Quarterbacks Lamar Jackson FD 8400 DK 7400 Opponent CINProj Points FD - 25.61 DK - 26.33 He didn’t turn in a world-beater in Week 6, but it was more about a little bad luck than anything else. The Ravens crushed the Chargers 34-6 and were so in control of the game that they simply didn’t need Jackson to do anything else. He only threw for 167 yards and a touchdown (Hollywood Brown dropped an easy one) and put up 51 yards on the ground. Again, it wasn’t anything to write home about, but he got scripted out of the game more than anything else. The Bengals have been better than advertised on defense this season, ranking in the top-10 in DVOA. But the way Lamar scores points, his floor is just safer than anyone else at the position on a game-to-game basis. Patrick Mahomes FD 8800 DK 8400 Opponent TENProj Points FD - 25.6 DK - 26.14 There is a case to pay all the way up for Mahomes here considering the game total, matchup, and the fact that he is Patrick Freakin Mahomes. He now ranks second on the season in DraftKings points per game behind only Derrick Henry. And we saw that the Chiefs are going to need to continue relying on the aerial game considering they ran for less than four yards per carry last week against the Washington Football Team. Mahomes is very expensive, but the Chiefs have a whopping 30.5 implied total coming in here. Running Backs Leonard Fournette FD 7000 DK 6400 Opponent CHIProj Points FD - 18.57 DK - 20.63 We like to look for running backs as big home favorites as a starting place for cash games and Fournette definitely fits the bill there. The Bucs are -13 against the Bears coming into this game and Fournette has taken over RB1 duties for Tampa Bay. He’s played about 70% of the snaps for the Bucs over the last three weeks and has been pretty efficient when getting the ball. He’s averaging about 4.5 yards per carry in that stretch with more than five targets per game in the passing attack. The Bears have been a decent defense on the season, but Fournette is still underpriced for his role and the Bucs being such big favorites. Darrell Henderson Jr....

Kansas City Chiefs Passing Game Patrick Mahomes FD 9000 DK 8300 Opponent WAS Proj Points FD - 25.21 DK - 25.75 Travis Kelce FD 8500 DK 7000 Opponent WAS Proj Points FD - 15.46 DK - 18.82 This is likely a Top 3 highest owned stack this week but that doesn't mean we should immediately avoid it. While the Chiefs have struggled to a 2-3 record in the standings but it's definitely not on the offense who ranks 5th overall in terms of points per game(30.8). They have been terrific both through the air(5th in passing yards per game) and on the ground(7th in rushing yards per game). Good news for the passing game for fantasy now that Clyde Edwards Helaire has been placed on the IR. It will be Darrel Williams making his first start and he will be chalky himself so one way to differentiate is just going full pass game build. That starts with Patrick Mahomes who may be 7th in passing yards per game(298) but is first in passing touchdowns(16) and has the KC offense ranked 4th in my RedZone rankings(TD's per trip to RZ). My complete player pool for KC depends on the status of Tyreek Hill who has not practiced all week and if he is limited or out, I see Travis Kelce taking on an even larger role with a projected 10-15 targets. The cost is high but the upside is slate-breaking. Lock and load for GPP! Cincinnati Bengals Joe Burrow FD 7400 DK 6300 Opponent DET Proj Points FD - 17.84 DK - 18.37 Ja'Marr Chase FD 7800 DK 6700 Opponent DET Proj Points FD - 14.1 DK - 16.89 Joe Mixon FD 7000 DK 6400 Opponent DET Proj Points FD - 16.16 DK - 17.51 I am going right back to a Bengals stack this week despite only putting up 22 points a week ago against the Packers. First of all, they get a much better matchup against a MUCH weaker NFC North opponent in the Lions who rank 22nd in points per game against. Don't get...

Daily Fantasy NFL GPP Stacks for FanDuel and DraftKings – Week 5

Game Stack - Dallas Cowboys vs. New York Giants Let's start week 5 off with some chalk as this NFC East showdown has the highest total(52) on the main slate. When looking at the defensive matchups, the Cowboys and Giants have given up the 2nd and 13th most passing yards and the 4th and 8th most fantasy points per game given to the quarterback position. For the offenses, they rank 12th and 17th in pace and 7th and 14th in passing yards per game. I fully expect a high pace/high-scoring game which has me loving it for multi-entry with tons of combinations available. Let's start with two of my favorite stacks from this game. Dak Prescott FD 8100 DK 6900 Opponent NYG Proj Points FD - 20.98 DK - 21.66 CeeDee Lamb FD 6900 DK 6200 Opponent NYG Proj Points FD - 10.52 DK - 12.78 The Cowboys have a very dynamic backfield combination of Ezekiel Elliott and Tony Pollard which has them throwing less than last season but that hasn't slowed Dak's fantasy production. He has been very efficient completing 75% of his passes(2nd to only Kyler Murray) and is one of just four QB's with double-digit touchdowns through four weeks. I love pairing him with CeeDee Lamb who should see a boost in volume this week with Amari Cooper playing banged up with multiple injuries & is coming off a week where he saw a huge decline in snap count. The Giants aren't a cakewalk here(18th in Fpts to WR) but with a projected high pace, and likelihood Zeke is chalk, I love the pivot to the passing game which is fairly priced and has huge upside. Daniel Jones FD 7400 DK 6000 Opponent DAL Proj Points FD - 21.3 DK - 22.06 Kenny Golladay FD 6200 DK 5900 Opponent DAL Proj Points FD - 12.39 DK - 14.64 On the other side of this game, we have a Giants offense that ranks 7th in passing yards game thanks to a great start from Daniel Jones who is averaging 296 yards per game. For fantasy,...

