Week 12 was a so-so week Robinson Cano Jersey when it came to our NFL DFS stacks. Cole Beasley threw a touchdown, but sadly not to Josh Allen, and D.J. Moore got hurt. On the plus side, Wayne Gallman paid off with the Giants' D/ST, and Baker Mayfield found Austin Hooper for a touchdown. Sometimes stacks have to be out there a bit to deliver on FanDuel and DraftKings, so we're back with another week of some safer cash-game plays and some wild GPP options.
It's the first and probably last time Sam Darnold will make an appearance in this article. Yeah, it's probably crazy, but you can read about why it makes some sense below. We're also all-in on the Packers, and what would a stacks article be without Taysom Hill in it?
Be sure to follow our Twitter account to see all of our DFS content heading into kickoff every week.

Week 13NFL DFS Picks: Top cash game stacks for DraftKings, FanDuel
QB Taysom Hill and WR Michael Thomas, Saints @ Falcons (DK/FD stack)
The best part of this stack is we have recent evidence that it can work. Two weeks ago, Thomas topped 100 yards against the Falcons while Hill ran for two touchdowns and targeted Thomas 12 times. Atlanta might make some adjustments based on Wilson Ramos Jersey that game, but the Hill and Thomas tandem has too much ability to be slowed much.
Then, of course, there's the Falcons' putrid pa s defense to account for. It's allowed the second-most receiving yards for WRthis season, and even though Hill isn't the best thrower of the football, New Orleans will pa s enough to take advantage of Atlanta's suspect secondary in Week 13.
WEEK 13 DFS TOURNAMENT LINEUPS: |
RB Aaron Jones and DEF Green Bay Packers vs. Eagles (FD stack)
Hope you like Packersbecause one way or the other, you'll be wanting some in your lineup against the Eagles. This stack is predicated on Green Bay's defense playing wellenough to take advantage of Carson Wentz's league-worst sack and interception totals. If that happens, Jones should have plenty of chances to score with positive field position.
The Eagles are Robert Gsellman Jersey a solid run defense when it comes to efficiency, but in part due to the field-position struggles, they've allowed a rushing touchdown per game to RBs this season. Jones should keep that average at least where it is in Week 13.
WEEK 13 DFS CASH LINEUPS: |
QB Aaron Rodgers and WR Davante Adams, Packers vs. Eagles (DK stack)
If you prefer the aerial threats, this is also a good matchup. Green Bay just outcla ses the Eagles by a lot, and you can't go wrong with almost any Packers player this week.
Somehow, Rodgers is only the fifth-highest priced QB on DK this week. Sure, that's only $100 here or there, but it's still silly. Play him with confidence with his top target, and if you want to make it a tournament stack, Allen Lazard looks healthy and productive once again, too.
Week 13DraftKings, FanDuel Picks: Best stacks for daily fantasy football GPPs/tournaments
QB Cam Newton and WR Jakobi Meyers, Patriots @ Chargers (FD stack)
Newton hasn't been too sharp lately, but he's due to breakoutand the Chargers keep giving up Jason Vargas Jersey lots of points. Josh Allen just ran for a touchdown against L.A., and Newton should find his way into the end zone, as well.
When Newton throws, it's still Meyers who's his most-trusted receiver despite a bumpy portion of the season. The converted QB finds spots in the defense to get open, and the Chargers leave lots of such spots there for the taking.
WEEK 13 PPR RANKINGS: | | | | |
QB Matthew Stafford and TE T.J. Hockenson, Lions @ Bears (DK/FD stack)
To stack Stafford and Hockenson isn't really that outrageous, but the DFS sites have Stafford's price very low this week, showing the matchup with the Bears is apparently a worry despite Chicago just allowing the Packers to cruise past the 40-point mark.
Earlier this season, Hockenson caught five pa ses for 56 yards and a score against Chicago, and Stafford didn't play poorly, either. We know Stafford can have the occasional big game, Jeff McNei Jersey and at a discounted price on both sites, he's worth trying.
WEEK 13 STANDARD RANKINGS: | | | | |
QB Sam Darnold and WR Denzel Mims, Jets vs. Raiders (DK/FD stack)
You have to be feeling really bold to trust Darnold in any sort of fantasy football setting. More often, we're advising you to play a defense against him. So, this isn't a stack you should invest heavily in, but it has more merit than some will give it credit for.
The Raiders Juan Lagares Jersey have allowed more than 20 DK and FD points per game to quarterbacks, a bottom-half mark in the league, and while some might think to play Jamison Crowder or Breshad Perriman (and go for it if you'd like), Mims is the one who's seen consistent targets. He's had at least seven in each of the Jets' past three games, and he could have a good showing against Las Vegas.
