DraftKings Quarterbacks - Week 15 DFS Picks

Matt Ryan - ATL @ TB (DK - $6,300)

Ryan is coming off a very rough three interception game, but now has a very favorable match up in his favor. He is at division rival Tampa Bay, who has the 31st DVOA against the pass, who when he played them earlier this season, he put up over 300 yards and one touchdown. This is a level of production that he should be able to match, considering the Falcons have an implied team total of 27 points, which is third highest on the slate. This game is on Monday night, so you will have to have to play on one of the expanded slates to get to him. Given the match up, he has multi-touchdown upside and a good play for GPPs.

Derek Carr - OAK vs DAL (DK - $5,700)

Carr has scored 14.5 or more DraftKings points in six of his last seven games, and is facing a weak defensive opponent. At his price, he really only needs about 16 DK points in order to reach 3x value for cash games. He is up against the Cowboys, who have the 22nd DVOA against the pass, and have shown they are very weak in the secondary. Carr will be without Amari Cooper, so pairing him with Michael Crabtree is a good idea for either format. Carr along with the Raiders haven't been consistent this season, so some DFS player might be afraid to roster him, opening the chance for lower ownership.

 

DraftKings Running Backs - Week 15 DFS Picks

Dion Lewis - RB, NE @ PIT (DK - $5,400)

Lewis has double digit rushing attempts in seven of his last last eight games, along with 11 targets in his lat four games. This game vs the Steelers has an over-under of 53 points, making it the highest of the slate, so you will want some exposure to this game. He isn't too expensive, and with the snaps he is seeing, he can pay off his salary quickly. The Steelers have the 29th DVOA against running backs in the passing game, which makes this a fantastic match up, considering his PPR value out of the backfield.

LeSean McCoy - RB, BUF vs MIA (DK - $8,400)

McCoy is in line to see plenty of work this week considering the fact the Bills are in a tough spot at quarterback. Seemingly for the past month, the Bills have a rotating cast at quarterbacks, because of injuries. McCoy had 32 carries last week, which is super high, but that was mainly due to the weather. He won't see that type of volume every week, but with Tyrod Taylor on the injury report, he could see close to it. McCoy is up against the Dolphins who have the 14th DVOA against the run.

 

DraftKings Wide Receivers - Week 15 DFS Picks

Michael Thomas - WR, NO vs NYJ (DK - $7,400)

Thomas is coming off his best game of the season, and is in an even better spot this week. He is up against the Jets who have the 27th DVOA against pass, and the 30th DVOA against WR1. This is a prime spot for him, and has massive PPR value. He has seen eight or more targets in 12 of 13 games this season, and should be able to replicate that production. He is almost a lock for 12 or more DraftKings points, and should be good for any format this week.

Keelan Cole - WR, JAX vs HOU (DK - $3,700)

Cole has 27 targets over his last five games, and for his price, he offers a ton of savings. He is up against the Texans who have the 18th DVOA against the pass, and the 27th DVOA against WR2. Cole also has touchdowns in two straight weeks, and is in a good spot to repeat that. This game may not have the highest over-under, but Cole offers some much needed savings on this full slate.

 

DraftKings Tight End - Week 15 DFS Pick

Evan Engram - TE, NYG vs PHI (DK - $5,600)

Engram has seen six or more targets in 11 of his 13 games this season, and has become the favorite receiver of Eli Manning. He is up against the Eagles, who have the 19th DVOA against tight ends, putting him in a good spot to succeed this week. If you don't want to spend all the way up to get Gronk or Kelce, he makes a good option in the middle. Good for any format this week, as he has PPR value, along with touchdown upside.

 

DraftKings Defense - Week 15 DFS Pick

Minnesota Vikings vs Cincinnati Bengals - (DK - $3,500)

The Vikings are averaging three more DraftKings points at home this season, and are now up against a Bengals team who has been very inconsistent on offense. They have seven sacks over their past four games, and two interceptions over that span. They are one of the more expensive options on the slate, so getting up to them in price price can be hard in cash games, but they are a great tournament option.
