Sporting News' Vinnie Iyer and NFL.com's Michelle Magdziuk take a deep dive into their running back and quarterback rankings to settle on the best and worst plays of Week 15 based on the matchups and trust in the players. At running back, the Lions' dynamic duo of Jahmyr Gibbs and David Montgomery have the best matchup of the week at home, while the Dolphins, Jets, Bills and Patriots all have favorable spots to keep producing with Raheem Mostert, De'Von Achane, Breece Hall, James Cook and Ezekiel Elliott. At QB, red-hot Matthew Stafford draws the Commanders while Tua Tagovailoa vs. the Jets and Justin Fields vs. the Browns are less inspiring.

Sporting News' Vinnie Iyer examines nine early fantasy football sleepers at running back for the 2023 season. Among those with sneaky RB1 or RB2 potential to finish in the top 20 in scoring include Isiah Pacheco and Rachaad White seeing much bigger Year 2 roles with the Chiefs and Buccaneers, respectively. Also, don't sleep on two incoming rookies having immediate big impact wherever they are drafted.

Sporting News' Vinnie Iyer and NFL.com's Michelle Magdziuk each choose their side on the hottest early draft debates at running back and wide receiver for fantasy football in 2026. While Michelle is on Chase Brown as the better back-end RB1 choice with the Bengals because of youth and upside,, Vinnie makes his case for Ravens rival Derrick Henry to keep on chugging along as a production and scoring machine. At wide receiver, Michelle provides evidence on Malik Nabers having the greater ceiling than Vinnie's pick of Nico Collins. Michelle also feels more comfortable taking another Bengal, Tee Higgins, as borderline WR1/WR2 than Vinnie's guy with the Saints, Chris Olave. Who's right in each case? Listen to find out!

SportingNews.com's Vinnie Iyer goes through all 16 teams in the AFC and finds the worst fantasy football draft values and players to avoid at current cost in 2026 leagues. Vinnie starts in the East, where there is reason to not take Drake Maye among the top 3 quarterbacks overall and running backs De'Von Achane and Breece Hall have some red flags based on the uncertainty and lack of reliable offense from their teams. In the North, Michael Pittman Jr. is a better value than DK Metcalf, while Trevor Lawrence and Justin Herbert are stuck in bad spots near the end of the top 10 of quarterback rankings.

NFL.com's Michelle Magdziuk goes through all 16 teams in the NFC and spotlights the best fantasy football draft values to target in 2026 leagues, including three rising stars in the West from the Chargers, Chiefs and Raiders. Michelle tells you why she's locked into Ladd McConkey in Los Angeles after his sophomore slump and is buying Rashee Rice to deliver dominance as the No.1 in Kansas City. At running back, Ashton Jeanty is a great bet for Year 2 in Las Vegas and JK Dobbins can also come through in the division for Denver. Also making the cut are tight ends Mark Andrews and Harold Fannin Jr. from the North, plus cheat code quarterbacks Cam Ward and Malik Willis.
