DraftKings NFL Promos for Week 1

Bills vs. Rams - Up 7 Early Win (up to $50)

Description: If the team you select (moneyline bet) is up by 7+ points at any time in the game, you will automatically win your bet (this saves you from the times that your team gains a 7-point lead but eventually loses the full game).

How to play: Select 'Early Win token,' Place up to $50 risk on your team's moneyline.

Traditionally, these bonuses tend to favor the underdog, the Rams in this instance. There are many times where the underdog jumps off to a lead and then eventually loses the game. This is why first-quarter and first-half bets are much lower odd payouts than the full game. To take full advantage of the promotion, it is suggested to take the LA RAMS moneyline.

Looking at the Sharp App to check odds among favorite sites, we see that LA RAMS +115 on Draftkings is just behind the best option of +118. The benefit of securing a win at any point of the game is well worth the sacrifice of slightly better odds and can be seen as a highly +EV bet.

My Bet: $50 LA RAMS +115 on DraftKings with up 7 Early win promotion opted in.

+200 Odds Boost to Regular Season Most Receiving Touchdowns

Description: Bet on any player to win Regular Season Most Receiving Touchdowns and get an additional +200 American odds added to your wager.

My Pick: Travis Kelce +1200 (boosted to +1400)

With Tyreek Hill gone and undeniable chemistry with Patrick Mahomes, Kelce is going to get additional endzone looks. Barring injury, Kelce should have a floor of 9 touchdowns with the opportunity to get several more. While he may not be the favorite to win overall, it's hard to pass up on this much value. Getting +1200 (currently the best odds among all the popular sites) and then an additional +200 to make it +1400 means that you will only need to win more than 6.67% of the time for this to be a profitable bet.

There are several other choices you can make that give you extra value. Make sure you compare the odds to other sites first. Some DraftKings options are very poor in terms of odds (ie, Chase +500).

10 Point Early Win NFL Week 1 (up to $50)

Description: If the team you select (moneyline bet) is up by 10+ points at any time in the game, you will automatically win your bet (this saves you from the times that your team gains a 10-point lead but eventually loses the full game).

First and foremost, you should always check the Sharp App for the best odds for any game. If you don't have that sports site, it's probably best to sign up for it (there isn't any expense or cost to doing so) to have as many options as possible. You can find links on the app, in discord, or just ask staff, and they'll be able to provide you with one.

If you see a moneyline bet on a team you like, you can check the odds against Draftking's line and decide if the difference in payout is worth the added benefit of the 10-point insurance.

I suggest using these bonuses on teams with a highly volatile offense and subpar defense. Teams that can start hot but not at a completely sustainable rate.

These are the teams that I bet on that I believe fit these criteria:

Arizona +170 (+175 best found odds)
Detroit +165 (+170 best found odds)
Las Vegas +155 (+160 best found odds)
Minnesota +100 (+105 best found odds)
Dallas +110 (+110 best found odds)

Super Bowl Outright Betting Market

Description: Get $5 in Free Bets for each game your team wins during the NFL 2022-2023 season

To take full advantage of this promotion, one should look for teams that have high win totals and good odds compared to other available sites. You can win up to a maximum of $50 in free bets, so teams that win at least ten games would let you essentially freeroll (if you consider free bets as currency).
