With the 2026 NFL season in full swing, DraftKings is back with a tool to help you build the ultimate parlay. Start by selecting one pick – an “Anchor” bet – and choose how many legs you want. Then, the Free Trending Parlay Picks Optimizer will give you a custom parlay based on games in which the Anchor bet has previously won.
The New England Patriots and Chicago Bears are set to face off in the first game of Week 7, going head-to-head on Thursday Night Football. DraftKings Sportsbook has Chicago pegged as a 3-point favorite at home. The Patriots are riding a three-game winning streak capped by a divisional win over the New York Jets, but they are still just 1-2 on the road. As for the Bears, they also improved to 4-2 by beating the Atlanta Falcons in Caleb Williams’ return from a three-game injury absence.
If you feel good about the Bears getting back in the win column on Thursday night, here is a fresh NFL SGP Anchor via the Free Trending Parlay Picks Optimizer.
- Chicago Bears moneyline (-148)
- Chicago Bears first team to score (-166)
- D’Andre Swift over 14.5 rush attempts (-134)
- D’Andre Swift 70+ rushing + receiving yards (-240)
- Luther Burden III 60+ receiving yards (+104)
Combined Odds: +600
Creating a parlay with the appropriate angles on the specific totals listed above would have hit in each of Chicago’s last three wins. So, instead of simply picking Bears moneyline at -148, you can ride these additional trends on Thursday versus the Patriots.
On the other side of the contest, picking Drake Maye to pass for over 1.5 touchdowns could be a smart play considering he has done so in three straight. The Free Trending Parlay Picks Optimizer has run the numbers on that pick’s past success as an NFL SGP Anchor, as well.
- Drake Maye over 1.5 pass touchdowns (-120)
- Drake Maye over 31.5 pass attempts (-104)
- New England Patriots moneyline (+124)
- Hunter Henry 40+ receiving yards (+109)
- Over 50.5 total points (-115)
Combined Odds: +1700
Creating a parlay with the appropriate angles on the specific totals listed above would have hit in two of the three games in which Maye tossed multiple touchdowns this season. Keep these trends in mind if you’re confident in Maye connecting with his targets in the end zone Thursday night.
