Current Favorites
Jayden Daniels (Washington Commanders)(-20,000): It did not take long for Daniels to be named the starter in Washington, and in week two, he picked up his first career win over the New York Giants. Daniels quickly followed up that performance with three more wins. Now, after 15 games, Daniels has his Commanders boasting a 10-5 record.
Following the Commanders' win over the Eagles, Daniels had 3,303 passing yards, 22 passing touchdowns, six rushing touchdowns, and a 69.7% completion percentage.
Brock Bowers (Las Vegas Raiders)(+2200 to +2500): If Bowers had a legitimate starting quarterback this season, his odds for this award would likely be even closer to Jayden Daniels. Despite catching passes from Gardner Minshew, Aidan O'Connell, and Desmond Ridder, the rookie tight end is 8th in the league with 1,067 yards and 2nd in the league with 101 receptions.
Bo Nix (Denver Broncos)(+5000 to +10,000): It didn't look pretty at first, but Bo Nix has turned things around and has the Broncos sitting with a 9-6 record. After throwing for two touchdowns in a loss to the Chargers, Nix has 3,235 yards and 22 passing touchdowns on the year.

Current Favorites
Jared Verse (LA Rams)(-400 to -550): Verse was taken 19th overall by the Rams in the hopes that their defense does not see a dramatic dropoff after Aaron Donald retired and the trade of Ernest Jones IV. The former FSU standout certainly made his presence felt in week one, as he recorded four tackles and registered his first career sack. On the season, Verse has recorded 63 tackles, 4.5 sacks, and two forced fumbles through 15 games.
Quinyon Mitchell (Philadelphia Eagles)(+300 to +400): After the 2023-24 season, it was clear that Philadelphia needed help in the secondary, and Mitchell has certainly helped address that problem. Mitchell has 41 tackles on the year, along with 11 pass defenses. The rookie also allows just a 56.9% completion percentage when targeted this season.
Tarheeb Still (LA Chargers)(+1500 to +3700): It is not very common for players drafted outside the first round to win Rookie of the Year, and while Still may not bring the award home, he has certainly made a name for himself as a 5th round pick. The Chargers cornerback has done a bit of everything for them this season, as he has 51 tackles, ten pass defenses, four interceptions, and a .5 sack.
