NFL player props, odds, expert picks for Week 7, 2021: Lamar Jackson over 230.5 passing yards for Ravens

More than one-third of the season is in the books, and 11 teams come into NFL Week 7 with a winning record. Only seven are in action as part of the 11-game Sunday schedule, and only one game pits two against each other. That means you’ll need to dig deep into the hundreds of Week 7 NFL prop bets. Three teams with winning marks are off this week, and the New Orleans Saints (3-2) face the Seattle Seahawks (2-4) on Monday Night Football. The game of the week could be the Cincinnati Bengals (5-1) against the Baltimore Ravens (4-2), while the Arizona Cardinals (6-0) will try to stay unbeaten when they host the Houston Texans. Which NFL props should you target?

NFL rushing leader Derrick Henry faces the Chiefs, and Caesars Sportsbook has the Over-Under for his rushing yards at 123.5 (-115) in its latest Week 7 NFL prop picks. Each game offers dozens of NFL prop bets, and you can cash in big if you can find the value. Before you make any 2021 NFL Week 7 prop bets, you need to see the top NFL picks and predictions from NFL props expert Alex Selesnick.

Over the past two seasons, Selesnick (aka PropStarz) is up 122 units on NFL props and futures plays. For a $100 bettor, that’s a return of more than $12,000 return. PropStarz specializes in NFL and NBA prop betting, where he implements a combination of research, statistical analysis and mathematical modeling. His background playing competitive poker, Scrabble and backgammon helped form the foundation of his sports betting approach. 

Through six weeks, PropStarz is an eye-popping 20-10 on his picks for SportsLine, and he cashed in easily on four of his five picks last week. One of those was Bears quarterback Justin Fields going Over the 14.5 rushing yards (-115) listed at Caesars Sportsbook, even though the rookie had just 25 over his first three starts.

“Fields is capable of picking this up on just one rushing attempt,” PropStarz told SportsLine before the Bears hosted the Packers. The expert was hoping Chicago coach Matt Nagy would start playing to the rookies’ strengths. But he said “even if Nagy doesn’t turn Fields loose, I still like his chances to potentially break off a nice gain after the pocket collapses.” 

Of course, that’s exactly what happened, and Fields broke off runs of 14 and 16 yards as he scrambled away from the Green Bay pass rush. He finished the game with six carries for 43 yards, and PropStarz and anyone who followed him cashed that bet. 

Now, after sifting through hundreds of available Week 7 NFL prop bets, PropStarz has found five more picks he loves. He’s only sharing his coveted NFL prop picks at SportsLine

Top 2021 Week 7 NFL prop picks

One Week 7 NFL prop bet PropStarz is backing: Lamar Jackson will go Over 230.5 passing yards. The Ravens quarterback has made huge strides as a passer this season and is averaging 281 passing yards per game. He has a strong receiving corps led by wideout Marquise Brown (486 yards, five TDs) and tight end Mark Andrews (468, three). Rookie first-round pick Rashod Bateman finally joined the mix last week. Jackson has gone over this number in five of the six weeks.

The Ravens don’t have the backs this season to power their typical power running game. Their three best backs are on IR, and Latavius Murray will be out this week. “I am buying into this high-volume Ravens passing attack, which we’ve seen a lot of so far in 2021,” the expert told SportsLine. “I’m not suggesting that the Ravens are going to lead the league in passing attempts anytime soon, but I do think that they are going to continue to lean on Lamar’s arm.”
