Dallas Cowboys’ Week 15 Fantasy Football Rankings

Originally posted on Inside The Star | By Mark Heaney | Last updated Dec 14, 2025 12:18 PM ET

It is Week 15 in the NFL, and December football is in full swing both on the field and on fantasy apps on phones across the world.

If you are still rummaging through fantasy football rankings today, odds are you managed to lock in a playoff berth in your league. Now, the real work starts, and it is going to take luck and the right moves to move on.

In Dallas, the players with the star on their helmets will control the fantasy fate of countless owners.

Here, we’ll rank the top players on the team from a fantasy perspective as they face off with the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday Night Football.

Who should you start? Who should you sit? I will sort through all of that below.

1. Dak Prescott: High-Level Fantasy QB Holds All Cards Tonight

Projected Points (ESPN): 18.2 — Last Week’s Points: 18.44

Coming in at the top of these rankings is the highest-projected Cowboy scorer of the week, Dak Prescott.

Dallas’s QB1 has been a strong fantasy option at the position for most of the 2025 season, and this week he comes in hot with 18+ points in four straight games.

Minnesota does allow the third least amount of quarterback fantasy points in the league, which will be a trend in these rankings, but that shouldn’t stop the gunslinging Prescott from putting up numbers.

Unless you have a truly elite quarterback option, you should at least consider starting Prescott today.

2. CeeDee Lamb: Back-To-Back Strong Weeks Set 88 Up Well

Projected Points (ESPN, PPR): 17.2 — Last Week’s Points: 18.1

It appears that CeeDee Lamb’s fantasy dominance may be slowly coming back.

#88 has eclipsed 100 receiving yards in two straight games, and has scored a touchdown in two of his last four weeks as well.

Despite missing three games and leaving two contests early due to injury, CeeDee Lamb (@_CeeDeeThree) has five 100-yard receiving games in 2025, tied with Ja’Marr Chase and Drake London for the second-most 100-yard games this season. Only Jaxon Smith-Njigba has more (eight…

The only problem today? No team in football allows fewer fantasy points to wide receivers than the Vikings do.

That could absolutely play spoiler to Lamb owners today, but I am confident that the Cowboys offense will try to feed him as much as possible to counteract Minnesota’s secondary strength.

3. Javonte Williams: Consistent RB Option May Feast Against Vikings

Projected Points (ESPN, PPR): 14.4 — Last Week’s Points: 14.7

Third, we actually have the fourth guy when it comes to projected points with running back Javonte Williams.

He slots in over George Pickens for me based on feel; it is possible, if not likely, that only one Cowboy receiver will feast today, and Williams would reap the benefit of that.

He has slowed down as the season has progressed, having not reached the 20-point mark since Week 5. However, Williams remains a steady RB2-Flex option in PPR leagues, thanks to his high volume and breakout potential.

Start him today, and you may enjoy the Dallas offense relying on him against a softer Vikings run defense.

4. George Pickens: Touchdown Is Needed For A Big Day

Projected Points (ESPN, PPR): 16.3 — Last Week’s Points: 8.7

Here is the aforementioned Pickens at the fourth spot, despite his fantasy explosion this season.

Cowboys coach Brian Schottenheimer said he recently had a conversation with George Pickens about several topics, which included his effort in Detroit: “We talked a little about it. In his words, he goes, ‘Hey, Schotty, I didn’t play my best game.’ Unfortunately, none of us played… pic.twitter.com/9xjTDaXQsO

In PPR leagues, he’s averaging nearly 20 points, but those big days are almost always accompanied by a touchdown, which may be hard to come by today.

He’s also coming off one of his worst games as a Cowboy, both in effort and production.

Don’t get me wrong, you still have to start Pickens; it may just be a difficult matchup for him to reach his ceiling.

5. Brandon Aubrey: Elite Kicker Could Outscore Jake Ferguson

Projected Points (ESPN): 8.68 — Last Week’s Points: 24.0

Yes, I have Brandon Aubrey above Jake Ferguson in the last spot of these rankings.

The reason for this is a combination of both players’ output in recent weeks. While Ferguson started the year on fire, he hasn’t reached the end zone since Week 11, and he seems to be creating more problems than production recently. He is also banged up in this game.

For Aubrey, the All-Pro kicker is coming off his second 20+ point performance of the season, and Minnesota ranks 24th in kicker points allowed.

These factors point to a limited Ferguson day and a potential back-to-back week explosion for the man they call “Butter.”
