Eagles vs Giants anytime touchdown scorer pick: Devonta Smith (+250)
Odds available at FanDuel at time of publishing.
Davante Adams burned us last Thursday, yet we will back the next best Devonta, Devonta Smith. Smith was the lone bright spot in the Eagles first loss of the season. He reeled in 8 of 10 targets for 114 yards. With all the noise hovering over A.J. Brown and his unhappiness, Smith put together his best game of the season against a stout secondary in the Broncos. So, we’ll back him against an underwhelming Giants defense that ranks in the middle of the pack in pressure rate and sacks. If Hurts can get time in the pocket to throw, Smith is a prime target to catch a long ball.
Eagles vs Giants anytime touchdown scorer pick: A.J. Dillon (+1000)
Odds available at FanDuel at time of publishing.
I can’t stomach backing the price of Saquon Barkley to score a TD at -160 odds on FanDuel and DraftKings. Nor the -130 odds on Jalen Hurts to score. Barkley comes into Thursday dinged up versus a talented Giants defensive front. Not to mention the run game has looked putrid to start the year, with now Landon Dickerson questionable. That said, we will take a flyer on newcomer A.J. Dillon scoring his first TD as an Eagle.
Head to FanDuel to back Dillon to score a touchdown. Be sure to opt into the Thursday touchdown jackpot that rewards bettors with bonus bets for their selected player scoring the first or last touchdown. If the Eagles can take care of business early, Dillon will be in the market for extensive work as a touchdown favorite on the road on a short week.
