Week 15 Wide Receiver Rankings Analysis

A new feature has been added to our weekly fantasy football rankings article. Below, you will find our fantasy football outlooks for key options in Week 15, which gives readers a matchup preview of that player and advice on whether to start or avoid for the upcoming week. We provide outlooks for all 32 NFL teams, which can be found on our player profile pages and our fantasy football news desk.

Calvin Ridley, WR, Jacksonville Jaguars
Week 15 Overall PPR Rankings: 60
Week 15 Wide Receiver PPR Rankings: 28

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Calvin Ridley will take on the Ravens and their stingy secondary in a Week 15 SNF showdown. The former Falcons star has cooled off the past two weeks after posting consecutive top-10 performances in Weeks 11-12. Ridley's target volume has been tremendous with Christian Kirk out, seeing 21 looks in this period, but that has translated into WR46 and WR41 finishes.

The Ravens rank 7th in points allowed to wideouts and passing yards allowed, making this a tough spot for Ridley. The 28-year-old should continue to see great target volume, giving him a tinge of upside in this one, but is yet again a risky WR3 play in a do-or-die fantasy week.

Zay Flowers, WR, Baltimore Ravens
Week 15 Overall PPR Rankings: 45
Week 15 Wide Receiver PPR Rankings: 23

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Zay Flowers has now put together two consecutive weeks with at least one touchdown and finished within the top seven at the position both times. Flowers has been utilized in the ground game a handful of times, as well as leading the team in targets and catches throughout the season.

He has 26 more targets than the second-leading pass-catcher, and the Jacksonville Jaguars have given up 24% more fantasy points per game over the last five weeks to opposing receivers. Even though Lamar Jackson has been spreading the ball, Flowers will likely be their target leader again. Fantasy managers can consider him a WR2 in this matchup.

Puka Nacua, WR, Los Angeles Rams
Week 15 Overall PPR Rankings: 21
Week 15 Wide Receiver PPR Rankings: 10

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua is the overall WR10 through the first 14 weeks of the season. The rookie phenom immediately connected with veteran quarterback Matthew Stafford, and the two have not lost a step since. Nacua has over a 30% target share with Stafford, as he is drawing in almost 10 targets per game.

While fellow wide receiver Cooper Kupp has picked it up as of late, Nacua has been the most consistent receiving option for the team this season. Treat the 22-year-old as a low-end WR1 with a high floor, as usual, against the Washington Commanders in Week 15.

Garrett Wilson, WR, New York Jets
Week 15 Overall PPR Rankings: 46
Week 15 Wide Receiver PPR Rankings: 25

New York Jets wide receiver Garrett Wilson posted his highest yardage total of the season last week while earning 14 targets in Zach Wilson's return to the starting lineup. He'll look to keep rolling in an away matchup against the Miami Dolphins on Sunday. Miami's defense, which is currently dealing with multiple injuries, has surrendered the 14th-most fantasy points per game to wideouts this season.

Just three weeks ago, Wilson turned 10 targets from Tim Boyle into seven receptions for 44 yards and a touchdown against the Dolphins. New York looked significantly better with Zach Wilson under center last week, so the 23-year-old receiver offers plenty of fantasy value as the team's primary threat and should be started as a rock-solid WR2 in Week 15.

Amari Cooper, WR, Cleveland Browns
Week 15 Overall PPR Rankings: 55
Week 15 Wide Receiver PPR Rankings: 26

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Amari Cooper is coming off a seven-catch, 77-yard outing in a Week 14 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars. Cooper had been struggling in his three previous games before last week, but the insertion of Joe Flacco into the team's starting lineup should be good for his fantasy production moving forward.

Cooper will now face off against the Chicago Bears at home in Week 15. Chicago has been decent against receivers in 2023, allowing the 18th-most fantasy points per game to the position. Cooper can be utilized as a low-end WR2 heading into the first round of the fantasy playoffs in Week 15.
