When should you bet on the NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year?

If you are betting on Defensive Rookie of the Year favorites, you should place bets closer to the start of the season — that way you will keep funds in your account for an extra couple of months.

When placing a future bet like the 2024 NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year, an important concept to understand is the time value of money, the concept that money is worth more now than the same sum will be worth in the future due to its earning potential in the interim.

Wagering now comes at an opportunity cost as the 2024 NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year bet will not be graded until February 2024, tying up funds wagered for nine months.

Does this concept mean no Defensive Rookie of the Year bets should be made until closer to the season? No, the offseason is a great time to identify mispriced higher-odds players that could have their odds shift significantly with roster changes. Also, the players with higher odds reduce the time value effect as the potential payout is higher.
