The draft season is here, so it’s time to look at the top 2022 fantasy football stacks by ranking all 32 teams in 2022. Stacking, or pairing multiple players from one NFL team, has become all the rage in fantasy football. Especially in best-ball leagues.
It’s not a strategy without risk, but loading up on the top offensive teams can lead to high-scoring rosters. But not all teams should necessarily be stacked and many have non-traditional QB/WR1 pairings.
For those looking to stack teams this season, here are the rankings for all NFL teams. I’ve included each quarterback with their top-3 fantasy options per FFWC high-stakes advanced ADP. I also included a contingency, late-round pick from each squad, as some stacks will be extremely hard to accomplish in standard 12-team drafts.
Elite Fantasy Football Stacks
Los Angeles Chargers
QB | ADP | PLAYER 1 | ADP | PLAYER 2 | ADP | PLAYER 3 | ADP | CONTINGENCY PICK | ADP |
Justin Herbert | 62.2 | Austin Ekeler (RB) | 5.8 | Keenan Allen (WR) | 23.8 | Mike Williams (WR) | 33 | Josh Palmer (WR) | 139.6 |
The Chargers are loaded with phenomenal young talent, so much so that it would be difficult to build a QB-RB-WR stack, but not impossible. Austin Ekeler would have to be nabbed in Round One, while Keenan Allen is usually selected late in the 2nd. If you miss out on Allen, Mike Williams is a good consolation prize. In FFWC high-stakes drafts, Justin Herbert is currently QB2, so be prepared to take him early. WR3 Josh Palmer could be a sleeper to top 60 grabs and Gerald Everett is poised to be a late-round gem.
Cincinnati Bengals
QB | ADP | PLAYER 1 | ADP | PLAYER 2 | ADP | PLAYER 3 | ADP | CONTINGENCY PICK | ADP |
Joe Burrow | 104.3 | Ja’Marr Chase (WR) | 5.5 | Joe Mixon (RB) | 14 | Tee Higgins (WR) | 23.5 | Tyler Boyd (WR) | 104.9 |
No issues ranking the Bengals ahead of the Chargers. Both rosters are loaded with elite young playmakers. Only a lucky break or two with a late draft slot would allow fantasy managers to start Ja’Marr Chase and Joe Mixon. More likely, a Mixon/Tee Higgins stack would be more feasible. Tyler Boyd might be the top WR3 in the league. Another name to remember is TE Hayden Hurst, who was a top-10 fantasy starter in 2020.
Buffalo Bills
QB | ADP | PLAYER 1 | ADP | PLAYER 2 | ADP | PLAYER 3 | ADP | CONTINGENCY PICK | ADP |
Josh Allen | 40.2 | Stefon Diggs (WR) | 11.2 | Gabriel Davis (WR) | 53.2 | Devin Singletary (RB) | 84.4 | James Cook (RB) | 96.3 |
A Josh Allen/Stefon Diggs stack is going to win plenty of leagues in 2022. Of course, building it means committing an early draft pick on Allen and potentially bypassing running backs. Interestingly, Buffalo themselves have an excellent dead-zone RB sleeper in Devin Singletary. It won’t be easy to secure both Buffalo backs but an Allen/Diggs/Singletary stack would be money. Gabriel Davis also works as the WR2 if you miss out on Diggs, and slot man Jamison Crowder is a significant upgrade over Cole Beasley. Also, the Bills enter this season as the Super Bowl favorites and have a roster loaded with fantasy football stacking potential. Load up early and often.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers
QB | ADP | PLAYER 1 | ADP | PLAYER 2 | ADP | PLAYER 3 | ADP | CONTINGENCY PICK | ADP |
Tom Brady | 109.6 | Mike Evans (WR) | 15.3 | Leonard Fournette (RB) | 19.9 | Russell Gage (WR) | 62.5 | Chris Godwin (WR) | 63.7 |
Even with Chris Godwin looking very iffy, the Bucs still offer No. 1 overall upside. Tampa ran the third-most snaps per game in 2021 and should be fine with Byron Leftwich calling plays. Tom Brady to Mike Evans has resulted in 27 combined TDs since 2020. If Godwin misses time, as expected, that duo should once again be among the league leaders. Leonard Fournette was a league-winner last season but was allowed to test free agency and reportedly adhered to the Eddie Lacy offseason conditioning plan. That and the presence of Rachaad White makes Fournette somewhat risky. Tampa signed Russell Gage to a 3-year, $30 million deal for a reason. Gage is going to be heavily involved and makes for a terrific stack with Brady for fantasy managers who miss out on Evans. Keep an eye on the starting tight end battle in camp. Tight Ends Kyle Rudolph, Cameron Brate, and rookie Cade Otton offer a ton of late-round upside.
Los Angeles Rams
QB | ADP | PLAYER 1 | ADP | PLAYER 2 | ADP | PLAYER 3 | ADP | CONTINGENCY PICK | ADP |
Matthew Stafford | 128.5 | Cooper Kupp (WR) | 3.5 | Cam Akers (RB) | 40.6 | Allen Robinson (WR) | 45.2 | Tyler Higbee (TE) | 177.1 |
The defending champions have the potential to be better in 2022 after signing Allen Robinson. Anyone who paired Matthew Stafford with Cooper Kupp last season knows the benefits of loading up on Sean McVay-led squads. Robinson’s ADP has slowly crept up but he’ll be a popular stack with Stafford. I have expressed my reservations about Cam Akers and remain convinced McVay is going to use more of a committee backfield than he showed in the postseason. Moreover, LA had the league’s top pass-blocking line last season per PFF and is among the early favorites. With the and mostly back together, the Rams remain a good team to invest in.

