Davante Adams To Score Two or More Touchdowns +330
In as much as Jacobs is an integral cog on the offense, so too is wide receiver, Davante Adams. The All-Pro is tied with Travis Kelce for the most receiving touchdowns this season and he ranks fourth overall with 1,176 yards on 79 receptions.

In four of Las Vegas’ last five games, Adams put up eye-watering stats, trotting up 125+ receiving yards per game and scoring multiple touchdowns three times. Most recently, he put up a season-high 177 yards and two touchdowns at the expense of the Chargers.
- Pick: Adams to Score Two or More Touchdowns +330
Cam Akers Anytime Touchdown Scorer +140
Sometimes the best trades are those that you don’t make. Cam Akers was reportedly on the trading block at the start of the season but when nothing suitable came up, the Rams kept him on the roster. Now, by an unfortunate process of elimination, he’s the Rams’ best offensive weapon.

Injuries decimated Sean McVay’s offense and derailed the Rams’ championship-defending campaign. It’s been an unmitigated disaster from the start and with the walking wounded including QB Matthew Stafford, WR Cooper Kupp, WR Allen Robinson and WR Ben Skowronek, to name a few. It’s been tough sledding all around.
This is Akers’ chance to shine for Los Angeles, be it for the sole purpose of climbing up the depth chart or showcasing his wares to potential buyers in the offseason. The running back is coming off a strong showing against the Seahawks, in which he ran for 60 yards and two touchdowns. He should have another solid game against a Raiders defense that has a few chinks in its armour.
