Strategy
Stacks remain important in postseason fantasy football. However, finding the right stack, especially one from a team that makes it to the big dance, can help propel you up the leaderboard at DraftKings Playoff Best Ball.
Focus on your favorites. Focusing on the favorites, or simply your favorites, is a sound strategy, as you would like your roster to have the most games played possible to maximize your chances at DraftKings Playoff Best Ball. In the past, this often meant trying to get a Kansas City Chiefs stack along with your favorite NFC contender.
Don’t forget the top players who may get eliminated early. Because of the draft format, some managers may shy away from top players on teams who are projected to be eliminated early. For this year, this list might include players like Christian McCaffrey, Tetairoa McMillan, Kenneth Gainwell, and DK Metcalf.
Be aware of injured stars who could return in the postseason. One example of this from this year is someone like J.K. Dobbins, who could be ready in time for the AFC Championship Game or the Super Bowl. Someone like Dobbins potentially returning will, in all likelihood, negatively impact RJ Harvey’s volume for Denver.
