Who will score a touchdown this week? Whether you intend to make an anytime touchdown bet, are setting a DFS lineup or simply enjoy peering into a crystal ball, I have a prediction for you. Every week, we generate fantasy football projections for every game on the slate, and that includes the probability that a player will take the ball into the end zone. Here are my top predicted scorers for Week 1, ordered by their implied odds*, as well as the anytime touchdown moneyline offered by Draft Kings at time of publication.

These implied odds are what my projections consider the fair odds of that player to score on an anytime touchdown bet. For the latest odds on these and all other player props, visit Draft Kings.*Implied odds convert the probability of an outcome projected by Mike Clay into a moneyline. Look for implied odds that are higher than the moneyline offered.

For example if the implied odds are -150 and the moneyline is -110, then Clay's projection system indicates an advantage for the bettor. If the implied odds are +110 but the line offered is -110, the projection system sees a disadvantage to be avoided.
