NFL Regular Season Passing Yards Leader Betting Odds

PlayerTeamOdds2023 Stat (Rank)
Patrick MahomesKC+5504,183 (6th)
C.J. StroudHOU+6504,108 (8th)
Dak PrescottDAL+7504,516 (3rd)
Jared GoffDET+9004,575 (2nd)
Joe BurrowCIN+9002,309 (24th)
Tua TagovailoaMIA+9004,624 (1st)

The health concerns of Joe Burrow and Tua Tagovailoa also make them iffy choices, and the CeeDee Lamb of it all makes Dak Prescott risky too.

For our money, C.J. Stroud is the best bet on the board here. He has a relatively tough schedule, but he does have six games against the weak AFC South to look forward to. Three Pro Bowl-caliber wideouts, a couple of solid tight ends, and a sturdy offensive line should put him in pole position.

Even before the improvements they made to the offense during the 2024 offseason, Stroud led the league in passing yards per game as a rookie in 2023. His +650 odds are only going to get shorter, so hop on now.

Best Bet: C.J. Stroud, Houston Texans (+650)

NFL Regular Season Rushing Yards Leader Betting Odds

PlayerTeamOdds2023 Stat
Christian McCaffreySF+3001,459 (1st)
Jonathan TaylorIND+600741 (30th)
Saquon Barkley PHI+750962 (16th)
Breece HallNYJ+800994 (13th)
Derrick HenryBAL+1,2001,167 (2nd)
Kyren WilliamsLAR+1,2001,144 (3rd)

Christian McCaffrey didn’t lead the league in rushing attempts last year, but we’re wagering he will do in 2024. He averaged a whopping 5.4 yards per carry to lead the league in rushing yards last year, and with Brandon Aiyuk teetering on the edge of a departure and George Kittle and Deebo Samuel both loving a niggle, CMC will be the well Kyle Shanahan will have to continue to draw from.

Jonathan Taylor would also be a decent option at +600. Philly’s past history with running back committee’s makes us wary of Saquon Barkley, and the presence of the MVP makes it hard to believe Derrick Henry could pace the league either. Breece Hall at +800 is intriguing, but McCaffrey is still the best and safest bet here despite the lack of value on his +300 odds.

Best Bet: Christian McCaffrey, San Francisco 49ers (+300)

NFL Regular Season Receiving Yards Leader Betting Odds

PlayerTeamOdds2023 Stat
Tyreek HillMIA+6001,799 (1st)
CeeDee LambDAL+6501,749 (2nd)
Ja’Marr ChaseCIN+1,1001,216 (12th)
Justin JeffersonMin+1,1001,074 (19th)
A.J. BrownPHI+1,2001,456 (5th)
Amon-Ra St. BrownDET+1,2001,515 (3rd)

Tyreek Hill is always going to be in the mix, but considering CeeDee Lamb is still holding out as of this writing, his spot at number two on the odds table seems strange. Hill would be a decent shout, but the best value here is surely Justin Jefferson, who led the league in 2022.

Jefferson missed seven games last year, but he still managed over 1,000 yards and finished second behind only Hill in receiving yards per game. Minnesota could be playing from behind a lot this year, which is good for J.J.’s chances.

If you think the QB situation will be a hurdle for the 2022 OPOY, think again: with Nick Mullens and Jaren Hall throwing him the rock over the final month of the 2023 season, he put up 476 yards on 44 targets, both of which were second in the league during that span. +1,100 odds for Jefferson here are criminally long, but we’re not complaining.

Best Bet: Justin Jefferson, Minnesota Vikings (+1,100)

NFL Regular Season Sacks Leader Betting Odds

PlayerTeamOdds2023 Stat
T.J. WattPIT+35019.0 (1st)
Micah ParsonsDAL+40014.0 (T-7th)
Myles GarrettCLE+45014.0 (T-7th)
Maxx CrosbyLVR+55014.5 (6th)
Trey HendricksonCIN+1,00017.5 (T-2nd)

T.J. Watt has led the league in sacks in three of the last four years, and there’s no reason to believe he’s going to slow down in 2024 after posting an NFL-high 19.0 last season. Watt is the safe pick at +350 odds, but there are some other long shots offering enough value to warrant a dart throw.

Aidan Hutchinson at +1,800 is also very interesting considering he led the league in pressures last year with 62, 12 more than the next best guy.

The Vikings will also be blitzing more than they did even in 2023 (when they set a record for blitzes) which will lead to more pass-rushing opportunities for their top guy, Jonathan Greenard, who’s offering huge +6,000 odds.

Best Bet: T.J. Watt, Pittsburgh Steelers (+350)/Jonathan Greenard, Minnesota Vikings (+6,000)
