Who Should I Start? DeAndre Hopkins or Jordan Addison

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.

While Minnesota Vikings quarterback J.J. McCarthy has had his share of struggles as he adapts to the NFL, wide receiver Jordan Addison accepted blame for Minnesota's issues in the passing game last week. The Vikings dropped six passes in Sunday's loss against Chicago, including two by Addison, both would-be first downs, one of which had a chance to score a long touchdown. "If I make those types of plays, we win. No doubt," Addison said, according to The Athletic. The third-year receiver had two catches for 20 yards and connected with McCarthy on the go-ahead touchdown in the final minute, but the Vikings' lax kick coverage quickly gave up the advantage as the Bears kicked a field goal as time expired. From a fantasy perspective, Addison has now had four straight weeks of fewer than four catches, making him difficult to trust in standard formats for the time being.
