This game promises to be a clash of strengths, with Josh Jacobs and Zach Charbonnet leading the charge for their respective offenses. Both teams have playoff hopes on the line, and we’ll see quarterbacks Jordan Love and Geno Smith look to lean on their key playmakers — from Jaxon Smith-Njigba and DK Metcalf to Christian Watson and Romeo Doubs.

DraftKings SNF Showdown 2024 – Green Bay @Seattle Captain Picks
Josh Jacobs ($17,100 Capt/ $11,400 Flex) ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Josh Jacobs is in elite form, scoring an incredible eight touchdowns over his last four games. He’s been a workhorse for the Packers, averaging 73 rushing yards, 33 receiving yards, and 24.6 fantasy points per game during that stretch. Facing a Seahawks defense that has given up the seventh-most rushing yards per game this season (109.5), Jacobs is poised for another monster outing. With Green Bay’s offense leaning heavily on the run, Jacobs’ volume and efficiency make him a no-brainer captain choice. Lock him into your captain slot with confidence and watch him rack up points on Sunday night.
Jordan Love ($15,300 Capt/ $10,200 Flex) ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Jordan Love is looking for a breakout game and might find it against a Seahawks team that has tightened up against the pass but remains vulnerable. With running back Josh Jacobs dominating recent headlines, Love has taken more of a game manager role, but the return of Romeo Doubs (concussion) adds another weapon to his arsenal. If Seattle’s defense focuses on stopping the run, Love could be forced to air it out, especially with a full complement of pass-catchers available. While his upside is capped in Green Bay’s run-heavy system, Love’s potential to connect on big plays makes him a sneaky captain option. He’s ideal for GPP lineups where a less popular captain could give you an edge.
Zach Charbonnet ($13,500 Capt/ $9,000 Flex) ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Zach Charbonnet is a must-play in the captain spot if Kenneth Walker III (calf) is ruled out or severely limited. Charbonnet has been outstanding when given the lead-back role, averaging 27.3 PPR fantasy points in games where Walker has been sidelined. His dual-threat ability as both a runner and receiver was on full display in Week 14, where he shredded the Cardinals’ defense. Against a Green Bay unit that ranks 21st in fantasy points allowed to running backs, Charbonnet has the potential for a ceiling game. His combination of efficiency and guaranteed passing game involvement makes him an excellent option to anchor your showdown lineup.
Jaxon Smith Njigba ($13,200 Capt/ $8,800 Flex) ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Jaxon Smith-Njigba has emerged as one of Seattle’s top offensive weapons, consistently leading or ranking second on the team in targets. With Tyler Lockett’s role diminished and DK Metcalf still dealing with a shoulder issue, Smith-Njigba has become a reliable WR2 with WR1 upside. The Packers rank ninth in fantasy points allowed to wide receivers, but Smith-Njigba’s heavy target share ensures he remains a high-floor play. He may not be a touchdown machine, but his volume and ability to rack up yards make him a strong captain candidate in PPR-heavy formats. Consider him for lineups where a balanced passing attack is anticipated.
DraftKings SNF Showdown 2024 – Green Bay @Seattle Flex Picks
Geno Smith ($9,800 Flex) ⭐️⭐️⭐️
Geno Smith has been steady but unspectacular for fantasy this season, averaging a solid 12 to 13 points per game. The Seahawks’ balanced offensive approach has limited his opportunities, as he hasn’t thrown more than 34 passes in a game since Week 6. Facing a stingy Packers secondary that has excelled against the pass, Smith’s touchdown struggles—just 14 on the season—will likely persist. While his baseline is safe, his ceiling is limited, making him more of a conservative flex play for Week 15.
DK Metcalf ($8,400 Flex) ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
DK Metcalf is dealing with a frustrating season, hampered by injuries and diminished red zone opportunities. While he’s no longer the clear top target in Seattle’s passing game, his ability to break a game wide open still makes him an intriguing play. Against a Packers defense that ranks ninth in fantasy points allowed to wide receivers, Metcalf could face a tough path to fantasy production. With Jaxon Smith-Njigba and Tyler Lockett siphoning targets, Metcalf is best viewed as a low-end WR2 or high-upside flex play this week.
Jayden Reed ($8,000 Flex) ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Jayden Reed has been a boom-or-bust player, but his Week 14 zero-point performance highlights the risks of relying on him. Facing a Seahawks defense that has allowed the sixth-fewest fantasy points per target to slot receivers since Week 11, Reed’s path to success won’t be easy. However, his explosive potential, as seen in his two-touchdown game in Week 13, keeps him in the conversation for lineups needing upside. He’s a volatile WR3 or high-risk flex option for Week 15, especially in deeper leagues.
