PrizePicks Over/Under DFS Props Contests
PrizePicks is a great DFS picks site where you can choose to select plays in terms of fantasy points or single stats. The goal is to build a 2-player, 3-player, 4-player, or 5-player entry and then select whether or not you want to play for the power play or the flex play.
On the power play, you will need to be correct on each of your selections to win, and on the flex play, you will have a little more wiggle room for a chance to win some money back.
Before diving into some solid fantasy score totals this week, we must first cover the PrizePicks scoring format. The format is PPR, which stands for "point per reception," meaning every reception is worth one point.
Rushing and receiving touchdowns are worth six points, and passing touchdowns are worth four points. Each rushing or receiving yard is worth .1, meaning every 10 yards of either is worth one point. Quarterback passing yards are worth .04, which means every 25 passing yards are worth one point.
If you ever have questions, you can always click the "scoring chart" option above the player selections for each contest. Now, let's get to some solid fantasy score props for this week.

Jalen Hurts MORE than 40.5 rushing yards
This should be a tough spot for the Eagles backfield, which means Hurts will likely shoulder the load in the ground game. Thus far in 2023, the Buccaneers defense has allowed an average of just 55.5 rushing yards per game to the running back position, which ranks sixth-best in the league. They were also stout against running backs in 2022 as they allowed an average of just 95 rushing yards per game, which ranked in the top half of the league.
Thus far in 2023, Hurts has rushed for a total of 72 yards, failing to eclipse this total in either start. That being said, they have not faced a defense this strong against the running back position. In 2022, Hurts was able to eclipse this total in seven of the 15 games he played as well.
Rachaad White LESS than 50.5 rushing yards
This might be a bit of a lofty number for White against this Eagles defense. Thus far in 2023, they have been even better than the Buccaneers against running backs as they have allowed an average of just 44.5 rushing yards per game, which ranks third-best in the league behind only the 49ers and Cowboys.
The fact that the Bucs will enter this game as 4.5-point underdogs also works against White as they will likely be forced to throw the ball a bit more to stay in the game. White has also failed to eclipse this number in six of the previous seven games he has played.
DeVonta Smith MORE than 63.5 receiving yards
DeVonta Smith has started 2023 rather hot as he has hauled in 11 receptions for 178 receiving yards and two touchdowns, eclipsing this total in one of his first two games. He will be up against a Buccaneers defense that has started 2023 by allowing nearly 194 receiving yards per game. This ranks seventh-worst in the league thus far and leaves plenty of opportunities for Smith to eclipse this total in back-to-back weeks.
The Bucs have also allowed this total on just 25 receptions, which means the top can be taken off of this defense similar to the way Smith took the top off of Minnesota in Week 2 when he hauled in a 63-yard touchdown reception. A.J. Brown could also be a viable candidate in this game as he has seen exactly one more target than Smith so far in 2023 and also has the ability to take the top off of defenses.
