Fantasy Football Week 15 Rankings: Top Players and Matchups for All Positions

In most fantasy football leagues, the playoffs are either underway or will get rolling in Week 15 of the 2023 NFL season.

So, if you're still seeking out fantasy content and looking to maximize your lineup decisions, that's almost certainly great news.

Of course, qualifying for the postseason is only part of your championship equation. You may have made it to the big dance, but now you need your players to perform on fantasy's biggest stage.

We'll do our best to help make that happen with a Week 15 breakdown featuring rankings and a sleeper pick at each of the four skill positions.

Top 10

1. Jalen Hurts, PHI (at SEA)

2. Dak Prescott, DAL (at BUF)

3. Lamar Jackson, BAL (at JAX)

4. Josh Allen, BUF (vs. DAL)

5. Brock Purdy, SF (at ARI)

6. Patrick Mahomes, KC (at NE)

7. Justin Fields, CHI (at CLE)

8. Matthew Stafford, LAR (vs. WAS)

9. Jordan Love, GB (vs. TB)

10. Jared Goff, DET (vs. DET)

Sleeper: Jake Browning, CIN (vs. MIN)

Browning has reeled off back-to-back monster outings in relief of the injured Joe Burrow. Over Browning's last two games, he's thrown for a combined 629 yards with three touchdowns against a single interception. He's also tallied a rushing touchdown in each contest. In these two weeks, he's trailed only Brock Purdy in fantasy points, per FantasyPros.

If you're playing the hot-hand game with streaming quarterbacks, few hands are hotter than Browning's.

Top 10

1. Christian McCaffrey, SF (at ARI)

2. Alvin Kamara, NO (vs. NYG)

3. Rachaad White, TB (at GB)

4. Saquon Barkley, NYG (at NO)

5. Kyren Williams, LAR (vs. WAS)

6. Raheem Mostert, MIA (vs. NYJ)

7. Joe Mixon, CIN (vs. MIN)

8. Austin Ekeler, LAC (at LV)

9. Bijan Robinson, ATL (at CAR)

10. Breece Hall, NYJ (at MIA)

Sleeper: Chuba Hubbard, CAR (vs. ATL)

Carolina has nearly given Chuba Hubbard complete control of its ground game over the past two weeks. He's had 48 carries over this stretch—or 23 more than all of his Panthers' teammates combined. And he isn't giving the Panthers any reason to second-guess their approach, as he's tallied 191 yards and two touchdowns on these attempts.

So, while this isn't a great matchup on paper—the Falcons have allowed the fourth-fewest fantasy points to running backs, per Yahoo—Hubbard still has a chance to deliver based on his massive level of involvement in this offense.

Top 10

1. Tyreek Hill, MIA (vs. NYJ)

2. CeeDee Lamb, DAL (at BUF)

3. A.J. Brown, PHI (at SEA)

4. Amon-Ra St. Brown, DET (vs. DEN)

5. Michael Pittman Jr., IND (vs. PIT)

6. Stefon Diggs, BUF (vs. DAL)

7. Deebo Samuel, SF (at ARI)

8. Cooper Kupp, LAR (vs. WAS)

9. Mike Evans, TB (at GB)

10. Keenan Allen, LAC (at LV)

Sleeper: Odell Beckham Jr., BAL (at JAX)

The Ravens have needed a primary pass-catcher since losing Mark Andrews to an ankle injury, and they appear increasingly interested in seeing whether Odell Beckham Jr. can fill that void. Their last time out, he paced the team in receiving yards (97), tied for the lead in targets (10) and was one of their three players with a touchdown catch.

He is quietly surging through the season's second half, as he's had either 90-plus receiving yards or a touchdown catch (or both) in four of his last five outings. And now, he'll square off with a Jaguars defense allowing the seventh-most fantasy points to wide receivers.

Top 10

1. Travis Kelce, KC (at NE)

2. T.J. Hockenson, MIN (at CIN)

3. George Kittle, SF (at ARI)

4. Sam LaPorta, DET (vs. DEN)

5. Evan Engram, JAX (vs. BAL)

6. David Njoku, CLE (vs. CHI)

7. Trey McBride, ARI (vs. SF)

8. Isaiah Likely, BAL (at JAX)

9. Jake Ferguson, DAL (at BUF)

10. Dalton Kincaid, BUF (vs. DAL)

Sleeper: Kyle Pitts, ATL (at CAR)

While fantasy managers have learned more than a few times that the Falcons don't always involve Kyle Pitts, there's at least a glimmer of hope things could be changing. His 14 targets over his past two performances match his second-highest two-game total of the season. He's also topped 50 receiving yards in back-to-back games for the first time this season, totaling 108 yards and a touchdown in this stretch.

Admittedly, things could dry up for him at any moment, but talent has never been his issue. Opportunity has been, but maybe, hopefully that won't be the case moving forward.
