My
Weekly DFS
The
Stack
This week I am employing the stack
strategy for my Week 9 DFS lineup. I had originally looked at the Texans
matchup with the Colts, but the injury to rookie quarterback Deshaun Watson
changed that.
My
Lineup:
QB-Drew Brees
RB-Mark Ingram
RB-Adrian Peterson
WR-Devin Funchess
WR-Marquise Goodwin
WR-Ted Ginn Jr
TE-Zach Ertz
PK-Jake Elliott
D/ST-Rams
With Watson on IR, I switched my stack to
the Saints who are playing at home this week against the Buccaneers. Anytime
you have Drew Brees ($8,300) at home, you have to like his matchup and the Bucs
have allowed some big games to opposing quarterbacks. Of course with this stack
I will lean with Mark Ingram ($7,900) in the backfield to lead in touches and
touchdowns this week. Normally I would like to go with Michael Thomas, but
lately wide receiver Ted Ginn Jr ($5,700) has trending upward and I love his
price.
At the other running back spot I am
hanging my hat all over Cardinals running back Adrian Peterson ($6,800). It’s a
risky play with quarterback Carson Palmer on Injured Reserve and backup Drew
Stanton now under center. Although risky, Peterson is facing a Niners defense
that allows the most fantasy points to opposing running backs; so I like the
matchup.
The Colts will be without Vontae Davis and
even though Deshaun Watson is on the IR, I still like wide receiver DeAndre
Hopkins ($9,100) outcome on Sunday. Regardless who is under center, Hopkins
will be a focal point and the Colts allow the 5th most fantasy points to
opposing receivers.
My only questionable play (I think) is the
Niners wide receiver Marquise Goodwin ($4,800). The Niners will be without
Pierre Garcon (Injured Reserve) on Sunday and even with the changes at
quarterback Goodwin should be a factor in the pass game and could see even more
targets.
I am rolling with a favorite at tight end,
Zach Ertz against the Broncos. The Denver D has been poor versus opposing tight
ends, allowing the 2nd most fantasy points and last week surrendered 7 catches
for 133 yards and a score (to Travis Kelce). I like Ertz on Sunday.
My place kicker is the Eagles Jake Elliott
($5,000). The kid has been kicking well and have to play the odds of
opportunity; the Eagles at home against the Broncos.
I wrap up the lineup with the Rams defense
and special teams ($4,800). The Rams are averaging more than 12 fantasy points per game
and have a decent matchup this week against the Giants.
That's My Take.
