Widespread recipients finally get the respect for Attacker of the Year like NFL more violations are passing than ever before.
Hall of Famer Jerry Rice took home the award in 1987 and 1993, then a quarterback or run on victory for the next 25 years. Barry Sanders, Terrell Davis, Peyton Manning, brave cat and Drew Brees both won twice while Marshall Faulk took home three times.
However, all-stellar receivers have shined in the past few years.
St widen Michael Thomas and Rams widen Cooper Kupp are all recent winners and have a wide range of potentially powerful field weapons to take on this season.
It helps that too FOX bets seems to be taking a stance against the receiver wins OPOY, which gives you a bigger payout if you choose the right player.
Patrick Mahomes [+1800], Lamar Jackson [+1800] and Aaron Rodgers [+2500] have shorter odds Ja’Marr Chase [+3300], Justin Jefferson [+4000] and CeeDee Lamb [+5000].
“Jefferson shouldn’t be 40-1,” one professional bettor told FOX Sports. “Most shops are dealing him 12-1 or 15-1 and that’s fair. He was second in yards received last year and will be even more explosive in the future. offense by new head coach Kevin O’Connell.”
Before LSU the star fell in love Vikings camp on the freedom and space he’s getting on the team’s new offense, which will no doubt open him up to more opportunities to win yards after the catch.
“[Jefferson] is a threat to break the cash receipts record,” the bettor claimed. You’ll see Minnesota calling his number more in the deep balls. I wouldn’t be surprised if he went to the field opposite Kupp.
“He’s dangerous.”
Another low risk, high reward option is Bengali widely Ja’Marr Chase.
Chase and Joe Burrow There were no synergies at the beginning of last season, but once they clicked, game over. Chase won 5 games for 100 yards and tore the net for 201 yards against Baltimore and 266 games against Kansas City.
And you have to imagine that he will achieve more goals this year.
“I bet some Chase at 40-1 a month ago,” the bettor said. “Bengals are the kind of team that throws the ball no matter the situation. They throw when they go up and they throw when they go down. That’s what the coaching staff believe in.
“Chasing the score 33-1 [at FOX Bet] is a solid. There are many 20-1s on the market. “
It is also impossible to ignore the 9-year streak of the midfielder winning the Most Valuable Player award. In other words, it looks like the voters essentially turned the MVP award into the best quarterback and the OPOY the best skilled player.
I have my vision on Chase [+3300] and Jefferson [+4000] to make some serious noise for Offensive Player of the Year. Both have solid rhythms with their midfielders, are the best offensive weapons on their teams and are proving to be nearly unstoppable.
Taking a flyer on a star receiver is a good move.
PICK: Ja’Marr Chase Offensive Player of the Year (+3300, bet $10 to win $340 total)
PICK: Justin Jefferson Offensive Player of the Year (+4000, bet $10 to win $410 total)
