DFS: Shaping Your Week 11 Lineups

DFS: Shaping Your Week 11 Lineups

Kyle Terada / USA TODAY Sports

Here are theScore's sample lineups for Week 11 of the NFL season (Thursday night game excluded):

GPP Without FLEX

POSITION NAME OPPONENT
QB Russell Wilson (SEA) vs. SF
RB DeMarco Murray (PHI) vs. TB
RB Doug Martin (TB) at PHI
WR Calvin Johnson (DET) vs. OAK
WR Randall Cobb (GB) at MIN
WR Brandon LaFell (NE) vs. BUF
TE Jimmy Graham (SEA) vs. SF
K Matt Bryant (ATL) vs. IND
D/ST Eagles vs. TB

The stack of Wilson and Graham should see low ownership as the two continue to struggle. Johnson is the elite receiver on this roster with a soft matchup against Oakland. Cobb and LaFell see enough targets to be effective. Running backs Murray and Martin are major parts of their teams' offenses and should see 20 touches each. -- Josh Ghatak

Cash Game Without FLEX

POSITION NAME OPPONENT
QB Derek Carr (OAK) at DET
RB Jonathan Stewart (CAR) vs. WAS
RB Darren McFadden (DAL) at MIA
WR Julio Jones (ATL) vs. IND
WR Amari Cooper (OAK) at DET
WR John Brown (ARI) vs. CIN
TE Tyler Eifert (CIN) at ARI
K Blair Walsh (MIN) vs. GB
D/ST Bears vs. DEN

There is a dearth of plum matchups this week; all four bye teams (Giants, Saints, Steelers, Browns) are bottom-10 in passing yards allowed. Carr and Cooper are young but Detroit's defense has been porous. Brown and Eifert are solid plays in Arizona's big game against the Bengals. The Bears' D has a plus matchup against Broncos backup Brock Osweiler. -- Andrew Potter

GPP With FLEX

POSITION NAME OPPONENT
QB Jay Cutler (CHI) vs. DEN
RB Marshawn Lynch (SEA) vs. SF
RB Lamar Miller (MIA) vs. DAL
WR Mike Evans (TB) at PHI
WR Larry Fitzgerald (ARI) vs. CIN
WR Michael Crabtree (OAK) at DET
TE Jacob Tamme (ATL) vs. IND
FLEX Sammy Watkins (BUF) at NE
D/ST Eagles vs. TB

Cutler against the Broncos should be considered a contrarian play, making him an ideal GPP candidate. Lynch and Miller are consistent but aren't the usual suspects at RB, especially with Lynch's injury concern. Fitzgerald may not be owned as much as he gets his second tough pass D in a row. Crabtree is the No. 2 option in Oakland and may fly under the radar. -- Jason Wilson

Cash Game With FLEX

POSITION NAME OPPONENT
QB Derek Carr (OAK) at DET
RB Charcandrick West (KC) at SD
RB Adrian Peterson (MIN) vs. GB
WR Danny Amendola (NE) vs. BUF
WR Michael Crabtree (OAK) at DET
WR Sammy Watkins (BUF) at NE
TE Antonio Gates (SD) vs. KC
FLEX Devonta Freeman (ATL) vs. IND
D/ST Seahawks vs. SF

Carr has been consistent over the last four weeks, throwing for 300 yards or close to it with multiple TDs each game. He's been paired with Crabtree to take on Detroit's bottom-third-ranked pass defense. West has had three strong showings since becoming the starter, while Peterson is as consistent as ever. Amendola should ably fill in for Julian Edelman. -- Ken Conrad
