Week 14 NFL DFS Picks - Top Value Plays, Sleepers & Stacking Tips (2025)

Joe Burrow - Fantasy Football Rankings, NFL Injury News, DFS and Betting Picks

RotoBaller's Week 14 NFL DFS value plays, sleeper picks, and tournament stacks for daily fantasy football on FanDuel, DraftKings, and Yahoo. Win big in DFS with our expert research and advice.

The Week 14 DFS slate is defined by high-stakes narratives and offensive predictability. The Cincinnati Bengals are trending sharply upward after Joe Burrow's return delivered a crucial 32-14 Thanksgiving win, injecting life into their playoff hopes. This momentum clashes with the Buffalo Bills, who, despite a recent win, carry the feeling of a team trending down, setting the stage for a critical, high-variance duel where desperation will drive the scoring.

The Los Angeles Rams are in a classic "bounce-back" spot following a shocking defeat and will unleash their hyper-efficient passing attack against the overmatched Arizona Cardinals. The Cardinals' complete inability to run the ball guarantees a high-volume receiving day, maximizing the fantasy floor for their primary targets regardless of the eventual blowout score.

Lastly, the Bears and Packers renew their rivalry in a clash for supremacy in the NFC North. The Packers' defense must strategically commit to stopping the Bears' recently potent rushing attack, which, conversely, forces Caleb Williams into an air-it-out script. This scenario, combined with critical injuries to the Bears' backfield and receiving corps, creates essential value plays and concentrated volume, making these injured teams' pivots key to winning tournaments this week.

 

NFL DFS Stacks & Value Picks: Week 14 Guide

Teams on BYE or playing Thursday,  Sunday PM, and Monday PM (not on main slate):

New England Patriots, New York Giants, San Francisco 49ers, Carolina Panthers, Dallas Cowboys, Detroit Lions, Houston Texans, Kansas City Chiefs, Philadelphia Eagles, LA Chargers

 

Cincinnati Bengals (4-8) vs Buffalo Bills (8-4)

  • Current Spread: Bills -5.5
  • Current Game Total: 53.5

QB Joe Burrow ($8,100 FanDuel): Burrow returned in Week 13 after missing nine games with a Grade 3 sprain of the big toe on his left foot, showing no ill effects. He completed 24/46 passes for 261 yards and 2 scores against a surging Ravens defense. He is facing a Buffalo defense this week that ranks 1st in passing yards against (1,958) and is tied for second in the NFL, allowing just 12 total passing touchdowns. Despite the tough Buffalo pass defense, Burrow loves the bright lights, and in this must-win NFC clash, we should see some vintage Burrow magic.

WR Ja’Marr Chase ($9,100 FanDuel): Chase (16.7 FPPG) secured 7 of 14 passes for 110 yards last week. Against this tough Buffalo secondary, his day won't be easy, but with Joe Burrow back, Chase will see upwards of 10+ targets, solidifying his status as a monster play.

WR Tee Higgins ($7,100 FanDuel): Higgins (11.32 FPPG) missed Week 13 due to a concussion suffered in Week 12. If he clears protocol, his $7,100 price tag makes him a low-risk, high-reward target. In a must-win, potential shootout, trusting Burrow to feed both Chase and Higgins is a great strategy.

RB Chase Brown ($7,300 FanDuel): Brown (12.43 FPPG) has exploded over the last six weeks, accumulating 502 rushing yards, 40 receptions for 185 yards, and 2 total touchdowns. The Bills' pass defense is elite, but their rushing defense is not, ranking 30th in the NFL in rushing yards against (1,696 YDS) and 32nd in rushing touchdowns allowed (18 TDs). Brown is a great pick this week as he should continue his recent success both on the ground and through the air.

QB Josh Allen ($9,200 FanDuel): Former MVP Josh Allen (24.26 FPPG) had a poor passing performance last week, completing just 15 of 23 passes for 123 yards, 1 touchdown, and 1 interception. However, he salvaged his day by rushing 8 times for 38 yards and a score, finishing the week with a total of 17.72 fantasy points. Against the Bengals' poor secondary (29th - 3,191 passing yards against), Allen will look to get the passing game going. With a floor of around 20 fantasy points, investing the $9,200 in Allen is a good idea, as points should be plentiful.

