Rondale Moore or Curtis Samuel: Who is a better fantasy pick?

For fantasy managers who are unsure who to pick between Rondale Moore and Curtis Samuel in Week 11, let's go through their fantasy appeal for this week.

To put it simply, Rondale Moore is the better fantasy pick between the two for Week 11. It is wise to start the slot wide receiver in fantasy games when facing the San Francisco 49ers' defensive line.

Players like Olamide Zaccheaus, Cooper Kupp, Marquez Valdes-Scanting, DJ Moore, Shi Smith, JuJu Smith-Schuster, and DeAndre Carter have all scored, at least, 10 fantasy points against the 49ers over their last six games. All these players have one characteristic in common: they frequently run routes out of the slot.

Over the past two games, Rondale Moore has run over half of his routes out of the slot and is recording an average of 10.3 targets per game. This should imply that Moore must start against the 49ers in Week 11.

Curtis Samuel will play against the Houston Texans in Week 11. The Texans have given wideouts the third-smallest fantasy points per game and the second-smallest receiving yards this campaign.

Samuel's aim percentage will not improve with Jahan Dotson returning from injury. He has already seen approximately four targets in each of the previous three games. Samuel's fantasy potential is insufficient to justify starting him in this game.

Rondale Moore's fantasy prediction for Week 11

Rondale Moore hasn't had a fantasy point total below WR16 since Week 8. In every game so far this season, he has been targeted in the red zone.

Moore should be enjoying yet another outstanding game. In two of his most recent three games, he has recorded more than 90 receiving yards. Zach Ertz's injury will only increase his output in this attack.

Curtis Samuel's fantasy prediction for Week 11

Curtis Samuel was elevated to a full participant and his name has been taken off the official injury list since Friday. Without any setbacks, he'll play against the Texans in Week 11.

All 10 of this season's games have featured Samuel, who has caught 47 receptions for 483 yards and three scores. Without a doubt, he is not the best bet in fantasy football this week, but he has had enough targets and touches to qualify as a flex alternative.

He faces a Texans secondary that ranks third against WRs as a low-upside WR3.
