NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year Betting

A running back hasn’t won the NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year since 2018, but Ashton Jeanty is the favorite to end that drought. The sixth overall pick by the Las Vegas Raiders, Jeanty enters a situation in Vegas that will rely heavily on the run game. New Raiders coach Pete Carroll had success in Seattle with Marshawn Lynch and Jeanty fits the mold. Opening odds suggest a two-player race with No. 1 overall pick Cameron Ward close behind Jeanty. They are the only two players with shorter than 10/1 opening odds. Ward is looking to turn the Tennessee franchise around, much like last year’s winner Jayden Daniels did with Washington.

The running back position got a boost last season from Saquon Barkley, who became only the ninth player in NFL history to rush for more than 2,000 yards. And ironically, Barkley was the last ball carrier to win the award taking honors in 2018 after rushing for 1,307 yards and 11 touchdowns with an additional 721 yards and four TDs on 91 receptions. Jeanty led the country with 2,601 yards rushing and 29 TDs last season at Boise State earning numerous accolades while finishing as runner-up for the Heisman Trophy.

The top overall draft pick out of Miami, Ward has all the tools to be special. The only problem is that he’ll be playing for a Titans team that’s rebuilding and not expected to be very good. That can be a good thing with Ward elevating his team to play above expectations much like Daniels did last season with the team formerly known as the Redskins. Unfortunately, he can’t do it all by himself and the Titans aren’t very deep.

The second tier of favorites includes five players boasting between 10/1 and 17/1 odds. The most intriguing player in the group is Travis Hunter, who showed exceptional playmaking ability as receiver in college. Some scouts say Hunter’s future in the NFL is at corner but he’ll likely play both ways to at least give him a shot at winning the award.

The second overall pick in 2024, Daniels electrified the league coming one vote short of being the unanimous NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year. Daniels opened as the third favorite a year ago but quickly emerged as the top candidate leading Washington to four wins in their first five games. He started every game going 12-5 and completed 69 percent of his passes for 3,568 yards with 25 TDs and nine interceptions. In addition he led the team in rushing with 891 yards and six more scores.

The New York Giants have had two OROY winners in the last decade in Odell Beckham Jr. and Saquon Barkley. OBJ took the Big Apple by storm in his rookie season, and he was the first wide receiver to earn this honor since Percy Harvin in 2009. Saquon Barkley captured the honor in 2018 running for 1,307 yards and 11 touchdowns in his debut season.

There hasn’t been a unanimous NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year since Ben Roethlisberger claimed every first place vote after leading the 2004 Pittsburgh Steelers to a 15-1 record. Big Ben was fantastic throughout his first season in the league, becoming the first quarterback in 34 years to be named Rookie of the Year. Interestingly enough, Garrett Wilson was named the 2022 NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year despite receiving fewer first-place votes than Kenneth Walker III.
