Welcome to Week 4 of NFL DFS stacks for DraftKings and FanDuel. The fourth week of the NFL season is full of surprises: The Vikings are 3-0, my Commanders are 2-1, and while Dallas squeaked out a win last night against the Giants, it is still the talk of the morning talk shows!
This article will focus on Sunday's 1 p.m. main slate for DraftKings and FanDueal. Last week, I targeted the Saints, Lions, and Ravens. I was on the right track with Derrick Henry and the Ravens, but that Saints/Eagles game did not meet its high-scoring expectations. Let's see who looks good this week!
I'll be here all season to talk stacks and strategy (@winesportstalk on X). Who do I think is due for a breakout game this week? Let's find out! These are my favorite game stacks for the NFL DFS slate on DraftKings and FanDuel, which kicks off at 1:00 p.m. EDT on Sunday, September 29.
Washington Commanders at Arizona Cardinals
- Jayden Daniels (DK $6.5K, FD $8.2K)
- Terry McLaurin (DK $5.8K, FD $6.5K)
- Brian Robinson Jr. (DK $6.1K, FD $7.3K)
The Commanders just came off a massive win against the Bengals on Monday Night Football. Usually, I'd be hesitant to target them on the road on a somewhat short week but a Kliff Kingsbury revenge game looms. Washington's offensive coordinator returns to Arizona with another young, dynamic quarterback and Terry McLaurin, who is finally getting targeted by the bombs many said Daniels couldn't throw.
This will be a high-scoring and close game, so we should see Daniels running and throwing to his receivers and running backs, including Brian Robinson Jr., who should get more receptions with Austin Ekeler out with a concussion.

Jayden Daniels: “I know, I just put that ***** up”

Bring-back option:
- Marvin Harrison Jr. (DK $7.5K, FD $8.2K)
I wish Kyler Murray could be the Cardinals' bring-back, but since he can't, we'll target another young, dynamic wide receiver in Marvin Harrison Jr.
Not-so-sneaky option: Stack Murray and the Cardinals. Washington's secondary is horrible, so if the Commanders can keep the Cardinals running game at bay, there will be a lot of throws going Harrison's way.

San Francisco 49ers vs. New England Patriots
- Brock Purdy (DK $6.1K, FD $7.7K)
- Jauan Jennings (DK $5.6K, FD $6.8K)
- Jordan Mason (DK $6.7K, FD $8.8K)
The 49ers return home this Sunday and face a New England team traveling cross-country and allowing opposing quarterbacks 258 yards per game. San Fran has lost its last two road games, and it is due for a bounce-back.
No one expected Jennings to have the game he had last week, and I doubt anybody thinks he will do it again, so yes, I'm targeting him again. Jordan Mason is still reasonably priced, so with George Kittle still limited in practice this week, the running back could be in for another big game.
Greg Olsen on people being surprised that Brock Purdy balled out against the Rams without Deebo, CMC, and Kittle:
“I kind of just laughed because we covered a million Brock Purdy games over the last couple years. We called his first ever start, the NFC Championship, we kind of… pic.twitter.com/5H96Jpgyii

Bring-back option: How about none?
I'm not using a bring-back option for this game. I know that's the strategy touted by most, but I don't see a receiver on the Pats being worth that spot. Use another 49er (Brandon Aiyuk), or look for a chalky stud on another team for your other WR position.
Sneaky option: The above stack is the sneaky option!
Minnesota Vikings at Green Bay Packers
- Sam Darnold (DK $5.8K, FD $7.9K)
- Justin Jefferson (DK $5.8K, FD $7.9K)
- Aaron Jones (DK $6.4K, FD $7.6K)
Could Darnold get another win against rival Green Bay on the road? We'll find out this Sunday. Darnold had a bruised knee after last week's game but is poised to play this week. The Packers will be a challenge at Lambeau Field, but they still allow 228 passing yards per game. At $5.8 on DK, Darnold is worth the risk.
Thank you, Green Bay. See you this Sunday. @PlayersTribune

— Aaron Jones 3️⃣3️⃣ (@Showtyme_33) September 25, 2024
Aaron Jones returns to Green Bay, and with the Packers allowing an average of 105.7 rushing yards per game this season, this storyline will be exciting. This will be a game where folks expect Darnold to return to seasons of the past, which will keep ownership low, even at his low price of $5.8K on DraftKings.
Bring-back option:
- Josh Jacobs (DK $6.6K, FD $7.1K)
Good luck in your tournaments, and see you next week!
