FanDuel NFL 2017: Week 11 lineup
When setting your lineups for FanDuel NFL contests in Week 11, here’s a lineup to think about deploying.
Before I unveil Week 11’s FanDuel NFL lineup, here’s a look back at the results from Week 10.
Quarterback: Matthew Stafford-22.66 points
Running Backs: Jordan Howard-5.4 points, Orleans Darkwa-11.8 points
Wide Receivers: Antonio Brown-6.2 points, Golden Tate-18.7 points, Demaryius Thomas-12.9 points
Tight End: Kyle Rudolph-6.2 points
Kicker: Ryan Succop-7 points
Team Defense: Los Angeles Rams-15 points
Brown was the biggest dud here, followed by Howard and Rudolph. The Stafford-Tate stack didn’t look good for most of their game, but it ultimately delivered. But ultimately, the process did not yield good results in Week 10.

In this post, all salary and “fantasy points” references are to the FanDuel scoring system (unless otherwise noted) and salaries.

Here is my FanDuel group for Week 11, which as usual I am using myself in a contest (Sunday-only).
Quarterback: Alex Smith, Kansas City Chiefs-$7,900
Smith had less than 270 passing yards in three of four games going into a bye, and he’s generally looked more like a very ordinary quarterback in recent weeks. But he has a good bounce-back opportunity ahead of him in Week 11.
It’s safe to say the New York Giants have shown ample signs of “quit”, and there’s no better evidence than on the defensive side of the ball. They’ve allowed nine touchdown passes over their last three games, and going back over their last six games they have allowed multiple passing touchdowns or more than 280 passing yards in each (both four times).
The type of big plays the Giants have been allowing sets up players like Tyreek Hill and Kareem Hunt to burn them. Smith will benefit, if only as a facilitator.
