Kyler Murray, Arizona Cardinals

Kyler Murray may be hanging out on the waiver wire in smaller leagues. If so, he’s a top QB pickup after he shined in his 2023 NFL debut. Murray looks 100% healthy after delivering a 282-total-yard performance consisting of one rushing touchdown.

Tommy DeVito, New York Giants

Those coming up completely empty-handed at QB might target Tommy DeVito on the Week 11 waiver wire. The Giants will likely be forced to take their game through the air while playing behind at the Washington Commanders next week. Remember that garbage and catchup yards equate to plentiful fantasy points.

Joshua Dobbs, Minnesota Vikings

After a top-10 fantasy QB performance, Joshua Dobbs will be a Week 11 waiver wire priority if he’s still there for the taking. Dobbs held up well against a formidable Saints defense, passing for 268 yards and one TD, while tacking on 44 rushing yards and a score on the ground. Get him while he’s hot!

Running Backs

Ty Chandler, Minnesota Vikings

Ty Chandler is a top Week 11 waiver wire pickup with fellow back Alexander Mattison in concussion protocol. Chandler produced 45 rushing yards and scored a touchdown this past Sunday. If Mattison is unable to clear protocol, Chandler will lead the backfield against Denver up next.

Keaton Mitchell, Baltimore Ravens

If Mitchell is available, he’s worth a pickup in Week 11. Touching the ball only four times, Mitchell made some big plays and recorded 66 total yards and a touchdown this past weekend. Those in a bind to fill a flex spot could do worse than starting Mitchell.

Devin Singletary, Houston Texans

Likely available, Devin Singletary will be a popular Week 11 waiver wire pickup. He turned heads with a massive 161-total-yard performance and scored his first touchdown of the year on Sunday. Perhaps his role increases even when Dameon Pierce (ankle) makes his way back.

Wide Receivers

Brandin Cooks, Dallas Cowboys

Cooks tends to run hot and cold, but he is on record with his highest fantasy performance in in 2023 after the Cowboys put the Giants through the ringer this past Sunday. If 173 receiving yards get your attention, pick up Cooks if he’s on your Week11 waiver wire and hope for the best when the ‘Boys play in Carolina next.

Noah Brown, Houston Texans

Brown has taken advantage of his increased role (minus Nico Collins) and has recorded 325 total yards and a TD over his last two games. He’s the top wide receiver on the Week 11 waiver wire for those lucky enough to still find him available to claim.

Odell Beckham Jr., Baltimore Ravens

Gracing some waiver wires, OBJ is worthy of a flex start in Week 11 after stringing together back-to-back double-digit fantasy performances. He could deliver the goods in his next game facing a Bengals defense that last gave up 268 yards and a touchdown to the Texans’ wideouts this past Sunday.

Quentin Johnston, Los Angeles Chargers

Johnston will be a highly sought-after Week 11 waiver wire pickup coming from his best fantasy football performance of the season. He caught all four of his targets for 34 yards and scored his first rookie TD in that nailbiter of a game against Detroit. Hopefully, the Chargers will continue to keep Johnston more involved down the stretch.

Tight Ends

Luke Musgrave, Green Bay Packers

Musgrave is a top waiver-wire target at TE after he recorded his highest yards to date (64) in Week 10. If you’re streaming tight ends, Musgrave next plays the Chargers who have given up the third-most TE fantasy points this season.

Tyler Conklin, New York Jets

A sleeper at tight end, Conklin has caught a perfect 13 of 13 targets for 136 yards over his last two games. This makes Conklin worth considering in Week 11 if he’s still out there hanging for free on the waiver wire. Zach Wilson seems to trust targeting him.

Trey McBride, Arizona Cardinals

McBride has no business riding the waiver wire and he’s a must-pickup if he is available. Kyler Murray made his long-anticipated return and McBride was his go-to guy. Targeted a team-high nine times, McBride returned eight catches for 131 yards. There is much more goodness to come from this hot, new fantasy duo!
