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 quarterbacks. Heading into Week 11, you should set your eyes on Nick Foles<\/a>, Sam Darnold<\/a>,\u00a0<\/strong>and\u00a0Kyle Allen<\/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> – Wide Receiver<\/a> – Tight End<\/a> – Defense<\/a><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Nick Foles, Sam Darnold Highlight Fantasy Football Week 11 Quarterback Waiver Wire Claims<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Nick Foles<\/h3>\n

Starting Nick Foles is like a box of chocolates: you never know what you\u2019re going to get. Now that Minshew Mania is officially over, the former Super Bowl MVP is taking back the reigns of the Jacksonville Jaguars offense. At his best, Foles is a fantasy superstar capable of compiling big yardage and a couple touchdowns per game. However, at his worst, Foles struggles to find his targets and can turn the ball over two or three times per game. He really is the NFL\u2019s version of Dr. Jeckyl and Mr. Hyde, and it\u2019s hard to predict when he\u2019ll be good and when he\u2019ll be bad.<\/p>\n

Historically speaking, there\u2019s really no clear tell for which version of Foles you’ll get on a weekly basis. However, if you\u2019re streaming the quarterback position, it\u2019s always best to aim for upside. Quite frankly, nobody on the open market offers more upside than Foles, especially since he\u2019s facing off against the Indianapolis Colts. The Colts defense isn\u2019t anything to write home about, so Foles should have a solid outing.<\/p>\n

Sam Darnold<\/h3>\n

For the first time in a long time, New York Jets quarterback Sam Darnold actually looked comfortable on a football field. The former third overall pick has had a strange 2019 season filled with disease and the paranormal<\/a>, but he should be back on the right track heading forward. Darnold finished Week 10 with 230 passing yards and one touchdown to go along with 25 rushing yards and an additional score.<\/p>\n

Streaming Sam Darnold ultimately comes down to believing in the talent and playing the matchup. The Jets face off against an atrocious Washington Redskins team, so Darnold and company should have no problem moving the ball up and down the field. The talent is still there for Darnold, and he should be a solid stream, even if he doesn\u2019t have the highest upside.<\/p>\n

Kyle Allen<\/h3>\n

Cam Newton<\/a><\/strong> is on the injured reserve, which means this is officially Kyle Allen\u2019s show for the rest of the season. The former undrafted free agent isn\u2019t a superstar by any means, but he\u2019s capable of exploiting the right matchup. Last week, Allen threw for 307 yards, one touchdown, and one interception against the Green Bay Packers, and came inches away from an additional two scores. The Packers defense isn\u2019t a great unit by any means, but they\u2019re considerably better than Allen\u2019s Week 11 opponent, the Atlanta Falcons.<\/p>\n

The Falcons somehow managed to hold Drew Brees<\/a><\/strong> and company to just nine points in Week 10, but that\u2019s probably a one-week fluke. The vast majority of the available data points to this being one of the absolute worst defenses in the NFL. Allen and company should be able to shred the defense through the air, and Matt Ryan<\/a><\/strong>\u2019s arm should ensure this game becomes a high-scoring affair. Allen should be a fringe QB1, which is all you can ask out of a streaming candidate.<\/p>\n
