Trey McBride has been an NFL DFS standout since the return of Kyler Murray. Michael Pittman Jr. is currently the most popular wide receiver on the board. How do we find ways to build around them while staying different enough to win tournaments in Week 12? Our NFL DFS lineup advice can help.
We understand not everyone looking for NFL DFS lineup advice has the time to watch every show, read every breakdown and input data into optimizers. Perhaps you’re still getting a feel for NFL DFS and aren’t quite ready to give NFL Sims a try.
That’s where our NFL Lineup Generator comes in handy.
In just a few minutes and with the click of a few buttons, sort through lineups and save up to 20 at a time using a tool that processes our projections for you.
We used Lineup Generator to see what players we’d see most often in our builds in Week 12. It’s a tool that has proven to be quite popular with our community, and one that has driven results.
Here’s how we used Lineup Generator in Week 12 and the lineups and exposures that came from it.
NFL DFS Lineup Advice for Week 12 | Lineup GeneratorÂ
It all starts with picking three main options. First, you’ll choose the DFS slate of your choice: DraftKings main, DraftKings Showdown, FanDuel main or FanDuel single game.
Then it’s time to choose your stack setting. You can choose ‘All Stack Types’ to leave options open, or you can get more specific with what you’re looking for by choosing one-man stacks, two-man stacks plus runback options.
Finally, let Lineup Generator know what kind of build you’re going for: All, Chalky, Balanced or Contrarian.
For my build, chose all stack types on the DraftKings main slate, but I’m still looking for contrarian lineups. If playing cash games, chalky and balanced are better options, but I’m envisioning GPP lineups in this example.
With the all stack types, it was tougher to find as many contrarian total builds, but remember, it’s about finding contrarian spots inside of lineups. It’s not about going contrarian at every spot.
Just like last week, we see chalk at the top of our player pool. Here’s a breakdown of our most popular players in our 20 saved lineups.
Pittman Jr. is the highest-owned receiver. McBride is the highest-owned tight end. Jonathan Taylor is the highest-owned running back. Not contrarian, I know.
But this is a good example of using popular players, but finding under-owned options in other spots. JuJu Smith Schuster should see single-digit ownership. We also have 10 percent of Kenny Pickett, well above his projected ownership to give us leverage if the Steelers offense wakes up with a new offensive coordinator.
The Colts aren’t the best team in our Top Stacks Tool, but we’re finding plenty of ways to get to them.
One extremely contrarian lineup that stood out in my builds was this one.
We get to popular players in Isiah Pacheco and Saquon Barkley, but the rest of the lineup is pretty different.
It’s important to note these exposures are based completely off my settings. You can change between lineup builds and save lineups along the way. In total, I had 20 lineups saved in roughly five minutes.
That’s what makes this such a great NFL DFS tool for newer players and players who don’t have time in the morning to get their NFL lineups in before lock.
Not only are you getting Lineup Generator, but any Stokastic package includes access to our Premium Discord where you can interact with both our pros and community at any time.
Good luck with your NFL DFS Lineups in Week 12!
