Desperate to find a top 7 fantasy DST in Week 15? Look no further than the Detroit Lions.
How can I say that?

Most other sites rank the Lions in the 12-20 range. Pitiful.
Most "experts" seem to look at players' current overall rankings, make a few small modifications, and boom: there's your weekly rankings. The Lions are tied for 19th among fantasy DSTs. So it stands to reason that most experts are playing it safe.
Hey, I understand. These guys are busy. And ranking hundreds of players every week takes time.
And that's why I'm here. Rather than toss out meaningless rankings for hundreds of players, I offer game-changing predictions that could mean the difference between beating and losing to your weekly opponent. And in the fantasy playoffs, who wouldn't want a highly reliable 5-10 point boost?
Avenging a painful loss, the Lions host the Ravens in a Monday night matchup with huge playoff implications. Baltimore has scored the 3rd fewest points in the AFC. Their running game is a mess, and their QB is extraordinarily average. I predict Detroit will dominate.
Bank on 12+ fantasy points in standard scoring leagues, making them a top 7 Week 15 DST, and a sure-fire starter for anyone out there lacking an elite D.
Good luck.
