Trevor Sikkema
WR DK Metcalf, Pittsburgh Steelers: Less than 55.5 received yards (-114 Fanduel)
Metcalf did not make this brand in four of its last five games in 2024, despite playing with a well-known Quarterback in Geno Smith, whose Deep-Ball mentality corresponds to the vertical, Jump-Ball skills of Metcalf.
Now in Pittsburgh he will fit from Aaron Rodgers, who last season earned a solid 92.6 degree on throws from 20-plus Yards (14th in the NFL). The greater care: Metcalf is expected to bring about the past three seasons in many sauce Gardner, the top -grade corner of the competition in a single coverage (90.5).
Dalton Wasserman
RB Najee Harris, Los Angeles Chargers: Under 24.5 Rushing Yards (-111 Draftkings)
Harris was only completely cleared for contact on Monday after missing the entire training camp and the preseason with an eye injury, so that he only had four days to prepare for the opener of Friday against Kansas City in Brazil. With the first round Pick Omarion Hampton now in the mix, Harris is probably faced with a split Achterveld and There is a real possibility that he only sees a handful of wearing.
The matchup doesn’t help either. In two games against the Chiefs last season, chargers that run back, amounted to less than 3.2 yards per Carry and failed to break a single run for more than 12 yards. The loss of left -wing Tackle Rashawn Slater only makes things further, and if Los Angeles lags out early, the Run game could become a side issue.

Wr Juju Smith-Schuster, Chiefs of Kansas City: More than 2.5 receptions (+135, fanatics)
Chief Head Coach Andy Reid selected Juju Smith-Schuster when he was asked about replacing the production of Rashee Rice during his suspension: “He feels very good and we have a lot of confidence in him. But above all Patrick has a lot of confidence in him. So yes, no, he can certainly play that role.”
Kansas City placed the second highest transit percentage of the neutral place in 2024-behind only Cincinnati that forms the scene for a high-volume passing game in a tight matchup against the Chargers (KC -3). Suspended with rice, Rookie Jalen Royals stored and Hollywood Brown, who shrews back from an absence of the preseason, Smith-Schuster is well positioned to achieve extra goals. His three-plus reception line on +135 and alternative reception propples are worth considering.
Mason Cameron
RB Javonte Williams, Dallas Cowboys: Under 34.5 Rushing Yards (-108 Draftkings)
With Jaydon Blue waiting in the wings and limited cohesion along the attacking line during the preseason, there are numerous questions about Williams and the ground game of the Cowboys. Neither Tyler Guyton nor Tyler Smith played a preseason -snap due to injuries, and now Dallas opens against an Eagles defense that finished second in Run Defense Grade last season -not the ideal setup for establishing rhythm on the ground.
Max Chadwick
RB Travis Etienne Jr., Jacksonville Jaguars: Under 40.5 Rushing Yards (-112 Draftkings)
Travis Etienne was on average only 32.7 hasty yards per game during his last 10 games in 2024, and the Achterveld of Jacksonville looks even more pressure that arrive this season. Tank Bigsby passed the play last year, and Rookies Bhaysshul Tuten and Lequint are all expected to take into account. The Jaguars are also arranged in the bottom 10 in Runblocking figure for six consecutive seasons. While Carolina carried out the worst run defense quality of the competition in 2024 (37.4), the return of star defensive Tackle Derrick Brown should lead to a much competitive front in 2025.
Gordon McGuinness
QB Roof Prescott, Dallas Cowboys: More than 1.5 passing TDS (+115 Fanatics)
The Eagles are favored by more than a touchdown after the Cowboys Star Edge -defender Micah Parsons had taken away, which suggests that Dallas could play from behind -and give Dak Prescott more options for collecting fitting attempts and touchdown -chances. Philadelphia also rolls out two new starters in the secondary: Cornerback Kelee Ringo and Safety Sydney Brown. Neither of them has registered a pff -cover quality above 70.0 in a season, with potential vulnerabilities for Prescott to exploit.
