STACKED’s take
Golden's WR1 upside and $700 discount make him the preferred stack piece in Lions shootout.
Matthew Golden has emerged in his second season after being considered a bust following his rookie campaign. He has finished as a WR1 in three of his six games and a WR2 in another, currently the WR11 in fantasy points per game and ranking sixth at the position in receiving yards. The Packers travel to Detroit to face the Lions, whose defense allows the second-most fantasy points to wide receivers (194.8 receiving yards and one receiving touchdown per game on average). The game features a 53.5 over/under, the highest on the slate, representing shootout potential. The source notes that game-stacking is viable in cash games to get pieces of both offenses into lineups. Golden gets the nod over Christian Watson ($7,400) simply because of the $700 discount, with both receivers offering high-floor, high-ceiling play.
