Offensive Rookie of the Year Trends

Here are some recent trends to know before betting on the award:

• Dak Prescott (2016) is the only QB to win the award in the last six years
• RBs have won the award each of the last two seasons and in four of the last six seasons
• Anytime the OROY award has gone to RBs in consecutive years, it has never stopped at just two – RBs claimed the award from 1971-1975, 1977-1982, 1986-1991, 1993-1997, and 1999-2002
• Dan Marino is the only QB to win OROY with less than 12 starts in his rookie season
• The award has gone to a player from the NFC in 12 straight seasons – Vince Young in 2006 is the last AFC player to win it
• The Vikings have the most OROY winners with five; there are nine teams who have never had an OROY winner: Baltimore Ravens, Cleveland Browns, Houston Texans, Jacksonville Jaguars, Kansas City Chiefs, New York Jets, Philadelphia Eagles, San Francisco 49ers, and Seattle Seahawks
• No TE or offensive lineman has ever won the award

Top Contenders at Each Position

• QBs
• RBs
• WRs
• TEs

Three tight ends have opened with odds to win the award, and TJ Hockenson and Noah Fant – both selected in the first round – are listed at +1200 and +2000, respectively. These are very short odds considering no TE has ever won the award.

Josh Jacobs was the only RB selected in the first round and is the only rookie running back who enters the season with a clear lead role in his respective offense. David Montgomery, Miles Sanders, and Devin Singletary have emerged as contenders, as well.

Kyler Murray will almost certainly start the entire 2019 season for the Arizona Cardinals, which explains why his odds are so short. But with Daniel Jones getting the nod for the Giants in Week 3, the sixth-overall pick has vaulted up the board.
