BALLER MOVE: Sit
POSITIONAL VALUE: WR5
ANALYSIS: Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Diontae Johnson is (unfortunately) not worth starting in Week 11. After being a great option most weeks with the Carolina Panthers, he was traded to the worst possible team for fantasy managers, one that barely uses him now.
#Ravens HC John Harbaugh says he expects Diontae Johnson’s workload to ramp up

He might be worth holding in some leagues, but he played just 30% of snaps in Week 9 and 8% in Week 10. He's caught one pass for six yards in his two games with his new team. Unlike with the Panthers, his new team has plenty of options to run the offense through, and he's no longer a priority.
Even if he does get a full workload, he'll have to compete with tight ends Mark Andrews and Isaiah Likely (hamstring) and wide receivers Zay Flowers, Rashod Bateman, and apparently Tylan Wallace for targets. It doesn't help that he's on an offense that really loves to run the ball, unsurprisingly so.
Leave him on the bench or as a free agent for now. There's not much upside as it stands until something changes.
