It’s Wednesday and that means it’s time to start making your start and sit decisions for your fantasy football lineups. One of the best resources to help you is our flex fantasy football rankings for Week 11 of the NFL season. Remember that rankings change throughout the week, so be sure to check our staff rankings for updates.

1. Todd Gurley, LAR vs KC (RB1) — Get ready for fireworks Monday night.

2. Melvin Gordon, LAC vs DEN (RB2) — Gordon is rolling and gets a plus matchup against a Broncos defense that has struggled against the run this season.

3. Saquon Barkley, NYG vs TB (RB3) — His ability as a receiver gives Barkley and enormous weekly floor.

4. Kareem Hunt, KC @ LAR (RB4) — Hunt is coming off somewhat of a down week, but he'll bounce back in a big way against the Rams.

5. Ezekiel Elliott, DAL @ ATL (RB5) — After shredding one of the league's best run defenses, Elliott gets to face one of the league's worst run defenses.

6. David Johnson, ARI vs OAK (RB6) — It took half the season, but Johnson is finally showing why he was a top-five fantasy pick this year.

7. Michael Thomas, NO vs PHI (WR1) — Thomas is on fire and faces a banged-up Eagles secondary. Giddy up.

8. Odell Beckham Jr., NYG vs TB (WR2) — He's coming off a two-score game and gets a matchup upgrade against the Bucs.

9. DeAndre Hopkins, HOU @ WAS (WR3) — Hopkins will see his share of Josh Norman, but it doesn't matter. He's an every-week elite play.

10. Adam Thielen, MIN @ CHI (WR4) — This is a tough matchup for Thielen, but he's still capable of putting up WR1 numbers.

11. Antonio Brown, PIT @ JAC (WR5) — Brown will likely see a shadow from Jalen Ramsey this week.

12. Alvin Kamara, NO vs PHI (RB7) — Kamara's volume has taken a hit with Mark Ingram back, but he's still a front-end RB1 play.

13. Christian McCaffrey, CAR @ DET (RB8) — McCaffrey has been a touchdown machine over his last two games.

14. James Conner, PIT @ JAC (RB9) — The Le'Veon Bell drama is over, but this is a relatively tough matchup for Conner.

15. Tyreek Hill, KC @ LAR (WR6) — Hill has explosive upside in this matchup with an enormous 63-point over/under.

16. Julio Jones, ATL vs DAL (WR7) — Jones has scored in back-to-back games.

17. Davante Adams, GB @ SEA (WR8) — He enters the week just one score away from notching his third-straight season with double-digit touchdowns.

18. Phillip Lindsay, DEN @ LAC (RB10) — Royce Freeman could be back this week, but Lindsay is still in the back-end RB1 conversation with a plus matchup on tap.

19. Travis Kelce, KC @ LAR (TE1) — If you own Kelce, you're one of the rare fantasy players who is sitting pretty at tight end.

20. Aaron Jones, GB @ SEA (RB11) — The Packers finally unleashed Jones last week.

21. Tevin Coleman, ATL vs DAL (RB12) — Coleman is on a bit of a roll and is in play as a fringe RB1 this week.

22. Robert Woods, LAR vs KC (WR9) — Woods screeams upside in this explosive matchup…

23. Brandin Cooks, LAR vs KC (WR10) — …and so does Cooks.

24. Keenan Allen, LAC vs DEN (WR11) — He hasn't been able to recapture last season's upside, but Allen is surging at the right time for fantasy purposes.

25. Leonard Fournette, JAC vs PIT (RB13) — This isn't the best matchup, but Fournette stepped right back into a lead role last week.

26. Joe Mixon, CIN @ BAL (RB14) — Mixon get a terrible draw against the Ravens, but he's still in play as an RB2 option.

27. Dion Lewis, TEN @ IND (RB15) — Lewis remains the lead back ahead of Derrick Henry in Tennessee.

28. JuJu Smith-Schuster, PIT @ JAC (WR12) — Smith-Schuster could benefit from Jalen Ramsey being on Antonio Brown this week.

29. Emmanuel Sanders, DEN @ LAC (WR13) — Sanders is locked in as a fringe WR1 play going forward with Demaryius Thomas out of the mix.

30. Mike Evans, TB @ NYG (WR14) — Evans has been up and down this season, but his high ceiling keeps him in the front-end WR2 conversation.
