BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues and as Handcuff
ROSTERED IN: 15% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Baltimore Ravens running back Keaton Mitchell is finally healthy again, and made his debut in a Week 10 Thursday Night game against the Cincinnati Bengals. He played just 3% of snaps and didn't log a touch, though he did have one kick return. But Ravens head coach John Harbaugh indicated he'll get more involved soon.
John Harbaugh said Keaton Mitchell's role will continue to expand on offense after his first game back.

He has absolutely elite acceleration. It's nearly unrivaled in the NFL. Fantasy managers shouldn't expect him to get a ton of touches, but he can produce well with just a few. He's not in RB3/FLEX territory right now -- we'll need to see how much work he gets. But he's worth a bench spot simply for his upside.

He's a jack of the trade of sending defensive backfields into absolute chaos as he exploits small gaps in the coverage and bursts through them with frightening quickness. He's a nightmare matchup for linebackers, who simply cannot keep up with him. Even most NFL DBs have a hard time catching him.
In honor of Keaton Mitchell responding to my tweet, here's him out running every person on the football field for a touchdown 💜 #ravensflock pic.twitter.com/Fa3MCYtvro

BALLER MOVE: Start in 10-12+ team leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: WR3 / FLEX with upside ANALYSIS: With so many injuries to the Texans wide receivers, we expected a big uptick in fantasy production from Tank Dell over the past few weeks, but he did not fully deliver.

Mack Hollins (WR, BUF) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 11
BALLER MOVE: Don't Add ROSTERED IN: 3% of Leagues ANALYSIS: It's still not a good idea to use a waiver claim or even a bench spot on Buffalo Bills wide receiver Mack Hollins. He caught all four of his targets for 86 yards last week, but that performance was the exception rather than the rule […]

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 20% of Leagues ANALYSIS: The waiver period has passed, but Los Angeles Chargers running back Gus Edwards is still only rostered in 20% of Sleeper leagues.

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team PPR Leagues ROSTERED IN: 26% of Leagues ANALYSIS: DeMario Douglas once again led all Patriots wide receivers in receiving yards this past Sunday. New England has been maddeningly inconsistent with their wide receiver usage. However, the one constant has been Douglas. He looks like the team’s best pass catcher […]
Xavier Legette (WR, CAR) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 11
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team PPR Leagues ROSTERED IN: 36% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Legette is coming off a bit of a disappointing game Sunday against the New York Giants. Carolina quarterback Bryce Young has played much better in his two-game return as the starter. This gives some hope for the Carolina passing game with […]
