New York Giants at Seattle Seahawks Best Bets And Player Props
Saquon Barkley Over 81.5 Rushing Yards (-115 at DraftKings Sportsbook) for 1 unit
Barkley is one of the main reasons why the Giants have been successful this season. Not only is he healthy again, but he's showing the same burst and speed that he had before injuries limited him the past couple of seasons. The Giants have given him a huge workload, which has resulted in at least 18 carries five times.
With Barkley having the ball in his hands so often, he's totaled at least 82 rushing yards in a game four times, which included three games with at least 110 rushing yards. The Seahawks have not been good at slowing down opposing running backs, allowing the fourth-most rushing yards per game in the league. It wouldn't be a surprise to see Barkley post at least 100 rushing yards again, let alone hit the over on this number.
Darius Slayton Over 33.5 Receiving Yards (-115 at DraftKings Sportsbook) for 1 unit
The Giants traded Kadarius Toney to the Chiefs on Thursday, and Kenny Golladay (knee) remains injured. Those two being out lately has brought Slayton added time on the field, and he's starting to emerge as a favorite target for Daniel Jones. Another important note for this game is that tight end Daniel Bellinger (eye) is out. Taking his place will be Chris Myarick and Tanner Hudson, neither of which is a great receiving option.
Since Slayton re-emerged in the Giants' wide receiver rotation in Week 5, he has two receptions of at least 20 yards over three games. He had 79 yards on six receptions in Week 5, and 58 yards on three receptions in Week 7. When the Giants do throw deep, they like to look Slayton's way. That makes the over on this modest total an appealing option.
Kenneth Walker III Over 80.5 Rushing Yards (-115 at DraftKings Sportsbook) for 1 unit
The Seahawks need Walker to step up in a big way with Rashaad Penny (ankle) out for the season. So far, so good. He's received at least 21 carries in both games since taking over as the team's primary running back, posting 97 and 167 rushing yards, respectively. He also has three touchdowns during that span.
As tough as the Giants' defense can be, Walker should receive plenty of carries in this game. Not only is he the top Seahawks running back, but the team might be forced to run the ball even more if DK Metcalf (knee) can't take the field. Volume alone could push Walker to hit the over here.
