Quarterbacks Patrick Mahomes FD 9100 DK 8100 Opponent HOUProj Points FD - 27.82 DK - 27.82 The Chiefs are huge favorites here against the Texans, and for good reason. Though Houston put up a valiant effort against the Cowboys last week, this is still one of the worst teams in the league. And KC should be able to step on the gas early and often. They have, as a team, run the ball a bit more of late with Pacheco which is a concern with Mahomes ceiling if the game starts getting out of hand, but he’s a tough fade in this matchup considering he has 400+ more passing yards than the next-closest guy and his 33 touchdowns are six more than the next-closest. Jalen Hurts FD 9000 DK 8200 Opponent CHIProj Points FD - 26.47 DK - 26.47 If you’re not going to play the runner up in the MVP odds right now, you might as well play the favorite. That’s kind of where we are with the quarterback situation on this slate, and in some ways, Hurts is in an even better spot than Mahomes. He’s playing the Bears who have the leagues worst defensive DVOA on the season, coming in terrible against both the run and the pass. This is a smash spot for Hurts whose 10 rushing touchdowns ranks first among quarterbacks. Plus he has a 22:3 TD: INT rate on the season, making him just about as efficient as it gets for a quarterback. It’s a close call between these two QBs but I do think you should play one of them in cash. Running Backs Miles Sanders FD 7800 DK 6500 Opponent CHIProj Points FD - 16.52 DK - 17.63 There’s definitely a world where we are just stacking a couple of the best teams in cash and calling it a day. Miles Sanders helps some with that if you want to lean on the Eagles’ running attack to get you all the way home. Somewhat quietly, Sanders is fifth in the league in rushing yards on the season and his 11 rushing touchdowns are tied for third in the league. The price on both sites is right in range of acceptable and like we said with Hurts, the matchup against the Bears is about...

Game Stack - Vikings @ Lions Jared Goff FD 7100 DK 5600 Opponent MIN Proj Points FD - 19.16 DK - 19.16 Amon-ra St. Brown FD 8600 DK 7800 Opponent MIN Proj Points FD - 21.19 DK - 26.19 T.J. Hockenson FD 6500 DK 5100 Opponent DET Proj Points FD - 10.94 DK - 13.65 Hard not to start with a game that currently sits with the second-highest total(53.5) of the entire season as Vegas is clearly expecting a track meet and it makes sense as this is one of two games that features two teams ranked Top 10 in pace. I will have several different core builds in this game but a majority of them will center around the passing game. At quarterback, it starts with Jared Goff who has been more consistent lately and comes cheaper than Cousins on both sites. He is also coming off one of his best games of the season throwing for 340 yards and two touchdowns in a blowout win against the Jags. He now gets a great matchup against a Vikings defense that has given up 300+ yards passing in four straight weeks, ranks 24th in DVOA against the pass, and 26th in fantasy points against quarterbacks. I love pairing him with his #1 option in Amon-Ra St. Brown who is back to elite status with eight or more targets in six straight games(average 10) while catching 80% of them for 555 yards and he has also scored three touchdowns in his last two games. He does move around the field quite a bit pre-snap, but has run over 50% of his routes in the slot and gets a great matchup against the Vikings who have not only allowed the 3rd most fantasy points to wideouts but have also allowed the 7th most receiving yards in the slot. We could double-stack this one in hopes of Detroit trailing in the second half but the waters are muddied a bit with Jameson Williams now in the mix. In the lineups where I double stack, I lean towards D.J. Chark who scored a...

Justin Jefferson and Amon-Ra St. Brown top the Daily Fantasy Football Cash Game Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings Week 14 – Main Slate

Justin Jefferson and Amon-Ra St. Brown top the Daily Fantasy Football Cash Game Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings Week 14 - Main Slate Want access to the projections that power these picks? 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 8700 DK 8300 Opponent NYJProj Points FD - 25.49 DK - 25.49 It’s tough to know what to do with Josh Allen right now. He injured his arm a few weeks ago and the last three games, from a fantasy perspective, have been a bit rough. In that stretch, he’s averaged just 224 yards passing per game. And the Bills have made a bit more of a commitment to the run. But that’s also meant a price drop for the QB and this is still the second-highest fantasy-scoring player on DraftKings overall this season. The matchup against the Jets isn’t ideal but the Bills are -9.5 favorites at home and would really like to win this game. I think I am fine running him on the past performance and the upside, but recognize that there is some risk here. Joe Burrow FD 8300 DK 7000 Opponent CLEProj Points FD - 23.06 DK - 23.06 Burrow is coming a touch cheaper than the top-tier quarterback group this week and that could really work out to our advantage in this game against the Browns. This one has the second-highest over/under of the entire slate and Bengals are favored against Deshaun Watson and company. With Ja'Marr Chase returning last week and Joe Mixon back this week, the Bengals have a full complement of weapons and Burrow has a very high floor with about as high an upside of anyone in the game. Cleveland is the 27th-ranked defense in football this season, though they are worse against the run than the pass. Regardless, I like Burrow here especially if Cincy is going to keep its foot on the gas. Jared Goff FD 7100 DK 5600 Opponent MINProj Points FD - 18.9 DK - 18.9 The 5-7 Lions are -1 favorites at home against the 10-2 Vikings and the latter doesn’t have any major injuries. We live in weird and wild times. Goff has real upside if this game gets into a shootout and is coming cheap enough on DraftKings to live with the fact that he doesn’t get out and run really at all. He’ll need to be a high-volume passer which is a bit risky, especially if the Lions get out to a lead here. But he...