RB James Cook ($9,300 FanDuel): Cook (19.24 FPPG) has been unbelievable in 2025, ranking 2nd in rushing yards (1,228) and tied for 8th in touchdowns (8). Against the 31st-ranked rushing defense, Cook should easily hit his average. His $9,300 salary limits roster flexibility, but he could absolutely be an anchor for your squad.

TE Dalton Kincaid ($5,800 FanDuel): Kincaid (11.16 FPPG) hasn't played since Week 10 but did log some limited practices last week before ultimately being ruled out. If he is active this week, his low price tag makes him a no-brainer, as the Bengals surrender the 32nd most fantasy points to tight ends. Before his injury, Kincaid had a 22.1 fantasy point explosion against the Chiefs in Week 9. If he is ruled out, tight ends Dawson Knox ($4,900 FanDuel) and Jackson Haws ($4,400 FanDuel) are not recommended due to their lack of involvement in the passing game.

SLEEPERS

WR Khalil Shakir ($5,900 FanDuel): Shakir (8.66 FPPG) was disappointing last week (1 catch for 5 yards) after a 110-yard performance just 1 week prior, but he is the educated guess for volume. Outside of Kincaid (if active), Shakir leads the team in targets (75), receptions (55), and yards (569). He's a steal at his $5,900 price tag if you believe this game will be a shootout.

WR Keon Coleman ($5,400 FanDuel): Coleman emerged from the bench (two healthy scratches in a row) last week, securing 2 passes for 9 yards and a score. While he is hard to trust, if you believe he dug his way out of Head Coach Sean McDermott’s doghouse, his low price tag is certainly tempting. Shakir or Coleman? May whoever you decide to roll with, forever be in your favor. 

Suggested DFS Stacks

  • Burrow / Chase (Bengals Passing Stack): It's Burrow and Chase, do I need to say more?
  • Burrow / Chase / Cook (Explosive Stack): Pairing Burrow and Chase and running it back with the NFL’s 2nd-best rusher in 2025, Cook.
  • Allen / Kincaid / Chase Brown (Full-Game Stack): Uses the highest-upside quarterback and runs it back with the two most exploitable value plays on the board.
  • Allen (or Burrow) / Shakir (or Coleman) / Chase (Airing It Out Stack): Uses one of the affordable receivers on the Bills to afford the highest-priced receiver on the Bengals.
  • Burrow / Higgins / Cook (Value Stack): Uses the discounted Higgins and runs it back with the massive volume of Cook.
  • Burrow / Chase / Cook / Kincaid (Show Me The Money Stack): Full investment in the game's four most explosive pieces. SHOW ME THE MONEY!

 

Los Angeles Rams (9-3) vs. Arizona Cardinals (3-9)

  • Game Spread: Rams -7.5
  • Game Total: 48.5

QB Matthew Stafford ($8,000 FanDuel): At 37 years old, Stafford (21.16 FPPG) is playing at an MVP level: throwing for 3,073 yards (4th in the NFL), 31 touchdowns (1st in the NFL), and just 4 interceptions. He is a no-brainer at his $8,000 price tag against a Cardinals secondary that ranks 17th in fantasy points against the WR position. The Los Angeles Rams are looking to get back on track after a shocking 31-28 loss to the Panthers. While the offense looked out of sync (Matthew Stafford threw his first interception since Week 3), they still put up 28 points. I fully believe Stafford will bounce back this week.

WR Puka Nacua ($9,300 FanDuel): Nacua (17.2 FPPG) has been dominant, logging 86 catches (2nd), 1,019 yards (3rd), and 4 touchdowns despite missing Week 7. The Cardinals give up the 17th most fantasy points to the WR position, and if Nacua finds the end zone, he could easily finish as the WR1 on the slate. 

WR Davante Adams ($8,600 FanDuel): Adams (15.15 FPPG) has turned back the clock, leading the NFL with 14 receiving touchdowns on 52 catches for 689 yards. His price has finally caught up (+$400 from last week), but his ability to post 19+ fantasy points (doing so in the previous two weeks) against a defense that has given up 17 passing touchdowns makes him a stable pick. Stafford loves Adams in the red zone, making a Stafford / Adams stack a wise decision.

