Dalvin Cook Over 15.5 Yards Receiving (-115, PointsBet)
Dalvin Cook is coming off a masterful performance against the Steelers and draws a manageable prop on Monday night. Cook has averaged 21.9 yards per game, and he projects for 27.7 yards against the Bears, culminating in a 70% expected win rate and 31% return on investment for the over. The Bears have allowed 32.46 yards per game to opposing running backs while ranking 20th in pass DVOA against the position. Cook has seen an average 13% catch share per game over the past five games, an increase from earlier in the season. Cook can thrash this prop against a decimated Bears run defense, while the nickel up from standard juice looks just fine.

Cole Kmet Over 2.5 Receptions (-145, Caesars)
It has been a tumultuous year for the Bears offense, though tight end Cole Kmet has emerged as a reliable target in his second season. Kmet is averaging 3.3 catches per game and projects for four receptions on 6.03 targets against the Vikings, leading to a 76% expected win rate and 28% return on investment for the over. Minnesota has allowed 3.46 catches per game to opposing tight ends while ranking 16th in pass DVOA against the position. Kmet has registered at least three catches in each of his last three games, with as many as eight receptions (against Detroit) in that span. Although the spend-up is somewhat unappealing, the achievable reception prop still makes for one of the best looking by OddsShopper‘s projections.
Darnell Mooney Over 3.5 Receptions (-141, Caesars)
Darnell Mooney leads the Bears in target share and receptions by a great volume and has a low hanging receptions prop in reach. Mooney is averaging four catches per game, and he projects for 5.04 catches on 8.35 targets against Minnesota. As such, OddsShopper gives this over a 71% expected win rate and 22% return on investment. The Vikings rank 23rd in pass DVOA against WR1’s, having surrendered 14.15 catches per game to opposing wide receiver corps. Mooney has garnered no fewer than five targets in 13 games outside of a four-target performance in Week 3, though posting a dropped pass in each of the past four games is a bit concerning. Still, the over on Mooney’s moderate catch total is still inviting.
