Stacking is one of the most efficient ways to separate yourself from the field in FanDrill tournaments.
When an offense has a big day, your team benefits. When a quarterback throws for 300 yards and three touchdowns, there’s a large chance at least one of his pass catchers is putting up tournament-winning numbers right alongside him.
That’s why stacks matter: we are looking to build lineups with the highest ceiling to help you win a tournament.
This week, we are identifying the highest-upside game environments on the Week 2 slate and the best stacks to pair with those matchups.

#1 Jordan Love (QB – GB) &
Christian Watson (WR – GB)
Value Pick: Matthew Golden (WR – GB)
The Packers are coming off an ugly Week 1 loss to the Minnesota Vikings where they allowed 22 fourth-quarter points. However, Green Bay still had 419 total yards of offense, and Jordan Love got the ball to his weapons. Christian Watson finished the game with 6 receptions, 147 yards, and 2 touchdowns, while Matthew Golden had 6 receptions for 95 yards.
Against a porous New York Jets defense that may have looked good in Week 1 against the lowly Tennessee Titans, this stack could have an amazing day.
Last season, the Jets defense did not record a single interception, the only team to do so in NFL history. Not only that, according to Next Gen Stats, they were last in the NFL in EPA per pass (+0.19). The Packers’ stack should be able to take advantage of a defense that did not improve much in the offseason.
Some fantasy football players may be wary of Jordan Love, given his costly turnovers in Week 1, but it is hard to win a game when you are pressured on 54.3% of your dropbacks and have PFF’s lowest-graded pass-blocking offensive line.
In a SuperFlex format, Jordan Love is perfect as your QB2, Christian Watson is a great flex play, or, if you want to wait and bolster other spots on your roster, grab Matthew Golden late.
#2 Baker Mayfield (QB – TB) &
Emeka Egbuka (WR – TB)
Value Pick: Chris Godwin (WR – TB)
The Cleveland Browns defense just allowed 34 points and the highest EPA per pass (+0.76) to the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 1, and this Tampa Bay Buccaneers offense should be able to take advantage of it in the same fashion.
Emeka Egbuka has a completely new role with Robinson taking over the offensive coordinator job in 2026. He was put in motion on 12 routes, the second-highest in the NFL last week. He logged 10 routes in the slot, where he caught both targets for 23 yards.
Last week, the Browns allowed two catches for 62 yards and 2 touchdowns to slot receivers in that blowout loss, leading me to believe that Emeka is going to get targeted heavily in his slot-aligned routes. Robinson will likely continue putting him in a “cheat motion” so he can get a free release off the line and find empty space downfield.
Baker Mayfield should have an easy time finding Egbuka and Godwin all game long. Even if his performance against the Cincinnati Bengals was worrisome, he is still a great QB2 play in your drafts this week.
Take advantage of these “mediocre” offenses against horrible defenses. You don’t have to spend a premium pick to get any of these guys, but they could have huge boom weeks.

#3 Bring-Back Stack
Jayden Daniels (QB – WAS) & Antonio Williams (WR – WAS)
Dak Prescott (QB – DAL) & George Pickens (WR – DAL)
I’m partly a sicko for the Antonio Williams pick, but I believe it to be true. On just 10 routes, Williams caught all four of his targets for 64 yards and a score, quickly becoming one of Jayden Daniels’ favorite targets.
Dyami Brown had more than double the routes (22) than Williams, and the coaching staff had to have seen what we saw from our couch: the talent is undeniable. I would have to assume he sees a higher route share in Week 2 than he did in his NFL debut, which in turn would lead to more production.
If that efficiency stays, he’s in for a massive week. What is the worst-case scenario? You draft him late and he doesn’t start. It’s a no-risk, high-reward play.
As for Jayden Daniels, he looked good in the first game of his third season. He is going against a Cowboys defense that let Jaxson Dart rush for 54 yards and throw three touchdown passes. He is a staple play this week.
Moving onto Dallas, their offense did not look good on Sunday Night and the Commanders defense did improve, but the secondary is still not great.
Dak Prescott historically has torched Washington, throwing 32 touchdowns and 5 interceptions in 15 career games. I think this is a huge bounce-back week for the Cowboys, and it may be a must-win game.
Having already lost a divisional game against the New York Giants, this puts them in a tough spot if they start 0-2 in their NFC East matchups. Dak should come out and be able to find explosive plays downfield to either receiver, but I think Pickens will have the bigger day due to his deep-ball ability.
George Pickens had 2 uncharacteristic drops in Week 1, one of which would have resulted in at least a 30-yard gain deep down the right sideline. It is not unreasonable to think that he will not drop two passes to almost match his entire 2025 total of 5 drops, and he will get meaningful targets deep downfield and in the red zone.
I think Pickens could have a monster game against the Commanders’ weak secondary, specifically Mike Sainristil.
In a SuperFlex tournament, having two quarterbacks with massive upside is key, and while you will have to pay a premium pick for Jayden Daniels and Dak Prescott, the matchup is there for it to pay off for both quarterbacks.
