Vance McDonald, Pittsburgh Steelers, $4,000 (Flex Worthy)

Stats: 390 receiving yards, 2 touchdowns

Vance McDonald has helped boost this offense multiple times this season. McDonald is part of an offense that has multiple weapons that are employed on the field each and every week. Week 11 he will be on the road against a Jacksonville Jaguars defense that has been in a funk all season long. A playmaker like McDonald can and will get loose for big yardage plays when surrounded by guys like Antonio Brown, JuJu Smith-Schuster and James Conner.

McDonald scored last week against the Carolina Panthers, as the Steelers completely disassembled the Panthers defense on Thursday Night Football. This is a prime opportunity based on his price to take advantage of his potential in each and every matchup. Especially this one where his counterparts will be covered all game long. Ben Roethlisberger has a history of utilizing his tight ends when in trouble and use them as safety valves in big games.

This is a huge game for the Steelers as they lost to the Jaguars in the 2017 playoffs. They will want to hit this defense hard, early and often to send a message. McDonald will play a huge role in the mindset leading up to this game. He has already been a factor in multiple games this season. He has four games of 60 yards or more or a touchdown. Some games he accomplished both feats. Which says a lot about this offense going forward.

Next: Best NFL player from each state

McDonald is averaging five targets and 50 yards per game. That volume as a tight end can be taken advantage of each and every week. Especially in a huge matchup like this. He will have another big game and at his current price you will want to capitalize and take advantage for all of your lineups. McDonald also comes in as a flex worthy candidate. Utilize this matchup and strike paydirt this Sunday along with him.

Prediction: 85 receiving yards, 2 touchdowns