Christian Watson ($7,000 Flex) ⭐️⭐️⭐️
Christian Watson’s fantasy value lies in his ability to create big plays, as evidenced by his two 100-yard games over the last four weeks. While his volume remains low, his efficiency on limited targets makes him a high-risk, high-reward option. The return of Romeo Doubs could slightly cut into Watson’s snaps, but his explosive playmaking ability keeps him in the flex conversation. Against the Seahawks’ solid secondary, Watson remains a boom-or-bust option, best suited for lineups chasing upside.
Romeo Doubs ($6,600 Flex) ⭐️⭐️⭐️
After clearing concussion protocol, Romeo Doubs returns to action for the Packers, offering a steady presence in their passing game. Doubs has consistently been on the field for 85-95% of Green Bay’s dropbacks, but his fantasy production has been hit-or-miss. Facing a Seahawks defense that has been solid against wide receivers, Doubs projects as a volatile flex option. His involvement in Green Bay’s offense gives him a decent floor, but his ceiling remains capped in this matchup.
Tucker Kraft ($5,800 Flex) ⭐️⭐️⭐️
Tucker Kraft has become a consistent weapon for the Packers, with three straight double-digit fantasy outings. His seven touchdowns this season highlight his red-zone prowess, making him a valuable option in tight-end premium formats. Facing a Seahawks defense that has struggled against opposing tight ends, Kraft’s role in Green Bay’s offense ensures he will remain involved. He’s a reliable flex option in Week 15, particularly for managers looking for a touchdown-dependent play with consistent volume.
Tyler Lockett ($4,000 Flex) ⭐️⭐️⭐️
Tyler Lockett has seen his role fade this season, with the emergence of Jaxon Smith-Njigba and DK Metcalf remaining the focal point of the passing attack. Lockett hasn’t seen more than four targets in a game since Week 7, and his minimal involvement makes him a difficult play. Against a Packers secondary ranked ninth against opposing wide receivers, Lockett’s upside is almost nonexistent. He’s best left on waivers or your bench this week, as his low volume and lack of production render him a non-factor for fantasy.
Dart Throw Plays (Various)
Here are a few dart plays to round out your lineup. These are high-risk, high-reward picks best suited for GPPs—not for cash games:
- Dontayvion Wicks (WR, GB) $5,400 Flex – Wicks delivered a respectable outing last week with 49 yards on four catches. If Romeo Doubs remains limited or out, Wicks could see increased opportunities, making him an intriguing low-end dart throw against a Seattle defense vulnerable to deep plays.
- Noah Fant (TE, SEA) $3,600 Flex – Fant is a reliable chain mover for Seattle’s offense but doesn’t translate that success into fantasy relevance. Despite Green Bay’s struggles against tight ends, Fant’s inconsistent usage makes him a risky dart throw with limited upside.
- Kenny McIntosh (RB, SEA) $3,000 Flex – McIntosh remains an afterthought in Seattle’s offensive game plan. With limited opportunities and no defined role, he’s best left off your roster this week.
- Chris Brooks (RB, GB) $2,400 Flex – Brooks is not expected to have any significant impact in this matchup. He’s best avoided, even as a deep dart throw.
- AJ Barner (TE, SEA) $2,000 Flex – Barner has shown a knack for grabbing a catch or two weekly, but with Noah Fant healthy, his role is too limited to trust. While his low salary is appealing, his ceiling is minimal, making him a desperation play only.
- Emanuel Wilson (RB, GB) $1,400 Flex – Wilson is buried behind Josh Jacobs on the depth chart and hasn’t logged more than five carries in a game over the last month. Without an injury to Jacobs, Wilson’s role is too small to warrant consideration in any DFS lineup.
DraftKings SNF Showdown 2024 – Green Bay @Seattle Kickers and DSTs
Jason Myers ($5,200) has been on a hot streak, scoring double-digit fantasy points in three of his last four games. His accuracy and big leg make him a strong option, especially in a game where the Packers’ tough defense may limit touchdowns and force field goal attempts. Brandon McManus ($5,000) has been a picture of consistency, hitting all of his kicks over the last four games. While reliable, the Seahawks defense has been effective at limiting kicker production, so McManus might have a capped ceiling this week.
Packers DST ($4,600) struggled last week, allowing 34 points and giving up nearly 400 yards to the Lions. They’ll need a much-improved effort against a balanced Seahawks offense that’s been finding its rhythm in recent weeks. Seahawks DST ($4,200) has been heating up, recording multiple turnovers and a defensive touchdown in consecutive games. With Green Bay leaning on their run game, the Seahawks could capitalize on forced errors and field position to deliver a solid fantasy performance.
