Every week, I will go through the players I am targeting to play in DFS for all games, tournaments, and game stacks.
The idea is that this will paint a clearer picture of framing lineups.
| Week 14 DFS Picks |
|---|
| Core Plays |
| Tournament Picks |
| Team & Game Stacks |
One of my favorite ways to play DFS from a tournament standpoint is small-field, single-entry to five-max games with fields of 5K or smaller.
Both sites even offer these types of games with fewer than 100 entries (albeit at a higher cost of entry) if you want to go after a really small field.
In these contests, my approach is to go with full-game stacks.
You will likely lose a lot of weeks, but if you get the game right, you will gain a significant advantage.
Just cashing in on one of these over an 18-week season can make your entire year.
When doing these, I want to aggressively build around games that have a wider range of outcomes.
Still, with the reduced number of entries, you can also eat some chalky game stacks because we are going further in the overall game stack than our opponents likely will.
This is the spot where you will find some missing names from the core and tournament play sections.
Just because a player is not mentioned in those two pieces does not mean I will have zero exposure to them.
These are the games I am circling for those tournaments in Week 14, but you can also tie these games into your stacks for other tournaments.
I will analyze the player selections and game writeups, but please refer to the Week 14 Worksheet for a detailed breakdown of the players and games.
Bengals at Bills
There is potential for this game to be played in the snow.
At minimum, it will be cold, but it still has the highest total (53.5 points) on the main slate.
It is extremely tough to load this game up with the big pieces of Josh Allen, James Cook, and Ja’Marr Chase, but they can fit in around a number of the low-to-mid price point plays on the slate we are already incorporating into the fold this weekend.
Buffalo has cheaper additions in Dalton Kincaid and Khalil Shakir, who can attack the Bengals' soft middle-of-the-field defense.
Things get sketchy when trying to add Chase Brown and Tee Higgins to those builds, which is close to impossible, but is more feasible going down from Allen to Joe Burrow.
That said, you can mix and match Bengals pieces, and going for Brown versus Chase provides some flexibility for those Allen and Cook stacks that try to cover every Buffalo touchdown.
Colts at Jaguars
