NFL Prop Bets Wide Receiver Odds: Most Receiving Yards LeadersWho leads in pass catching yards?Statfox: This is the hardest bet of the three by far. Larry Fitzgerald is the odds-on choice at +500 and very difficult to make a case against him. At 26 (years old), he's in his prime and has played enough to know what is expected. He took the quantum leap in the playoffs to be a super star and he has kept his mouth shut in spite of growing celebrity. This year should be the season he's the best, but Warner's potential health makes us cringe. Join the World's most popular Online Sportsbook and receive a 50% SIGN-UP BONUS + $25 FREE CASH!

Steve Smith is next at +550, but does anyone really trust 34-year old Jake Delhomme after the way he played in second half? Not me. Andre Johnson was the yardage leader in 2008, having to play with different quarterbacks. What worries me about A.J. is if Matt Schaub goes down again to injury, Dan Orlovsky is the current backup. Reggie Wayne is listed at +700, nonetheless is not a big play receiver, having the same number of 20+ yard catches as Wes Welker (13). That means too many catches to win the yardage title. Well who do you like? Statfox: I actually prefer a couple of longer shots. Nobody missed Brady more than Randy Moss. Not many 32-year old pass catchers are as multi-purpose as Moss, whose number dipped precipitously with Matt Cassell better at the short passing game. Moss' focus should return being a bigger part of the passing game and definitely has enough in the gas tank for at least one more huge season. You can't help but notice Calvin Johnson, literally. He's 6'5, a pound or two either way of 240 and is as fast as any elite pass receiver. On a team that didn't win a game, Johnson was fifth in NFL receiving yards and caught 12 TD's. With a better supporting cast, a quarterback like rookie Matthew Stafford who can throw over the secondary, its not the worst bet you can make at +1000. My choices in order are Moss, C. Johnson and Fitzgerald. --- by Sportsbook.com at 1800-sports.com on August 08, 2009
