Denver.

A.J. Green-Cincinnati Bengals

Green  and the Bengals looked miles better than last week as they went to the Big Easy and got a big win over the Saints.  Green finished with 127 yards on his six catches and did find the end zone for one touchdown.

Michael Floyd-Arizona Cardinals

Even though he only caught two passes, Floyd makes our list of week 11 leaders since both of those passes went for touchdowns.  Floyd drew five targets from Drew Stanton and finished with 54 yards and a pair of touchdowns on his two catches.

Jordy Nelson-Green Bay Packers

Nelson was relatively quiet compared to his big games but still had a solid four catches for 109 yards and a touchdown against the Eagles.  He was still targeted ten times, so there is no need for concern over his low catch total.

Emmanuel Sanders-Denver Broncos

The only Bronco in our week 11 leaders, Sanders left Denver’s loss early with a concussion and did not return.  Before he departed, Sanders hauled in five catches for 102 yards and a touchdown.

Kelvin Benjamin-Carolina Panthers

Benjamin continues to produce at a high level as the Panthers most potent wide receiver.  He heads into his bye with another good game catching a season-high nine passes for 109 yards and a touchdown in the Panthers loss to Atlanta.

Jordan Matthews-Philadelphia Eagles

Matthews and the Eagles got off to a slow start, but he picked up enough garbage-time production to keep his owners happy as he continued to show a nice connection with Mark Sanchez.  Matthews finished with five catches for 107 yards and a touchdown giving him three straight games with a touchdown catch and four scores over that period of time.
