Fantasy Football Rankings: Wide Receivers in Week 11

Ranking the best wide receivers by matchup and opportunity for Week 11.

NFL: New York Giants at Philadelphia Eagles Eric Hartline-USA TODAY Sports

Slowly but surely, the wide receiver position in fantasy football is solidifying. Take everything you thought you knew before the season and throw it out the window, because receivers like Jordy Nelson and Kelvin Benjamin have devolved into unusable assets.

Waiver wire pickups like Sterling Shepard, Robert Woods and JuJu Smith-Schuster are carrying some fantasy teams right now, and that’s likely to continue through the fantasy playoffs.

Fantasy football cares not for anyone: no position is safe. By no stretch of the imagination is the wide receiver position as bad as running back was in 2016, but it’s been rather frustrating this season compared to the past.

With all that said, let’s rank the best plays at wide receiver for Week 11!
