This piece will identify some of my favorite NFL DFS stacks of the weekend. Be sure to use our Stacking tool within our Player Models to find the highest projected stacks, the stacks that figure to be chalky, and more. Our Correlation Dashboard is also an excellent resource for finding hidden edges in stacking positions and games.
You can also plug these stacks into our Lineup Builder to hand-build the rest of it, or you can optimize it with our projections. And if you like to create multiple lineups, our Lineup Optimizer allows you to effortlessly create up to 300 lineups.

Week 12 NFL DFS Stacks and Picks
Josh Allen + Stefon Diggs + Dalton Kincaid
- Josh Allen ($8,100 DraftKings, $9,200 FanDuel)
- Stefon Diggs ($8,800 DraftKings, $8,700 FanDuel)
- Dalton Kincaid ($5,300 DraftKings, $6,000 FanDuel)
If you’ve read any of the position articles, you’d know I’m all over the Buffalo passing attack, and this first stack should come as no surprise.
Despite a tough matchup with the Jets, Josh Allen completed 20 of 32 passes for 275 yards and three touchdowns. This Philadelphia defense has been a consistent target, as most teams opt to abandon the run and go pass-heavy against them.
Stefon Diggs’ past two games have come against the Broncos and Jets, who have excelled at defending opposing WR1s on the year. He gets a far softer landing spot this week against Philadelphia, who is allowing the third-most fantasy points to opposing wide receivers on the year.
Diggs still has one of the most valuable roles in fantasy, and it feels like he’s due for a big game.
Dalton Kincaid is a perfect second stacking option, as Philadelphia has been torched by tight ends. They’ve allowed the fourth-most yards per target and fifth-most DraftKings points per game.
When it comes to bringing it back on the Philadelphia side, there are plenty of options. Obviously A.J. Brown is appealing, but he is quite expensive. Any of Brown, DeVonta Smith, or D’Andre Swift are viable bringback options.
Tank Dell + Calvin Ridley
- Tank Dell ($6,900 DraftKings, $7,800 FanDuel)
- Calvin Ridley ($6,000 DraftKings, $7,100 FanDuel)
These two big-play receivers face off, and both have big-play potential to speed up the game.
Tank Dell is scorching hot right now, with 83.4 DraftKings points over his last three games, including two games above 30. His volume has been awesome, with 11, 14, and 10 targets over the three-game stretch. He is running a little hot on touchdown luck but is still averaging 19.8 DraftKings points per game over the stretch without touchdowns.
Calvin Ridley finally performed last week, catching seven of nine targets for 103 yards and two touchdowns. He was finally able to convert on his opportunities, as a lot of his volume comes on deep passes. Those deep passes make Ridley’s outcomes more volatile, but that’s the exact type of guy we like using in tournaments.
Houston has allowed the sixth-most yards per target to perimeter receivers on the year. He only had seven DraftKings points when these teams first played, but he had two drops, including a 35-yard touchdown. He’s still underpriced, in my opinion.
Kyren Williams + Trey McBride
- Kyren Williams ($6,600 DraftKings, $8,200 FanDuel)
- Trey McBride ($4,700 DraftKings, $6,100 FanDuel)
Kyren Williams is set to return to the lineup after missing four games with an ankle injury. I was originally planning on taking a “wait and see” approach with Williams, but Los Angeles released Darrell Henderson Jr, showing they’re confident in WIlliams’ health.
Now, Henderson is back on the practice squad, so they technically could elevate him for this contest. If they do, I’d likely be off of Williams. If they don’t elevate Henderson, then I’m expecting a heavy dose of Williams. In Williams’ last game action, he took 20 carries for 158 yards and a touchdown against this same Cardinals’ defense.
On the Arizona side, Trey McBride once again profiles as a great play this week. He played every snap and had a 24% target share. He’s now seen nine and seven targets in Kyler Murray’s two games back from injury. Los Angeles has allowed the ninth-most DraftKings points to opposing tight ends on the year.
