NFL DFS Stacks for DraftKings, FanDuel - Top Week 14 Daily Fantasy Football Picks

December 6, 2023

Skyler's NFL DFS stacks for FanDuel, DraftKings GPP tournaments and Week 14 of the 2023 NFL season. Target these GPP stacks for daily fantasy football lineups.

The regular season is winding down in the NFL, which means we only have a handful of weeks remaining where we can hit big in DFS for weeks where we have 10-plus games. This is the final week where bye weeks are an obstacle as the Arizona Cardinals and the Washington Commanders won't be playing, giving us a 10-game main slate to dissect on DraftKings and FanDuel.

In this weekly article, we'll be taking a look at stacks and bring-back options that are ideal plays in GPPs (guaranteed prize pools) on DraftKings and FanDuel. Salaries and scoring formats can differ on both sites, making some players much better options on one site compared to the other.

When looking at stacks and bring-back players each week, you have to take into account potential game scripts and correlation. Before the 14th week of the season, here are my favorite stacks and bring-back options in NFL DFS on DraftKings and FanDuel.

Chicago Bears vs. Detroit Lions

• Justin Fields ($6,800 DK, $7,900 FD)
• DJ Moore ($6,500 DK, $7,700 FD) or Cole Kmet ($4,300 DK, $5,600 FD)

Justin Fields loves playing against the Detroit Lions it appears. Dating back to last season, Fields has three straight matchups versus the Lions where he has registered 104 or more rushing yards. After not tallying more than 11 rushing attempts in his first six starts this season, the dynamic quarterback for the Chicago Bears has garnered 12-plus carries in back-to-back starts (including a 104-yard, 18-carry performance against the Lions in Week 11). The Lions are surrendering the fourth-most fantasy points per game to quarterbacks this season. Running a naked (unstacked) Fields is a viable strategy as he could hit his ceiling outcome with just his rushing production.

There aren't many stacking options with Fields, but I would prioritize DJ Moore if you're adamant about pairing him with someone on the Bears. Moore leads Chicago with a 27.2% target share as he's tallied at least eight targets in seven of his last nine games. In his first two games with Fields back as the starter, Moore has combined for 18 receptions, 210 receiving yards, and one touchdown on 22 targets.

Cole Kmet leads the Bears in red zone targets (11), receptions (nine), and touchdowns (four) this season. The young tight end caught all seven of his targets for 43 yards in Week 13, proving that he's evolving into one of Fields' security blankets. Double-stacking Fields is never a popular strategy, so that is one way to get different in tournaments.

Bring-back options:

• Amon-Ra St. Brown ($8,200 DK, $8,200 FD)
• Jahmyr Gibbs ($6,600 DK, $6,900 FD), David Montgomery ($6,400 DK, $7,600 FD), or Sam LaPorta ($6,100 DK, $7,200 FD)

Not many players have been as consistent as Amon-Ra St. Brown this season. The talented wideout has recorded at least 95 receiving yards or one touchdown in all 11 of his starts thus far. St. Brown boasts the second-highest targets per route run percentage (29%) among wide receivers who have run at least 200 routes this season. Only Tyreek Hill at an eye-popping 36.5% ranks higher than St. Brown.

Jahmyr Gibbs and David Montgomery have shown they can both be effective in DFS when they are both healthy. Gibbs has a favorable matchup as the Bears have given up the third-most receptions (73), the most receiving yards (713), and the second-most receiving touchdowns (five) to running backs. Montgomery gets to face his former team for a second time this season after rushing for 76 yards and a score on 12 attempts in Week 11. Sam LaPorta exploded for career-best marks in receptions (nine) and receiving yards (140) in Week 13 against the New Orleans Saints. The rookie tight end is emerging as the clear No. 2 option for Jared Goff in the passing game.

San Francisco 49ers vs. Seattle Seahawks

• Brock Purdy ($6,500 DK, $8,100 FD)
• Brandon Aiyuk ($6,900 DK, $7,700 FD)
• Deebo Samuel ($6,800 DK, $7,500 FD) or George Kittle ($5,900 DK, $6,600 FD)

Stacking Brock Purdy and the San Francisco 49ers proved to be a fruitful ploy in Week 13. Purdy had his third game of eclipsing 300 passing yards and multiple passing touchdowns versus the Philadelphia Eagles last week, firmly putting him in the NFL MVP race for some. The second-year quarterback didn't need to do much against the Seattle Seahawks on Thanksgiving as he totaled 209 passing yards, one touchdown, and one interception. That being said, attacking the passing game of the 49ers can be wise this week as Christian McCaffrey will be extremely popular.

