PrizePicks Over/Under DFS Props Contests
Be sure to also check out our brand new PrizePicks Optimizer tool and the free PrizePicks DFS Props Tool to see more recommended picks.
PrizePicks is a great DFS picks site where you can choose to select plays in terms of fantasy points or single stats. The goal is to build a 2-player, 3-player, 4-player, 5-player, or 6-player entry and then select whether or not you want to play for the power play or the flex play.
On the power play, you will need to be correct on each of your selections to win, and on the flex play, you will have a little more wiggle room for a chance to win some money back.
You can mix and match players from different games in your entry or select all of your plays from the same game. Once you have selected your players and props, you can choose the aforementioned flex play or power play option. Let's see what the board offers today!
NFL DFS Props - Over/Under Picks for TNF
Aaron Jones MORE than 97.5 rushing + receiving yards
Aaron Jones rebounded nicely last week by totaling 116 yards from scrimmage. He has been a force on the ground and through the air all season as he has totaled 443 rushing yards and 190 receiving yards.
The matchup vs. the Rams should be another spot where he can take advantage. On the season, the Rams have allowed the 12th-most rushing yards to running backs while also allowing an average of over 4.5 yards per carry.
The Rams have also allowed running backs to haul in a total of 23 receptions. While this number may not seem high, it is worth noting that backs have only been targeted 25 times, so the Rams are allowing a 92% catch rate vs. the position.
Jones has also eclipsed this total in four of his six games played this season. Given the fact that Minnesota is a three-point favorite, you could see Jones heavily involved down the stretch to ice the game away as well.
