NFL futures: Two Washington Commanders bets to make

Two future bets on the Commanders

Jayden Daniels to win Rookie of the Year (+550 DraftKings)

Daniels price to win Offensive Rookie of the Year has been getting shorter, and the second overall pick is second in the market behind Caleb Williams.

We love this price on Daniels, who could come out of the gates hot with his dual-threat ability. The 2023 Heisman winner showed his strength and accuracy in the pocket in LSU last season, while also showcasing the explosive nature of his running style.

Washington is sure to allow him to do what he does best, and he has the chance to be the most-talked-about-rookie in this class as the season goes on.

Washington has quality pass-catchers to ease Daniels's transition to the league, and we're excited to see what he can do.

Over 6.5 wins (-115 FanDuel)

We've gone on record saying the Commanders are a team to watch in the NFC futures market. We're not saying they can make a deep postseason run, but we do think they can flirt with a Wild Card spot.

In such a world, it makes sense we'd back their win total here at just 6.5. The Commanders went 4-13 last year, but with a new coach in Dan Quinn who will shore up the defense and a new shiny QB in Daniels, get ready for some fun Washington games.

The Commanders have some winnable games on their schedule against Arizona, Carolina, Pittsburgh, Tennessee, and New Orleans, and they're usually good to steal a few NFC East games. Give us the over here.
