NFL Week 3 Best Bets: Picking a Player Prop for Every Game

Commanders @ Bengals: Jayden Daniels Over 9.5 Rushing Attempts (-108)
Jayden Daniels is on pace for record-breaking rushing attempts after his first two games. The offense's disarray and a lack of impactful pass-catchers leads to him utilizing his legs, and we see more of that coming on Monday night.
Chargers @ Steelers: Jaylen Warren Over 25.5 Rushing Yards (-113)
After starting the year with a nagging hamstring injury, Jaylen Warren has slowly waned into the Pittsburgh offense via his snap counts. After playing just 21 snaps in Week 1, Warren jumped up to 32 snaps with seven more carries. He looked better overall, and we're going to look to buy in on this lower total before he has a spike week. Expect him to see more of the workload on Sunday.
Bears @ Colts: Michael Pittman Jr. Under 51.5 Receiving Yards (-113)
Michael Pittman has struggled to start the year, and we don't see that coming to an end with Jaylon Johnson defending him this weekend. Anthony Richardson has struggled to build a connection with him to start the year, pointing too many signs at an under in this spot.
Texans @ Vikings: Tank Dell Over 50.5 Receiving Yards (-113)
Tank Dell has been quiet to start the year, but we believe C.J. Stroud is going to emphasize getting the ball. He has been focusing mostly on Nico Collins, but Dell has too much talent and chemistry with Stroud to miss out on a big game eventually. We'll buy low here.
Giants @ Browns: Malik Nabers Over 67.5 Receiving Yards (-113)
We are going to hammer this until it's gone. Malik Nabers has been the lone silver lining for the Giants to start the year, immediately establishing himself as the alpha in the receiver room and being a constant outlet for Daniel Jones. Back him to stay hot on Sunday.
Eagles @ Saints: Chris Olave Over Over 61.5 Receiving Yards (-113)
We want a piece of this New Orleans offense after its explosive start to the year, and why not go with the WR1? Chris Olave quietly had a solid game against the Cowboys, falling just short of a touchdown but still ending up with 81 receiving yards. Back him to go over this lower total for his talents.
Broncos @ Buccaneers: Devaughn Vele Over 17.5 Receiving Yards (-113)
Devaughn Vele is back and healthy after missing last week, and we liked what we saw out of him in Week 1. With eight receptions on eight targets, he looked like Bo Nix's dump-off guy, which he could be doing a lot of in Week 3 against this Bucs defense. Back him here at a low number.
Packers @ Titans: Tony Pollard Over 65.5 Rushing Yards (-113)
With Tyjae Spears banged up, Tony Pollard has been getting the majority of the workload despite the Titans saying that it'd be a 50/50 timeshare. We're going to bank on that trend continuing into Week 3, as Pollard has simply looked like the better back.
Panthers @ Raiders: Brock Bowers Over 47.5 Receiving Yards (-113)
The Brock Bowers breakout may already be upon us, as many are saying his ceiling could be as high as TE2 in fantasy this season. Still shy of 50 on his receiving yards total, we're willing to get in on Bowers as he continues to prove he's already a premier pass-catcher in this offense.
Dolphins @ Seahawks: De'Von Achane Over 106.5 Rushing + Receiving Yards (-114)
As if De'Von Achane wasn't already a focal point of the Dolphins offense before, he'll now become the focal point for the team with the injury to Tua Tagovailoa. Raheem Mostert is out yet again, which leaves more of the workload on the second-year stud to get over this number.
Lions @ Cardinals: Trey McBride Over 53.5 Receiving Yards (-113)
While it's been a bit of a slow start to the season for Trey McBride, his target share and routes remain elite for tight ends. He is an integral part of the offense, and it's only a matter of time until things start clicking with Kyler Murray. We'll buy low on him here in a shootout.
Ravens @ Cowboys: Jalen Tolbert Over 29.5 Yards (-114)
Jalen Tolbert and Dak Prescott were reportedly working out together in the offseason, and it showed in a big way last week. He hauled in six receptions for 82 yards in last week's loss to the Saints, crushing this total and displaying that chemistry. We'll get behind him to beat that number once again in Week 3.
49ers @ Rams: Jordan Whittington Over 34.5 Receiving Yards (-113)
Somebody has to catch passes for the Rams this week! The injuries to Cooper Kupp and Puka Nacua has cleared things up on the depth chart for rookie Jordan Whittington to get some playing time, and we're a big fan of the production he showed in the preseason.
Chiefs @ Falcons: Travis Kelce Under 47.5 Receiving Yards (-113)
If it ain't broke, don't fix it. Travis Kelce is off to a putrid start to the season and has been a regular fade for us in Chiefs games. We will continue to do the same here until he proves that he can put up a productive game in 2024.
Jaguars @ Bills: Trevor Lawrence Under 226.5 Passing Yards (-113)
The Jaguars simply look broken, and Trevor Lawrence has regressed since his sophomore season. There is little to be excited about with the way they are playing and we just don't see how the current Jacksonville offense can produce this many passing yards.
Commanders @ Bengals: Jayden Daniels Over 9.5 Rushing Attempts (-108)
Jayden Daniels is on pace for record-breaking rushing attempts after his first two games. The offense's disarray and a lack of impactful pass-catchers leads to him utilizing his legs, and we see more of that coming on Monday night.
Chargers @ Steelers: Jaylen Warren Over 25.5 Rushing Yards (-113)
After starting the year with a nagging hamstring injury, Jaylen Warren has slowly waned into the Pittsburgh offense via his snap counts. After playing just 21 snaps in Week 1, Warren jumped up to 32 snaps with seven more carries. He looked better overall, and we're going to look to buy in on this lower total before he has a spike week. Expect him to see more of the workload on Sunday.
