NFL Week 15 Picks: Breaking Down Best Value Props and Stars' Outlooks

In Week 15, Saturday football has returned to the NFL, with three games having been played on Saturday.

But there are still 11 games on the schedule for Sunday, with plenty of prop bet opportunities as a result.

This week's best props center on a rookie wideout on a high-flying offense, a running back who's been rewarded with a significant role in his offense and a wideout who has a good shot at continuing his recent productive streak.

Let's break down some of the high-value props heading into Week 15 of the season.

Puka Nacua Anytime TD (+105)

Standout Rams rookie wideout Puka Nacua has four touchdowns on the season so far, but two of them have come in the four weeks since Los Angeles' bye.

And with Matthew Stafford and the team's passing game on fire in the last few weeks—Stafford has thrown a whopping 11 touchdowns in his last four—it's a smart bet that Nacua will be on the other end of one in Week 15 against the Washington Commanders.

Washington's defense is giving up the most touchdowns per game of any team in the league, at 3.5 on average. They've given up six in the last four games to opposing wideouts.

Take the plus money on Nacua and Stafford linking up for a score on Sunday.

Chuba Hubbard over 65.5 Rushing Yards (-120)

Chuba Hubbard is a week removed from his first 100-yard performance of the season, and he's averaging 49.6 per game. But the Carolina Panthers have been leaning heavily on him the last few weeks; per FantasyPros, Hubbard has played at least 64% of the snaps weekly. And he's been making the most of his increased opportunity.

Expect Hubbard to put together another big game against the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday.

Atlanta is allowing the 15th-most rushing yards per game, at 110.0 on average. Since Week 9 however, when the team lost defensive tackle Grady Jarrett, it's allowed the 11th-most.

Elijah Moore over 39.5 Receiving Yards (-115)

Elijah Moore hasn't totaled fewer than 40 yards for the Cleveland Browns since Week 9. And a matchup against the Chicago Bears in Week 15 could see him continue that trend.

Passing on Chicago is an advisable game plan. The Bears have been stout against the run this year, giving up just 83.7 rushing yards per game on average. But they've been more vulnerable against the pass, allowing 230.8 yards per game, the 10th most in the league.

That jibes with the Browns offense under quarterback Joe Flacco in his last two starts, in which he's totaled 44 and 45 pass attempts, respectively.
