Hypothetically, in case you appreciated tight finish Trey McBride to steer the league in receptions, and also you thought he may even catch probably the most landing passes (at lengthy odds), you most likely wouldn’t thoughts paying somewhat juice on the Cardinals’ burgeoning star to attain 5 touchdowns this season.
Bet: Trey McBride Over 4.5 TDs (-143)

Bet: Bijan Robinson to steer NFL in speeding yards (+900)
Baltimore Ravens
Any season-long futures bets on the Ravens get roughly useful relying on what occurs in Buffalo on Sunday night time. The Bills shouldn’t have any hassle successful the AFC East, however we don’t bet in opposition to Lamar Jackson in primetime. Baltimore will get its revenge from the loss again in January, in a decidedly hotter Orchard Park.
Bet: Ravens Week 1 ML (-110) at Bills
Buffalo Bills
We’re instructed the Bills run an “everybody eats” offense. While that labored properly for a shock season out of Khalil Shakir final season to earn “No. 1” standing, the Bills introduced in 25-year-old Joshua Palmer to additionally swing by the buffet. He exceeded this whole with the Chargers in three straight seasons.

Bet: Joshua Palmer Over 525.5 receiving yards (-110)
Carolina Panthers
If there was a division to select a protracted shot, it’s within the NFC South the place the bar for successful the division is yearly fairly low. If the Panthers flip a really sturdy second-half of final season right into a shock 2025, voters will ignore their irritation about Dave Canales’ chiseled handsomeness, and provides him all of the credit score for remaking Bryce Young to get Carolina again within the playoffs.
Bet: Dave Canales to win Coach of the Year (16-1)
Chicago Bears
Apparently, Caleb Williams is “determined to be the first 4000-yard passer in Bears’ history.” Well, we’re decided to win cash if he does, figuring out that if it comes right down to needing a couple of additional yards late within the season, Williams will likely be capturing for this milestone.

Bet: Caleb Williams to throw greater than 4000 passing yards (+200)
Cincinnati Bengals
On the optimistic facet, I couldn’t determine which of the various pro-Bengals season-long props on Joe Burrow and Tee Higgins that we’ve over at THE WINDOW to advocate right here, however the hope for one other huge statistical season for the Cincinnati offense is based on the Bengals being dangerous all over the place else once more.
Bet: To miss the playoffs (+120)
Cleveland Browns
While he wasn’t given the award final yr, Myles Garrett was once more probably the most dominant defensive participant within the NFL. We’ll maintain betting on him to win Defensive Player of the Year till that’s now not the case. Especially, when he’s not even the favourite.

Bet: Myles Garrett to win DPOY (+850)
Dallas Cowboys
Go procuring for the 15-1 value that’s on the market, as Dak Prescott (4 two-interception video games earlier than getting harm final season) should sling it with abandon once more this season — particularly without Micah Parsons on defense. Don’t fear, Cowboys followers, he’s additionally a viable bet to throw for probably the most yards too.
Bet: Dak Prescott to steer the NFL in interceptions (+1200)
Denver Broncos
If you may abdomen a quasi-fade of the Chiefs, a playoff team from final season that’s trending upwards virtually must be a bet at +310. The Broncos, Chargers and Vikings are the one such groups to be priced that method this season, and Denver’s the one one of many three whose arrow is pointing up.

Bet: Broncos to win the AFC West (+310)
Detroit Lions
Jahmyr Gibbs completed in a three-way tie for the league lead in speeding touchdowns final season, and in case you’re like me, you is likely to be extra afraid of Gibbs within the passing recreation (517 receiving yards and 4 extra TDs) on any given play. I assume 2,000 yards from scrimmage and over 20 touchdowns is doable.
Bet: Jahmyr Gibbs to win Offensive Player of the Year (10-1)
Green Bay Packers
The commerce for Parsons dried up a lot in the best way of worth in terms of pro-Packers betting, however there’s nonetheless somewhat meat left on the Jordan Love bone.
Love had 32 TDs two seasons in the past, however the Packers obtained 20 TDs from operating backs final season, and a banged-up Love (who missed two video games) solely had 25, organising a plus-money value on this for 2025.