Daily Fantasy NFL GPP Stacks for FanDuel and DraftKings – Week 13

Posted by on Dec 3, 2022 in featured, Football Strategy |

Daily Fantasy NFL GPP Stacks for FanDuel and DraftKings - Week 13 Welcome back football fans. Week 13 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! Chargers/Raiders Game Stack Justin Herbert FD 8100 DK 7200 Opponent LV Proj Points FD - 23.73 DK - 23.73 Keenan Allen FD 7700 DK 6500 Opponent LV Proj Points FD - 15.3 DK - 18.85 Josh Jacobs FD 9500 DK 7900 Opponent LAC Proj Points FD - 27.08 DK - 29.29 This is one of three games with a 50+ total this week and gives us two below-average(LAC ranked 22nd) to terrible(LV ranked 32nd) defence's to target. If multi-entering, it makes sense to attack this game in multiple ways but if playing just one lineup, this is how I am attacking it, ownership or not. This combination gives us a ton of flexibility as all three players fall into the second tier of pricing at their positions and it also attacks both defence's biggest weaknesses and that starts with the Raiders who are dead last in DVOA against the pass. That is perfect timing for Justin Herbert who is coming off his best fantasy effort of the season last week and has tallied 20 or more DraftKings points in both games with Keenan Allen back in the lineup. It doesn't even feel like the two are fully on the same page yet either as Allen has caught just 10 of 15 balls but has 94 yards in one game and 49 yards and a touchdown in the other. If those are his floor games moving forward, I think there is a shot we could see the ceiling this week. Speaking of ceiling games, Josh Jacobs is coming off his in an overtime game against the Seahawks where he rushed 33 times for 229 yards and two touchdowns while also adding another 74 receiving yards. While I don't think he duplicates that effort, half those fantasy points would suffice, to be honest. Either way, Jacobs is getting elite usage averaging 25.9 touches per game going back to week four(8 games), has five 100+ yard rushing games in that time and is averaging 28 DK/24.2 FD points per game. He now faces a Chargers defense that ranks 29th in DVOA against...

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 Justin Herbert FD 8100 DK 7200 Opponent LVProj Points FD - 23.75 DK - 23.75 There are going to be a couple of games on the main slate that we’ll be almost exclusively targeting and this is one of them. Chargers and Raiders has a 50.5 over/under, the third highest of the slate and Justin Herbert is gifted the opportunity to face the worst pass defense in the league. Las Vegas hasn’t been able to stop anyone in this department all season and are almost definitely going to have their hands full against a Chargers team that throws the ball the second-most in the NFL. Herbert has such a high floor in this game especially if it turns into an up-and-down affair. He’s in play on both sites, but especially FanDuel. Trevor Lawrence FD 7500 DK 5900 Opponent DETProj Points FD - 20.23 DK - 20.23 Trevor Lawrence is coming cheaper on DraftKings, a spot we might end up using him for cash this week. He’s got a great matchup against the Lions who rank 24th in DVOA defense and allow the third-most opponents’ plays per game on the season. That’s a great meeting point when trying to get a high floor play at a lower cost. Lawrence has had to throw a bit more over the last couple of weeks in games against the Ravens and Chiefs, and that could be the case again if this turns into a shootout with Detroit. The 51.5 over/under is the second-highest of the main slate and we could see plenty of exposure to this game. Lawrence runs just enough (3.5 times a game) to keep the floor higher in that respect. Of course, strongly consider Patrick Mahomes whose Chiefs have the highest implied total of the slate. Jared Goff makes for a DraftKings consideration at just $5100. Running Backs Josh Jacobs FD 9500 DK 7900 Opponent LACProj Points FD - 27.08 DK - 29.29 Jacobs is an interesting case this week for cash. On the one hand, with his usage he’s nearly a lock at these prices, even on FanDuel where he’s getting close to $10K. But there’s also the fact that he’s dealing with some injuries and isn’t going to practice at all before Sunday. That could leave...