Here are some players that have the potential to break out in 2022.
Tua Tagovailoa (QB) Miami Dolphins
This one is a no-brainer. The Dolphins drastically improved their offensive line this offseason, most notably adding elite tackle Terron Armstead and guard Connor Williams. If the line gels, it will make all the difference in the world after being the worst line in the NFL last season. On top of that, they also added Tyreek Hill and Cedrick Wilson at wide receiver. With elite weapons like Hill, Jaylen Waddle, Mike Gesicki, and an improved line a monumental improvement from Tua seems inevitable. Perhaps more important than all of that is Mike McDaniels implanting his system that looked so great in San Francisco.
Trevor Lawrence (QB) Jacksonville Jaguars
Despite a miserable rookie season, I still believe in Lawrence’s talent. I like him enough to put him on this list over the likes of Trey Lance and Justin Fields. While I don’t love anything the Jags did this offseason in terms of it bringing any sort of long-term success to the organization in real life, the situation has improved for Lawrence’s fantasy outlook. The team invested in the offense haphazardly, but still improved the line while adding weapons like Christian Kirk and Evan Engram. While those aren’t world-beaters, it’s better than what he was working with last season. The addition of the next guy on this list may be the biggest benefit of them all though.

There is no set definition for what a ‘sleeper’ is but when you see one, you know it. As a general rule, a sleeper is defined as a late-round or unheralded player that outperforms their ADP. Training camps and preseason might not have started but fantasy football draft fervor certainly has. And with it, there is plenty of interest in finding out the 2022 fantasy football deep sleepers to target.
Here are some of those players currently being targeted in double-digit rounds who look like solid deep sleepers to prioritize in the latter rounds.
Tua Tagovailoa (QB) Miami Dolphins
With Tua, we are still trying to figure out if he’s the issue in Miami or if subpar weapons and the worst offensive line in football are the issues. Many advanced stats seem to point to the latter with the offensive line being the biggest culprit , Tua has been an above-average quarterback in the rare instance he’s had a clean pocket to throw from. His lack of deep attempts can also be equated to the terrible line and a system that forces him to throw quick passes to negate the onslaught of pressure.
This offseason the Dolphins have addressed these issues by adding an elite wideout in Tyreek Hill and one of the best tackles in the game in Terron Armstead among other offensive line additions. We know Hill is going to be elite, however, we still have to see the offensive line gel. But on paper, they should be much improved.
The combination of Hill and Jaylen Waddle should be deadly for an accurate quarterback like Tua. In a Mike McDaniel system, they should get the ball in space often and do most of the heavy lifting for Tua. Many people seem to ignore that Hill, even with Mahomes, received the bulk of his yards last season from screens, crosses, and dump-offs. Even moreso than his new teammate Jaylen Waddle. I would go as far as to say that I anticipate Cedrick Wilson and Mike Gesicki to average more air yards this season and be utilized as the primary deep threats. Wilson on the outside and Gesicki down the seam.
If McDaniel is what we believe he will be coming from San Francisco, the offensive system should be much improved. That alone should improve the offensive line and rushing attack. Which in turn should make Tua’s life much easier and open things up for him. We will see this year who he really is and my bet is he’s a better player than we’ve seen so far in Miami.

One step outside tells you the summer is here. Along with the rising temperatures, the NFL rumor mill is heating up. Before we know it, the preseason will begin. But before it does, we need to know what NFC training […]
Not every NFC squad has a battle that is noteworthy, but every team does have something fantasy-relevant that football fans should monitor.
In addition to our committee backfield article, here are battles for all 16 NFC teams that fantasy enthusiasts should keep an eye on this summer. Also, check out our AFC Training Camp Battles to Watch.
Arizona Cardinals – The looming six-game suspension for WR DeAndre Hopkins will lead to a big void in targets. If Rondale Moore moves inside full-time, as expected, he should have a huge role. Christian Kirk’s big 2021 showing came via the sixth-highest slot rate in this league. RB James Conner also has a rather checkered injury history, so if Darrel Williams wins the club’s RB2 job, he has significant value if Conner misses games again.
Atlanta Falcons – Atlanta arguably has the league’s thinnest roster. That lack of depth and talent certainly extends to the receiving corps. The Falcons’ 193 vacated targets at wide receiver is the fifth-most in football. Drake London and TE Kyle Pitts should be locks for 120-plus looks but the rest of the depth chart is wide open. Also, monitor the backfield. Cordarrelle Patterson will open the season…
