Betting Updates on MVP, OPOTY, DPOTY and Other Player Awards
Most Valuable Player (MVP)
Two weeks ago Patrick Mahomes was a best price of +450 to win the MVP. Two Bills defeats and an injured Josh Allen has lost his status as favorite and Mahomes is now +125.
Allen, who once looked like a lock, is now fourth in the betting at +600 with Jalen Hurts at +550 and Tua Tagovailoa at +500.
The Dolphins QB is a riser and hasn’t been beaten in games he’s started and finished. With the Dolphins on a role, he could be the value bet at +500.
Offensive Player of the Year (OPOTY)
Last week we were crowning Tyreek Hill as a potential winner as he moved from +800 to +350. He’s now just +300 but somehow not the favorite.
The new favorite, moving from +1000 into +225 is Justin Jefferson. The Vikings wideout had an incredible day and pulled off the grab of the season, if not the best grab in recent memory (sorry, Odell).
Jalen Hurts at +900 and Patrick Mahomes and Stefon Diggs at +1200 are on the outside looking in.
Defensive Player of the Year (DPOTY)
Another week, another odds move for Micah Parsons, with his odds of winning Defensive Player of the Year, moving even shorter to -250.
Unless there’s an injury, Nick Bosa at +800 has no chance, nor does Matthew Judon, who is a quick riser and now just +1000.
Offensive Rookie of the Year (OROY)
Walker has moved from +100 to -145 to take a firm lead on the OROTY race. Quite a surprise given a quiet performance in Germany against the Buccaneers.
His only competition is coming from Dameon Pierce at +210. Chris Olave has slid from +900 to +1400 and is still in third place, which really underlines just how much of a two-horse race this is.
Defensive Rookie of the Year (DROY)
Stop the award, it’s done, it’s dusted. This is Sauce Gardner’s award and in truth -160 still feels like value, as you just can’t see it going anywhere else but to him.
If you’re looking to bet on somebody else then Aidan Hutchinson at +1000 is your best bet, with Kayvon Thibodeaux third place despite being a huge +3000.
Coach of the Year (COTY)
Well, well, well, it looks like the Eagles’ shock Monday Night Football defeat to the Commanders has had a big impact here. Nick Sirianni is still favorite but his odds are more appealing at +150 than they were last week at -120.
Kevin O’Connell is the biggest riser, from +800 to +275, with his Vikings starting to look like they might just be the real deal.
Brian Daboll is third at +500 and Mike McDaniel is shortening again and is now just +800.
Comeback Player of the Year (CPOY)
A loss to Tom Brady’s Bucs in Munich hasn’t moved Geno Smith’s odds of winning Comeback Player one bit, with the Seahawks QB still -130. Saquon Barkley had another big week for the Gaints, and his fantasy owners, and is +100.
This really is a battle between the two men with Derrick Henry and Christian McCaffrey both tied for third at +2500.
