WR Rankings – Week 15

Da’Rick Rogers finally got his time to shine and responded with six receptions, two touchdowns and 107 yards this past Sunday. Rogers is the most talented receiver on the Colts roster not named Reggie Wayne and he should be targeted as such going forward. I have been waiting all season for WMFL preseason favorite Rogers to get meaningful snaps and he has rewarded forward thinking dynasty owners with a breakout game which earned him a prominent role in the Colts offense. Those in deeper leagues may want to consider starting Rogers this week against the Texans as they will look to bottle up T.Y Hilton leaving Rogers to feast against single coverage. Rogers comes in as our 40th ranked receiver for week fifteen.

Josh Gordon has been on fire the past few weeks and now leads the NFL in total yards despite being suspended for the first two games of the season. Gordon has been setting records as he became the first ever wide receiver with back to back 200 yard games, is now the Browns single season receiving yard record holder and his 774 yards through 4 games is also an NFL record. We have bumped Gordon all the way up to number two in our rankings as he has transformed into one of the leagues elites wide receivers this season.

Andre Holmes gets a fantasy downgrade with the return of Denarius Moore to the Raiders lineup. Moore will take over as the number one receiver with Holmes getting pushed back to the third receiver. Holmes has averaged 66 yards per game over the past four weeks so he cannot simply be ignored in the deepest leagues but those playing in standard formats with less than 16 teams can probably do better during fantasy semi-final week. Holmes comes in as our 52nd ranked wide receiver for week fifteen.

Justin Hunter is trending upward and is a solid flex play with WR3 upside and comes in as our 48th ranked wide receiver for week fifteen. With that said Hunter is not a recommended play this week despite being one of the top recommended pickups for this week. The Titans square off against the Cardinals this week and with Kendall Wright playing primarily in the slot one can imagine that Patrick Peterson may indeed rotate onto the explosive big bodied receiver to stop him from putting up his third 100 yard game in his last four. Hunter should not be someone you consider this week save except for those in the deepest of custom leagues.
