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.
Nico Collins has been out for several weeks with a hamstring injury, and is now on the verge of returning in Week 11. Stefon Diggs was also lost for the season with a torn ACL, and Tank Dell was the last man standing recently. He did see more targets and catches the past couple of weeks, but will it continue in Week 11 with the expected return of Collins? Let's take a look at the last few weeks:
- Week 8 - 4 targets, 4 catches, 35 yards, 1 TD, 13.50 FPTS (PPR)
- Week 9 - 9 targets, 6 catches, 126 yards, 18.6 FPTS (PPR)
- Week 10 - 9 targets, 5 catches, 39 yards, 8.3 FPTS (PPR)
Last week was not an inspiring performance, and alpha WR Nico Collins should return this week. It feels like Dell will get less targets and less fantasy points, making him a mediocre fantasy football option for Week 11 lineups.
There are bye weeks, and rosters have been thinned out by injuries, so starting Dell as a WR3 or FLEX option in 10+ team leagues is not out of the question.

Another possibility is that Collins comes back this week, gets plenty of defensive attention, and things open up for Dell down the stretch. While that can be a possible outcome, I wouldn't take the chance to find out in Week 11 unless I had to. Preferred to leave Dell on the bench in wait-and-see mode if you can, but can understand starting him with lower expectations if needed.
