ESPN analysts reveal top prop bets for the 2026 NFL rookie class, featuring odds from Draft Kings. Jeremiyah Love, selected third overall by the Cardinals out of Notre Dame, is favored to exceed 774.5 rushing yards (-110). Despite a high ankle sprain limiting his preseason, Eric Moody notes seven of the last eight first-round running backs cleared this mark. Matt Bowen projects Love as a three-down playmaker comparable to Jahmyr Gibbs, with Mike Clay forecasting 1,119 rushing yards and 7 touchdowns plus 486 receiving yards.

Carnell Tate (+600) is the pick for Offensive Rookie of the Year. Liz Loza highlights the Ohio State product's pro-readiness as Tennessee's alpha receiver alongside Wan'Dale Robinson in Brian Daboll's scheme. Bowen projects Tate for 1,023 yards and 4 TDs on 75 catches.

On defense, Rueben Bain Jr. (+450) and Caleb Downs (+700) contend for Defensive Rookie of the Year. Bain, a Miami Hurricanes product, fits Todd Bowles' Tampa Bay scheme with 5.6 projected sacks. Downs anchors the Dallas Cowboys defense, offering high visibility per Joe Fortenbaugh.
