Week 15 brings an interesting mix of targets from both the high-end and bargain bin. This not because of the need for a stars-and-scrubs approach, however, as a balanced lineup is certainly possible. It is due to the wild fluctuation in prices and injury impact as the season approaches its close.
Based on our expected Week 15 DFS game flow analysis performed earlier, we can carry our thoughts into actual lineup positions. The long list of players that fit the requirements set forth by the projected flow of the game was cut dramatically by the requirements set forth by salaries.
Below are Sporfolio’s DFS Week 15 Plays:
Quarterback
Aaron Rodgers – When one of the best quarterbacks of this generation is priced below Josh Allen, we need to take notice. Granted, it makes sense why Aaron Rodgers is so inexpensive, this week, as the matchup with Chicago’s defense is quite poor. Still, Rodgers has his team alive in the playoff race and with a relatively easy road after this week. We have seen Rodgers elevate the team around him in the past, and the Packers will likely be sent home with a loss if Rodgers isn’t outstanding on Sunday. Again, the salary is simply too good to ignore, making the production needed to return decent value relatively low.
