There are a lot of professional gamblers who feel that NFL preseason games offer plenty of betting value, and wiseguys aren't afraid to take advantage of soft lines even as casual bettors stay away because they're "only exhibition games".
The fact of the matter is that sportsbooks pay out winning bets on preseason games at the same odds as a regular season NFL bet, and there are definite preseason trends that good NFL handicappers can isolate and exploit.
Our recommended NFL handicapping service is Mycapper.com, which features free NFL picks as well as premium NFL picks that must win before you pay for the analysis.

John Madden, a favorite of the "Raider Nation" thanks to his coaching achievements with Oakland that included a memorable Super Bowl victory, will be inducted into the NFL Hall Of Fame this weekend, so it is fitting that the Raiders, under their new head coach Art Shell, will play in the first game of the new NFL season.
