This year's fantasy football regular season is quickly coming to an end. Hopefully, your squad is nothing like my injury-plagued roster, and you have an actual chance to make the playoffs in December. Know what can help you lock down that postseason bid? Grabbing a few week 11 waiver wire sleepers, including the league's most underrated kicker and Drew Brees' new target at receiver.

I will continue to shout from the rooftops about Fairbairn until the 2018 fantasy football year is complete.
For some reason, folks continue to leave him on the wire despite ranking sixth in the NFL at 8.7 points per game among kickers and tied for third for the most field goal attempts on the year.

Brandon Marshall — New Orleans Saints

What a shame Dez Bryant went down with an ACL injury just before the Saints matchup on Sunday with the Bengals. Watching him and Brees on the field could have been a treat.
New Orleans countered the Bryant injury by adding league veteran Brandon Marshall. It's hard to know what he has left in the tank, but how can you pass on any Drew Brees target? If anything, he's worth a stash headed into the final month.

If Marshall is unavailable in your league, another substantial stash could be former BYU QB Taysom Hill. According to 247Sports, Mr. Versatility has lined up at quarterback 54 times, running back 7, wide receiver and tight end 52, and special teams 202 for a total of 315 snaps on the year.
It could just be a matter of time before he finds the end zone again as he did during a Monday Night Football rout of the Redskins in October.

Frank Gore — Miami Dolphins

If you're in the unenviable position like me where the majority of your running backs are out for the season, Gore could be a sneaky pickup to get you the points needed to make the playoffs. The Dolphins are on a bye this week but will face a shaky Colts' defense in week 12 and a who-knows-what-to-expect opponent in the Bills the following week.
Although he hasn't found the end zone yet, Gore has out-touched fellow RB Kenyan Drake 36-17 the past two games and nearly captured his second 100-yard-plus performance on Sunday when he gobbled up 90 yards on 13 carries.
