We keep pointing it out, but there is, once again, no way around the ‘stars-and-scrubs’ approach to Sunday’s games. As usual, there are also plenty of ‘sleepers’ and undervalued targets to help fill out the rest of our rosters.
Based on our expected Week 15 DFS game flow analysis and Week 15 DFS Overview published 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
Derek Carr – Derek Carr was a reasonable target entering this season as he appears to stand near the top of the NFC in terms of quarterback play. Between injuries and mediocre outputs, Carr has fallen off-the-map for us and the fantasy football community. Still, the New Orleans Saints are tied for first place in their division — albeit, with a disappointing record — and they face a hot, but extremely beatable New York Giants team. There is a nice opportunity here for the Saints’ offense to get back on track thanks to Carr leading the way.
