All comments welcome, lots of the high street firms are quoting prices already.

All prices below are with firms that also offer place terms.

3/1 Calvin Johnson looks a Great price if Josh Gordon's suspension is held up. Value for me is Julio Jones 10/1 and a big outsider Desean Jackson 50/1.

4/1 Adrian Peterson again looks Great price. Value for me Alfred Morris I see one firm goes 12/1 and a big outsider Toby Gerhart 66/1

Now for the hardest market of all.

Peyton Manning and Drew Brees 2/1 each, no thanks. My pick here is Aaron Rodgers at 8/1. Value Tom Brady 20/1 and a big outsider Nick Foles 50/1.

Have asked BF to put these markets up again. Wow cant wait for NFL to start up again.

Hi LL

On the passing market Manning and Brees are 11/4 and 7/2 respectively with PP.  Rodgers is also biggest with them at 10/1.

I have backed the first 2 and covered on Rodgers. I think Drew is the one overpriced at 7/2 and bet accordingly. The market has been up and unchanged for about 3 weeks now.

Agree on AP although 4/1 is hard to get. 3/1 is the main price and I'm waiting to see if anyone puts up four places before betting ew.

Good luck.

Passing - I see no value in anyone aside from Brees/Rodgers. Brees @ 7/2 is a steal. Manning has less weapons this year, and Brees has more. I would go 10 units on Brees to win 35, and 5 on Rodgers to win 50. 20 unit profit minimum if either win.

Rushing - AP @ 4/1 is good. The issue is threefold though - passing style manager, injury worries, more WR weapons. Morris @ 12/1 is daft. If he gets it i will be super shocked. You go where the sense is, for pure rushing yards, McCoy/Charles/AP/Foster.

I would do an outside bet on Arian Foster this year. If he is healthy he can beast this.

Receiving - CJ has a bad knee again. Doesnt stop him much. I like Julio Jones here @ 10/1. For outside bets Jeremy Maclin, Deymarius Thomas and Julian Edelman get my vote.

eejit101 I cant see how Morris at 12/1 is daft? Finished 4th last season and 2nd the season before with enough yds to have won it the following season. NFL Offence is a myriad of opinions. Morris was 50 carries short of the season before because Redskins O stank the place up. A healthy RG111 and a standout crop of WRs means I believe the Redskins O will stay on the field much longer, deeper drives, so more carries and less 8 man fronts! Obviously being a Redskins fan for 33 years I wear rose tinted spectacles but I think I put up some valid points.

Thing strength of schedule should also be taken into account especially for P Manning.

Being 4th is fine, but he totalled 1275 yards. His new offence is more pass happy, and RG3 is running again. Lets say they rush for a decent 2,500 as a team. Backups take 500 yards. WRs take 200 yards. RG3 gets say 700 yards. That leaves 1,100 yards for Morris. I just cant see a team with these options going ground heavy with no screens or QB designed runs. All leading rushers come from teams where the QB cant run.

I don't see RG111 being allowed to run, he is the most valuable player in the league draft wise, hell did we pay 2 or 3 1st rnd picks to get him. He gets banged up again and the 1st year coach is in big trouble. Quick routes a few long bombs and maybe lots of dump offs to the flat. I see Vikings and Eagles as passing more this season. Have to admit I do like Foster as well. The beauty is we wont know for sure tell week 17 of the season.

Your issue with that is its a bit wrong. The coaches and at Training have implimented lots of new read option plays and designed runs. They are touting RG3 for 750+ rush yards. Its how they got to the post season, and its why they traded up for #1 pick.

No point in going for that kind of QB if he doesnt run with it. Everything at Wash OTAs and Preseason should point to more runs for RG3.

I do like Morris... but he wont get rushing title. Foster is my random bet.

Hills are priced up and go 4 places in the leading rusher market. AP is top priced 4/1 with them us well. Large ew bet placed.

Good luck with all your bets guys.

Does anyone know if any of the firms will let you do doubles and trebles on these markets?

You will struggle to do that on line.   Maybe you can write out perms on a slip and place it in a shop?
