Who should I start for Week 15? Fantasy football outlooks for Jerry Jeudy, Jakobi Meyers, Zay Flowers. Our expert fantasy football start 'em, sit 'em picks.

The wide receiver is an important position in PPR fantasy football leagues. Since their primary job is to catch the ball and gain yards, and receptions count for 0.5 or 1.0 points in the majority of leagues, getting players who have consistent roles in their offenses and whose talent demands volume is important.

Sometimes, even the No. 1 WR on a team can be inconsistent and have heavily matchup-dependent production, so it's important to look into the details of each player's outlook each week if you want to maximize your team's scoring and advance to the next round of the playoffs.

Let's look at three highly-rostered wideouts and figure out if you should start them in Week 15.

Should I Start Jerry Jeudy for Fantasy Football?

Yes. Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jerry Jeudy is the primary target of quarterback Jameis Winston, and while he has plenty of target competition from WRs Elijah Moore and Cedric Tillman (concussion) and tight end David Njoku (hamstring), there's a chance at least one of those players won't play. He also has an incredibly productive quarterback, Jameis Winston, who throws targets at him.

After languishing for years with poor quarterback play, the fifth-year pro wideout finally has a QB that's willing to air it out (and definitely willing to at least try to win, unlike QB Deshaun Watson (Achilles), who was simply going through the motions for a fat paycheck). It's boosted his ranking all the way up to WR11 on the season.

He should be locked into starting lineups for the rest of the season as long as Winston is active.

Should I Start Jakobi Meyers for Fantasy Football?

Yes. Not only is Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Jakobi Meyers an excellent and highly underrated receiver, but he has good chemistry with his quarterback, Aidan O'Connell (knee), and has earned fantastic target volume. O'Connell's status for the game is up in the air after suffering a bone bruise in Week 14, but Meyers should be a decent start even without his QB1.

Always fun to see Jakobi Meyers making plays.

He's a polished route-runner and possesses a ton of intangibles that make him a good wideout. There aren't a ton of weaknesses to his game. His production has been held in check by poor QB play throughout his career, but he's now scored double-digit PPR fantasy points in five of his last six games.

He'll face the Atlanta Falcons in Week 15. They've been horrible against the pass in recent weeks and have had little success stopping production from opposing wideouts. Meyers should be in starting lineups.

Should I Start Zay Flowers for Fantasy Football?

Despite the signing of former Panthers receiver Diontae Johnson (suspension), Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Flowers has maintained his hold on the WR1 role in his offense, and that's unlikely to change moving forward. He hasn't had any huge games since Week 9, but he's been a decent contributor in fantasy football, scoring between 10 and 12 PPR fantasy points in his last three games.

His dip in production can likely be explained by the tough coverages he's faced. The Philadelphia Eagles, Los Angeles Chargers, and Pittsburgh Steelers, all of whom possess good pass defenses, were his last three opponents. This week, they'll face the New York Giants. Unfortunately, the Ravens may not need to use Flowers much.

The Giants have a poor offense and a very poor run defense, and Baltimore is perfectly happy attempting as few passes as possible, opting instead to run heavily and grind down the clock when given the choice. When playing with a strong lead, BLT isn't likely to send many passes Flowers' way.

There's a big potential for a very negative game script for all of Baltimore's wideouts in Week 15, which is why we only recommend starting Flowers in deeper leagues. If you have 12 or fewer teams in your league, we hope you have better options than Flowers to fill in for him.
