Pierre Garcon was one of several Redskins players who surprised this week

David Johnson and Le’Veon Bell were both terrific as expected, but it was Robert Kelley of the Washington Redskins who stole the show with three touchdowns on Monday night football. The entire Redskins’ offense outperformed expectations this week along with surprise players like Malcolm Mitchell and Jared Cook. Some experts were able to forecast several of these breakouts, separating themselves from the field.  As always, you can check out the entire standings in our accuracy section.

Congratulations to Tehol Beddict (Razzball) who is on fire right now, having finished #4 in Week 10 and now #1 for Week 11 out of over 140 experts. Tehol had a dominant week, finishing 2nd at ranking quarterbacks accuratley, 1st for running backs and 8th for tight ends. Some of Tehol’s top picks included Kirk Cousins, Robert Kelley and Dez Bryant. Cousins finished the week as the QB #3, but the expert consensus was low on him, ranking him QB #9. Tehol had the insight to grade Cousins as his #4 quarterback last week. Likewise, Kelley was the top running back of the week with 31.7 fantasy points. Tehol ranked him RB #13, while the rest of the experts forecasted him as the RB #17. Dez was also the top performer at his position, finishing with 20 standard league fantasy points, and Tehol remarkably ranked him WR #4, while the consensus had him at WR #8.

Jake Ciely (Roto Experts) did what he needed in Week 11 and will have to continue to do so in order to catch season-long leader, Sean Koerner (STATS). Ciely found his way back into the top-five for week 11 while Koerner was down at #31, which is an impressive week for most people, but a rough one for Sean who has finished in the top ten more than a handful of times already on the young season. It is worth noting that Koerner is now #2 at forecasting running backs, #2 for wide receivers and #2 for tight ends. He is having a truly remarkable season! Both Dave Major (XN Sports) and John Paulsen (4for4.com) made important moves towards sliding up, finishing 13th and 8th for the week. Scout Fantasy’s Staff Rankings made it’s way back into the top ten this week, which was enough to make them the only newcomer to the season-long top-ten.
