Game Stack - Arizona @ Seattle Kyler Murray FD 8300 DK 7300 Opponent SEA Proj Points FD - 24.65 DK - 24.65 Marquise Brown FD 8200 DK 7200 Opponent SEA Proj Points FD - 16.52 DK - 20.39 Rondale Moore FD 5600 DK 4200 Opponent SEA Proj Points FD - 10.47 DK - 13.24 Tyler Lockett FD 7500 DK 5600 Opponent ARI Proj Points FD - 15.65 DK - 19.1 There are two games that stand out above the rest in terms of game totals and I am going to focus on the Cards/Seahawks as it feels a little more friendly to game stack with both defenses ranking outside the Top 25 overall. In this game specifically, it has been Geno Smith garnering the most love and rightfully so as he is having a terrific season. This has me pivoting to the other side with Kyler Murray who has been good, not great to start the year as we have yet to see the upside game but I feel that changes this week. It comes down to the matchup as he faces a Seahawks defense that is ranked 31st in DVOA against the pass and giving up the 7th most passing yards per game(259.8) through five weeks. The projected upside is what really has me liking Kyler over Geno in this game because while the Cardinals have allowed the fewest passing yards on deep passes this season, the Seahawks have allowed the 6th most(stats via NFL Savant). That brings us to his pass catchers who I will have a lot of exposure to this week both as single and double-stack options. Let's start with Marquise Brown who is second in the league in targets(55), sixth in receiving yards(417), and seventh in receiving touchdowns(3). Now let's look at some upside stats as Hollywood is also seventh in air yards and air yards and has a 9.4 aDOT on the season. I am also very high on his teammate Rondale Moore who will be playing just his third game of the season but has improved each week and...
Daily Fantasy NFL GPP Stacks for FanDuel and DraftKings – Week 5
Daily Fantasy NFL GPP Stacks for FanDuel and DraftKings - Week 5 Welcome back football fans. Week four in the NFL is here and DFSR has you covered. Earlier in the week, we look at our top cash game picks and now it's time to look at some stacks that help us get to the top of or GPP contests. Let's get started. 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 Upside Game Stack - Chargers/Browns Justin Herbert FD 8200 DK 7100 Opponent CLE Proj Points FD - 22.12 DK - 22.12 Mike Williams FD 7400 DK 7100 Opponent CLE Proj Points FD - 14.9 DK - 17.88 Nick Chubb FD 9400 DK 8000 Opponent LAC Proj Points FD - 17.94 DK - 18.46 There are a ton of ways I will be stacking this game in multi-entry GPP formats but let's start off with my favorite build. A lot of people will be going with the Eagles this week but there is one key stat that has me point towards Herbert/Williams as my top QB/WR stack. For GPP's we are always looking for big plays and Hurts faces the Cardinals who has allowed the fewest fewest deep completions and fewest yards on those deep plays while Herbert faces a Browns defense that has allowed the 5th most deep completions and 4th most yards on those plays. That lines up very well with Mike Williams who has a 12.2 aDOT this season and has tallied double-digit targets, seven or mroe receptions and 100+ yards in two of three games with Keenan Allen out of the lineup. That leads us to Justin Herbert who has been terrific this season with 279 passing yards, multiple touchdowns, adn 23 or more fantasy points in three of four games and the game he underperformed, he was far less than 100% dealing with a rib issue. We will have to monitor Keenan Allen's status before we full-send on this stack but he missed practice on Wednesday and Thursday leading me to believe he will miss yet another game. On the other side, I will be running it back with Nick Chubb in most of my builds in this game stack. He enters the game as one of just four running backs getting over 20 rush attempts per game, is second in rushing yards, and second in rushing touchdowns. He has also been invovled in the passing game with eight targets which is only five fewer than teammate Kareem Hunt. He now faces a Chargers...

