Tight End: Dawson Knox, Buffalo Bills ($4,000)

Dawson Knox’s breakout season was derailed by an injury that caused him to miss two games, not counting the bye week. Before the injury, he was the fifth-highest scoring tight end in fantasy football. It’s no guarantee that he can return to pre-injury form down the stretch, but this week is a good week to start against the Colts who allow the sixth-most fantasy points to tight ends.

Flex: David Montgomery, Chicago Bears ($5,500)

I promised a triple-threat at running back, and David Montgomery is the final piece. After his four game absence, Montgomery returned to his workhorse duties and carried the ball 13 times for 63 yards, adding two catches.

Getting the type of high-volume, RB2-type back that Montgomery is for under $6,000 is a complete steal. The Ravens give up the 12th-most fantasy points to running backs, and Montgomery’s high-volume role should guarantee him a good fantasy day.

D/ST: Cleveland Browns ($3,100)

While the Browns’ defense has been a pretty average unit so far in 2021, they get the Detroit Lions in Week 11, who we know can’t seem to formulate any type of offense. The Lions give up the seventh-most fantasy points to defenses, and Cleveland should capitalize on an easy matchup and return solid fantasy points for the bargain that they’re at.
