• Cleveland Browns to win the AFC North (+425): The Browns have made some big offseason additions to an already stacked roster on paper, yet they continue to move in the wrong direction in the betting market.

• Will Anderson Jr. UNDER 8.25 sacks (-110): Just two seasons over the past decade have produced multiple rookies with 8.5 or more sacks, and only nine total first-year players have reached the mark in those 10 seasons.

• Seattle Seahawks OVER 8.5 wins (-130): There are a plethora of reasons for optimism about Seattle's chances to reach nine wins and even win the NFC West.

Cleveland Browns to win AFC North (+425)

This price has continued to move in what we believe to be the wrong direction all offseason long, with the current price at DraftKings of +425 longer than we’ve seen it at any point despite the most recent transaction in the AFC North being the Browns acquiring edge defender Za’Darius Smith from the Minnesota Vikings. Smith had 10 more pressures in 2022 (76 total) than every edge defender on the Browns not named Myles Garrett combined, and free-agent addition Ogbonnia Okoronkwo provides Cleveland the flexibility to kick Smith inside in certain situations.
