Happy Saturday, RotoBallers! Welcome to our Underdog Fantasy NFL DFS prop picks for the early games on Sunday, October 22, 2023. Welcome to our brand new NFL DFS series covering Underdog Fantasy contests! We will continue to focus on the NFL DFS props offered on Underdog called Higher/Lower (Over/Under).
Higher/Lower is traditional over/under DFS prop picks -- whether you think a player will score Over or Under the set lines, and choosing your amount. You can parlay multiple picks together to vastly increase the juice (e.g., three picks = 6x your bet). Underdog Fantasy offers some of the industry's best and easiest-to-win NFL DFS games. At Underdog Fantasy, you're not playing against other people -- you're just playing against the projections.
Announcement: We have two awesome new Props Optimizers for the MLB, NBA, NFL, NHL, and NCAA! The PrizePicks Optimizer and Prop Bets Optimizer are both available in our new Props Premium Package, which includes exclusive access to RotoBaller's VIP Discord chat rooms for props and betting.

Brian Hoyer, 220.5 Passing Yards (LOWER)
Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Brian Hoyer faces the Chicago Bears at Soldier Field on Sunday. With Hoyer filling in for the injured Jimmy Garoppolo, the Raiders game plan could be to run the offense through Josh Jacobs. The Raiders are nearly three-point road favorites for the game in Chicago. The Bears will be without their starting quarterback Justin Fields, and will likely be trailing for most of the game. Hoyer may not throw enough to accumulate 221 passing yards.
Jakobi Meyers, 48.5 Receiving Yards (LOWER)
Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Jakobi Meyers faces the Chicago Bears on Sunday. The Bears are middle of the pack in receiving yards and fantasy points given up to wide receivers this season since teams don't have to pass much against them. The Bears can be attacked through the air and on the ground, but teams prefer the latter to drain the clock. In a game without Jimmy Garoppolo, Meyers could see a decreased target share and target volume. Meyers could struggle to reach 49 yards.
James Cook, 13.5 Rushing Attempts (LOWER)
Buffalo Bills running back James Cook faces the New England Patriots on Sunday. The Patriots can be considered a neutral matchup, but the real issue holding Cook back is his role in the offense. The Bills second year running back has reached 14 attempts in three of six games this season, but the elevated role of Latavius Murray is concerning. Last week against the New York Giants, Murray carried the ball 12 times. The Bills are a passing team, and the volume may not be there for Cook this week.
Lamar Jackson, 0.5 Total Yards (HIGHER)
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson gets the freebie pick for Sunday with a line of 0.5 total yards. You can add this pick to your slips for a free win.
Josh Allen, 20.5 Rushing Yards (HIGHER)
Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen faces the New England Patriots on Sunday. The Patriots defense is a shell of its former self, and Allen will be able to take advantage. Coming off a game where the Bills squeaked by with a win against the Giants, the offense will likely bounce back. Despite not eclipsing 20 rushing yards in three straight games, the offense runs best when Allen is mobile. Allen reaching 21 rushing yards is not a challenging task since he reached that mark in two of the first three games this year.
Davante Adams, 67.5 Receiving Yards (HIGHER)
Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Davante Adams faces the Chicago Bears on Sunday. The Bears have allowed the third-most passing yards and the third-most yards per attempt. After voicing his concerns about his role in the offense, Adams should be the focal point of the Raiders passing attack on Sunday. The superstar wide receiver will have veteran Brian Hoyer filling in for Jimmy Garoppolo, but Adams is good enough to command targets from any quarterback. Look for Adams to bounce back.
