Gross Bombs: NFL Props for Week 16
Josh Gross
Looking to scratch an action itch? You bet we got you covered. Every day our ravenous bettors scour the web for their favorite player props to boost the bankroll. Today’s featured line comes from ‘The Big Noise’ himself, Brad Evans.
Prop: Michael Gallup OVER 900.5 receiving yards (-110, DraftKings)
The Big D in Dallas stands for “Deliver,” and that’s precisely what Gallup is poised to do for fantasy and betting devices in this third season with the ‘Boys. Here’s why:
- The former Colorado State standout rammed it in a breakout campaign last year. On 112 targets, he hauled in 66 receptions for 1,107 yards and six touchdowns over 14 games. In a proven offense — Dak Prescott ranked QB14 in adjusted completion percentage last fall — and with a suspect defense offering support, the volume will crank again.
- Digging deeper, Gallup was dynamite across the advanced analytics board. He ranked top-25 in total air yards, contested catch rate, yards per catch (16.8), average depth of target (13.5) and YAC per reception (5.05). The kid, entering just his third season, is a proven baller. Giddy the heck up.
- Daffy Ducks are Looney Tunes for CeeDee Lamb, comically so. He’s a tremendous talent but expected to slide into Randall Cobb’s primary slot role, he poses only a minor threat to Gallup’s overall production. Remember, Cobb posted an 83-55-823-3 line last season. Honestly, that’s Lamb’s likely ceiling in Year 1.
Bottom line, if you enjoy counting hundred dollar-bills, Dallas’ shining star is someone who could easily add to the stack, whether from a betting or fantasy (WR30, 70.3 ADP) perspective.
