Daily Fantasy football: Top 5 DraftKings value plays for Week 11
By Jay Marsdale
No. 5: WR Corey Coleman (CLE) $3,800 vs. Jacksonville
In need of a really cheap option to fit into your lineup? Think about Cleveland wide receiver Corey Coleman this week. Coleman is one of the biggest unknowns of the weekend, but could be the biggest reward if he plays well.
Coleman has not played since breaking a bone in his hand early on this season. However, Coleman and starting quarterback DeShone Kizer seemed to have great chemistry before Coleman’s injury. In his only full game Week 1, Coleman had five catches including one for a touchdown.
If he puts up that exact performance again in Week 11, he will be a steal for daily fantasy football owners. There were some concerns about his playing time coming off of the injury, but those were answered by head coach Hue Jackson. Coleman was ensure a regular workload and that is why he has a real shot at big numbers this weekend.

Coleman has all the talent necessary to dominate this weekend, but his health and tough matchup against Jacksonville are making many skeptical. Jacksonville is one of the best defenses in the league, but as I said earlier, touchdowns and catches still matter for fantasy football even when the game is out of hand.
One garbage-time touchdown or big play from Coleman, and you are in a great spot to win in daily fantasy football this weekend.
