Super Bowl 58 between the Chiefs and 49ers might be in the rearview mirror, but the sportsbooks are never closed regarding NFL betting. Futures odds for the 2025 season have been available on , including Super Bowl and conference championship odds. Today, though, we're specifically interested in the 2025 NFL MVP market, and we'll take to those odds to see if we can uncover any value. The favorites probably won't surprise you in the least. Patrick Mahomes, a two-time league MVP and now three-time Super Bowl MVP, sits atop the board at +600. Josh Allen, a perennial MVP candidate, sits just below Mahomes at +800. Joe Burrow, who hopes to return from wrist surgery by the offseason OTAs, yields a hopeful +900. Rookie of the Year C.J. Stroud (+1100) and 2024 MVP Lamar Jackson (+1200) round out the top five. However, savvy bettors know that betting short odds in a futures market mostly serves as a futile exercise. Wagers on next year's MVP should involve (a) a player's upside of actually winning the award and (b) a strong enough payout to make the risk worth the reward.

Through 13 weeks, the veteran Cowboys QB had ama sed an NFL-high 26 TDs, just six interceptions, and a yardage total that averaged out to 269.5 pa sing yards per game. Then, disaster struck. Prescott suffered a terrible Week 14 lo s in Buffalo, then lost again a week later in Miami.He totaled three picks in Dallas's last four weeks of the season, while at the same time Lamar Jackson had gone thermonuclear in Baltimore. The rest was history. Still, Dak improved in far too many areas to be given 14-1 odds to win MVP. He just finished runner-up for the dang thing, and Dallas had the highest-scoring offense from start to finish all season! He went from the 2022 season leader in interceptions (15) to the 2023 leader in TDs (36) and completions (410). If Jerry Jones brings in justone more pieceto Brett Cecil Jersey complement emergent All-Pro wideout CeeDee Lamb and Pro Bowl tight end Jake Ferguson, this Cowboys team could launch into legit Super Bowl contention and Prescott could make the small leap from runner-up to league MVP. He's a great bet at +14000. Another strong MVP option:Jordan Love (+1600) NFL MVP 2025top value pick: Tua Tagovailoa (+2500) Tua Time looked unstoppable early in the 2023 season, but eventually mounting injuries to Miami's skill-position players started to quell the momentum. Still, Tagovailoa silenced the critics who questioned if he could enjoy sustained full-season succe s without hitting the injury list. The fourth-year QB from 'Bama led the NFL in pa sing yards (4,624) and finished with 29 pa sing TDs. He maintained a completion rate of well over 69 percent and a QB rating of over 101, and he helped elite wideout Tyreek Hill finish runner-up in Offensive Player of the Year voting. Unfortunately for Tua, Hill's freakish ability to gash defenses in a split second took away from his QB's chances at taking home MVP honors. It was Cheetah who finished sixth in MVP voting, while Tua didn't even finish in the top 10 (the 14 interceptions probably didn't help, nor did losing the division to Buffalo in the waning weeks of the season). If the Dolphins' offense can stay healthy acro s the board next season, Tua seems like a fantastic value at 25-1. He's entering his age-26 season, when stud QBs often hit their prime, and he has a brilliant coach with a big chip on his shoulder in Mike McDaniel. We won't be surprised in the least if Tagovailoa wins MVP, coming full circle from his concu sion-ravaged 2022 season. Another solid MVP value pick:Matthew Stafford (+2000) NFL MVP 2025 best sleeper: Kirk Cousins (+3500) How are we still sleeping on Cousins? Sure, he's rehabbing a torn Achilles that he sustained in Week 8 of the 2023 season, but has the man given us any indication he won't battle back to full strength and return to dominance? All he does is perform, and his play through eight games last season was arguably his best ever. Seriously, look at his per-game stats before you scoff. He averaged an NFL-best 291.4 pa sing yards per game, which only got one-upped by Browns' Comeback Player of the Year Joe Flacco in his magical last five games of the season. He threw 2.3 TDs per game, which also ranked second to only Flacco. He was on pace for 38 TDs and 4,953 yards, which both would have easily led the NFL. If Minnesota can retain the services of Cousins and extend superstar receiver Justin Jefferson, the sky's the limit. The Vikings also have stud tight end T.J. Hockenson and speedster Jordan Addison, the former of whom looked like the best TE in the league when healthy and the latter of whom served as one of the most electric rookie wideouts of the 2023 campaign. A modest wager on Cousins for MVP at +3500 makes sense, but we totally understand if you just want to bet him to win Comeback Player of the Year once those odds go live. Another high-value MVP sleeper: Jared Goff, Lions (+4000) NFL MVP 2025favorite long shot: Baker Mayfield (+6600) One year after Dan Canales turned Geno Smith into a Pro Bowl QB in Seattle, the QB coach-turned-offensive coordinator transformed Baker Mayfield from a journeyman to a Pro Bowler and division-winning QB. If Tampa can hold onto star wideout Mike Evans and improve its offensive line a bit, there's no reason why the former No. 1 pick should have odds this long. Even with Canales departing for Carolina to begin his head-coaching career, the Bucs have plenty of promise offensively. Mayfield just finished with over 4,000 pa sing yards, 28 pa sing TDs, and 10 interceptions despite Tampa battling injuries almost all season. We wouldn't go betting $100 here, but there's no shame in dropping a $10 lotto-ticket wager and jumping for joy later if you hit a $670 jackpot. Another decent long shot: Christian McCaffrey (+10000) John Brebbia Jersey
