SourcePick Ideas
Packers plus the points, if the number reaches +2.5
Consider Green Bay at +2.5 or better; Matt LaFleur said the Packers wanted to be aggressive, score points and make plays downfield.
Under 52.5 at the top of the market
Consider Under 52.5 or better; pass if the market drops substantially.
Javonte Williams anytime touchdown
Javonte Williams is a plausible anytime-TD look; compare his price with other touchdown markets and avoid a heavily juiced line.
