Brown: 4.5 (Over -139, Under +109)<br \/>DeVonta Smith: 4.5 (Over -139, Under +109)<\/p>\n<p>Top pick: DeVonta Smith Under 4.5 receptions (3.5 stars)<\/p>\n<p>The model is fading Smith here, with a projection of 3.9 receptions for an Under showing against the Giants. Smith has gone Under 4.5 receptions in three of his five games this year. In his one game against New York last year, Smith caught just one of two targets despite playing more than 80% of the Eagles&#8217; offensive snaps.<\/p>\n<p>Receiving yards props<\/p>\n<p>A.J. Brown: 64.5 (Over -114 Under -110)<br \/>DeVonta Smith: 50.5 (Over -110, Under -114) \u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Top pick: A.J. Brown Under 64.5 receiving yards (3.5 stars)<\/p>\n<p>Brown is averaging less than 40 receiving yards per game this year and if you take away his 109-yard outburst in Week 3, he&#8217;s averaged 21.25 yards per game. Perhaps the Eagles will try and pepper their star receiver with targets to try and cool his frustrations, but the team&#8217;s plan of pounding the rock and playing clock control has worked well so far this year. Brown is projected to have 45.1 receiving yards on Thursday.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Two of the NFL&#8217;s most talented receivers are in action Thursday night when the Philadelphia Eagles visit the&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":200101,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[436],"tags":[12478,98721,98716,6359,49,48,1743,10394,98722,98720,98718,98719,12483,1728,514,25999,25996,98717,1747,3949,82],"class_list":["post-200100","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-nfl","tag-a-j-brown","tag-aj-brown-props","tag-best-nfl-player-props-week-6","tag-betting","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-denver-broncos","tag-devonta-smith","tag-devonta-smith-props","tag-eagles-giants-best-bets","tag-eagles-giants-odds","tag-eagles-giants-props","tag-jalen-hurts","tag-new-york-giants","tag-nfl","tag-nfl-betting","tag-nfl-gambling","tag-nfl-week-6-odds","tag-philadelphia-eagles","tag-saquon-barkley","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/200100","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=200100"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/200100\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/200101"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=200100"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=200100"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=200100"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
