10 weeks of NFL play are officially in the books, which means bye weeks are in full swing. Gone are the days where you could just coast by on a strong draft. Now more than ever, you\u2019ll need to search the waiver wire for all the best available wide receivers. Heading into Week 11, you should set your eyes on\u00a0Dede Westbrook<\/a>, Demaryius Thomas<\/a>,\u00a0<\/strong>Darius Slayton<\/a>,\u00a0<\/strong>and\u00a0Andy Isabella<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Note that in order to make this list, the player had to be available in over 50% of fantasy leagues. If you\u2019re in smaller leagues, there may be better players available. Make sure to check your waivers to see if there are any diamonds in the rough before submitting your claims.<\/p>\n

Week 11 Waiver Wire Claims – Running Back<\/a> – Quarterback<\/a> – Tight End<\/a> – Defense<\/a><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Dede Westbrook, Demaryius Thomas Highlight Fantasy Football Week 11 Wide Receiver Waiver Wire Claims<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Dede Westbrook<\/h3>\n

Westbrook is owned in 49% of NFL.com fantasy leagues, so he is just barely eligible for this list. Westbrook had a decent amount of offseason hype, but his hype train went off the rails when Nick Foles<\/a><\/strong> suffered his collarbone injury. Foles has an established history of targeting slot receivers and targeted Westbrook at a ridiculous rate in the preseason. Gardner Minshew<\/a><\/strong> didn\u2019t share the same affinity for slot targets, so Westbrook faded into fantasy irrelevance.<\/p>\n

Nick Foles is back under center<\/a>, which means Westbrook is back to being an interesting fantasy weapon. As someone who was completely in on the Dede Westbrook hype train, you need to grab him if he\u2019s available in your league. Westbrook has played well this year, and his target share should dramatically increase with Foles running the offense. Dede Westbrook is an easy Week 11 stream and could easily be a week-in, week-out starter for the rest of the season.<\/p>\n

Demaryius Thomas<\/h3>\n

Turns out Demaryius Thomas is still good at football. After an early-season trade, Thomas finally seems comfortable in the Jets offense and has a safe, dependable target share. In Week 10, Thomas recorded six receptions for 84 yards on nine targets, leading the team in all three categories. While he didn\u2019t make his way into the endzone, the fact Sam Darnold<\/a><\/strong> continued to look his way suggests his success is sustainable.<\/p>\n

Thomas and the Jets face off against an objectively terrible Washington Redskins team in Week 11. The Redskins can\u2019t stop anything through the ground or through the air, so Thomas should have a field day against the overmatched secondary. If you need somebody to throw in your flex spot, you could do a lot worse than Demaryius Thomas.<\/p>\n

Darius Slayton<\/h3>\n

The New York Giants have a Week 11 bye week, so don\u2019t grab Darius Slayton if you\u2019re looking for a one-week stream. That said, Slayton has steadily improved throughout the season and might be the top option in the New York Giants passing attack. In Week 10, the rookie recorded 10 receptions for 121 yards and two touchdowns on 14 targets. While this was easily the best game of his career, this wasn\u2019t the first time he\u2019s had some fantasy relevance. The rookie has recorded at least four targets in six of his last eight games and is getting better on a weekly basis.<\/p>\n

Sterling Shepard<\/a><\/strong> isn\u2019t coming back any time soon, and Daniel Jones<\/a><\/strong> clearly trusts Slayton, especially in the red zone. Slayton already has five touchdown receptions and has exceeded 84% of the snaps in each of the past five games. He\u2019ll remain fantasy-relevant for the rest of the season and is easily worth carrying through the bye week.<\/p>\n

Deep Leagues: Andy Isabella<\/h3>\n

The consistency isn\u2019t there for Isabella, but he\u2019s slowly improving his snap percentage as he gains the trust of the coaching staff. He should see his role grow in time, and his speed gives him a chance to make a big play every time he touches the ball. Stash him if you have an extra bench spot or two.<\/p>\n
