Week 12 NFL DFS Stacks for DraftKings, FanDuel - Top Daily Fantasy Football Picks Include Baker Mayfield, Mike Evans, Jayden Daniels, and Jared Goff

Baker Mayfield - Fantasy Football Rankings, Waiver Wire Pickups, Draft Sleepers

Dawn's Week 12 NFL DFS stacks for FanDuel, DraftKings GPPs, and the 2024 NFL season. Target these GPP stacks as daily fantasy football lineup picks and sleepers.

Welcome to Week 12 of NFL DFS stacks for DraftKings and FanDuel. It's Week 12 of the NFL season, and the drama continues! The Giants released Daniel Jones, Jameis Winston won the "Interview of the Week" award, and Jerry Jones continues to be Jerry Jones. Let's go!

This article will focus on Sunday's 1 p.m. main slate for DraftKings and FanDuel. Last week, I targeted San Francisco (sigh), Detroit (yes!), and Pittsburgh (meh). Let's see which stacks look good for tournaments this week!

I'll be here all season to talk stacks and strategy (@dawntepper). 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. EST on Sunday, November 24.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers at New York Giants

The Giants are not good, and bringing Tommy Devito in after sacking (pun intended) Daniel Jones isn't going to make much of a difference. That said, the Giants are at home and will get a bit of a burst from a change at quarterback, so if they can make this matchup a close one, Baker Mayfield could be in for a big game.

On paper, the Giants aren't allowing many fantasy points, but Mike Evans is back after three weeks away. If Evans is on the field, Mayfield will find him. Using Giants WR Malik Nabers as a bring-back option gives you a low-owned receiver with a high upside. The Bucs are allowing the second-highest amount of fantasy points this year; even the Giants should find a way to score.

Bring-back option:

 

Detroit Lions at Indianapolis Colts

The Lions keep putting up numbers, and the Colts keep allowing over 100 fantasy points a game, including over 14 a game to tight ends. Jameson Williams will keep this stack on the lower-owned side, but if you use Sam LaPorta instead, you can use Josh Downs as a low-owned bring-back instead of Michael Pittman Jr.

The Colts' stacks are projected to be higher-owned, which is no doubt due to recency bias and playing at home, making Detroit an even better stack for tournaments. The Lions also allow the fourth-highest amount of fantasy points to wide receivers, so going with Downs or Pittman will make for a great bring-back.

Bring-back option:

  • Josh Downs (DK $6.2K, $6.9K)

Washington Commanders vs. Dallas Cowboys

At first glance, the Commanders' stack is chalky, but if we slide in Ekeler, that significantly lowers ownership. In the past, this would be a game the Commanders would lose because that's who they were. That isn't happening this weekend against their NFC East rival, even if QB Jayden Daniels continues to nurse his sore ribs.

Bringing back Jalen Tolbert instead of CeeDee Lamb will help us with ownership and value. Washington is not good at defending the pass, but Dallas' Cooper Rush is throwing the ball, giving Washington the edge. With Ekeler keeping ownership down, you could still bring back Lamb, whose price has decreased to $7.3K on DK.

Bring-back option:

  • Jalen Tolbert (DK $4.1K, FD $5.3K)
  • CeeDee Lamb (DK $7.3, FD $8.4K)

Good luck in your tournaments, and see you next week!
