2011 NFL Draft: Super Bowl XLVI Odds, Rookie-Related Odds

By David Fucillo@davidfucillo May 4, 2011, 4:01pm PDT

The folks at Bodog released some new odds for the 2011 season, including updated Super Bowl XLVI odds (all posted after the jump). The Super Bowl odds did not change significantly because of the lack of current player trades leading up to and during this year's NFL Draft. The 49ers remain 40/1 and the only change in the division involved the Seahawks moving from 85/1 to 80/1. Given what I thought was a less than stellar draft, I'm a bit surprised there odds would actually improve.

The more interesting odds for our purposes would include those for Defensive Rookie of the Year. The odds-on favorite is Patrick Peterson at 6/1. Aldon Smith came in at a pretty decent 12/1 behind Peterson, Von Miller, Nick Fairley, Marcell Dareus, Jimmy Smith and Prince Amukamara.

It's a hard bet to make in advance of any free agent maneuvers. If the 49ers were to let Manny Lawson walk, Smith's odds of winning would have to get better since he would be getting that much more playing time. It's hard to make that bet even if you knew one way or the other, but if he was getting some serious playing time in Vic Fangio's blitzing scheme, what's to stop him from a legit shot at rookie of the year?
