Top 3 Week 14 NFL DFS Stacks for Optimal DraftKings & FanDuel Lineups

Week 14 presents an 11-game slate for DFS players to attack. To gain leverage in GPPs, stacking is a strategy that every DFS player should use. Rostering a quarterback with one or more of his pass catchers gives lineups the upside it needs to have a chance at finishing near the top of the leaderboards. The NFL DFS advice below will evaluate how to utilize NFL DFS stacks for Week 14 DraftKings and FanDuel lineups by finding the top the stacking options from Awesemo’s Top Stacks Tool. The Top Stacks Tool will break down the stack in terms of its overall projection of being the No. 1 stack of the week, the ownership of the quarterback, if it is a value or not and the overall leverage on the rest of the field.

Top NFL DFS Stacks for Week 14 on DraftKings + FanDuel

Top Stack: Kansas City Chiefs

Hosting the Raiders, the Chiefs are the highest rated offense to stack for Week 14, according to Awesemo’s Top Stacks Tool. No team presents a higher implied team total than Kansas City this week (29 points) and this AFC West matchup is the third-largest on the slate (48 points). Via Awesemo’s Advanced Stats, the Chiefs remain one of the most pass heavy offenses in the NFL, ranking fifth to last in game script adjusted rush rate. Patrick Mahomes has struggled with interceptions (12), but still ranks fifth in passing touchdowns (25) and this is a strong matchup for the quarterback. Las Vegas has yielded the fourth most passing touchdowns (22) and just three weeks ago, Mahomes exposed this Raiders defense for 406 yards and five passing touchdowns, resulting in a season-high 39.24 DraftKings points. Overall, Mahomes has flourished against this division rival throughout his career, scoring 29.3 DraftKings points per game in seven matchups with the Raiders.

As for stacking options, let’s begin with Tyreek Hill. The receiver ranks 10th in target share (27.3%), second in air yards (1,321), seventh in red zone targets (15), 12th in targets over 20 yards (19) and fourth in DraftKings points per snap among receivers (0.37). Hill erupted for seven catches, 83 yards and a pair of touchdowns against the Raiders in Week 10 and might come with lower ownership than usual after his season-worst performance last week against the Broncos. Travis Kelce also had a quiet outing against Denver and should bounce back in a big way this week. The 32-year-old ranks third in the NFL in target share among tight ends (22.8%), including nine red zone targets and ranks sixth in the league in yards after the catch (421). Las Vegas has been extremely susceptible to tight ends this season, allowing the fourth-most receptions (73), third-most yards (813) and third-most touchdowns to the position (9), and just like Mahomes, Kelce has a long history of destroying the Raiders. In his last 10 meetings with the club, Kelce is amassing 19.7 DraftKings points per game.

Quietly, Byron Pringle has become the Chiefs’ No.2 receiver. While his target share has been underwhelming at 10.2%, Pringle has ranked third on the team in route rate in their last three games (69%). The 28-year-old leads the Chiefs in yards per reception this season (14.7) and is a viable dart throw at his near minimum price tags, that is guaranteed to come with little to no ownership.

Top Stack: Los Angeles Chargers

The Chargers also bring huge upside this week and are stack that must be considered. Hosting the Giants, Los Angeles’ implied team total ranks third on the slate (26.25 points). New York is the seventh-worst graded defense on PFF, and the Chargers have been a pass-first offense, ranking third-to-last in game script adjusted rush rate, per Awesemo’s Advanced Stats. This season, Justin Hebert ranks 11th in yards per attempt (7.5) and third in passing touchdowns (27). As of late, the 23-year-old has been brilliant, throwing for over 300 yards and multiple touchdowns in four of his past five starts. For his career, Herbert owns a strong career average of 27.3 DraftKings points per game when playing behind an implied team total of at least 25 points.

With Keenan Allen (health protocols) missing his first game of the season this weekend, Mike Williams should see a massive role. Even playing alongside Allen, Williams possesses a 20.1% target share this season. Also, the 27-year-old ranks 14th in red zone targets (13) and 15th in targets greater than 20 yards (18). Williams has the potential for double-digit targets this Sunday and is criminally underpriced for being Herbert’s top option. Via Awesemo’s projections, Williams is rating as the best receiver value on DraftKings this week. With Allen missing, Jalen Guyton should operate as the Charges’ No.2 receiver. The third-year wideout leads Los Angeles with a strong 16.1 yards per reception this season and is fresh off a four catches for 90 yards and a touchdown showing against the Bengals last week. Price near the minimum on both DraftKings and FanDuel, Guyton is one of the better punts on the slate.

Jared Cook is another cheap option to consider for Chargers’ stacks. The veteran sports a 12.8% target share, including seven red zone targets, while running a route on 66% of Herbert’s dropbacks. Cook has recorded double-digit DraftKings points in five of 12 contests this season, and is rating as the No.1 tight end value available on DraftKings at only $3,200, via Awesemo’s projections.

Value Stack: Seattle Seahawks

The Seahawks have been a disappointment recently, but this is a great time to buy low against the Texans. Houston is the sixth-worst graded defense on PFF and they are giving up the sixth-highest yards per attempt (7.2). In this spot, Seattle carries a 24.5-point implied team total. This season, Russell Wilson has been efficient, ranking sixth in yards per attempt (7.9). The 33-year-old has thrown for multiple scores in five of nine starts and brings a ceiling above 25 DraftKings points according to Awesemo’s Bust Tool.

Per usual, Tyler Lockett and D.K. Metcalf are the best options to stack with Wilson. This season, the two receivers boast the same exact target share at 24.9%. While Lockett has only seen five red zone targets this season, he has been one of the most utilized deep threats in football. Currently, Lockett leads the league in targets north of 20 yards (28), ranks ninth in aDOT (14.9) and 12th in air yards (1,165). Metcalf on the other hand has obtained 13 red zone targets, ranks 12th in targets over 20 yards (19) and 16th in air yards (1,083). Scoring 16.9 DraftKings points per game across his last five, Lockett is the safer target of the two, and he is forecasted for less ownership than Metcalf, per Awesemo’s ownership projections.

Overall, this is the best spot the Seahawks have found themselves with Wilson active this season, and combing the quarterback with one of these receivers is an appealing GPP strategy this weekend.
