Shough is 25-1 to win Offensive Rookie of the Year

With all the rookie hype going into the year it’s been really underwhelming. Had the pats started running Henderson earlier it’s probably not close but if Shough wins out I think he steals it.

Damn where did you see 25-1? I took him at 16-1 yesterday

DK, I’m thinking about taking Shough at +2500 and then also Henderson at +185 as a hedge

Henderson +185
Egbuka +205
McMillan +250
Dart +550
Warren +1500
Shough +2500

With Dart having Minn, LV & Dal left vs Shough having NYJ, Tenn & Atl; you could easily expect Dart to go 1-2 & Shough to go 3-0. That would have to automatically flip those 2 amongst the voters. Which would put Shough top 5 with only 9 starts, may even get top 3.

With the way he's playing, looks like it's Henderson's to lose. Maybe Egbuka or McMillan could do enough over the last 3 games to steal it.

It's a weak year for ROY candidates. Henderson is the favorite because he's playing well and on one of the top teams. But if that slows a bit AND the Saints win the last 3, with Shough playing really well in them, that could move the needle. Winning the last 3 would mean Shough took over a 1-7 team and went 6-3 as a starter. That would at least get some attention.
