Fantasy Football 2019: Thursday Night Football Start ‘Em, Sit ‘Em Week 11
By Kole Berrey
SIT ‘EM FOR WEEK 11
Baker Mayfield, QB, Cleveland Browns
Baker Mayfield may have a good game. He may also have a disastrous game. If he comes out and scores 25 fantasy points Thursday night, I will still stand by this take. He has been too turnover prone this year to warrant a start.
There are safer options out there. Just stay away, play the match ups, and start a guy like Kirk Cousins. No, seriously. Cousins has been good and is a much better option here.
Vance McDonald, TE, Pittsburgh Steelers
Vance McDonald was a tight end who had huge breakout potential this year. That all changed after the injury of Big Ben and the takeover of Mason Rudolph. Look to start higher upside tight ends like Jacob Hollister or Daren Fells. If you have to start a less than favorable tight end, always go for the one with the better quarterback.
Jaylen Samuels, RB, Pittsburgh Steelers
Jaylen Samuels has turned in some nice games this year. He has also turned in some stinkers. With the return of James Conner, his opportunities could be limited. Look elsewhere for players with a higher ceiling this week.
Hopefully my advice serves you all well this week. Best of luck, fantasy owners!
