This kind of target share is what fantasy managers crave, especially in PPR formats. With Gardner Minshew II remaining under center for the Raiders, the receiver should continue seeing steady opportunities in Week 11.
The matchup against the Miami Dolphins may seem challenging at first glance, as the Dolphins have allowed the sixth-fewest fantasy points per game to wide receivers this season.
However, there are exploitable cracks in their secondary. Over their last three games, the Dolphins have surrendered three receiving touchdowns to wide receivers.
Should I Start Jakobi Meyers in Week 11?
In their Week 10 matchup with the Los Angeles Rams, Miami allowed 232 receiving yards to wideouts on 21 receptions from 31 targets. While Meyers may not be on the same level as Puka Nacua or Cooper Kupp, his workload and talent make him a strong play this week.

The 28-year-old is a dependable option for fantasy managers, especially in a game where the Raiders may need to rely on the passing attack to keep up with Miami's high-scoring offense.
His consistent volume and role in the red zone make him a safe and productive start in Week 11. Lock him into your lineup confidently as a solid WR2 or high-end flex option.
