Daily Fantasy Football Top Stacks for FanDuel and DraftKings Week 17 – 12/30/18

Posted by on Dec 28, 2018 in featured, News, Other Daily Fantasy Sports, Premium | 0 comments

Daily Fantasy Football Top Stacks for FanDuel and DraftKings Week 17 - 12/30/18 The final week of the regular season is here and that means once more chance to take down a GPP on a big slate. As always, Week 17 has no Thursday or Monday night games giving us a big 15-game slate on Sunday and many different directions to go. The tricky part about Week 17 is figuring out the narratives for each team to see who will be playing, who will be resting, and who is going to take us to GPP glory. In this article, I am going to provide a couple of my top stacking options using my DFS NFL cheatsheet and the DFSR Player Lab. Let's get started. Want to see the rest of this article?

Pittsburgh Steelers Quarterback - Ben Roethlisberger Primary Target - JuJu Smith-Schuster The led with a Steelers stack in last weeks article and as projected, the Saints/Steelers was a shootout leading to Big Ben throwing it 50 times and while he completed just 33 of them(66%) he ended up with 380 yards and three touchdowns. Unfortunately for the Steelers, they ended up on the losing end putting them in a tough spot this week as they not only need a win to get in the playoffs but need help as well with a Ravens loss to clinch the AFC North or a Colts/Titans tie to grab a wildcard spot. This almost guarantees we get a full game from the Steelers starters making them my top stack of the week. This is not the only reason they sit atop my list this week as they get an elite matchup against the Bengals who have given up the third-most passing yards per game(275.7) and the second-most fantasy points per game(23.4) to quarterbacks. Like I mentioned last week, Big Ben is a volume monster as he leads all QB's in pass attempts(630) and yards(4,842) and is fourth overall in touchdown passes(33). After missing three straight games, James Conner is once again questionable to play so I fully expect that volume to continue. At wide receiver, I will be switching things up and stacking Big Ben with JuJu Smith-Schuster as Antonio Brown is dealing with a knee injury that has sidelined him from practice all week. He is having an elite season sitting fourth in the league in targets(156), 5th in receptions(106), fourth in receiving yards(1,389), and has the 9th best catch rate(67.9%) among wideouts with 100 or more...

Daily Fantasy Football Top Stacks for FanDuel and DraftKings Week 16 – 12/23/18

Posted by on Dec 22, 2018 in featured, News, Premium, Weekly Fantasy Football Picks | 0 comments

Daily Fantasy Football Top Stacks for FanDuel and DraftKings Week 16 - 12/23/18 Week 16 of the NFL season is here which means we only have a few more chances to reach the GPP promise land. This week we have a somewhat smaller main slate with two games on Saturday along with the regular Sunday night and Monday night primetime games. The other notable thing about this slate is that there is only one game with a Vegas Total of 50 or more along with multiple injuries and questionable players that can change our decision making when constructing lineups. Let's take a look at some of the top stacks for GPP formats and if you have any questions, be sure to jump into the DFSR member chatroom.

Your subscription will include access to premium content, our lineup optimizer, our members only chatroom, and more! START YOUR FREE TRIAL - AND READ THE REST! Pittsburgh Steelers Quarterback - Ben Roethlisberger Primary Target - Antonio Brown Secondary Target - Jaylen Samuels There is only one game with a Vegas Total greater than 50 making it a terrific place to start with the stacks article. Of the two quarterbacks in this matchup, I lean Big Ben for a couple reasons and it starts with volume as he leads all quarterbacks in 2018 with a whopping 580 attempts and trails only Patrick Mahomes in yards with 4,462 to go along with 30 touchdown passes(6th most). As you can see above in the stats section of the Player Lab, Big Ben is averaging 319 yards per game to Brees' 262 per game and is projected in the system for almost 10 more pass attempts this week with a positive game script as the Steelers are 6.5 point road dogs. I will be pairing Big Ben with his top receiver Antonio Brown who is somehow only the fourth most expensive wideout on the slate. He draws a tough matchup against Saints improved defense and on an individual level will see a ton of Marshon Lattimore but Brown is a top wideout in the league and with JuJu Smith-Schuster not at 100% will likely see 10-15 targets this week and is more than capable of putting up 100+ and multiple touchdowns in a potential shootout. Also, James Conner has been ruled out meaning the backfield is all Jaylen Samuels once again. He is coming off a monster week where he rushed 19 times for 142 yards. The Saints...

