Underdog Network Publishes Week 11 Fantasy Football Rankings
Underdog Network, a prominent provider of fantasy football analysis, released its Week 11 rankings on Sunday, offering a comprehensive snapshot of player values as the NFL season reaches its midpoint. The list, titled “The Blueprint,” aims to guide managers in making informed decisions for upcoming lineups and waiver wire pickups.
The rankings were compiled using a blend of statistical performance metrics, strength of upcoming opponents, and recent injury reports. Analysts weighted factors such as target share, yards per attempt, and red‑zone efficiency, while also accounting for team offensive trends and schedule difficulty. The methodology is designed to reflect both short‑term upside and longer‑term sustainability, helping players navigate the volatile nature of mid‑season fantasy markets.
Among the notable movements, a handful of running backs climbed into the top ten after delivering multiple 100‑yard games in the past two weeks, while several wide receivers slipped due to recent injuries and tougher defensive matchups. Quarterbacks with consistent passing volumes and favorable upcoming schedules saw modest gains, whereas those facing elite pass defenses were penalized in the rankings.
Industry observers described the updated list as “a useful barometer for managers seeking to fine‑tune their rosters.” Generic experts noted that the rankings align with broader league trends, emphasizing the importance of depth at running back and the growing value of high‑volume pass‑catching receivers as teams increasingly rely on aerial attacks in the second half of the season.
Looking ahead, Underdog Network cautioned that Week 12 could bring further volatility, with several teams entering the playoffs and defensive schemes adjusting to protect leads. Managers are encouraged to monitor weekly injury updates, keep an eye on emerging waiver wire candidates, and use the Blueprint rankings as a baseline while tailoring decisions to their specific league settings.
