DFS Week 1: Daniel Jones, You Heard Me, Value Stack

Two sites, two builds, one approach: stack value at quarterback, lean on wide receiver volume, and mix in touchdown equity to chase ceiling.


FanDuel Lineup

Play Breakdown:
Daniel Jones is the value quarterback who makes everything else fit, paired with Michael Pittman Jr. for affordable correlation. Bijan Robinson anchors the backfield with explosive workload upside, while TreVeon Henderson is the cheap salary relief play with home run upside.

The wide receivers bring both volume and scoring punch:

  • Mike Evans remains the go-to touchdown threat in Tampa.
  • Puka Nacua should dominate targets in Los Angeles even with the addition of Davante Adams and provides steady floor with spike potential.
  • Brian Thomas Jr. is Jacksonville’s WR1 with a new play-caller, giving him genuine upside.

George Kittle offers a strong ceiling at tight end, while the Patriots defense is a value home play with a decent matchup.


DraftKings Lineup

Play Breakdown:
Jones at $5,100 is one of the best QB values on the slate, and stacking him with Pittman Jr. brings built-in correlation. Chase Brown and James Conner are the steady RB plays, while Mike Evans provides touchdown equity at a discount.

Ricky Pearsall serves as the cheap WR pivot to unlock the rest of the build, and George Kittle carries upside at TE. Yes, that is two 49ers without Brock Purdy at QB, but Persall is just too cheap to pass up, as is Kittle. Brian Thomas Jr. fills the FLEX role as Jacksonville’s featured receiver, with the Cardinals defense rounding out the roster as a budget-friendly fit against what could be the worst offense in the league.


FanDuel vs DraftKings

  • FanDuel: Leans on star power at RB and WR with Bijan Robinson and Puka Nacua.
  • DraftKings: Balances the roster with Brown, Conner, and Pearsall, while still featuring the Jones–Pittman stack.

The overlap: Daniel Jones + Michael Pittman Jr. is the stack across both builds, with Mike Evans’ touchdown equity and Brian Thomas Jr.’s WR1 role serving as core plays. Don’t be scared of that Colts duo, as Danny Dimes will provide value with his legs and the Dolphins secondary isn’t expected to provide much opposition with Jack Jones and a guy who is literally named Storm Duck as starting corners.

2023 NFL Mock Draft

There are plenty of great mock draft simulators out there, for this I used Pro Football Network to make it easy to copy into this post. The big ones here for me is the number three QB, I don’t see a world where Anthony Richardson slips all the way to Detroit at 18, but I really feel the Colts need to go with a more ready QB hence me giving them Will Levis, and then the slip just based on need. If the top four play out this way, expect a trade soon after by a team to come up and get Richardson. The other one that slipped here that I don’t expect to slip as far once the draft starts is Bijan Robinson. Robinson in the best RB prospect in years, which is the only reason he is being considered in the first round, much less possibly the first half of the first round. He slipped to the Cowboys here and would be an ideal fit for them given the Tony Pollard injury and the fact the Cowboys are best when the running game is on.
