The Week 18 Sunday slate looks underwhelming at first glance with multiple teams having nothing to play for, but there’s value still left on the board. Let’s dive into our NFL Week 18 anytime touchdown scorer best bets, while you can also find out our experts’ NFL picks for EVERY game.

Seahawks vs Rams anytime touchdown scorer pick: DK Metcalf (+185)

Line available at DraftKings Sportsbook at time of publishing.

This season will mark back-to-back seasons of missing the playoffs for Seattle despite having the chance to win 10 games on Sunday. They’ll battle the NFC West champions, the Los Angeles Rams, who will be sitting most of their core. That opens up an excellent opportunity to end his season on a positive note for wide receiver DK Metcalf.

While fellow wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba took over Seattle’s #1 receiver role with a career-year, Metcalf still had a solid year. He’s 71 yards shy of his 3rd straight 1,000-yard season but has only scored 4 touchdowns on the year – The lowest amount of his career. Quarterback Geno Smith has plenty of incentives to play for on Sunday, so we may get a force-fed Metcalf to help Smith cash in.

Chiefs vs Broncos anytime touchdown scorer pick: Jaleel McLaughlin (+210)

Line available at DraftKings Sportsbook at time of publishing.

The Denver Broncos are one win away from their first postseason appearance in 10 years. It goes back to Peyton Manning hoisting the Lombardi Trophy during the 2015 season. The only thing standing in their way is the 15-1 Kansas City Chiefs, led by Carson Wentz and the backup crew. That calls for a positive game script for the run game and Jaleel McLaughlin, who has run the ball effectively over the last few weeks for the Broncos.

McLaughlin started last week for Denver and came out hot. He ran the ball for 15 yards on the first drive and carried his momentum into the 3rd quarter with 40 yards. You have to go back to Week 8 to find the last time McLaughlin scored, but he’s had his fair share of redzone attempts over the last three weeks. His rush attempt prop sits at 8.5 with vig on the over, and he continues to be a solid back in the passing game.

49ers vs Cardinals anytime touchdown scorer pick: Marvin Harrison Jr. (+170)

Line available at Caesars Sportsbook at time of publishing.

We’re sticking to the 4:25 E.T. slate for our 3rd and final touchdown scorer prop on Sunday for Week 18. Rookie Marvin Harrison Jr. has watched fellow rookie receivers Malib Nabers, Brian Thomas, Ladd McConkey, and even tight-end Brock Bowers enjoy surreal rookie seasons. All while Harrison Jr. gets overlooked. Harrison is still up to 110 targets in the year but with just 57 receptions. His 22.4% target share leads the Cardinals wide receiver, along with his 11 redzone targets. Trey McBride finally reeled in a receiving touchdown last week; look for Harrison to get in on the fun in the season finale.
