Here is something that you may want to keep an eye on. Turns out that the Las Vagas oddsmakers are throwing their hats into the fantasy football ring.

They are going to be allowing people to wager on the performance of NFL players based on an over/under style scoring system. The article doesn’t really say what scoring system will be used but it does list lines for a few players; Donovan McNabb is listed at 16 and Terrell Owens at 14.

From a fantasy football angle, even though they will only be picking 24 players each week, these betting lines could have the potential to be another viable resource when determining your weekly lineup. I know I will be keeping an eye on the performance of these lines just to see which NFL players the oddsmakers think will perform (or not) each week. These guys are professionals and do have a lot at stake. They are no doubt looking at each hand picked player from every conceivable angle. (I’d give you a link to the player odds but I couldn’t find one. I will keep looking so stay tuned).

From a sports betting angle, if you have access to these lines, and you know your fantasy football, you may be able to make some money.
