The Leading Receiver In The NFL Is +1000 To Finish The Season With The Most Yards

Since 2010, only three WRs have had more receiving yards through their first four games than Deebo has this year 👇 (3 minute read)

Deebo’s World

Through four weeks of football, these five receivers currently lead the NFL in receiving yards 🤲

  • Deebo Samuel: 490

  • Tyreek Hill: 453

  • Cooper Kupp: 431

  • DJ Moore: 398

  • Davante Adams: 373

No one could have expected Deebo to get off to this type of start. In fact, his preseason over/under for total receiving yards was 875.5. With 13 games left in the season, he’s already more than halfway there…

While he’s clearly flashed potential to be a 1,000-yard WR in his first two seasons, Deebo is on pace to get there in just nine games. His 2021 numbers have been that good, even with average QB play

  • 2019: 53.5 YPG

  • 2020: 55.9 YPG (7 games)

  • 2021: 122.5 YPG

A Historic Start

Since 2010, only three WRs have had more receiving yards through their first four games than Deebo’s 490

  • Wes Welker, 2011 - 616 yards

  • Steve Smith, 2011 - 513 yards

  • Julio Jones, 2018 - 502 yards

  • Deebo Samuel, 2021 - 490 yards

Despite standing alone atop the receiving yards leaderboard today, he holds just a 37-yard edge over Tyreek Hill and is tied for the fourth-best odds to lead the league at the end of the year

Odds to have the most receiving yards (all odds subject to change)

  • Tyreek Hill: +600

  • Davante Adams: +700

  • Cooper Kupp: +900

  • DJ Moore: +1000

  • Deebo Samuel: +1000

  • Stefon Diggs: +1000

You would think that the leading WR would have better odds than +1000…but with QB play up in the air in San Fransisco (we might see Trey Lance starting this weekend), Deebo just isn’t getting the love that his 122.5 YPG deserves

Instead, Kansas City’s five-time Pro Bowler is the favorite (+600) to lead the league this season. Tyreek averages 75 YPG in his NFL career, an outstanding number that is hard to replicate without Patrick Mahomes as your QB

The Big Sleeper

Everyone loves a good sleeper, and some of the WRs with longer odds might be too tempting to pass on. Take a look at some of the biggest sleepers

  • Travis Kelce: +1600

  • Terry McLaurin: +2000

  • Chris Godwin: +2200

  • DeAndre Hopkins: +2500

DeAndre Hopkins has the strongest track record, but has a serious hole to climb out of. Through four games he has 225 total yards, third-best on his own team behind A.J. Green and Christian Kirk, hence, the long odds

However, is it time for D-Hop to bring home the receiving crown? He’s come so close in the past, and Arizona’s high-powered offense should give him plenty of chances to catch-up

  • 1,407 yards, 2020: 3rd best

  • 1,165 yards, 2019: 11th best

  • 1,572 yards, 2018: 2nd best

  • 1,378 yards, 2017: 4th best

For My Parlay Gurus

On Sunday, Deebo’s Niners face D-Hop’s Cardinals, pitting the 2-2 Bay squad against the NFL’s only remaining undefeated team

For our parlay of the day we’re going to ride with the WR discussed above 👇

  • Deebo OVER 62.5 receiving yards: -115

  • D-Hop OVER 76.5 receiving yards: -115

  • OVER 50 total points scored: -110

$100 on this three-legged parlay nets you a payout of $567. If this hits I’m snagging this sick PS5 x Balenciaga hat 🧢
