DFS Week 6 Builds: Jacobs Workload, Jeanty Versatility, and Low-Cost Stacks Define the Slate

DFS Week 6 Builds: Jacobs Workload, Jeanty Versatility, and Low-Cost Stacks Define the Slate

After some chaos last week (and no wins to show for it), Week 6 offers a reset with several paths to steady points and bounce-back value. Between high-volume running backs, mid-tier receivers, and flexible stacking options, this slate has the potential to swing back in our favor.

DraftKings Lineup

Play Breakdown:
Justin Herbert anchors the DraftKings build in what should be a fast-paced matchup with Miami. Ladd McConkey fits the stack as he finally had a good game last week and hoping he repeats that again this week. Jake Ferguson has been the top tight end in fantasy this year, and should be in line for another big week.

Josh Jacobs may have seen his touchdown streak end, but the workload hasn’t. Ashton Jeanty’s dual-threat skill set continues to flash, making him a worthy pairing. Horton and Legette round out the receiving corps as low cost flyers with real upside. Green Bay’s defense provides cap-friendly stability against Cincinnati.

FanDuel Lineup

Play Breakdown:
Matthew Stafford leads the FanDuel side in a correlation stack with Davante Adams, banking on volume and red-zone work. Jacobs again anchors the backfield, while Jeanty repeats as FLEX for both value and explosiveness.

Stefon Diggs comes in discounted but still commands a target share worth chasing. Michael Pittman Jr. and Hill provide safe mid-tier floors, while Haskins supplies lineup flexibility if his usage climbs after the Hampton injury. The Packers D remains the budget-friendly constant across both builds with a pocket passing Joe Flacco in Cincy for less than a week and behind a line that puts the offensive in offensive line.

FanDuel vs DraftKings

  • DraftKings: Herbert–McConkey stack; Jacobs–Jeanty backfield blend; Pickens for ceiling.
  • FanDuel: Stafford–Adams stack; Diggs/Pittman stability; Jeanty as repeat FLEX.
  • Overlap: Jacobs, Jeanty, Packers D — workload and matchup volume drive the correlation.

DFS Angle of the Week

  • Jacobs’ TD streak may be over, but his touch volume still locks him in as a cornerstone play.
  • Jeanty’s all-purpose role keeps paying off in both formats.
  • The Herbert–McConkey combo offers an efficient, low-cost QB stack.
  • Stafford–Adams could be one of the quieter high-volume duos of the week.
  • Value WRs (Horton, Legette, McConkey) make room for balanced builds.