Houston Texans
Yes, it’s one other DPOY bet, as we’ve began a four-player portfolio in that market over at THE WINDOW. Will Anderson’s trending towards a sack-per-game charge for his third season, and if he does, he must be within the hunt for the award because the consultant of an excellent Texans protection.
Bet: Will Anderson Jr. to win Defensive Player of the Year (12-1)
Indianapolis Colts
Because I couldn’t simply kind “all of the Jonathan Taylor long-shot futures.”
Bet: Jonathan Taylor to attain most speeding touchdowns (15-1)
Jacksonville Jaguars
We’re not supposed to present a participant the Comeback Player of the Year as a result of he stunk and now he doesn’t, so it’s handy that Lawrence missed the final half of 2024. If new head coach Liam Coen will get Lawrence to succeed in his potential, voters will give him this award citing the damage and never an on-field transformation, however you and I know what the actual deal is … oh sure, you and I know.

Bet: Trevor Lawrence to win Comeback Player of the Year (+500)
Kansas City Chiefs
He’s getting engaged (oh, you hadn’t heard?). He’s stumping for Shedeur Sanders.
When Travis Kelce finds out that he didn’t really retire final yr and he’s anticipated to be in Brazil on Friday, think about the look on his face. His numbers have been already trending downward, and it’s arduous to think about they don’t maintain falling in what is certain to be Kelce’s last season.
Bet: Travis Kelce Under 700.5 receiving yards (-114)
Las Vegas Raiders
Chip Kelly, meet Brock Bowers, your latest strolling mismatch to design offense for.
“Hey, Geno Smith, yes, that’s Brock, right over there. He’s going to make your life easier than a Vegas VIP host.”

Bowers’ 112 receptions in his rookie season ought to simply be the tip of the iceberg for, probably, one of the best pass-catching tight finish within the NFL already.
Bet: Brock Bowers to steer NFL in receptions (11-1)
Los Angeles Chargers
Eventually, once you understand you’re comparatively excessive on the Broncos and Raiders, plus Patrick Mahomes nonetheless exists, it happens that possibly a bet on the below for the Chargers’ win whole is likely to be a great way to specific all of these realizations. In reality, if Justin Herbert have been to overlook a while, issues may get darkish early in L.A. with the expertise drain from the roster lately.

Bet: Under 9.5 wins (-120)
Los Angeles Rams
I instructed you there have been extra within the DPOY portfolio! Jared Verse ought to at the least be on trial for the cost of placing Terron Armstead into retirement, and final yr’s Defensive Rookie of the Year goes to the right former Ram to step his game up even additional.
Bet: Jared Verse to win Defensive Player of the Year (12-1)
Miami Dolphins
It appears like every second day there’s information out of Miami that can make anybody within the Dolphins flip into the Michael Scott gif the place he is saying, “Nope. Don’t like that.”
Right now, given the Fins’ depth chart at offensive line and within the secondary, the one cause to like Miami is that everybody appears to agree that it might be a tough season.

Minnesota Vikings
A yr after the Packers traded Aaron Jones in for a youthful mannequin (Josh Jacobs), are the Vikings seeking to do the identical?
Minnesota acquired the 26-year-old Jordan Mason from San Francisco — a tailback with far much less tread on his tires than the 30-year-old Jones. Mason’s averaged 5.3 yards per carry in his profession, in comparison with Jones’ 4.5 final season.
Bet: Aaron Jones Under 725.5 speeding yards (-120)
New England Patriots
Given RB TreVeyon Henderson’s explosiveness, it’s totally potential he can rack up half of the yards wanted to go over 700 yards on 5 or 6 carries. So, it’s not like we have to sweat whether or not he’s formally the No. 1 operating again in New England. Of course, given Rhamondre Stevenson’s lack of explosiveness, it is going to be arduous to imagine if Henderson isn’t.

Bet: TreVeyon Henderson Over 700.5 speeding yards (-110)
New Orleans Saints
Last season, quarterbacks not named Derek Carr averaged simply over 13 factors when pressured into motion. With Carr abruptly retiring, will Spencer Rattler and Tyler Shough be capable of do notably higher? If not, over 17 video games, a equally low PPG can have New Orleans among the many backside of the league.
Bet: Saints to attain fewest factors in NFL (+500)
New York Giants
Malik Nabers is already a prime candidate to steer the league in receptions.
It shouldn’t take a lot to faucet into the explosiveness that Nabers had in the beginning of final season (when Daniel Jones was the quarterback), with all or any of Russell Wilson, Jameis Winston, or Jaxson Dart.

