NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year Best Bets and Longshot

The NFL Draft is now in the books and the oddsmakers have turned their attention from draft props to 2020 NFL futures. At FanDuel Sportsbook, the odds for Offensive Rookie of the Year are one of the most intriguing among the early betting markets. Top overall pick Joe Burrow, who went to the Cincinnati Bengals, has the shortest odds to win at +250.

Wide receivers tend to need time to assimilate to understanding vast NFL playbooks, which has historically led to the position struggling to post stats worthy of garnering the ROY award. Since 2000, only three wide receivers—Odell Beckham (2014, Giants), Percy Harvin (2009, Vikings) and Anquan Boldin (2003, Cardinals)—have taken home the prestigious honor.
