4 NFL Futures Bets to Target

The NFL season is in full swing, and the futures market at FanDuel Sportsbook is heating up. If you’re looking to get in on the action, it’s not too late. After five weeks of thrilling football, the outlooks for teams and season-long awards are becoming clearer. Here, I present the top four values I see at FanDuel Sportsbook that you should consider.

Lamar Jackson to Win MVP

Odds: +2000

When it comes to NFL MVP odds at FanDuel Sportsbook, Lamar Jackson’s odds have never been longer this season. Some may attribute this to the recent loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers, but let’s not forget, Steelers-Ravens matchups are always intense.

I won’t jump on the “Ravens are fraudulent” bandwagon just yet. The only other loss they’ve suffered this season was against the respectable Indianapolis Colts. The Ravens are still a formidable team.

Injuries on the offensive side may mean Jackson has to carry the team to more wins, and if that’s the case, I’m all in on these MVP odds.

D.J. Moore to Have the Most Receiving Yards

Odds: +2500

D.J. Moore’s recent standout performance against the Washington Commanders may make this bet seem like chasing the hot hand. However, what’s intriguing is the chemistry building between Moore and Justin Fields.

Fields boasts a perfect passer rating when targeting Moore this season, and featuring Moore prominently in the offense has been a game-changer. Moore currently ranks fifth among all wide receivers in receiving yards (531) and leads in yards per reception among wideouts with at least 18 targets.

The Chicago Bears face two defenses in the next three games that are among the top eight for yards allowed to wide receivers: the Minnesota Vikings and the Los Angeles Chargers. Keep an eye on offensive coordinator Luke Getsy’s strategies to get Moore the ball. If Moore capitalizes on these favorable matchups, those +2500 odds might not last long.

Cincinnati Bengals to Make The Playoffs

Odds: +154

The Cincinnati Bengals at +154 to make the playoffs? It’s too good to pass up. In a conference where seven teams will make the playoffs, there aren’t seven teams better than the Bengals when they’re at full strength.

Health has been their Achilles’ heel, but their Week 7 bye couldn’t come at a better time. Despite a 2-3 record, the Bengals are just one game behind the Baltimore Ravens in the AFC North. They control their destiny, with a winnable matchup at home in Week 6 against the Seattle Seahawks and challenging games against the San Francisco 49ers and Buffalo Bills after the bye.

Two wins in these three games will significantly improve Cincinnati’s odds. With Joe Burrow finding his groove, now might be the ideal moment to bet on the Bengals.

Denver Broncos Under 5.5 Wins

Odds: +138

The Denver Broncos had high hopes for the 2022 season, but those dreams are fading fast. This team is currently a mess, especially their defense, which has surrendered a staggering 129 points over the past three weeks. Defensive coordinator Vance Joseph is under immense pressure, and a Week 6 showdown with the Kansas City Chiefs won’t provide much relief.

Denver’s only win this season came against another one-win team, the Chicago Bears. Their Week 5 loss to the New York Jets did nothing to boost confidence in their ability to win five more games this year.

As it stands, the Broncos are the NFL’s worst team according to numberFire’s nERD metric. On the bright side, this might position them to draft a top quarterback in the 2024 NFL Draft.
