If you’re in the daily fantasy sports (DFS) game, you need as many tools as possible to help set your lineup. Sure, there are some things you’ll disagree with, but not acknowledging stats or information is usually a mistake. FanDuel has acquired numberFire to help on some projections for NFL players for each week to give you another tool to help.
FanDuel daily fantasy projections, Week 15: Wide receivers
Week 15 is a tough one to crack for fantasy owners. Here are the projections.

Here are the fantasy projections for Week 15:
Top tier
Antonio Brown is the top guy for projections, which might be going against the grain. The Denver Broncos are the toughest matchup for receivers, so he's not a complete must-start like he has been over the past few weeks. The usual suspects are also near the top with Julio Jones and Odell Beckham in the top three. A.J. Green comes in at No. 4, but be careful about A.J. McCarron even if it is against the San Francisco 49ers.
Bargains
Larry Fitzgerald hasn't done too much after a great start, but he should get it going this week against the Philadelphia Eagles. Stevie Johnson is finally close to 100 percent and he gets a good matchup against the Miami Dolphins. Stefon Diggs also gets a better matchup against the Chicago Bears this week.
Elite players with subpar matchups
DeAndre Hopkins has a pretty good matchup against the Indianapolis Colts, but he will have T.J. Yates throwing him the ball this week.
