Using a combination of stud performers, bargain options, and favorable matchups, we put together a solid DraftKings lineup for Week 11.
Just like with all fantasy football, creating a DraftKings lineup takes a mix of skill and luck. An injury can derail your lineup, or a garbage time touchdown can propel you into cash. Either way, it’s just as fun as it is challenging to try to figure out the best lineup.
In most of my DraftKings lineups, I try to pick high-floor guys that have decent upside on the week. In this week’s lineup, we have plenty of guys who can have massive weeks.
Best DraftKings lineup for Week 11 of fantasy football
Quarterback: Jalen Hurts, Philadelphia Eagles ($6,800)
It’s hard to deny Jalen Hurts’ play in his first year as a full-time starter. While he hasn’t gotten many real life wins for the Eagles, he’s certainly won fantasy matchups, as he currently checks in as the overall QB3 in fantasy football. Those of you who took a dart throw on Hurts late in draft have been rewarded big time.
While Hurts has seemingly been matchup-proof all year, he gets a pretty favorable matchup this week against New Orleans’ 26th-ranked pass defense, who just got torched by Ryan Tannehill. Hurts is a far more dynamic player than Tannehill is and should produce even better numbers this week.
For some reason, Hurts still isn’t priced as an elite quarterback on DraftKings, so we’re going to take full advantage of that this week.
