The Top DFS Stacks on FanDuel and DraftKings in Week 4

Sep 28, 2017

Every week I’ll be diving into stacks that mainly involve the week’s highest over/unders. I’ll lead with my favorite game stack from the highest implied over/under game, followed by analyzing the next three games with the highest totals on the slate, and then a low-owned stack.

Top Stacks From Games With High Vegas Totals

Carolina Panthers (19.75) @ New England Patriots (28.75) — 48.5 over/under

Tom Brady ($9,500/$8,300) + Mike Gillislee ($6,000/$5,400) + Christian McCaffrey ($6,400/$6,800)

Sometimes it can be frustrating to figure out which pass-catcher to stack Brady within a given week since he seemingly spreads the ball around and any of them can be a stud or a dud. So, how about rostering none of them? By rostering Brady and Gillislee together, you’ll have potential access to the all of the Patriots’ touchdowns with their slate-high 28.75 implied team total. Gillislee has the fourth-most carries from inside the 5-yard line (5), and he’s converted four of them for a touchdown. He’s also responsible for 52 percent of their overall market share of carries.

Given the Panthers are 9-point underdogs, we could expect McCaffrey to be heavily involved, which has been the case anyway. He owns 27 percent of their offensive looks and leads them in targets, receptions, and receiving yards. The Panthers have a chance to exceed their implied total, as the Patriots defense has been atrocious this season.