One can dream of witnessing a year where Brandon Aiyuk gets consistent volume in a loaded 49ers offense. Even with inconsistent targets coming his way, Aiyuk has scored a touchdown in four consecutive games, and he's notched at least 50 receiving yards in nine of his 11 starts. Aiyuk also continues to get the valuable targets down the field as he's logging the seventh-highest air yards per route run (3.47) among wideouts who have run 200-plus routes this season.

Deebo Samuel had a statement game in Week 13 versus the Eagles, turning just seven touches into 138 scrimmage yards and three touchdowns. The versatile pass-catcher now has five touchdowns in his last five games. George Kittle has combined for only 87 yards on seven catches in his last two games, but he is generating chunk plays through the air. Kittle has recorded a reception of at least 24 yards in five of his last six games this season.

Bring-back options:

• D.K. Metcalf ($6,700 DK, $7,300 FD)
• Tyler Lockett ($5,600 DK, $6,600 FD) or Jaxon Smith-Njigba ($4,100 DK, $5,500 FD)

We finally got an explosive performance from DK Metcalf in Week 13 as the big-play wideout hauled in six of his eight targets for 134 yards and three touchdowns against the Dallas Cowboys. More touchdowns should be headed toward Metcalf down the stretch as Geno Smith looked healthier versus the Cowboys. Metcalf is 11th in air yards per route run (3.18) among receivers with at least 200 routes run. The 49ers are also allowing the eighth-most fantasy points per game to wide receivers.

Tyler Lockett has yet to have a 100-yard game this season, and he's no longer the clear No. 2 option alongside Metcalf. At the same time, Lockett is still a trusted target for Smith, and the Seahawks will likely need to throw to keep pace with the 49ers in this matchup. Jaxon Smith-Njigba continues to see his role increase, with the rookie wideout catching seven of his 11 targets for 62 yards in Week 13. Smith-Njigba had a touchdown reception called back versus the Cowboys, so he was close to having an even better outing.

Buffalo Bills at Kansas City Chiefs

• Josh Allen ($8,300 DK, $9,000 FD)
• Stefon Diggs ($8,800 DK, $8,700 FD)
• Gabe Davis ($5,800 DK, $6,800 FD), Dalton Kincaid ($5,500 DK, $5,800 FD), or Khalil Shakir ($3,900 DK, 5,500 FD)

The game with the highest projected total (47.5) on the main slate is none other than the impending showdown between the Buffalo Bills and the Kansas City Chiefs. Josh Allen and the Bills are coming out of their bye week, so the hope is that the offense can iron some of their turnover issues out.

Between the quarterbacks in this game, Allen has the more trusted skill-player group, and he provides us with a higher ceiling due to his rushing production. Allen has the third-most red zone rushing attempts (19) and the second-most red zone rushing touchdowns (nine) among quarterbacks. Jordan Love just had 267 passing yards and three touchdowns in Week 13 against the Chiefs.

After starting the season with at least 100 receiving yards in five of his first six games this season, Diggs has failed to eclipse 100 receiving yards in six straight games. The volume is still there for Diggs, though, as he's posted eight-plus targets in four of those six games. While Allen is always a threat to score in the red zone, Diggs leads the Bills in red zone targets (15), receptions (11), and receiving touchdowns (six).

With the Bills not having a definitive No. 2 option behind Diggs, they are trotting out a combination of Gabe Davis, Dalton Kincaid, and Khalil Shakir. Davis is the ultimate boom-bust player as he can go for multiple touchdowns one week and zero catches another.

That being said, Davis has combined for eight receptions for 161 yards and a touchdown on 18 targets in his last two games. Kincaid has seen a steady role in Buffalo's aerial attack, commanding at least six targets in six straight games. The Bills ran 11 personnel at just a 55% rate from Weeks 1 through 8. But from Weeks 9 through 13, they've run it at an 83% rate, which has benefited Shakir. Shakir has a catch of at least 23 yards in five consecutive games.

Bring-back options:

• Travis Kelce ($7,800 DK, $8,000 FD)
• Isiah Pacheco ($6,700 DK, $7,000 FD) or Rashee Rice ($5,400 DK, $6,300 FD)

Travis Kelce remains the lone reliable pass-catching option for the Chiefs. The veteran tight end has just five touchdowns and two 100-yard games this season. On the other hand, the Chiefs know they have to force-feed Kelce the ball if they want to get their passing game on track ahead of the playoffs. Paying up at the tight end position is always a way to get different from the field in tournaments.

My favorite bring-back option from the Chiefs might very well be Isiah Pacheco. The Chiefs are leaning on Pacheco and the ground game to win games as the passing attack lacks options outside of Kelce and Rashee Rice. Pacheco has at least 16 opportunities (carries and receptions) in four straight appearances and he's seeing more looks through the air with Jerick McKinnon sidelined. If the Chiefs want to see improvements in their passing game, they should lean into using Rice more and getting the ball in his hands quickly. Rice has the second-most yards after the catch per reception (8.1) among wide receivers.
