At RT Sports, there is an amazing fantasy pick’em game where you can choose different props for a chance to win money! Pick at least two props, select “more” or “less” on each prop, submit the picks, and you’re good to go! Below, you will find my favorite props/picks for Sunday’s NFL slate. You can choose just two props or choose them all and make it into one big parlay!
Mooney has seen 15 targets over the past two games, catching 11 of them for 154 yards. That type of volume in the passing game should get him 4 catches or more most weeks, and this weekend, he faces a Saints defense that is 25th in the NFL against the pass. The fact that Cousins trusts him enough to target him as often as he has been makes me feel optimistic.
He has very little competition for carries in the backfield and has topped this number in each of the past two weeks. In fact, last week, with Andy Dalton at QB and the Panthers offense actually playing well, Hubbard nearly doubled this number with 114 rushing yards. This week, he faces a Bengals team that ranks 26th in the NFL, allowing 142.3 yards per game.
Over the past two weeks, the Vikings have played two Super Bowl favorites, the 49ers and the Texans. Aaron Jones caught 5 passes in each of those games and was the second option in the Vikings offense after Justin Jefferson. This week, the Vikings play another Super Bowl favorite, the Packers, in Green Bay. To add to the drama, Aaron Jones played his entire career with the Packers until this season. You know he wants to beat his old team, so expect him to have another big game through the air and on the ground.
With Tank Dell out, both Diggs and Collins are going to see a heavy dose of targets this week. Diggs needs fewer receptions to win his prop, so I went with him, but realistically, both he and Collins should go over their projected total. Not only do they face a Jags defense that ranks 30th in the NFL in passing yards allowed, but the Jags also play a ton of man coverage, and Diggs eats that for breakfast, lunch, and dinner!
There are a couple of main reasons why I love this prop to go over. Firstly, Muth has at least four catches in every game so far this season, and those games came against 3 solid defenses in the Falcons, Broncos, and Chargers. Secondaly, this week, he gets to face the Colts, a defense that hasn’t been good, especially not against the TE. The Colts allowed Bears TE Cole Kmet to make 10 catches last week, which sets up Muth to have a monster day.
