Fantasy football picks: Week 5 FanDuel GPP breakdown

New England – This is my favorite GPP stack of the week. We have discussed several players from the Patriots, and they are all coming in at low ownership against one of the worst teams in the league. It is a very rare occasion that we get the chance to exploit this type of match-up. The talent of this offense will be too much for Washington to handle, and I highly recommend this stack.

Tom Brady, James White, Julian Edelman

Atlanta Falcons – In a game that could be high scoring, Atlanta is a sneaky pivot off of the much more popular Texans. While they are great for cash games, in GPP’s, Atlanta has some great upside. They are usually one of the lower owned stacks each week and have the talent to rack up some big fantasy points. We should have an interest in a game stack with this one, considering the ownership on Houston, we can get some great exposure to both sides.

Matt Ryan, Calvin Ridley, DeAndre Hopkins, Austin Hooper

Baltimore Ravens – We all know Lamar Jackson will have his fair share of ownership and for good reason. That does not mean we have to fade him in tourneys if we can pair him with some lower owned plays to break up that ownership. Pittsburgh looked much better recently, but they tend to struggle against the Ravens.

Lamar Jackson, Mark Ingram, Marquise Brown (Mark Andrews for a chalkier stack)
