2022 NFL Futures Betting: Post-Week 12 Updates on MVP, OPOTY, DPOTY and Other Player Awards

We still see a lot of value on the board when it comes to year-end player awards in the NFL, so we're taking a look at some things you should keep an eye on after Week 12. As we get closer to the end of the regular season we’re thinking more about those end-of-season awards. 

We’ll get into the movement within each market and hopefully point out some good picks for all of them. Each and every Tuesday we’re taking a look at the big movers in each category, so let's get into it.

If you haven't already, you should consider signing up for DraftKings ➡️ here ⬅️ as you can turn a $5 pre-game moneyline bet on any game into a free $150 if your team wins. 

 

Betting Updates on MVP, OPOTY, DPOTY and Other Player Awards

Most Valuable Player (MVP)

This is now Patrick Mahomes’ award to lose as the Chiefs QB looks to add another MVP award to his resume. He’s now -140 after having been +150 last week.

Elsewhere Jalen Hurts is +400 from +700 last week, with Tua Tagovailoa still sat at +600. The former favorite Josh Allen has slid out to +1300, having looked certain to win this award at one point.

The DimersBOT is ON FIRE! Four straight winning weeks, 10 of the last 12 picks are winners.  Don't miss this week's early NFL leans!

Offensive Player of the Year (OPOTY)

This award has been a duel between two wideouts for the past couple of weeks. Last week it was Tyreek Hill the +250 favorite ahead of +350 Justin Jefferson. This week the odds have switched and it’s the Vikings receiver who is +250 favorite, with Hill chasing at +250.

Hurts is in the running at +400 and could be a good bet if Mahomes does manage to lock down the MVP award. Speaking of Mahomes, he has stayed at +1000.

Defensive Player of the Year (DPOTY)

Last week Micah Parsons was -375, which implied a 78.9% chance that he would win this award. Today the best odds you can get are -1250 which implies 92.6% chance that we see the Cowboys star win it.

If he stays fit it’s just a matter of time and nobody in the NFL is more likely than Parsons to win an award right now.

If you like to gamble on the chance of somebody getting injured then perhaps Nick Bosa at +1400 or Matthew Judon at +1600 are the way to go, but it isn’t for me.

Offensive Rookie of the Year (OROY)

Kenneth Walker’s position at the top of the OROY betting has just solidified and he’s now at -165.

The big news is that Dameon Pierce, former favorite, who has been neck and neck with Walker, has slipped to fifth favorite at +1100.

Chris Olave is second at +550, with Garrett Wilson at +800 but Christian Watson at +1000 is the biggest mover having been +3000 just last week. If you remember, we suggested him as a good bet after Week 11.

 

Defensive Rookie of the Year (DROY)

Sauce Gardner continues to be the favorite at -300 but Tariq Woolen has emerged as a possible chasing candidate, having moved into second favorite at +450.

Elsewhere there’s Aidan Hutchinson at +800 before the likes of Kayvon Thibodeaux and Kyle Hamilton at huge +6000 odds.

Coach of the Year (COTY)

We haven't had much movement at the top of this market.

Nick Sirianni continues to be the favorite and is still priced at -130, with Mike McDaniel second, and at the same +550 odds he was last week. The biggest mover has been Robert Saleh, with the Jets HC now third favorite at +600 after another huge performance.

Kevin O’Connell is still in the mix at +700 but then the odds take a big jump to Brian Daboll at +2200 and Mike McCarthy at +2500.

Comeback Player of the Year (CPOY)

At -250 it’s Geno Smith in the driving seat for this award with the Giants RB and former favorite Saquon Barkley the only man who can realistically catch him at +185.

Derrick Henry at +2000 and Christian McCaffrey and Nick Gates, both at +3000, are chasing but it feels unlikely that they can catch Smith or Barkley.
