Dennis Clausen highlights the top FanDuel NFL DFS lineup picks for Week 15 of the 2022 season, and some value sleepers for your daily fantasy football rosters.
It's hard to believe we are at Week 15, but here we are. As the season moves toward the playoffs, this is the time of year where we'll start to see some games on Saturday, which will make the player pool smaller for Sunday's slate. As a result, DFS managers may need to get creative, mainly those looking to take down the larger GPP contests.
In this article, I will be providing you with my Week 15 daily fantasy football lineup picks for FanDuel. These lineups can vary from higher-priced players and elite options to lower-priced players and value picks on FanDuel.

FanDuel Quarterbacks - Week 15 DFS Lineup Picks
Jalen Hurts - @ CHI ($9,000)
Hurts has put together an MVP-caliber year. He’s ran for a touchdown in four of his last five games while compiling at least 29 fantasy points in each of his last three contests. If you exclude Mike White’s magical Week 12 performance, the Bears’ defense has done an adequate job of late against opposing quarterbacks. But considering how hot Hurts has been, he deserves attention in Week 15.
Justin Herbert - vs. TEN ($8,300)
Herbert hasn’t looked like the guy we saw throughout the 2021-22 campaign. In all fairness, he’s been without Keenan Allen and Mike Williams for a significant portion of the year. However, with Allen and Williams back from their respective injuries, it has made all the difference, with Herbert tossing 702 yards in the last two weeks and completing nearly 72% of his throws in the last four games.
Mike White - vs. DET ($7,000)
White burst on to the scene in Week 12 against the Bears, where he tossed for 315 yards and three touchdowns. Since then, the signal-caller hasn’t thrown a touchdown, although he’s still combined for 637 passing yards in the last two games. With the Lions up ahead, White will be a popular DFS option for obvious reasons, assuming he can play after suffering a rib injury in the AFC East showdown in Buffalo.
Also Consider: Patrick Mahomes ($9,100)
FanDuel Running Backs - Week 15 DFS Lineup Picks
Derrick Henry - @ LAC ($8,900)
Henry had a rough two-week stretch on the ground, totaling 68 rushing yards in meetings versus Cincinnati and Philadelphia. Fortunately for fantasy managers, he looked fantastic last Sunday against Jacksonville, finishing with 121 yards and a touchdown off 17 carries. The Titans are looking to gain ground heading into the postseason, so Henry should be featured against a Chargers’ defense that has allowed 1,683 rushing yards this season, the second worst-mark in the National Football League.
Tony Pollard - @ JAC ($8,200)
Pollard had 42 yards off 10 carries and caught four of his five targets for 20 yards in a tough win over the Texans in Week 14. He also found the end zone twice, bringing his total to 12 total touchdowns this season. To put that into perspective, that places him in the same conversation as guys like Austin Ekeler, Derrick Henry, and Nick Chubb, three of the best fantasy backs going at the moment. With the Jaguars next on the schedule, Pollard’s ceiling remains high, even with Ezekiel Elliott on the field.
Jerick McKinnon - @ HOU ($6,200)
Clyde Edwards-Helaire sits on the injured reserve list, so the backfield duties have been handled by Isiah Pacheco and McKinnon. Pacheco has routinely received more carries than McKinnon. However, the latter has been in the mix, catching seven of his nine targets in Denver last Sunday while accumulating three touchdowns in the last two games. For those looking for a player with upside at a low rostering cost, this is your guy.
Also Consider: Miles Sanders (7,800), Isiah Pacheco (7,600)

FanDuel Wide Receivers - Week 15 DFS Lineup Picks
Ja'Marr Chase - @ TB ($9,000)
With a generous rostering cost of $9,000, it’s hard to pass on Chase. The former LSU Tiger didn’t show any signs of rust in his return from a four-game absence against the Chiefs. He followed that up with an efficient Week 14 showing versus Cleveland, hauling in 10 catches for 119 yards and a touchdown. With Tee Higgins, Tyler Boyd, and Hayden Hurst banged up, Chase should draw a ton of looks from Joe Burrow on Sunday against Tampa.
DeVonta Smith - @ CHI ($7,200)
Naturally, A.J. Brown is usually the preferred Philadelphia wideout for fantasy managers. That said, there is room in DFS lineups for Smith for the Week 15 outing with the Chicago Bears. The 2021 No. 10 overall pick had 10 receptions for 166 yards and two scores in the last two weeks. Of course, fantasy managers don't need to choose between Brown or Smith, as both men can be easily stacked in any DFS lineup.
Also Consider: CeeDee Lamb ($8,100), Keenan Allen ($8,000), Garrett Wilson ($7,800), Mike Williams (7,200), Chris Olave ($7,100)
FanDuel Tight Ends - Week 15 DFS Lineup Picks
Dalton Schultz - @ JAC ($6,500)
Schultz has been disappointing for fantasy managers this season. He battled an injury, so he didn’t find the end zone until Week 10. Since then, he’s added two more touchdowns and will enter Week 15 coming off a six-catch, 87-yard performance versus the Houston Texans. There hasn’t been another team in the league worse than the Jags against opposing tight ends in the last month, so Schultz could have a big day.
Also Consider: Travis Kelce ($8,000), Greg Dulcich ($5,600)
