BEST NFL DIVISIONAL ROUND ANYTIME TD BETS: PACKERS vs. 49ERS
DEEBO SAMUEL ANYTIME TD SCORER (+105) Click here to see which sportsbook has the best odds
Arguably the most important piece in San Francisco's West Coast offense, wideout Deebo Samuel is available to wager at +105 odds for an anytime touchdown scorer. Samuel's versatility as a receiver and ball carrier makes him a tough assignment for any defense, especially against the Packers, who tend to struggle against the run.
Whether Samuel pops an explosive reception for a touchdown, or is used as a ball carrier in the red zone, he should easily find the end zone to cash us at +105 odds for an anytime touchdown. If you're feeling brave, Samuel is also +800 to be the first touchdown scorer of the game, which he's recorded in several regular season games this year. With five rushing touchdowns and seven receiving touchdowns, including six across the final six games of the regular season, Samuel should be a multi-unit wager for an anytime touchdown at +105 odds at FanDuel Sportsbook.
AARON JONES ANYTIME TD SCORER (+125) Click here to see which sportsbook has the best odds
The matchup for Aaron Jones will be much harder than the soft Dallas run defense he faced in the Wild Card round. However, Green Bay's pass-centric offense, led by Jordan Love, should be able to move the football relatively well against a banged-up 49ers secondary that has struggled in spots to defend the pass all season.
Jones has been handling a ton of volume since returning from a multi-week absence due to a hamstring injury. The Packers' RB1 scored three rushing touchdowns against the Cowboys last week, handling 20-plus carries in four consecutive games since Week 16, so as long as Green Bay finds itself near the red zone, Jones' +125 anytime touchdown scorer odds are a one-unit lock.
JAYDEN REED ANYTIME TD SCORER (+210) Click here to see which sportsbook has the best odds
Personally, I lost a sizable chunk of bankroll on Jayden Reed props against Dallas. The foolish thing to do would be fade the Packers' rookie wideout, who has a strong rapport with Love. He's dealing with a lingering chest injury, failing to haul in any of the three targets he saw against the Cowboys, but his versatility within the Packers' offensive scheme makes Reed an asset in the anytime touchdown scorer market.
Reed has scored at least one touchdown in five of his last six road games, with the only exception occurring last week in the Wild Card round, where the Packers built an early lead and churned out carries to melt the clock. Expect a much more back and forth contest against the 49ers, who specialize in stopping the run, meaning Reed's +210 anytime touchdown odds will get plenty of burn against a vulnerable secondary on Saturday night.
CHRISTIAN MCCAFFREY FIRST TD SCORER (+280) Click here to see which sportsbook has the best odds
Christian McCaffrey is set up to have a monster game against a Green Bay run defense that struggled all season. It was masked last week since the Packers built a 27-0 lead in the first half, but CMC should feast early and often in Kyle Shanahan's West Coast zone-run blocking scheme.
McCaffrey has ridiculously juiced odds for an anytime touchdown at -350 odds, which is why we're recommending his first touchdown scorer odds at +280 instead. McCaffrey has scored the first touchdown in four games this season, which is encouraging for bettors investing in his first touchdown odds. Green Bay's run defense still gave up 123 rushing yards to Dallas during the Wild Card round, including a Tony Pollard rushing touchdown.
It's obviously riskier than an anytime touchdown, but since McCaffrey has pulled this feat off multiple times already this season, expect Shanahan to feed his RB1 early and often on the opening drive against a soft Packers run defense. +280 is short for a first touchdown prop, but it's five times more valuable than McCaffrey's anytime touchdown odds at at -350, so let's wager half a unit on this to cash early in the NFC Divisional Round contest on Saturday night.
DONTAYVION WICKS ANYTIME TD SCORER (+330) Click here to see which sportsbook has the best odds
Drafted in the fifth round out of Virginia, rookie wideout Dontayvion Wicks has been a scoring machine lately. Wicks scored on just two targets in the Wild Card round, while hauling in three touchdowns in the final two weeks of the regular season against Chicago and Carolina, whose pass defenses aren't much worse than San Francisco's.
Wicks has to compete for touches in a crowded, healthier wide receiving corps, but assuming the Packers fall into a negative game script on Saturday night, Love should be slinging passes at a much higher volume than was required a week ago. Wicks saw seven targets and caught six receptions agains Tampa Bay and Chicago in the late stages of the regular season, so there's certainly going to be opportunities for him to continue being a red zone threat for Green Bay on Saturday night.
At +330 odds, we're getting insane value on Wicks' anytime touchdown scorer prop, so let's stake a unit on the rookie wideout to continue his hot streak in a favorable matchup against the 49ers pass defense.
