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.

NFL Season Predictions (That Will Absolutely Age Poorly)

We’ve made it. Fantasy draft boards are wiped clean, preseason panic attacks are in the rearview, and the NFL season kicks off tonight. Dallas heads to Philadelphia, and Jerry Jones is once again basking in the spotlight—not because the Cowboys are contenders, but because he just traded away one of the league’s best defenders. Only Jerry.

So, with chaos already underway, here are the NFL predictions that will almost certainly go wrong.


AFC Picks

  • East: Buffalo Bills
  • North: Baltimore Ravens
  • South: Houston Texans
  • West: Kansas City Chiefs
  • Wild Cards: Denver Broncos, New England Patriots, Cincinnati Bengals

The AFC is quarterback country. Each division winner boasts the top QB in that group, plain and simple. The Broncos? Not a one-year wonder—defense upgraded, offense loaded, and Drake Maye ready to pop. The Bengals? They’ll need fireworks weekly to cover up their defense, but Joe Burrow & Co. can drop 50 on anyone. Surprise miss: the Chargers stumble out of the picture.


NFC Picks

  • East: Philadelphia Eagles
  • North: Green Bay Packers
  • South: Tampa Bay Buccaneers
  • West: Los Angeles Rams
  • Wild Cards: Washington Commanders, Minnesota Vikings, Carolina Panthers

The Eagles stay perched atop the East, but Washington isn’t going away. Micah Parsons boosts the Packers into division glory, while Baker Mayfield keeps the Bucs rolling. The Rams emerge from a crowded West where everyone hangs around into December. Minnesota rides JJ McCarthy into a playoff berth, and Carolina is the shocker—sliding in while Detroit, with two new coordinators, slides out.


Awards & Big Finish

  • MVP: Joe Burrow
  • Defensive Player of the Year: Micah Parsons
  • Offensive Rookie of the Year: Ashton Jeanty
  • Defensive Rookie of the Year: Malaki Starks
  • Super Bowl: Ravens over Packers
