Tre Tucker (LV) over 36.5 receiving yards (-115)

Odds available at DraftKings Sportsbook at time of publishing.

Tucker has been the biggest beneficiary of all during this Davante Adams drama with the Raiders. Tucker has back-to-back weeks with 6+ targets and he has 41 and 96 yards in those 2 games. Tucker finds himself against Denver who have a bad man in the secondary in Pat Surtain. I’m banking on Surtain covering Jakobi Meyers here as he typically likes to shadow WR1s. WR2s have had a nice run this season against Denver, Lockett, Godwin and Lazard have all done exceptionally well against this Denver secondary. This could be a future star and this could be a price we don’t see again for a while.

Tyler Bass (BUF) over 1.5 field goals made (-130)

Odds available at DraftKings Sportsbook at time of publishing.

It isn’t a week betting on the NFL if we don’t include at least one kicker prop. Bass to make 2+ field goals is a sneaky find in my opinion. Bass has had at least 2 field-goal attempts in all 4 games this year. I think Bass is a good kicker and he got his misses out of the way early this year. This game against Houston is in a dome which certainly helps. Houston has allowed opposing kickers to score at least 2 field goals against them in their last 3 games. This game should feature plenty of points and I trust Josh Allen to get them down the field and into kicking range, while the Texans defense is rigid enough to keep Allen and company out of the end zone. Lets stay hot with the kicking props!