QB Jacoby Brissett ($7,200 FanDuel): Brissett (17.9 FPPG) has been terrific in relief of Kyler Murray, scoring over 19 points in all 7 of his starts. The Cardinals have absolutely no running game, forcing Brissett to pass 35-40 times (at least) a game (over 40 attempts in 5 of his 7 starts). While the Rams' secondary is very good (allowing 208.5 passing yards per game), Brissett's guaranteed volume and shocking mobility make him a fine DFS target.

TE Trey McBride ($8,600 FanDuel): McBride (15.49 FPPG) is the best and most consistent tight end in the NFL. With 88 catches (1st), 879 yards (6th), and 8 touchdowns (3rd), he is always a smart choice. The Rams give up the 13th most FPPG against the TE position, providing no reason to fade McBride here. McBride is a beast.

WR Michael Wilson ($5,700 FanDuel): Wilson's (7.83 FPPG) value hinges entirely on the injury status of Marvin Harrison Jr. (heel injury suffered late in the 4th last week). Wilson saw a massive workload with Harrison Jr. sidelined in Weeks 11-12 (25 total catches on 33 targets for 303 yards), but that dropped to 3 catches on 7 targets for 36 yards last week (Harrison’s return). If Marvin Harrison Jr. sits, Wilson is a must-start due to his low price and high ceiling.

FADES

RB Kyren Williams ($8,200 FanDuel): Williams (14.68 FPPG) rushed 13 times for 72 yards and a score last week, but the concern is his low volume (no more than 14 carries in the previous 5 weeks) and a brief ankle exit last week. The Rams may roll out a committee against a Cardinals defense that gives up the 22nd most fantasy points to the RB position due to his ankle and the way Blake Corum ran last week (81 yards on just 7 carries and a score), making his high price point a risk.

WR Marvin Harrison Jr. ($6,800 FanDuel): Harrison Jr. (10.54 FPPG) presents a tempting salary-saving option, but his presence on the slate seems like a trap. Harrison Jr. is currently dealing with a heel injury and has yet to practice as of Thursday morning. The fundamental rule in DFS is to avoid players with little to no practice time due to injury, especially when facing a difficult opponent like the Rams' secondary. Harrison Jr. is one awkward move away from providing your DFS squad with a zero-point dud. The risk of re-injury, stacked with his limited practice time, far outweighs the potential reward at this price.

SLEEPER 

RB Blake Corum ($5,800 FanDuel): Corum (4.81 FPPG) is a high-risk, high-reward play. He rushed 7 times for 81 yards and a score last week. Given Williams' ankle injury and the possibility of a massive Rams lead (Spread: -7.5), Corum could see a 50/50 timeshare if Williams is active or a huge workload if Williams is not active, making him a potential DFS tournament winner. Risky? Absolutely. 

Recommended DFS Stacks

  • Stafford / Nacua / McBride (Expensive High Upside Stack): Pairs the top WR and TE from both sides, maximizing volume and efficiency.
  • Stafford / Adams / McBride (To The Air Stack): Uses Adams' superior touchdown rate and runs it back with the most consistent TE in the game.
  • Stafford / Adams / Wilson (Value Stack): Uses Adams' touchdown rate and pairs it with the volume Wilson will receive if Harrison Jr. sits.
  • Brissett / McBride / Nacua (Let It Fly Game Stack): Bets on Brissett's guaranteed volume, stacking his elite TE, and running it back with the highest-ceiling WR on the Rams.
  • Stafford / Adams / Corum (Sleeper Stack): Bets on the Rams' blowout lead/split carries thanks to Williams' ankle injury giving Corum the necessary volume.

 

Chicago Bears (9-3) vs. Green Bay Packers (8-3-1)

  • Game Spread: Packers -6.5
  • Game Total: 44.5

QB Caleb Williams ($7,600 FanDuel): Williams (18.97 FPPG) is starting to figure out the NFL game in year 2, throwing for a total of 2,722 yards (12th), 17 touchdowns (16th), and only 5 interceptions. Caleb and the 9-3 Bears will now travel to the "Frozen Tundra" of Lambeau Field after showing a renewed commitment to the run, torching the Eagles for a total of 281 yards and 2 scores last week. The Packers' defensive game plan will be to shut down this rushing attack. If the Packers shut down the Bears' rushing attack, Williams will be asked to air it out for the Bears to get rolling offensively. Williams will face a tough Packers secondary (7th best, 186.5 passing yards per game against), which makes him a risky selection. However, at his low price point, he should be considered in DFS.

