About These Picks

As we analyze data for our 2022 NFL predictions and preseason rankings, as well as for the release of our Fantasy Football rankings, we do a lot of research on NFL players and teams.

This research often reveals insights that lead us to believe there is value in a specific NFL preseason bet.

For the 2022 NFL preseason and college football season, we are sharing some of these “staff picks” with our premium subscribers for the first time.

We plan to release picks on a periodic basis throughout the preseason. They will include both team and player specific bets, such as:

Team win total (over/under on regular season wins) picksPicks for teams to win divisions/conferences, or make/miss playoffsPlayer prop picks for 2022 regular season statsPlayer futures picks for awards or milestones (most passing yards, rushing yards, etc.)Look-ahead line picks for 2022 regular season games

For each pick we make, we will note the sportsbook that offered it, and the associated line/payout odds at the time when we published it.
