Who Should I Start? DeAndre Hopkins or Luther Burden III

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.

Chicago Bears wide receiver Luther Burden III is starting to ascend as the fantasy playoffs near. Last week, Burden hauled in all three targets for 51 yards, outperforming both D.J. Moore and Olamide Zaccheaus. Something to look into, Burden played 52% of the snaps in Week 10, which was by far his largest snap share of the season. Moore and Zaccheaus saw their snap count dip in Week 10, and if Burden can continue to produce, his role will grow even further. He faces a tough Vikings secondary, which has allowed the eighth fewest fantasy points to wide receivers in 2025. Burden is on the brink of breaking out, but a tough matchup on the slate could hurt his fantasy value in Week 11.