As lengthy because it’s not Tommy DeVito — the QB when Nabers didn’t have a protracted reception for an enormous chunk of the season, Nabers ought to flip his excessive quantity of catches right into a excessive quantity of yardage.
Bet: Malik Nabers to steer NFL in receiving yards (12-1)
New York Jets
The method some are talking comparatively optimistically concerning the Jets, you’d assume that they’d by no means seen:
-
The group in motion, or
-
Justin Fields play quarterback.
The Jets’ two finest gamers are rendered largely ineffective if Fields can’t get it to Garrett Wilson, and opponents don’t should throw (wherever close to Sauce Gardner).
Bet: Worst report within the NFL (+800)
Philadelphia Eagles
Almost 4,000 passing yards, over 500 speeding yards, round 40 whole touchdowns, and an superior team — that’s the factors that Lamar Jackson and Josh Allen have reached in successful the final two MVPs.

If Jalen Hurts can get again to his passing yardage in 2022 and 2023, and do his common harm on the bottom, whereas the Eagles win the NFC East once more, he’s simply as prone to win MVP at 18-1 because the quarterbacks lined within the single digits.
Bet: Jalen Hurts to win MVP (18-1)
Pittsburgh Steelers
If you’re seeking to hedge the Aaron Rodgers’ expertise one way or the other being a hit in Pittsburgh, that is the best way to do it. Managing Rodgers and every little thing that comes with an aged quarterback who doesn’t know he’s aged, would be the piece-de-resistance on Mike Tomlin’s resume, lastly getting him a NFL Coach of the Year nod.

Bet: Mike Tomlin to win Coach of the Year (35-1)
Seattle Seahawks
Pair this up with the Saints, on the premise that the Seahawks — who couldn’t run the ball, have a shaky offensive line, and changed DK Metcalf with Cooper Kupp — may need hassle getting one of the best model of Sam Darnold. Plus, if Darnold doesn’t survive to play 17 video games, Drew Lock will likely be on the helm. Woof.
Bet: Seahawks to attain fewest factors in NFL (28-1)
San Francisco 49ers
We could probably not know if the 49ers are all that nice till the playoffs, however their schedule is so comfortable that it may not matter if they’ll steal the highest seed within the NFC due to it.

The odds to make the Super Bowl are merely a operate of likelihood primarily based on the potential path, and the 49ers have nearly as good an opportunity as any team to get the first-round bye and a house recreation within the second spherical, however as a result of they missed the playoffs final season, they’re not priced like it.
Bet: 49ers to win the NFC (+900)
Tampa Bay Buccaneers
From a numbers standpoint, RB Bucky Irving is only a newer, longshot model of Jahmyr Gibbs. Irving wasn’t the clearcut No. 1 tailback till the latter half of 2024 (type of like Gibbs), however as soon as he was, his utilization and manufacturing averages undertaking to the magic variety of 2,000 scrimmage yards a operating again wants for Offensive Player of the Year consideration.

Bet: Bucky Irving to win Offensive Player of the Year (50-1)
Tennessee Titans
If each keep wholesome, this must be a two-horse race between Cam Ward and Ashton Jeanty, and the tie virtually at all times goes to the quarterback in voting (or within the case of the 2024 Heisman Trophy, it goes to the hybrid receiver/cornerback). An unexpected receiver popping off, or a fast entry into the beginning QB job for Jaxson Dart, are the one issues that would confuse the scenario.
Bet: Cam Ward to win Offensive Rookie of the Year (+350)
Washington Commanders
Finishing fifth within the NFL in whole factors with a rookie quarterback is spectacular. With one other yr of working collectively, Jayden Daniels and Kliff Kingsbury shouldn’t simply not miss a beat, they’ll add a pair for the sub-woofers on the Commanders’ bandwagon. As a team, Washington’s protection continues to be greater than somewhat suspect, however that solely helps our case, because it causes urgency for Daniels and firm to maintain piling up the factors.
