Tucker Kraft Over/Under 21.5 Yards Longest Reception (DraftKings)
Kraft's ascension to one of the NFL's most productive tight ends this season could have been foreseen by how well he played in 2024 and Green Bay's refusal to elevate their wide receivers statistically more, but make no mistake, the third-year TE has earned it. Now, Kraft gets one of the top tight end matchups in the league against the Carolina Panthers, who have allowed the following tight ends to post long receptions against them:
- Brenton Strange: 24 yards longest reception
- Trey McBride: 31 yards
- Elijah Higgins: 27 yards
- Hunter Henry: 31 yards
- Darren Waller: 34 yards
- Dalton Kincaid: 24 yards
With QB Bryce Young expected back in action this week for the Panthers, I expect them to keep in this game anyway, but Matt LaFleur always puts Kraft into the early game plan for the Packers. He should be plenty involved with QB Jordan Love in this one.
PICK: Kraft OVER 21.5 yards longest reception (-110)
