Rose’s Royalty: NFL GPP Breakdown, Week 15
Week 15 is here, and with the season starting to wind down, we finally have enough real football behind us to trust what we are seeing. The early-season chaos is gone, the fluky starts have leveled out, and the offenses that can actually move the ball have fully revealed themselves. At this point, the guessing game is over, and now it is about reading the board the right way. This is where the edge gets sharper. Early in the year, everyone overreacts. One big game sends ownership through the roof, and one quiet week sends people running. Now the trends are real, the usage is steady, and the players who matter have separated from the noise. If you can focus on what is predictable instead of chasing the swings, you are already ahead of half the field. The focus for Week 15 is staying sharp with context. Prices have settled, roles are defined, and the matchups matter more now than ever. You do not need to force breakout hunts or fade someone because of one off week… In this breakdown, I will go through the fantasy football matchups you should be leaning into, the DFS value plays that open the slate, and the players with enough upside to flip everything in a single lineup.

2025 Start or Sit Breakdown: Week 15
Welcome to the 2025 version of the Start/Sit Breakdown. This article focuses on the questions you, our subscribers, ask most frequently each week, including our start-sit decisions. I will maintain, though, that there is far too much focus on who to start and not enough emphasis on roster construction. After 30 years of playing this game, I’ve found that worrying less about start-and-sit decisions and more about proper roster construction has led to greater success. We spend each week racking our brains over who to use in the flex spot, as three or four players share a similar outlook. I’d rather load my bench with players who have a potential path to high-volume workloads. That means some weeks, my bench is loaded with players scoring little to no points. I’m okay with that, because having a bench full of mid-level scoring doesn’t help my starting lineup and makes setting lineups a chore… Rich Maletto breaks down all of the toughest start/sit Fantasy Football questions of NFL Week 15!

2025 NFL DFS Contest Selection: Week 15
Fantasy Guru! I’m back for another season of NFL DFS. Every week during the season, I will highlight the featured contests with the best payouts on both FanDuel and DraftKings. The kind of contests that are best to enter are both sites’ single-entry contests. Generally, FanDuel seems to feature more single-entry contests with better payouts. I also don’t mind contests with 3-5 entry max. Once we have found the single entry or 3-5 entry max contests, it’s all about finding a payout that is greater than 20%, preferably 25% or greater.

Snap Counts & Usage From Week 14
Armando Marsal takes a look at notable trends in snap counts and usage from last week. Like I do every year, I will dive into offensive snap counts after each week. This article will focus on identifying changes, trends, and things we should be taking note of for players and their opportunities. Snap counts are a part of my weekly analysis because they gauge how often a player is on the field, which could translate into potential opportunity to produce fantasy points. Even though playing time does not always translate into fantasy points, the path to scoring fantasy points is easier for those players on the field. Looking at snap counts and comparing them to volume/touches also gives us a clear picture of a player’s role in their offense. Some positions, such as quarterbacks, are straight forward, but others not so much. I will focus primarily on situations that we need to be keeping a close eye on and situations that stand out to me. At the end of the article I will include a spreadsheet with all the weekly snap counts for all teams, along with the YTD snap counts.
