Week 15 DraftKings DFS GPP Plays

Quarterback Plays

Jayden Daniels, Commanders $7,500

I think the Commanders could put up 30 plus points in this one. Daniels has averaged 29 points over his last two games and I think he will rush one in here.

Kyler Murray, Cardinals $6,000

Murray has averaged 18 points over his last two games and the Patriots should be an easier matchup. The Cardinals have a 26-point team total meaning that Murray could be involved in 3 to 4 touchdowns.

Justin Herbert, Chargers $5,900

The Chargers struggle running the football but have no problem passing it which is great considering they are facing a terrible Tampa pass defense. Don’t be surprised if Herbert throws for 300 yards and at least two touchdowns.

Will Levis, Titans $5,000

The Bengals’ pass defense stinks. Levis has had some solid games, and if he were ever to win a slate, this would be the week.

• Justin Herbert, Chargers $5,900

Running Back Plays

Saquon Barkley, Eagles $8,600

I know the Steelers have a good defense, but they can be run on by good teams. I expect the Eagle’s offensive line to push the Steelers around in a route. The DFS Hero Optimizer projects Barkley’s ownership to be under 15% which is a nice bonus for a player who I think scores 25 points.

Joe Mixon, Bengals $7,800

The Dolphins haven’t been good stopping the run and we know the Texans will lean on Mixon when they can. He averages over 20 points per game and he should get there with a touchdown this week.

Chase Brown, Bengals $7,200

Browns gets all the running back volume and does it all. He catches passes and we have seen him turn on the jets at the point of attack and tight rope himself into the end zone. He is playing like an 8K back.

Chuba Hubbard, Panthers $6,500

Hubbard is my favorite back on the slate. He had 30 touches last week and is a volume king. He should score against a banged-up Dallas defense.

Rico Dowdle, Cowboys $6,100

The Panthers have struggled against the run and I could see Dowdle get 20 plus carries and a touchdown.

Rhamondre Stevenson, Patriots $5,900

I think the Patriots will score points as they have a projected 20 points total. Stevenson should score.

Rachaad White, Buccaneers $5,800

White is a play if RB Bucky Irving is out. White has scored in 6 of his last 8 games mainly splitting the backfield. If he gets all the volume, then I expect 6 plus catches as the Chargers should lock down the Tampa receivers.

Chuba Hubbard, Panthers $6,500

Chase Brown, Bengals $7,200

Wide Receiver Plays

Tyreek Hill, Dolphins $7,400

My eyes tell me that Hill is back to normal. He has a great matchup vs. a bad Texan pass defense. I think he is a lock for 100 yards.

Terry McLaurin, Commanders $7,200

McLaurin has averaged over 25 points in his last two games. He would be a great stack option with QB Jayden Daniels.

Davante Adams, Jet $6,900

I think QB Aaron Rodgers is going to throw the ball a ton. He likes to pad his stats against weak teams and the Jaguars fit the bill. Expect Adams to get 100 yards and a touchdown. If not him, then

Garrett Wilson $6,500

is a good option as one should pop. You can play both for leverage, as both have been targeted 20 plus times over the last two games.

Ladd McConkey, Chargers $6,300

Ladd has been limited but is close to lock button if he plays. He should easily have 7 plus catches vs. the Tampa soft zone. He should be priced above 7K.

Calvin Ridley, Titans $5,900

The Bengal’s pass defense stinks and I think you must play him in Will Levis lineups for sure and will be a good one off in other lineups.

Adam Thielen, Panthers $5,400

He is QB Bryce Young’s favorite target and doesn’t look old at all. I think he can find his way open for 6 plus catches. WR Xavier Legette $4,700 could be a sneaky option in non-Thielen lineups as I think one will pop.

Amari Cooper, Bills $5,300

Cooper had a whopping 14 targets last week and could have a solid game vs. a shaky Lion’s pass defense. Expect the Bills to throw a lot against a Detroit defense that stops the run. WR Khalil Shakir $6,100 would be an option in non-Cooper lineups.

WR Devaughn Vele, Broncos $4,200

The Colts play a zone defense that I think Vele can get open in. I think 6 catches for 60 yards is within reach, and he can make the winning lineups with a touchdown.

Top Two DFS Hero Valued WR Plays

• Brian Thomas Jr., Jaguars $5,800
• Tee Higgins, Bengals $6,800

Tight End Plays

Trey McBride, Cardinals $6,000

McBride is limited in practice but is expected to play. The DFS Hero Optimizer projects him to lead all tight ends in scoring, and as mentioned, I already like Kyler Murray and the Cardinal offense in what could be a high-scoring game.

Travis Kelce, Chiefs $5,700

I expect 10 plus targets for Kelce against a team that isn’t great at stopping the tight end. This could be a 20-point game.

Jake Ferguson, Cowboys $3,800

The Panthers are dead last vs. the tight end. Expect QB Cooper Rush to get the ball in his hands on some high percentage throws.

Dalton Schultz, Texans $3,300

Schultz scored 17 points in his last game and is a much better player than his price. The Dolphins are mediocre against the tight end.

Stone Smartt, Chargers $2,600

TE Will Dissly is out, and it is expected that Smartt will see a ton of action. He had 3 catches for 54 yards and could break the slate if he scores.
