The purpose of this weekly article is to identify team/game stacks that we are going to use for an NFL DFS GPP. For those of you that don’t know, a “team stack” is simply multiple players from the same team (I rarely ever use more than three players on a given team).
A “game stack” is similar, except we are going to use players from both teams in a given game. Focusing on team stacks and game stacks is incredibly useful in the NFL DFS GPP environment. That being said, let’s get to this week’s top NFL DFS stacks!
Top Game Stack
Baltimore Ravens @ Kansas City Chiefs (53)
There’s really not a whole lot to say about this game besides that you are going to want to get some exposure to it in one or more of your NFL DFS GPP lineups. Both offenses come into this game scorching hot and I’ll be sure to get some shares of both teams in DFS this weekend.
Keep in mind, both quarterbacks are extremely expensive, but that should help keep ownership down a bit throughout the industry.
Baltimore Ravens
- Lamar Jackson ($7,000)
- Marquise Brown ($5,900)
- Mark Andrews ($4,600)
- Mark Ingram ($5,700)
- Willie Snead ($4,200)
Kansas City Chiefs
- Patrick Mahomes ($7,600)
- Travis Kelce ($7,100)
- Sammy Watkins ($6,800)
- Mecole Harman ($5,000)
- Demarcus Robinson ($5,200)
Top Team Stacks
Tampa Bay Buccaneers – Tampa Bay comes in with what is looking like the fourth highest implied total on the slate sitting around 27 points. This is a great number to focus on when building NFL DFS GPP lineups. Usually, I’ll always have a big focus on teams that have an implied total of 25 or more points and a game script that I can predict/support.
The Giants are in my opinion, the absolute worst team in defending the pass right now and their run defense isn’t much better – this leads me to having a very positive game script for the Bucs’ offense as a whole. The one thing that is scaring me a bit is: unlike a typical Bruce Arians offense (pass-heavy), TeamRankings.com shows us that the Bucs sit towards the bottom in the NFL for pass attempts per game.
First off, I don’t think Bruce Arians has completely changed his coaching style. Secondly, as the sample size continues to grow, my bet is that the Bucs will be one of the most pass-heavy teams in the NFL. Mike Evans and the boys are due for a big week.
- Mike Evans ($6,600)
- Peyton Barber ($4,600)
- Jameis Winston ($5,400)
- Chris Godwin ($6,900)
- O.J. Howard ($3,800)
Buffalo Bills – I love the way the Bills have been playing on offense. Josh Allen is crushing it to start the year and I love him in all formats in DFS this week… especially for a NFL DFS GPP. He’s due for a big passing game and will always do damage via the run (not to mention the Bengals are a bottom five defense in defending not only the pass, but the run as well). Bills Mafia, here we go!
- Josh Allen ($5,900)
- John Brown ($5,500)
- Zay Jones ($3,300)
- Frank Gore ($4,400)
- Cole Beasley ($4,400)
San Francisco 49ers – I’m all in for going right back to the well to roster some 49ers in a NFL DFS GPP. I don’t think anyone is going to play them this week and their pricing is more than reasonable. This is a great spot to get contrarian in your lineup builds.
- George Kittle ($5,800)
- Jimmy Garoppolo ($6,200)
- Deebo Samuel ($4,500)
- Matt Breida ($5,400)
- Marquise Goodwin ($5,000)
- Dante Pettis ($4,500)
Arizona Cardinals – Although Arizona has a slightly lower implied team total than I’d like to see (~24 points), I am really liking the idea of getting some Arizona stacks in my NFL DFS GPP lineups. Larry Fitzgerald has been incredibly successful versus a zone defense and that is what Carolina is going to bring to the table.
Kingsbury’s air raid offense is going to have multiple “trip” sets of receivers on one side of the field for most of this game and I think the Panthers will really struggle in defending that for a full game. If the Cardinals’ offensive line can hold the pass rush (that’s a big “if”), Kyler Murray is going to have a monster day with both his arm and legs.
- Larry Fitzgerald ($5,100)
- Kyler Murray ($5,800)
- David Johnson ($6,800)
- Christian Kirk ($5,000)
- Damiere Byrd ($3,000)
