2024 NFL Awards Odds and Predictions

We are five weeks into the regular season, and there have already been major changes in the updated NFL awards odds. Here are the updated betting odds for the most popular NFL awards, including MVP and Rookie of the Year, courtesy of Bovada Sportsbook.

Updated 2024 MVP Odds

Player	Most Valuable Player Odds	Previous Odds
Patrick Mahomes	+225	+525
C.J. Stroud	+600	+750
Lamar Jackson	+650	+1800
Josh Allen	+850	+800
Jayden Daniels	+1100	N/A

Mahomes entered the season as the +525 MVP favorite. The Chiefs quarterback fell out of the top spot, but as other MVP favorites faltered, Mahomes regained his standing as the betting favorite. He is listed at +225 to win his third MVP this season.

Josh Allen was my preseason pick for MVP, but he has struggled through injuries this season, and the Bills offense has been inconsistent. I also do not think Mahomes, who is not playing well, will win the award. CJ Stroud (+600) is my new pick to win MVP this season.

Latest DPOY Odds

Player	Defensive Player of the Year Odds	Previous Odds
Aidan Hutchinson	+300	+900
TJ Watt	+300	+525
Chris Jones	+1000	+2500
Nike Bosa	+1100	+725
Patrick Surtain	+1100	N/A

Aidan Hutchinson was listed at 9-1 odds to win Defensive Player of the Year at the start of the season. His 6.5 sacks in four games have rocketed Hutchinson into the top spot. He is tied with TJ Watt at +300 odds to win DPOY this season. My preseason dark horse DPOY pick, Chris Jones, has moved from +2500 to +1000 and now has the third-best odds.

Hutchinson leads the NFL in sacks, and the Lions have already had their bye week. However, Watt was my preseason pick for this award, and I am sticking with #90 to win DPOY this season.

OPOY Odds and Pick

Player	Offensive Player of the Year Odds	Previous Odds
Derrick Henry	+230	N/A
Saquon Barkley	+400	N/A
Justin Jefferson	+450	+1000
Ja’Marr Chase	+750	N/A

No NFL Awards betting market looks more different than the OPOY standings. Justin Jefferson is the only player who had +1000 odds for better before the season that is still ranked in the top four. Christian McCaffrey, Tyreek Hill, Breece Hall, and CeeDee Lamb have all faded out of contention in this market.

The Ravens’ Derrick Henry (+230) is the favorite for this award, followed closely by Saquon Barkley (+400). Baltimore has leaned on Henry more in recent weeks and their season has turned around from 0-2 to 3-2. Assuming the King stays healthy, Henry will win OPOY this season.

DROY Betting Odds

Player	Defensive Rookie of the Year Odds	Previous Odds
Jared Verse	+250	+350
Laiatu Latu	+350	+360
Kamari Lassiter	+600	N/A
Quinyon Mitchell	+600	N/A
T’Vondre Sweat	+750	N/A

The DROY odds also look radically different. Jared Verse (+250) is still the favorite, and Laiatu Latu (+350) remains a top betting candidate. However, Dallas Turner, Terrion Arnold, and Byron Murphy have fallen out of the top five, while Kamara Lassiter (+600), Quinyon Mitchell (+600), and T’Vondre Sweat (+750) have moved up.

I picked Verse to win DROY in my preseason predictions. Verse has slowly but surely started to pull away from the pack, and he remains my pick to win this award.

Updated OROY Odds and Prediction

Player	Offensive Rookie of the Year Odds	Previous Odds
Jayden Daniels	-250	+375
Caleb Williams	+300	+135
Malik Nabers	+700	+1200
Marvin Harrison Jr.	+1600	+550
Bo Nix	+2500	+900

Commanders’ rookie sensation Jayden Daniels has moved to -250 in the OROY odds. Caleb Williams, the preseason favorite, has faded from +!35 to +300 in the latest odds.

I picked Williams to win OROY in the preseason, but his slow start, combined with Daniels’ MVP-level play, has caused them to flip-flop in the updated odds. Daniels is a great bet to win this award, but I think Williams can continue to improve and make a run at OROY this season.

COTY Betting Odds and Prediction

Coach	Coach of the Year Odds	Previous Odds
Kevin O’Connell	+135	N/A
Dan Quinn	+275	N/A
Sean Payton	+1000	N/A
Mike Macdonald	+1200	+700
Jim Harbaugh	+1400	+800
Raheem Morris	+1400	+600

None of the current top-three Coach of the Year candidates were in the top five at the top of the season. Kevin O’Connell (+135) is the new favorite after the Vikings 5-0 start. He is followed by Dan Quinn (+275) and Sean Payton (+1000).

Raheem Morris was the preseason favorite at +600, but he has faded to +1400. Jim Harbaugh, my preseason CotY pick, is also listed at 14-1. I think O’Connell is the way to go with this bet, especially if the Vikings continue to dominate on both sides of the ball.
