Fantasy Football Playoff Rankings for Week 15 (QB, RB, WR, TE, DST) - Bucky Irving, Josh Downs, Nick Chubb, Tank Dell, Sincere McCormick, Braelon Allen

Bucky Irving - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

Nick Mariano's fantasy football playoff rankings for Week 15 at QB, RB, WR, TE, D/ST (2024). Set winning lineups with our Week 15 rankings for fantasy football.

Fellow RotoBallers! You've made it, welcome to the fantasy football playoffs - now it's time to win your leagues. Below you'll find our latest fantasy football rankings for Week 15 of the 2024 fantasy football season. After a slow start to the week on the TNF game with low scoring all around, it's even more critical to nail the rest of your Week 15 lineup decisions.

There are plenty of open questions remaining as we head into the weekend. Will Bucky Irving suit up, after dealing with an injury all week, or will Rachaad White be featured again? Will David Njoku miss this week's game, and if so which other tight end should you consider starting? Will Ladd McConkey make his return, and if so how does that affect Justin Herbert's outlook for the week? Let's take a look at those players, and where they are ranked, along with other key names like Josh Downs, Nick Chubb, DK Metcalf, Sincere McCormick, and Braelon Allen.

Our playoff fantasy football rankings for Week 15 are put together by lead NFL analyst Nick Mariano. In addition to our staff rankings, below you will also find a summary of this week's most important fantasy football injury news. There are always crucial injuries to track, so be sure to check back until kickoff. Good luck in the fantasy football playoffs RotoBallers!

Be sure to check all of our fantasy football rankings for 2025:
