Fantasy Football Projections, Week 11: How Do The Cowboys Look?

Dude, seriously, start me in fantasy this week, I promise to hook you up.

CBSSports.com is SB Nation's fantasy football partner.

So how has your fantasy football season been going? A lot better than the Cowboys actual season, I hope. My season is remarkably average; two leagues, identical 5-5 records in both.

How do the Cowboys players project in fantasy this Sunday? We checked CBSSports.com projections.

#6 QB: Jon Kitna - Kitna has become a hot name for rosters that have QB problems. The Cowboys offense turned yards into points against the Giants, and Kitna's numbers were sparkling. The number six ranked QB may be a little high, but the Lions defense can be had if you can get the front blocked.

More projections below..

Star-divide

#16 RB: Felix Jones - Finally, a Cowboys running back is deserving of a respectable ranking. Jones' efforts last week were rewarded, his 71-yard burst for a TD and his feature back status have propelled him back into the rankings.

#45 RB: Marion Barber - Looks like Barber is the short-yardage and 'closer' back in Garrett's scheme, his fantasy value will rely on scavenging short touchdowns.

#11.WR: Dez Bryant - We all know what Bryant has done, supplanting Miles Austin as the Cowboys top producing receiver. Kitna and Bryant have chemistry, and Dez finds himself knocking on the door of fantasy (and real) stardom.

#13 WR: Miles Austin - His targets are down, but he can still produce. Last week he scored a TD that largely went unnoticed by everyone except the coaching staff, who gave him an "atta-boy". We've been blinded by Dez, but Austin is still very dangerous.

#51 WR: Roy E. Williams - After a hot start and renewed production when combining with Tony Romo, Roy's numbers have fallen dramatically. He's still making some good plays, but the opportunities are going to other guys.

#9 TE: Jason Witten - Witten had a mini-resurgence when Kitna started, but that connection has cooled recently. Witten seemed to spend a lot of time helping the protection last week, we'll see if Garrett unleashes him this week.

#13 K: David Buehler - Buehler has looked shaky recently after a pretty consistent run, and even Garrett said he was being evaluated.

#16 D/ST: Dallas Cowboys - The Cowboys defense has been a disappointment, to say the least, but a very strong showing against the Giants, including scoring on their own, has raised their fantasy profile just a tad.

Dave what happen to the Q&A with Detriot pride?

I love that segment and then going over to their site and reading your answers

Dunno

I was surprised nothing panned out. The only inter-team discussion I’ve seen is the one fanpost I made, and to my knowledge I was the only Lions fan on it.

It’s likely our editor (Sean Yuille) is busy. College student, I believe.

I really wanna start Dez

Unfortunately/Fortunately I have Calvin Johnson/Andre Johnson as my starters and Desean Jackson as a flex…..Also gotta question for everyone out there. Should I start Felix over Thomas Jones (who’s going against the woeful Cards)

i would seriously consider starting dez over andre

i know that sounds risky, but aj is going up against a healthy revis who held him in check last time they met and schaub has been in the hospital this week for god’s sake lol. high risk situation despite him being the stud WR, he’s had his down weeks this year and this well could be another one.

and dez is looking like the stud we all thought he could be. last 3 weeks #7 WR in fantasy, right behind johnson. and two of those games were when the whole rest of the team besides him was being inept. if the Age of Garrett continues anything like it started with the most efficient passing offense in terms of yards per completion for any team in the league since 2000 (!), dez is near must start. this week with the matchups it’s not crazy to think he’s a better play than johnson.

i’m starting dez this week.

and i’m playing felix too. i would start him over thomas jones if i had him. he’s generally higher ranked, so you wouldn’t be crazy for that either.
