Fantasy Football: 7 Players to Avoid in Week 15

Brock Osweiler, QB, Denver Broncos

Hopefully you aren’t in a situation where you have to consider Brock Osweiler during the fantasy playoffs, but I can certainly see how it might seem like an option for Andy Dalton owners seeking a replacement or those who stream the quarterback position.

However, the former backup to Peyton Manning hasn’t been asked to do much in Gary Kubiak’s offense and has topped 10 fantasy points just once in four starts with only 4 passing touchdowns.

While Pittsburgh has had the reputation of a defense that is easy to pass on, the Steelers have actually had the eighth-best pass defense on a per-play basis in the past four games and are not a fantasy punching bag. You’re probably starting Demaryius Thomas and Emmanuel Sanders if you have them, but Osweiler will be easy to sub out.

We project Osweiler, our 26th-ranked quarterback, for 236.66 yards, 1 touchdown, and 1.15 interceptions.
