Targeting the Best Future NFL Bets & Picks during Off-season

Previous Betting News

While the Super Bowl is over, and the NFL season is in the books, the reality is that the business of football never really grinds to a complete halt. All over the country, GM’s and front office staff are probably busy preparing for the upcoming draft, while also making decisions about the players who will come and go during free agency. The coaching carousel appears to be almost fully stopped, but the QB wheel is still turning at a fast pace. Getting involved with some NFL future odds right now is perhaps not a good decision, at least until every team is done making moves, but that is not going to stop us making some predictions for you to start planning your betting strategy for the 2018 NFL season.

Making Some Predictions

The Dynasty is Over in New England

The cracks are beginning to show in the armor in New England, as a once tight group seems to be coming apart at the seams. You may not believe all the reports of dissension coming out of Foxboro, but when there is smoke, there is usually some fire.

Tom Brady will be 41 this coming season, and there is talk that Rob Gronkowski might consider hanging up the cleats. It’s the first time in recent memory that a cloud of uncertainty is hanging over Gillette Stadium, which I think signals the beginning of the end of a great dynasty.

The San Francisco 49ers are a Legitimate Dark Horse Pick

One of the things that appear to have created issues in New England was the trading of Jimmy Garoppolo to the 49ers. It looks to have been the steal of the century, as he took a less than mediocre team and instantly turned them into a winner.

The 49ers won the final 5 games of the season with Garoppolo under center, and with a few more additions this offseason, the 49ers could quickly become a playoff team. Watch out for this group, a potential division winner next season.

No Repeat Performance for the Eagles

There has been a lot of talk about the Eagles being at the beginning of a run that could lead to more than one Super Bowl over the next few years. It’s an idea that makes some real sense when you consider that they won it all this year with their backup QB under center. The thinking is that Philly will be even better when Carson Wentz returns next season, but everyone seems to be forgetting that they are going to lose some key parts in the offseason.

The Eagles are in a spot of bother when it comes to the salary cap and are going to need to offload some high-priced personnel, most likely in the linebacking group. Couple that with the fact that the NFC is ridiculously strong, and you get an idea of just how tough it will be for them to repeat, despite being favorites in several NFL Future Bets.

The Lombardi Trophy Stays in Pennsylvania

The clock is ticking on Ben Roethlisberger’s time in the league, and you also wonder how long the Steelers can afford to keep their huge offensive pieces together. Much of the blame for last season’s playoff failure was laid at the feet of OC Todd Hayley, who is now plying his trade in Cleveland.

If Hayley was indeed part of the problem, then surely, we can expect an upgrade from what we saw out of the Steelers offense last season. If that happens, look for Pittsburgh to add ring Lombardi Trophy #7 to the cabinet, so be sure to include them in your NFL Future Bets.

The 2017 Super Bowl may now be a thing of the past, but as experienced football followers and betting aficionados know, an NFL season and its vast betting opportunities, are now a virtually year-round journeys that never end.

To that end, I’m going to point you towards some of the best NFL futures odds that you can wager on right now.

Targeting The Best Future Bets & Picks Of The NFL Offseason

Super Bowl 52 Odds

New England +500 Atlanta +800
Dallas +1000
Green Bay +1000
Pittsburgh +1000
Seattle +1200
Denver +1200

Analysis:
As you can see, oddsmakers clearly aren’t expecting a Super Bowl hangover and have installed Tom Brady and the Patriots as prohibitive favorites to win Super Bowl 52. Can the Pats go back-to-back or will they fall prey to one of the other top title contenders? For me, Seattle is offering the best value of the top title contenders.

AFC Championship

New England +240
Pittsburgh +550
Denver +800
Oakland +800

Analysis:
The Pats will contend, but I’m in love with the value that the Oakland Riders are offering heading into next season after their postseason plans got cut short due to Derek Carr’s late-season injury.

NFC Championship

Dallas +400
Green Bay +550
Atlanta +600
Seattle +600

Analysis:
I already said that I like the value that Seattle is offering heading into next season, but the fact of the matter is that the Seahawks aren’t lock to win the NFC in 2017 and will have some stiff competition, most likely in the form of the Dallas Cowboys.

Total Games Sean McVay Coaches Before Getting Fired in 2017-18

1-6 +800
7-12 +700
13-16 +600
Not Fired -175

Analysis:
The Rams got their man in the 30-year-old McVay and he won’t be fired – at least until he completes his first season, though I think he’s actually going to get a couple of seasons at the very least.

How Many Games Will Tom Brady Start in 2017-18?

16 Games -200
15 Games +200
14 Games +400
13 Games +600
12 Games or Lower +900

Analysis:
I like the ‘15’ pick, seeing as how Brady will likely sit out New England’s regular season finale.

Tom Brady TD Passes 2017-18

36 or More TD Passes +300
34-35 TD Passes +200
30-33 TD Passes EV
29-32 TD Passes +150
25-28 TD Passes +400
24 or less TD Passes +800

Analysis:
Brady didn’t reach the 30 TD plateau this past season, but he came very close – after missing four games to start the season. I like Brady to toss either 34 or 45 TD passes in 2017, but hey, that’s just me.

Tom Brady Interceptions 2017-18

10 or More Interceptions
7-9 Interceptions
6-4 Interceptions
0-5 Interceptions

Analysis:
Brady tossed two picks this season but I’m thinking he’ll toss half-dozen next season.

What Will Happen First for Johnny Manziel in 2017-18

Arrested +190
Start an NFL Game -270

Analysis:
I lose this fun-filled wager, even though I have no idea when Johnny Manziel will ever suit up for an NFL game again – if he ever does. Personally, I think the chance of Manziel getting arrested first is much higher than him starting an NFL game despite the odds here.

There are also value-packed odds up for the number of wins the Cleveland Browns will record next season and the total number of quarterbacks the Browns will use, among other fun-filled futures odds in the MyBookie.ag bettor-friendly sportsbook.
