NFL Week 15 DFS Cheat Sheet: Five recommended plays for all contests

• Tennessee Titans RB Derrick Henry (85.1 PFF rushing grade): He is the position’s top cash-game play.

• Philadelphia Eagles TE Dallas Goedert (81.2 PFF receiving grade): He returns to an excellent matchup against the Chicago Bears.

• New Orleans Saints rookie WR Rashid Shaheed: He is an excellent under-the-radar GGP tournament play.

NFL Week 15 action is here. Here are five recommended plays to help you win big in DraftKings GPP and cash game competitions.

Tennessee at Los Angeles offers a fantasy-friendly 46.5-point over/under.
PFF’s OL/DL matchup chart gives Tennessee the second-best run-blocking matchup advantage (20.0%) on the week.
PFF’s ownership projections place running back Derrick Henry’s (85.1 PFF rushing grade) 18.1% expected rostership rate as the second highest at the position. His $8,000 DraftKings salary is $500 less than this week’s running back maximum.
Henry is the go-to running back chalk play in cash games.
Los Angeles’ fragile run defense will be without 2021 Pro Bowl safety Derwin James (76.9 PFF run-defense grade).
