Use these player salaries as context for building your Week 15 OwnersBox lineups. There is some great value at the running back position. It’s difficult to predict a players performance in a single week. But some players have great matchups in Week 15 or have risen on their respective depth charts with more opportunity.
- The Vikings have struggled immensely this season when it comes to stopping the run, fantasy managers with Aaron Jones for their championship game should be very excited about his week 17 outlook!
- Take Rex Burkhead’s massive performance against the Chargers with a grain of salt. The 49ers are third in rushing DVOA this season.
- Rashaad Penny should be able to continue his success as of late against the Lions in week 17, I have him right on the cusp of an RB1 in week 17.
