The 2022 NFL Draft class, while known for its defensive talent, offers several promising candidates for Offensive Rookie of the Year (OROTY). Here are the top betting options to consider:

Drake London, Atlanta Falcons (+700)

• First wide receiver selected in Round 1
• Clear WR1 role following Calvin Ridley's suspension
• Immediate target share with either Marcus Mariota or Desmond Ridder
• Second-best odds behind Kenny Pickett

Skyy Moore, Kansas City Chiefs (+1200)

• Landed in ideal situation with Patrick Mahomes and Andy Reid
• Benefits from Tyreek Hill's departure
• Will see significant playing time in multiple-receiver sets
• Strong value at current odds despite being a Round 2 pick

Isaiah Spiller, Los Angeles Chargers (+8000)

• Valuable long-shot bet at running back
• Will back up Austin Ekeler but likely get meaningful touches
• Could see goal-line and short-yardage work
• High upside if Ekeler gets injured
• Playing in one of NFL's top offenses

Historical context shows winning OROTY often leads to NFL stardom, as demonstrated by recent winners Ja'Marr Chase and Justin Herbert. With the heavy emphasis on wide receivers in this draft class, expect strong competition for the award, particularly from pass-catchers in favorable situations.
