It’s time to start building NFL DFS lineups for week 15
OwnersBox $30K Sunday Smash contest is available to enter now
Read below for three players to target in NFL DFS contests

NFL Week 15 is here and I’m going to give you some receiver options to anchor your lineups. For builds at the receiver position, I like looking at opponents pass DVOA and the target share of their receivers. I am going to give you 3 different options at different price points for your lineups. Here are the 3 players to take in your OwnersBox week 15 NFL DFS lineups.

These players will also be priority targets when playing the new Lightning Lineups game on OwnersBox. Lightning Lineups is a unique user-vs-house game where the player is presented with three lineups of three players each.

If you don’t like the lineups presented to you, you can spin the wheel to generate new matchups. All you have to do is select the lineup you think will score the most fantasy points. You can increase your payout by adding more opponent lineups and earn up to 6x your money!

Keenan Allen $6,500 vs Titans

The Tennessee Titans are an awesome run defense. They rank first in the league in rush defense DVOA, but their pass defense could not be a polar opposite. The pass defense DVOA ranks 28th in the league, and are on a 3 game skid. The last two games, Keenen Allen has an absurd 28 targets and has been top 10 in fantasy points both of those weeks. Allen also has 5 redzone targets in that time for a touchdown.

My good friend Tyler MacKillop thinks that Justin Herbert could throw the ball up to 50 times in this matchup with the Titans, and it will pay off to have his favorite target with over a 30% target share. While only playing 6 games this season, Allen is still 28th in red zone targets and 16th in true catch rate. I think Keenan Allen is a strong anchor at the top tier this week in your DFS lineups.

Drake London $4,700 @ Saints

The Falcons are a dog this weekend in New Orleans, and a tough first matchup from Desmond Ridder. I think this is a good game script that will force the Falcons into throwing the ball a lot in the second half of this game, and Drake London has the most average cushion of any receiver in the league which should allow for Ridder to get him the ball when they decide to sling it.

Arthur Smith finally started featuring one of his Top 10 picks.

Watch how Drake London sells his inside lean by swinging his right arm around hard into the shoulder shake.

He can make it happen for your offense, I'm so glad to FINALLY see him get some schematic priority. pic.twitter.com/mKUKlXpl1o

Drake London is 17th in red zone targets, 10th in target share, and 8th in target rate in the whole league. As disappointing as he’s been early on in season long leagues, there is a lot to like for his end of season DFS prospects. London is 13th in unrealized air yards this season, and it will be interesting to see how Desmond Ridder is able to change that number for worse or for better. I’m going to take the chance on the Falcons having to throw a ton on Sunday, and like Drake London at this number.

Elijah Moore $3,900 vs Lions

For a player that was locked down on the bench earlier in the season, asking for a trade, Elijah Moore has come back to life for the New York Jets. Moore earned himself 10 targets last week against the Bills who ranked 7th in pass DVOA, and now he gets rewarded with the a team 15 spots down the rankings in the Detroit Lions. The Lions are giving up 20.4 PPR Fantasy points per game against slot receivers, and Elijah Moore runs most of his snaps out of the slot.

Moore has top 30 target separation, and only has one drop on the season. Mike White is such an upgrade over Zach Wilson and Elijah Moore is going to cook against the Lions, get him in your lineups at this low of a price.