Daily Fantasy Football Top Stacks for FanDuel and DraftKings Week 14 – 12/9/18

Posted by on Dec 8, 2018 in featured, News, Premium, Weekly Fantasy Football Picks | 0 comments

Daily Fantasy Football Top Stacks for FanDuel and DraftKings Week 14 - 12/9/18 Week 14 is here and with another big 13-game main slate there are a ton of opportunities to attack GPP's from a stacking perspective. The slate includes five games with a Vegas Total of 49 or greater and seven teams with an implied total of 27 or greater. Let's jump in and take a look at some of the top stacks using the data from our Player Lab. Want to see the rest of this article? Go grab a free three day trial of DFSR Pro or DFSR Basic!

Los Angeles Chargers Quarterback - Phillip Rivers Primary Target - Keenan Allen Secondary Target - Mike Williams To start Week 14 I used two filters looking at quarterbacks projected for 40 or more pass attempts facing defenses ranks 25th or worse against the pass. This narrowed the field down to just two players and I will start with Phillip Rivers and the Chargers for a couple of reasons. First of all, with Melvin Gordon is out once again and without him, the Chargers have somewhat gotten away from their balanced pass/run attack and this was evident last week as they threw the ball 62% of the time against the Steelers with Rivers coming just one yard short of 300 with two touchdowns. While Rivers ranks 15th in pass attempts this season he sits 7th in passing yards thanks to a 69.7% completion rate and 9.0 yards per attempt. He is also the only quarterback to throw for multiple touchdowns in every game this season. The Chargers now face a Bengals team that has given up the second-most passing yards per game(279.8) and the most fantasy points per game to the quarterback position. The argument against Rivers this week is the fact the Chargers are such heavy favorites(-14) and could lean more on their run game but I am willing to take the risk as that could affect his ownership in GPP formats. Looking at FanShareSports, that checks out as Rivers is currently 9th in tags(15) and projected for around 4-6% ownership. You will definitely not get an ownership discount on Keenan Allen(2nd in WR tags with 30) this week as he is coming off a whopping 19 target game and leads all wideouts with an average of 11.8 over the last four games. That doesn't mean he isn't a good play, however, as he should be able to burn the Bengals secondary. If you are looking for a cheaper, lower-owned option to pair with Rivers consider...

Daily Fantasy Football Top Stacks for FanDuel and DraftKings Week 13 – 12/2/18

Daily Fantasy Football Top Stacks for FanDuel and DraftKings Week 13 - 12/2/18 The bye weeks are over and that means we are back to a full slate of games for the Sunday main slate. This week there are five games with a Vegas Total of 48 or greater and with so many games, this will help spread out the ownership. Let's jump in and take a look at some of the top stacks using the data from our Player Lab. Want to see the rest of this article? Go grab a free three day trial of DFSR Pro or DFSR Basic! Your subscription will include access to premium content, our lineup optimizer, our members only chatroom, and more! START YOUR FREE TRIAL - AND READ THE REST! Game Stack - CAR @ TB Quarterbacks - Jameis Winston(TB), Cam Newton(CAR) Primary Targets - Mike Evans(TB), D.J. Moore/Christian McCaffrey(CAR) This week I started with a couple simple filters looking at games with a high Vegas total(50+) combined with a thin spread(<3.5) and despite there being 13 games on the main slate, the Player Lab spit out just two names. I love game stacking this potential shootout as both defenses rank near the bottom of the league in passing yards per game given up with the Bucs giving up the second-most fantasy points per game to quarterbacks and the Panthers giving up the six-most. Looking at the tag counts via FanShareSports, Cam Newton(41 tags) will be slightly higher owned than Jameis Winston(31 tags) but both will be top 5 in ownership this week. Newton is definitely the more consistent option as he has scored 18 or more fantasy points in every game this season but the advantage for Winston is that he comes at a discount on both sites. Mike Evans is the play to pair with Winston and is coming off two monster games where he has caught 12 of 15 targets for 236 yards and a touchdown. He has been inconsistent overall this year but has GPP winning upside. For the Panthers, it feels a little riskier on the receiving end as they have so many targets but the two I will have a ton of exposure to are Christian McCaffrey and D.J. Moore. McCaffrey has been elite lately with nine touchdowns in his last five games while combining for 87 or more yards in four straight(three times over 100+ total yards). Going with a Newton/McCaffrey stack gives you access to almost 100% of the Panthers scoring. Rookie, D.J. Moore has come on strong himself lately accumulating 17 targets in his last two games while catching 15 of them for 248 yards. Like any game stack, I will be running it back with...
