Wide Receiver Matchups to Target in Week 11: Darius Slayton, Kadarius Toney, Darnell Mooney

Kadarius Toney - Fantasy Football Rankings, Waiver Wire Pickups, Draft Sleepers

Week 11 will be full of exciting and unexpected games like the NFL has given us all year. The NFL has been full of surprises between the Eagles' 8-1 start and the Vikings winning the "game of the year" in OT against the Bills last week.

Hopefully, this DFS article will help you win some money while we watch our favorite teams and players this Sunday. Matchups for the wide receiver position aren't always as black and white as they can be for other positions. Receivers sometimes move around the formation or may face shadow coverage, meaning these matchups need to be broken down deeper based on that data.

Now, here are the top WR vs. CB matchups for Week 11. Use these to set season-long lineups, as well as gain a competitive edge in the DFS games. The matchup data used in this article is from PFF.

Darius Slayton, New York Giants

DraftKings $5000 / FanDuel $6300 - vs. Mike Hughes

Darius Slayton was once the biggest playmaker on the Giants. Slayton was known for his long receptions and speed but faded away over the last year. Slayton looks to be back, having had five receptions or a touchdown in three straight games. Last week against the Texans, Slayton finished with three receptions for 95 yards and a touchdown.

The Giants receiving corps has been struggling this year, with Kenny Golladay, Wan’Dale Robinson, Sterling Shephard, Kadarius Toney, and Daniel Bellinger all sustaining injuries at some point this year. The Giants are up against the Lions this week, who have allowed the seventh most fantasy points to wide receivers this year.

Mike Hughes will likely be the primary defender, who has had an abysmal 46.2 PFF coverage grade this year. Slayton has been very reliable over the past few weeks, and Daniel Jones will likely look his away a lot this week.

 

Brandon Aiyuk, San Francisco 49ers

DraftKings $6500 / FanDuel $6600 - vs. Marco Wilson

Brandon Aiyuk has been one of the most consistent receivers over the past couple of weeks. Aiyuk has gone for over 80 yards in four straight games, with six or more receptions in all four. Aiyuk has been the only person not named Jimmy Garoppolo to benefit from the Christian McCaffrey trade.

Deebo Samuel has seen his usage drop recently, with Aiyuk getting a nice boost. Marco Wilson will likely be the primary defender in this contest, with whom Aiyuk has an excellent 100.0 PFF matchup advantage.

Wilson has allowed 33 receptions this year, off of the ninth most targets (54). With defenses starting to have to account for McCaffrey’s presence, Aiyuk should be able to put together a nice line and go for over 80 yards once again on Monday night.

 

Tee Higgins, Cincinnati Bengals

DraftKings $7100 / FanDuel $7600 - vs. Levi Wallace

Tee Higgins could be in for a nice get-right game against the Pittsburgh Steelers this week. Since Chase has been out with injury (after Week 7), Higgins has garnered seven targets per game and should see a ton this week with Chase out again.

In Week 9, Higgins finished with seven receptions for 60 yards against the Carolina Panthers. This week, Levi Wallace will likely be the primary defender, allowing 15.1 yards per reception to opposing receivers.

Wallace has allowed 13 receptions and over 200 yards over his last three games, and Tee Higgins should be able to put together a monster game. Pittsburgh has allowed the second most fantasy points to wide receivers this year, and Joe Burrow should have a field day against this weak pass defense.

 

Darnell Mooney, Chicago Bears

DraftKings $5400 / FanDuel $6000 - vs. Isaiah Oliver

Darnell Mooney has had a very inconsistent season but could be in for a great spot against the Atlanta Falcons. At this point, any receiver is in for a great matchup against Atlanta. The Falcons have allowed the most receiving yards to opposing receivers this year (2,801), with an average of 7.4 yards per reception.

Justin Fields has gotten going over the past few weeks and could look to take apart the weak Atlanta secondary. Running back Khalil Herbert has been placed on IR recently, likely leading to a more pass-heavy approach this week against the worst pass defense in the league.

Isaiah Oliver will likely be the primary defender with a 56.4 PFF coverage grade this year. Atlanta has given up the most fantasy points to wide receivers, and Mooney should be able to put together a nice stat line this weekend.

 

Gabriel Davis, Buffalo Bills

DraftKings $6300 / FanDuel $7100 - vs. Martin Emerson

Gabriel Davis has been a bit inconsistent this year, but he could be in for another big week this week. Davis finished Week 10 with six receptions for 93 yards and a touchdown against the Minnesota Vikings in what might have been the best game of the year.

Davis has seen his usage go up in the past few weeks. In his first four games of the season, he averaged five targets per game but has seen that rise to seven per game over the last four. There was some big concern this week with Buffalo possibly seeing SIX feet of snow, but luckily the game has been moved to the Lions stadium, which is under a dome.

Martin Emerson will likely be the primary defender this week, with a solid 76.2 PFF coverage grade this year. Despite the good defender, Davis has an excellent 88.0 matchup advantage and should be in for a huge game, especially under a dome. Davis has been pretty boom-or-bust this year, but it looks like it could be a BOOM this week.

 

Kadarius Toney, Kansas City Chiefs

DraftKings $5400 / FanDuel $5800 - vs. Bryce Callahan

Kadarius Toney could be in for a huge Week 11. Toney has only been with the Chiefs for two games so far but has had some elite usage in his limited snaps. Toney has run 23 snaps so far and garnered a target on seven. His 30% target rate is the highest amongst all Chiefs wide receivers in that span, and his 3 yards per route is also the highest.

Last week, Toney finished with four receptions for 57 yards and a touchdown. He has been a fantastic playmaker but has had an injury-riddled career up to this point. After a rough season with the Giants, he will now play with Patrick Mahomes on one of the best offenses in the NFL.

The Chiefs’ wide receiver corps has been pretty banged up lately, with Marquez Valdes-Scantling and JuJu Smith-Schuster questionable for Week 11 and Mecole Hardman placed on IR. Confidently fire up Toney in DFS contests this week.
