CeeDee Lamb, Cowboys, Over 73.5 receiving yards (-114, DraftKings)

Lamb racked up 1,194 receiving yards last season, averaging 79.6 receiving yards per game. He was able to post those numbers even without quarterback Dak Prescott on the field for most of the campaign due to an injury. Lamb went over this number in three straight games to close the season, finishing with 100-plus yards in two of those games. He led the NFL with 135 receptions in 2023, and SportsLine’s model has Lamb finishing with 76 receiving yards on Thursday, creating value on the Over. 

Jake Ferguson, Cowboys, Over 3.5 receptions (-140, DraftKings)

Dallas added wide receiver George Pickens to its offense in the offseason, which could help Ferguson get open on Thursday night. He was heavily targeted by Prescott early in the 2024 season, commanding at least seven targets in three of the first four games. Ferguson caught at least six passes in all of those games, and he had four receptions against the Eagles on Nov. 10. The model has him catching four passes on Thursday. 

Saquon Barkley, Eagles, Over 94.5 rushing yards (-114, DraftKings)

Barkley is coming off a 2,000-yard campaign, and he had at least 100 rushing yards in 11 regular-season games. He had five of those outings in his final six games of the regular season, and he followed it up by going over 100 rushing yards in three of his four playoff games. Barkley is facing a Dallas defense that ranked No. 29 in the NFL against the run last season, giving up 167 yards to Barkley on Dec. 29. The model has Barkley racking up 104 rushing yards in the season opener to go Over this total.Â
