Biggest Opta AI Player Prop Edge

Drake Maye Over 255.5 Passing Yards (-111): The OptaAI player prop projections seemingly love Maye every week, but what’s not to love? He has been one of the best players in football this season, looking the part of a Pro Bowl veteran — and nothing like a second-year pro. Well, in Week 12, OptaAI has Maye throwing for 296.96 yards against the Bengals. That’s a massive edge to the Over on his total of 255.5 at DraftKings Sportsbook. Maye has gone Over this mark in four consecutive games, plus six of the last seven. And this is arguably the worst defense in the NFL.
Best WR Matchup

Packers wide receiver Dontayvion Wicks vs. Vikings defensive back Josh Metellus: Guys like Jaxon Smith-Njigba and Puka Nacua have awesome matchups this week, according to the WR-CB Matchup Tool. However, those guys have good matchups every week. They’re absolute stars and can create separation against anyone. That said, I picked out a player that the tool likes that is a little off the beaten path. That’s Wicks. Wicks will likely be going to work against Metellus, as he should draw the safety when working in the slot. Well, that could work out for him. So, going Over on Wicks’ receiving yard prop of 19.5 could be a good option this week.

Ashton Jeanty Under 59.5 Rushing Yards (-115): Jeanty’s Unders have been very profitable this year. He is 7-3 in the 10 games he has played, good for an ROI of 32.6% and +3.64 units. Now, Jeanty is going up against a Browns defense that can be very tough to run against. Will we see another weak performance from the rookie?