WR D.J. Moore ($5,600 FanDuel): Moore (8.5 FPPG) is the primary target if Rome Odunze (foot injury, has yet to practice as of Thursday morning) is ruled out. The veteran Moore has flashed in 2025, scoring 20.9 fantasy points just two weeks ago. If Odunze sits, Moore steps into the WR1 role and ups his target share.

RB D’Andre Swift ($6,400 FanDuel): Swift (14.05 FPPG) is coming off his best performance of the season (18 carries for 125 yards and a score, plus 1 catch for 13 yards). Fellow RB Kyle Monanga is dealing with an injury that has held him out of practice as of Thursday morning. If Monangai sits, Swift should see all the work he can handle. Despite the Packers holding opponents to 98.3 yards a game (8th), the season-ending injury to run stopper Devonte Wyatt last week should open up running lanes for Swift. At just $6,400, Swift will easily exceed his low price point if Monangai is unable to go.

QB Jordan Love ($7,400 FanDuel): Love (17.26 FPPG) bounced back last week against the Detroit Lions with 234 yards and 4 touchdown passes (tying his career high). He takes on a Bears defense that has surrendered the 7th most fantasy points to opposing QBs in 2025. Love is in a perfect position to keep rolling and could be a steal at his $7,400 price point.

WR Christian Watson ($6,200 FanDuel): Watson has taken the reins as the GB WR1, securing at least 45 yards in all six games since his Week 8 debut. He is coming off a 10-target game (4 receptions for 80 yards and a score). The Bears' secondary has given up the 3rd most fantasy points to the WR position, making Watson a great DFS target.

RB Josh Jacobs ($8,600 FanDuel): Jacobs (16.01 FPPG) was held out of the end zone last week (17 carries for 83 yards) but showed that he is healthy after a knee injury forced him to miss Week 12. Jacobs ranks 18th in yards (731) and 2nd in touchdowns (11). The Bears' rushing defense is middle of the pack (surrendering the 15th most fantasy points to the RB position), meaning Jacobs should find running room and the endzone.

SLEEPERS: 

RB Kyle Monangai ($6,300 FanDuel): Monangai (rushed for 591 yards (23rd) and 5 touchdowns (18th)) carried the ball 4 more times than Swift last week. Given his fantasy production and role on this Bears team over the previous five weeks (24.3, 8.8, 10.2, 10.8, and 22 fantasy points), he is the preferred back if active. He’s the more aggressive runner, more suitable to fight for yards against a tough Packers front. Monitor the injury report closely.

WR Luther Burden III ($5,100 FanDuel): With Odunze potentially sitting, Burden's (5.2 FPPG) involvement should see an uptick (5, 5, 6 targets over the last 3 weeks). Someone will need to step up if Odunze sits, and Burden is the cheapest way to access the passing volume.

TE Colston Loveland ($5,200 FanDuel): The talented rookie exploded onto the scene five weeks ago (29.8 fantasy points) but has since struggled to get going. Loveland (7.01 FPPG) was, however, tied for the most targets on the team last week and is a great selection at his low price point. Considering Loveland, even if Odunze plays, could pay off.

WR Dontayvion Wicks ($5,700 FanDuel): Wicks had his best game of the season last week (6 catches for 94 yards and a score), but is now battling a calf injury, which has limited him at practice thus far. If he suits up, he is a solid value. If Wicks is unable to play, this sleeper pivots over to fellow WR Romeo Doubs ($5,800).

Recommended DFS Stacks

  • Love / Watson (GB Passing Stack): Pairs the ascending QB with the primary beneficiary of the Bears' weak secondary.
  • Love / Jacobs / Moore (Full Game Stack): Utilizes the expected touchdown equity of Jacobs and runs it back with the most stable Bears receiver *if Odunze sits.
  • Love / Watson / Loveland (Lovable Stack): Uses two high-upside players at low price points. Gotta LOVE it.
  • Love / Wicks or Doubs / Moore: (Salary Saver Stack): Pairs Love with one of his two low-priced WR options and runs it back with the Bears WR1 *if Odunze sits. 
  • Williams / Moore / Jacobs: (Air and Ground Stack): Pairs Williams with his potential #1 target and runs it back with one of the top rushers in the NFL.
  • Love / Swift / Watson (Mix and Match Stack): Bets on the Bears' rushing success, forcing the Packers to score, using the low-cost Watson.
