Welcome to Week 15 of the NFL Season! Each week, I'll bring you our famous NFL DFS Cheat Sheet, featuring expert research and picks for cash games and GPPs. Here are a few notes about the sheet.
- We are using all 2025 data now!
- Green means GO (good for the player) while red reflects a poor rating/matchup. The more green, the better...
- CASH CORE pieces are highlighted with a BRIGHT GREEN highlighter on the chart for extra emphasis.
- The "fantasy points allowed rank" reflects how a player's opponent ranked in fantasy points allowed to their specific position. The lower the number, the better the matchup.
- Passing and rushing game matchups are again DVOA ratings, as I regained access to that metric and find it to be super helpful.
- A play labeled "cash" is a higher-owned play recommended for cash games. A "strong" play is playable in all formats. "Slate-breakers" are some of my favorite GPP targets for upside or reduced ownership.
- Vegas and risk columns will all be updated during the week to reflect injury info, weather info, and the most recent Vegas info.
Premium NFL DFS Cheat Sheet - Week 15
Because of the width of the cheat sheet, we recommend viewing it on a laptop or desktop monitor.
Cash Game Cores
DraftKings: McCaffrey-Marks-Nacua
FanDuel: McCaffrey-Marks-Nacua
RB and WR Anchors
RBs: Christian McCaffrey (vs. TEN) and Woody Marks (vs. ARI)
Following the chalk here this week as it's hard not to love CMC (especially in full PPR) against a bad Titans defense when the Niners are heavy favorites. Even if he doesn't run for big yards, his receptions and touchdowns give him an elite floor. We've been squeezing him in most of the season; it's not the time to stop now.
Marks provides a nice, cheap chalk block as he's projected to handle a heavy workload for the Texans with Nick Chubb trending towards missing again. The Cardinals' run defense is abysmal, giving up over 200 yards on the ground to the Rams last week.
WR/TE: Puka Nacua (vs. DET) and Wan'Dale Robinson (vs. WAS)
Puka was the top play on the board last week and came through with a massive performance. This week, he'll likely be leaned on heavily again against a Detroit defense that has been getting lit up by passing games lately.
Robinson is one of several mid-priced guys I like this week, including Jakobi Meyers and Jauan Jennings. I'd rather not double up with two Niners and Jennings has arguably the lowest floor of the three. Robinson should continue to see a ton of targets from Jaxson Dart and makes for some natural correlation in your cash game lineup if you roll with Dart at QB.
Other GPP Plays at Each Position
QB: Josh Allen, Trevor Lawrence, Marcus Mariota
RB: Kenneth Walker III, Rico Dowdle
WR: Christian Watson, Terry McLaurin, Chimere Dike
TE: Juwan Johnson, Isaiah Likely
DEFENSES: (cheapest to most expensive on DK) - Chargers, Saints, Packers, Chiefs, Bears, Texans, Seahawks

Please note that these are sample lineups we provide as a tool for you to use. They are designed to give you building block options as you go about choosing your own lineups, but in no way can we guarantee success.
