Welcome to the NFL Week 16 DFS Example Lineups for the Sunday main slate. If you're already reading this, it means you've already gone through all the NFL DFS content Fantasy Alarm has to offer and you've built a few lineups. If not, go back to the NFL DFS Playbook first and then hit all of the DFS coaching pieces as well. Then build yourself a few potentially winning DFS lineups and use what I have here as a sounding board for feedback. 

 

Just a few notes here about the lineups below...

The cash lineups were built solely off the players I put in the Playbook. These are the guys who, unless I have indicated otherwise, offer up the higher floor and will help you cash in your Double-Ups and 50/50s. For GPP tournaments, particularly the large-field ones, you need to find alternative routes to the cash line. I will utilize players from the Playbook and the DFS Dart Board to fill in the gaps, but what I am looking for are some lower-owned stacks that make sense based on expected game flow and other news. You may also see in the GPP lineups, there may be some names I haven't discussed this week on the site, but have talked about during the week on the Fantasy Alarm Show or even on the Fantasy Alarm Sunday Gameday Show on SiriusXM Fantasy Sports Radio. You will also notice, though, that others on the site have mentioned some of these players in places such as the position coaches, so it's not like we're trying to hide anything from you. The only time, and I mean the only time you will see a player in a GPP lineup who hasn't been discussed is if we are using a stack and need a player from the other team coming back. But it's rare when that happens.

Again, these lineups are meant to serve as examples for you; a sounding board, as I said. They are not meant for you to plug in as your own. That's the lazy way and we don't condone it. We are trying to teach you how to be a better DFS player; we aren't lineup-sellers. You should be creating your own lineups using all the information we provide you throughout the week and then coming here to see if there is anything you may have missed or simply for an alternative perspective.

**Be sure to check the Playbook and Dart Board for late changes

Best of luck to you this week and let's make some money!

SUNDAY MORNING NOTES:

According to Adam Schefter:

WEATHER REPORT:

As of now there doesn't look to be too much going on weather wise. Some light wind in the Dallas Cowboys vs Miami Dolphins game. There's a chance for a shower during the Arizona Cardinals vs Chicago Bears game but again, not something that we should be too worried about.

GPP STACKS:

As a reminder, when you're stacking in GPP, you always want to run someone back from the opposing team. One-sided games often turn to a running back seeing higher-than-usual volume or the back-ups start to play. For a stack to really pop, the other team needs to keep things competitive. 

Chalk Stacks (Expect High Ownership): 

*Chicago Bears: Justin Fields, DJ Moore, Cole Kmet (Trey McBride or Michael Wilson coming back)

*Minnesota Vikings: Nick Mullens, Justin Jefferson, T.J. Hockenson (Amon-Ra St. Brown coming back)

Seattle Seahawks: Geno Smith, DK Metcalf, Tyler Lockett (DeAndre Hopkins coming back)

*Jacksonville Jaguars: Trevor Lawrence, Calvin Ridley, Evan Engram or Parker Washington (Mike Evans, Chris Godwin or Rachaad White coming back)

Possible Lower-Owned Stacks:

Miami Dolphins: Tua Tagovailoa, Jaylen Waddle, Raheem Mostert (Ceedee Lamb or Jake Ferguson coming back)

Dallas Cowboys: Dak Prescott, Ceedee Lamb, Jake Ferguson, Brandin Cooks (Jaylen Waddle or Raheem Mostert coming back)

*Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Baker Mayfield, Mike Evans Rachaad White or Chris Godwin (Calvin Ridley or Parker Washington coming back)

*Detroit Lions: Jared Goff, Amon-Ra St. Brown, Sam LaPorta (Justin Jefferson comnig back)

Cleveland Browns: Joe Flacco, Amari Cooper, David Njoku (Noah Brown or Nico Collins coming back)
