Who Should I Start? DeAndre Hopkins or Christian McCaffrey

Saturday, November 15, 8:00 AM

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins could be on the docket for some added targets in Week 11 with Rashod Bateman (ankle) officially sidelined. Hopkins hasn't really seen many targets since the first two weeks of the season, but he did show he still has the ability to make some tough catches in traffic when needed. Their opponent, the Cleveland Browns, is one of the tougher units against opposing receivers, though. They allow 30.12 fantasy points per game to opposing receiving groups with a total of 1,118 yards and 10 touchdowns. Hopkins is still projected outside of the top 50 at receiver despite Bateman missing the game, so he would be quite the dart throw option as a flex, even in deeper leagues.

San Francisco 49ers running back Christian McCaffrey had 13 carries for 81 rushing yards and two rushing touchdowns during Sunday's Week 11 win over the Arizona Cardinals. He also caught five of his six targets for an additional 40 receiving yards and one receiving touchdown. The superstar running back continues to demonstrate excellence as a rusher and receiver, and his big game officially propelled him past Jonathan Taylor for the overall RB1 spot (PPR) through 11 weeks. Given that he was a late-first-round pick in most redraft leagues this year, managers are getting even more than they expected from the 29-year-old. He remains a must-start RB1 for Week 12 against his old team, the Carolina Panthers.
