Bovada.lv have released their early prop bets for the Vikings and some of them could be very favorable for individuals hoping to make a little extra cash while betting on their favorite team this year.

Offensive Rookie of the Year – Dalvin Cook (+700)

Leonard Fournette is the favorite to win the award in early voting with Chrisitan McCaffrey and DeShaun Watson rounding out the top 3. However, Cook is in the #4 position. Since Minnesota will likely use a committee attack out of the backfield, this probably isn’t the best bet for gamblers.

2017 record – 8.5 wins (+/- 115)

The good news here is that the betting giant sees the Vikings as an above average team this year and that they will improve upon their record from last year. The bad news is that this makes for a challenging betting line. Still, there is a pretty solid chance that Minnesota is at least a 9 win team this year, so taking the over might be a better bet.