For a limited time, we're offering a free one-week trial to all the sports that we cover - that's optimal lineups for NFL and MLB - for the same low price. Get started now! START YOUR FREE TRIAL NOW! Quarterbacks Josh Allen FD 9000 DK 8200 Opponent PITProj Points FD - 28.29 DK - 28.29 In terms of per-game fantasy scoring, there is a class of quarterbacks at the top of the list and then there is everyone else. Josh Allen and Lamar Jackson lead that class this season with Jalen Hurts, who we’ll get to in a second, right behind. Allen has 10 passing touchdowns on the season and has added two rushing touchdowns. He is fourth in quarterback rushing yards and third in passing attempts. He just has such a high floor each and every week because he literally does everything. And in Week 5, the Bills have the highest implied total at 30.5 as -14 home favorites against the Steelers. This is a tough spot to fade Allen in cash games. Jalen Hurts FD 8600 DK 8100 Opponent ARIProj Points FD - 26.78 DK - 26.78 Hurts is third in fantasy scoring this season behind Jackson and Allen and like those two offers a high floor in every game because of how much he will take off and run. The Eagles dealt with bad conditions in Week 4 but things are lining up well this time around even going on the road. They are 5.5 favorites against the Cardinals who rank 29th in DVOA on defense and 28th against the pass. And with only four passing touchdowns on the season in 123 passing attempts, one could make the case that Hurts is running bad in that category. There could be even more room for upside if this game turns into a shootout. Running Backs Dalvin Cook FD 7300 DK 7300 Opponent CHIProj Points FD - 18.11 DK - 19.77 There was some concern about Cook’s shoulder going into the Week 4 game in London for the Vikings. But he ended up playing and carried the ball 20 times on 63% of the Minnesota offensive snaps. Now, he comes into Week 5 in the running back sweet spot as a -7 home favorite against the Bears who rank 24th in the league against the rush this season. Cook has seen a price dip on both sites and is especially a good deal on FanDuel. He hasn’t been a total workhorse back this season, but this could be a smash spot when we are...

Game Stack - Atlanta Falcons/Cleveland Browns Marcus Mariota FD 7300 DK 5600 Opponent CLE Proj Points FD - 18.17 DK - 18.17 Drake London FD 6300 DK 6100 Opponent CLE Proj Points FD - 10.84 DK - 13.31 Amari Cooper FD 7500 DK 6300 Opponent ATL Proj Points FD - 14.25 DK - 17.57 I originally had the Raves/Bills game stack plugged into this spot but Doug talked about the high floor/high ceiling of stacking Allen and Diggs in the cash article so I am going to pivot off for a couple of reasons. First of all, stacking them together with a run-back of Mark Andrews is a very expensive route and leaves us value hunting at almost every other spot. Instead, I will go with a value quarterback in Marcus Mariota who has impressed early in the season returning at least 3x value in all three games. He faces a Browns defense that ranks 21st in DVOA against the pass and 21st in fantasy points to the quarterback position. Picking who to stack with Mariota is fairly easy, as well with 57% of the targets going to two players. I lean towards Drake London who has been getting 32% of those and has been impressed in his rookie season with 54 or more yards in each game and has scored a touchdown in back-to-back games. He faces a Cleveland defense that ranks 23rd in fantasy points to wideouts and in terms of upside, has given up the 6th most completed deep balls and 4th most completed yards on those deep balls(via NFL Savant). Choosing a run back is also fairly easy here as Jacoby Brissett has concentrated his targets as well and I will ride with wideout Amari Cooper who is getting 30% of those. He started out slow this season with just three catches in week one but has caught 16 of 21 targets in weeks two and three with back-to-back 100-yard games, reaching the endzone in both. This stack is also very affordable and allows us to fill in with pieces of the more chalky Ravens...

Quarterbacks Josh Allen FD 8900 DK 8400 Opponent BALProj Points FD - 27.45 DK - 27.45 There is a group of elite quarterbacks in the league right now that are very tough to fade week in and week out in cash games and that’s the case again here for Week 4. Allen is QB2 in DraftKings scoring behind Lamar Jackson (who he’s playing) and comes in here with the highest team implied total on the week. The Bills are firmly committed to just throwing it all the time and I think people will be going back and forth between which QB to play in this game. It’s worth noting that it sure seems like Lamar is running super hot on touchdowns with 10 passing TDs in just 88 attempts. I’ll take Allen here. Jalen Hurts FD 8600 DK 8200 Opponent JAXProj Points FD - 27.39 DK - 27.39 Meanwhile, Jalen Hurts is QB3 in DraftKings scoring despite having thrown only four touchdowns through the first three weeks. There would seem to be positive touchdown regression coming his way and the Eagles have the second-highest implied total on the week at 27.5 points. His team has scored the second-most points in the NFC and Hurts is second in the league in rushing yards for quarterbacks. And he’s been pretty accurate too, compelling 67% of his passes. The touchdowns are going to come and if they do Hurts might actually be underpriced here. Strongly consider Jared Goff at $5900 on DraftKings. The Lions have scored the second-most points in the league through three weeks and could be in a shootout here against Seattle in a game with a 50 over/under. Running Backs Christian McCaffrey FD 8800 DK 8700 Opponent ARIProj Points FD - 22.79 DK - 25.62 It hasn’t been the greatest start of the season for CMC and the Panthers’ offense, but we are most definitely buying low now. He’s coming under $9K on both sites and gets a matchup against a Cardinals ranked 31st in DVOA on defense through the first three weeks of the season. He’s played 84% of Carolina’s snaps this season and they just haven’t really been in a pace-up matchup, until now. This is a smash spot for McCaffrey who is coming too cheap now that he’s had a few “down” weeks....
