PrizePicks NFL Fantasy: 2021 Season Props

It is important to note that, much like odds that update throughout the day, these props at PrizePicks are subject to change. So if you like these NFL picks below, it is wise to jump on them quickly.

Rob Gronkowski: Over 4.5 Receiving TDs

When discussing NFL props for the upcoming season, it is important to remember that the league added a 17th game to the schedule.

Rob Gronkowski got off to a slow start in Tampa Bay, and many wondered if he was washed up. One of the big reasons for his slow start was his conditioning. He was not fully in game shape, and playing down in the hot Tampa conditions made things worse. Yet Gronkowski still finished with seven touchdowns.

Again, adding a 17th game to the schedule means Gronkowski needs to get one touchdown every three games. He also played less than 60% of the snaps last season, which kept him healthy and available the entire year. Assuming said health, five touchdowns should not be much of an issue.

Ezekiel Elliott: Over 1,100.5 Yards Rushing

Last season was a disappointing one for Ezekiel Elliott, and he let down many of his NFL fantasy owners. However, it seemed to be a perfect storm. The offensive line in front of him was absolutely decimated. Then Dak Prescott went down injured, followed by Andy Dalton, so defenses barely had to respect the quarterback taking snaps.

Elliott played five games with Prescott last season and ran for 364 yards in these games. While the offensive line was already beat up, this is a disappointing output. Still, extrapolated over a 17-game season, this comes to 1,237.6 yards, which is far over the prop goal. With his efficiency expected to improve this season, Elliott could cross 1,100 yards with many weeks left.

T.J. Watt: Over 12.5 Sacks

T.J. Watt has been an absolute monster off the edge for the Steelers. While Watt is one of the best in the league at getting after the passer, he has some dogs alongside him on the Pittsburgh line, and they create many more individual blocking assignments than opposing quarterbacks would like. With Cam Heyward eating up blocks in the middle and the Steelers adding Melvin Ingram to an already opposing pass rush, Watt will make a lot of noise again this year. He has improved his sack total every single season. Over the past three years he has totaled 13, 14.5 and 15, the last of which came in only 15 games last season. With a Week 18 on the schedule, this should be an easy goal for him.
