7 Deep Fantasy Football Sleepers for Week 11
Eli Manning has a super soft matchup with the Bucs on Sunday. What other low-owned options are worth a play in Week 11?

Adam Humphries, WR, Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Yahoo! Ownership: 15%

Your current team leader in passing yards this season is not the Kansas City Chiefs or Los Angeles Rams, as you would expect, but is the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Averaging over 360 passing yards per game, Ryan Fitzpatrick and the Bucs' passing attack have been valuable weapons in fantasy leagues this year. As expected, Mike Evans leads the the club in all receiving categories. However, in the last four weeks, Adam Humphries has emerged as a fantasy asset himself.

Since Week 7, Humphries has amassed 30 targets, the ninth-most of all receivers in the NFL. They haven’t been empty looks, either, as the fourth-year wideout has 21 catches for 248 yards and 2 scores. He has even outscored Evans in PPR leagues during this stretch -- 58.5 to 58.3 fantasy points -- to finish as the WR10.

This Sunday, Humphries is poised for his role to expand a bit as Chris Godwin and his 6.0 targets per game are looking doubtful to suit up against the Giants. While New York has been one of the better teams against wideouts -- allowing the fifth-fewest fantasy points to the position -- our metrics rank the Giants’ pass defense in the bottom-11 of the NFL.

If Godwin is indeed out, fire up Humphries wherever you can, especially in PPR formats.
