For Week 7, one of the Sharp Money plays the SuperBook has taken is the Las Vegas Raiders (+7, 43.5) covering on the road against the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday. The line has risen 2.5 points from the opener. The Raiders have been blown out in consecutive games, but shook things up this week when they traded disgruntled wide receiver Davante Adams to the Jets. The Rams are also scheduled to play on Thursday Night Football in Week 8, so they may opt to rest All-Pro wide receiver Cooper Kupp against Las Vegas.
The Rams rank 28th in the NFL in total defense, and the Raiders have a budding star in rookie tight end Brock Bowers. The former Georgia standout enters Week 7 with 37 catches for 384 yards and a touchdown. Bowers will play a more integral role in the Raiders offense with Adams no longer in the mix. All-Pro defensive end Maxx Crosby (ankle) is expected to be fully available for the Las Vegas defense. See who else the NFL Vegas sharps are backing in Week 7 here.
