10 Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Targets Heading Into Week 15

Blake Bortles, QB, Jacksonville Jaguars

In a surprising turn, Blake Bortles has actually been pretty good the last few weeks. He's had at least 16 fantasy points in six of his last seven games and has thrown two touchdowns in each of his last two outings.

Starting Bortles might not instill the most confidence in you, but if you recently lost Carson Wentz or Josh McCown, he might be a surprisingly good start in the playoffs for the same reasons that make Dede Westbrook a good waiver add this week -- his upcoming schedule.

The Texans and 49ers have given up the second- and fourth-most fantasy points to quarterbacks, respectively, so Bortles should be able to carve them up in the next two weeks. His 3.4 rushing attempts per game even add a little bit of a floor to counterbalance his 59.8 completion percentage.

Bortles is a surprisingly good option at quarterback in the fantasy playoffs.
