NFL Week 3 Player Prop Ladder Bets: Irv Smith, Garrett Wilson, and Greg Dortch
In my opinion, the best place to bet the NFL is FanDuel right now because they have the ladder moves. It's legitimately the greatest experience a human being can have doing anything. I checked. Being able to get plus money on every bet you make is basically the key to life. Sure you have to go up a little in number but that shouldn't be a big deal. I never bet a guy to go over anything unless I think he's going way over. That's just how I roll. Nobody does. That's a scientific fact. I think the smartest thing we can do is go through every game and grab the best ladder move available on Sunday morning. There's nothing dumb about this.
NFL Player Prop Week 3 Bets
Irv Smith Jr. 40+ Receiving Yards (+172) (Bet $100 to win $172)
The only thing I don't like about this kid is the fact that he wears number 84. Is that really his fault though? Who the hell wouldn't want to wear 84? Blame the Vikings for letting him. The only thing I know for sure is this kid shouldn't be +172 to get 40 receiving yards today. That's insane. He has seemed to regain a hold on the TE1 job in Minnesota and it netted him eight targets in only 56% of the snaps last week. Sure he didn't get to 40 receiving yards but that was fluky. I think he gets home in a baby shootout today.
Garrett Wilson 70+ Receiving Yards (+220) (Bet $100 to win $220)
I just want to have money on this kid. The idea that he only needs to get 70+ for us to get a +220 payout is crazy. The kid was targeted 12 times last week and appears to be the real deal. Now he gets to see a Cincinnati Bengals team that looks good on paper against the wide receiver position but they've only seen Mitch Trubisky and Cooper Rush so far this season. We're talking Joe Flacco today. I think the Jets chase points all afternoon and we see Wilson benefit from that type of game script.
Greg Dortch 50+ Receiving Yards (+178) (Bet $100 to win $178)
I like this kid's receptions but at 50+ yards I'll take a swing. Especially at this price. Getting +178 for this feels borderline criminal. Like I feel like we're taking advantage of the books here. Only two teams in the NFL have given up more receiving yards to the wide receiver position so far this season. Two of those teams have played three games. The Rams have only played two. I would expect the Cardinals to play from behind in this one but even if they don't, Dortch should get home on 50+. I think he'll do it in the first half.
