QB Vince Young, Tennessee Titans
Vince Young doesn’t get much respect in the fantasy world. Fantasy owners don’t like his style of play or his relatively low ceiling. But this week, Young is a quality start. He’s in his hometown of Houston and his Titans are hot. Expect him to produce at a high level.

RB Mike Bell, New Orleans Saints
In recent weeks, Mike Bell has been quiet. But an easy matchup against the Buccaneers is juicy. Add in the fact that Reggie Bush will miss the game and Bell should at least provide you with one rushing touchdown.

WR Mohamed Massaquoi, Cleveland Browns
Remember him? After a huge week earlier in the season, Mohamed Massaquoi has all but disappeared in the swamp that is supposedly the offensive unit for the Browns. But going against the Lions, the team’s top wide receiver has to do something … right?

TE David Thomas, New Orleans Saints
No, not the Wendy’s guy. This David Thomas is the other tight end on the Saints. Last week he had five catches and could see another handful of catches this week because — well the Bucs are horrible.

QB Chris Simms, Denver Broncos
Kyle Orton hurt his ankle and Chris Simms played the second half. Although he was bad, Simms has a decently high ceiling going forward. He has good receivers and a coach that seems to know what he’s doing.

RB Justin Forsett, Seattle Seahawks
Julius Jones has a broken rib that is causing bleeding in his lung. Justin Forsett, a fan favorite among Seahawks fans, will step in while Jones is out. This week he showed what he could do by totaling 123 rushing yards on only 17 attempts.

RB Jason Snelling, Atlanta Falcons
Michael Turner was injured in Week 10 and now the door looks to be open for Jason Snelling. He played well after Turner went out this week and has looked good all season. Pick him up if he’s available. If he isn’t, Jerious Norwood might be a sleeper to emerge here if Turner is out for an extended period of time.

RB Bernard Scott, Cincinnati Bengals
Cedric Benson had been enjoying a fantastic season before getting injured on Sunday. If he is going to miss any action, Bernard Scott will likely fill in. Scott doesn’t have a high ceiling but he’d be a solid plugin.

WR Maurice Stovall, Tampa Bay Buccaneers
The Bucs are facing a combination of injuries and poor performing players in their wide receiving corps. As it stands, Maurice Stovall may be the best option. He’s been good in the last two games and finished with four catches, 47 yards and a touchdown this week.

RB DeAngelo Williams, Carolina Panthers
Early in the season, it appeared as if DeAngelo Williams would never live up to his expectations. Now, Williams is regarded as one of the best fantasy football running backs in 2008. In Week 11, Williams finished the game with two touchdowns and 120 yards rushing on 14 attempts. Combining with Jonathan Stewart, the Panthers have a very formidable one-two punch.

WR TJ Houshmandzadeh, Cincinnati Bengals
Even thought the Bengals have been a big disappointment and quarterback Carson Palmer has missed a lot of time, TJ Houshmandzadeh has actually been quite good. He still has been able to get open and he still has very good hands. He finished this week’s game with 12 catches for 149 yards and a touchdown receptions. If it wasn’t clear last year, it’s clear this year — Houshmandzadeh is simply a better wide receiver than Chad Johnson.

TE Benjamin Watson, New England Patriots
Cassel’s main target against the Jets was tight end Benjamin Watson. Watson has very good ability to go along with great size and athleticism, however he’s had a difficult time putting it all together. For a week, at least, he did just that. He finished Week 11 with eight catches for 88 yards and a touchdown grab to be the top fantasy football tight end for the week.

RB Cedric Benson, Cincinnati Bengals
While he doesn’t have a very good matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles, Cedric Benson is coming off of one of the best games of his career. With Carson Palmer still out injured, Benson will get plenty of touches in the Bengals’ offense. He very well could score a touchdown this week and end up with a decent amount of yards.

WR Chris Chambers, San Diego Chargers
After a very strong start to the season, Chris Chambers has struggled with injuries. But now he’s as healthy as he’s been in weeks and should be able to get back to his old ways. With his speed back, he’s going to be a deep ball threat for the rest of the season. In Week 11, expect Chambers to once again be a big part of the Chargers offense.

TE Marcedes Lewis, Jacksonville Jaguars
Don’t look now but Marcedes Lewis has had at least three catches in each of his last four games. Last week, Lewis even led the Jaguars in receiving yards. As he continues to become a bigger and bigger part of the Jacksonville offense, his fantasy football value in 2008 will continue to rise.

RB Frank Gore, San Francisco 49ers
Although the St. Louis Rams showed a little bit of life a couple weeks ago, they seem to have reversed a bit. Against the New York Jets last weekend, they got demolished — with a lot of the damage coming from running back Thomas Jones. That’s why Frank Gore is such a good start this week. Gore has played very well this week and this juicy matchup has him at the top of the running back list in Week 11.

WR Steve Smith, Carolina Panthers
When it comes to bad defenses, it doesn’t get much worse than the Detroit Lions. The Lions will face off against the Panthers this week, which likely means a big game for Steve Smith. Smith will draw a lot of attention, no doubt, but Detroit still won’t be able to stop him. The only way Smith doesn’t explode is if the Panthers are up early and stop passing the ball.

TE Tony Gonzalez, Kansas City Chiefs
Tony Gonzalez has a very good matchup this weekend against the New Orleans Saints. With Tyler Thigpen playing very well at quarterback, Gonzalez is now a threat to have a big game each and every week. Coming off of a quality fantasy football performance, look for him to follow it up with more big numbers in Week 11 of the fantasy season.

QB Tyler Thigpen, Kansas City Chiefs
Entering the 2008 fantasy football season, Tyler Thigpen was the third quarterback on the Chiefs depth chart. Now Thigpen has ascended to the starting spot and he’s producing very well. He appears to be a legit quarterback and is very likely Kansas City’s QB of the future. Pick him up now and he can serve as a quality fantasy football option depending on the matchup.

RB Peyton Hillis, Denver Broncos
Although he’s more of a fullback, Peyton Hillis should become the new running back for the Broncos. Injuries to Selvin Young, Michael Pittman, Andre Hall and Ryan Torain have opened the door for Hillis to get a shot. As any fantasy football veteran can tell you, picking up the right Broncos running back at the right time can lead to big things.

WR Mark Bradley, Kansas City Chiefs
With Thigpen delivering him the ball, Mark Bradley has emerged as a quality fantasy football wide receiver option. In fact, with as hot as he currently is, he’s a player you need to get into your starting lineup. Once he gets the ball in his hands, he can use his quicks to make plays and score touchdowns.

TE Kevin Boss, New York Giants
For the third consecutive week, Kevin Boss scored a touchdown. He’s emerging as one of Eli Manning’s favorite targets, especially around the endzone. With as well as he has been playing in recent weeks, Boss certainly can start on your 2008 fantasy football team.
