Fantasy Stars and Studs, Week 15: Jalen Hurts has dynasty value

Fantasy football may have a new star in Jalen Hurts.

With the fantasy football season entering championship week in the vast majority of leagues, the time for wholesale changes at the quarterback position has long since passed.

However, as the focus shifts away from Week 15, we can reflect on the stunning performance of a young quarterback who is likely to become an extremely valuable commodity in fantasy circles after he followed up an extremely intriguing first effort with a performance that should have set pulses racing in large parts of Pennsylvania.

While spectacular, it was a display that is unlikely to change anything for fantasy managers focusing on championship matchups. For those in dynasty leagues, though, there may be something of a scramble to see if the rookie second-round pick is available on the waiver wire and, if not, whether he can be had in a trade.

Though it is widely derided as the worst division in football, there were other players from the NFC East who excelled in Week 15 and carry fantasy relevance going into Week 16.

A quarterback putting together one of the best rookie seasons in history rediscovered his best in Week 15, which also saw an AFC East team propelled to a victory over a division rival that bolstered their hopes of securing playoff football.

Here we look at some of the best performances from Week 15 and analyze their potential impact from a fantasy perspective.
