Best NFL Week 17 PrizePicks Plays - Christmas Day

Best PrizePicks Picks current as of 12:15 PM ET Thursday.

Jordan Addison 3 Receptions (MORE)

It's tough to trust someone catching passes from Max Brosmer, but I think there's some value here. In Brosmer's lone start against Seattle -- a much stronger pass defense -- he targeted Addison 10 times and completed 5 passes. I expect a similar game script here, with Detroit acting as a pass-funnel defense. With T.J. Hockenson banged up, Brosmer's other security blanket may be limited, which could lead to more short, primary-read throws designed to get the ball out quickly.

Terry McLaurin 51.5 Receiving Yards (MORE)

This one also feels a bit scary with Josh Johnson at quarterback, but at least Johnson is a veteran who has been around a while. With a full week of practice, I think he can move the ball against Dallas. Despite improvements in the run defense, the Cowboys are still being attacked heavily through the air. Over the last five games, they allowed the second most fantasy points to wide receivers. Only Detroit allowed more, and we're already targeting them with the Addison prop.

McLaurin doesn't need a ton of targets thanks to his YAC ability. Playing time could be a concern, but with McLaurin having missed much of the year and now appearing fully healthy, this feels like a spot for him to capitalize on a great matchup.

Dak Prescott Under 276.5 Passing Yards (LESS)

Washington's defense is suspect at every level. Teams have been able to run and pass on them all season. If I were confident Prescott would play until the final whistle, I'd actually like the over here. However, just last week we saw Joe Milton play the final two series in a 10-point game vs the Chargers . If Prescott gets close to this number, it's likely because Dallas has already dominated Washington, making his production unnecessary in the fourth quarter.
