2021 NFL Most Valuable Player Longshots

 History proves that the highest profile quarterbacks in the NFL are also the ones most likely to win each season's honor as the Most Valuable Player.

Aaron Rodgers won his third-career MVP award last season as quarterback for the Green Bay Packers. The season before, Baltimore Ravens QB Lamar Jackson took top honors. Patrick Mahomes won the first of what should be multiple MVP trophies over the course of his career as quarterback of the Kansas City Chiefs in 2019. Tom Brady took home his third career MVP award in 2018 while playing for the New England Patriots.

With more that a few veteran quarterbacks changing teams this offseason along with five new quarterbacks taken in the first round of the draft, there is some value to be found in this year's NFL futures to win MVP for the 2021 season.

According to BetOnline sportsbook, Mahomes is the favorite to win at +500. Second on that list at +900 odds is Rodgers. Josh Allen with the Buffalo Bills is a +1000 third-favorite as one of the up-and-coming QB's in the league.

As part of my weekly NFL coverage for the popular sports betting site, ScoresandStats.com, I dug deeper into the betting futures for 2021 NFL MVP to come up with three players that offer quite a bit of betting value at much longer odds.