Daily Fantasy NFL GPP Stacks for FanDuel and DraftKings – Week 4

Earlier in the week, we covered our top cash game plays and also looked at all the relevant injuries and now it's time to look at some of the top stacks for GPP formats. Now’s your chance to get DFSR PRO, which will give you access to our NFL and MLB optimizers and our new player lab! Get started for free by clicking the button below. START YOUR FREE TRIAL NOW! High-Priced/Low-Owned Stack Kyler Murray FD 8200 DK 7800 Opponent LAR Proj Points FD - 21.76 DK - 22.42 DeAndre Hopkins FD 7600 DK 7700 Opponent LAR Proj Points FD - 10.3 DK - 12.8 On the surface, this appears to be a bad matchup against the Rams talented defense but not so fast. They have not been that impressive early on giving up the 8th most passing through three weeks with most of that coming from Tom Brady a week ago(432 yards). Kyler not only brings the same passing upside as Brady and has a very comparable stable of weapons, but he has also adds big upside with his legs(5.7 att per game) and the Rams have also given up the 8th most rushing yards(22.3) per game to QB's. Like I mentioned above, the Cards have a very diverse pass-catching group led by superstar Deandre Hopkins. After commanding a huge target share in this offense a year ago, he has only received 18 targets through three games which is a bit concerning and the reason I won't have exposure in cash games. For GPP formats, I love pairing Kyler with Nuke as he is going to be very low-owned due to the combined lack of volume early on and the other top wideouts in plus spots. The matchup also drives more to Hopkins on the outside as Jalen Ramsey is the top corner and has been running over 55% of his coverage in the slot which could neutralize Kirk and Moore this week as tough matchups affect young players much more than the vets. You can't hold down an elite receiver for long and I love targeting this very high upside stack even more when it will be low owned. Lock and load! High-Owned WR/Low-Owned QB Stack Baker Mayfield FD 7300 DK 6200 Opponent MIN Proj Points FD - 17.71 DK - 18.46 Odell Beckham Jr. FD 6600 DK 5800 Opponent MIN Proj Points FD - 12.41 DK - 15.02 First up in this category is the Browns passing game. With Jarvis Landry out and OBJ's...

Daily Fantasy NFL GPP Stacks for FanDuel and DraftKings – Week 3

Arizona Cardinals Passing Game Kyler Murray FD 9000 DK 8300 Opponent JAX Proj Points FD - 26.25 DK - 27.07 DeAndre Hopkins FD 8500 DK 8200 Opponent JAX Proj Points FD - 16.51 DK - 20.5 Rondale Moore FD 5600 DK 5000 Opponent JAX Proj Points FD - 9.44 DK - 11.54 Chase Edmonds FD 6600 DK 5700 Opponent JAX Proj Points FD - 12.07 DK - 13.62 As you can probably tell from the list of players above, what I like about the Cardinals is the number of ways we can stack them. If we are talking cash games, I absolutely love running Kyler naked(get your head out of the gutter) as he has distributed the targets very evenly through two weeks. He is also completed 73.5% of his pass attempts and is averaging 344 yards passing and 25.5 yards rushing per game. Here is a look at the target distribution: Rondal Moore - 13 DeAndre Hopkins - 12 A.J. Green - 12 Chase Edmonds - 9 Christian Kirk - 9 Maxx Williams - 8  Like I mentioned in the opening, there are a ton of ways to stack around Kyler making the Cards my favorite team to multi-enter in GPP formats. At this point, DeAndre Hopkins is a game-time decision but if he plays I think he will be lowered owned for a couple of reasons starting with the target list above and the very high cost of stacking the two together. What I do like is the matchup as the Jaguars have allowed the 6th most passing yards to quarterbacks and the 9th most receiving yards to wideouts through two weeks. They have also allowed their opponents #1 wideouts in Brandin Cooks(5-132-0) and Cortland Sutton(9-159-0) to go crazy and Nuke is on a completely different talent level. The price is going up on Rondale Moore who leads the team in targets and saw his offensive snap % go up from 29% in week one to 46% last week. By no means, do I think this is his ceiling price so I will be...
