Now that we NFL betting<\/a> fans have read up on training camps and caught a few exhibition games, it\u2019s time to make a few educated guesses about player yardage. Who will lead the NFL in passing, rushing and receiving yards? Odds are courtesy of BetUs.com.<\/p>\n

Shea Matthews picks are in bold. <\/strong><\/p>\n

MOST PASSING YARDS<\/strong><\/p>\n

Drew Brees +375<\/p>\n

Peyton Manning +450<\/p>\n

Matt Schaub +500<\/p>\n

Aaron Rodgers +450<\/p>\n

Tom Brady +650<\/p>\n

Tony Romo +900<\/p>\n

Philip Rivers +1000<\/p>\n

Jay Cutler +1800<\/strong><\/p>\n

Brett Favre +2000<\/p>\n

Kevin Kolb +2000<\/p>\n

Safe pick: <\/strong>Drew Brees. The Saints air it out every year and he always hangs near the league leaders in passing yards.<\/p>\n

Boom: <\/strong>Jay Cutler. If Mike Martz made Jon Kitna into a 4,000-yard guy in Detroit, imagine what he\u2019ll do with Cutler\u2019s talents in Chicago. The Bears may not win us money at the sportsbook<\/a> but they\u2019ll throw like mad.<\/p>\n

Bust: <\/strong>Philip Rivers. Losing your top receiver and left tackle means you\u2019ll throw for fewer yards, plain and simple.<\/p>\n

Sleeper: <\/strong>Kevin Kolb. Eagles coach Andy Reid has the most lopsided pass-to-run ratio in NFL history.<\/p>\n

MOST RUSHING YARDS<\/strong><\/p>\n

Chris Johnson +300<\/strong><\/p>\n

Adrian Peterson +500<\/p>\n

Frank Gore +600<\/p>\n

Ray Rice +800<\/p>\n

Michael Turner +800<\/p>\n

Maurice Jones-Drew +1000<\/p>\n

Steven Jackson +1400<\/p>\n

Shonn Green +1400<\/p>\n

DeAngelo Williams +2000<\/p>\n

Rashard Mendenhall +2000<\/p>\n

Safe pick: <\/strong>Adrian Peterson. A 1,500-yard season qualifies as an \u201coff\u201d year for him. He\u2019s a machine.<\/p>\n

Boom: <\/strong>Chris Johnson. The little guy is an injury risk but there isn\u2019t a more explosive back in football. He\u2019s a force when it comes to yardage.<\/p>\n

Bust: <\/strong>Steven Jackson. He\u2019s talented as can be but his big body takes far too many hits. He\u2019s no lock to play 16 games.<\/p>\n

Sleeper: <\/strong>Rashard Mendenhall. Greene could be a sleeper too but Mendenhall will get more touches since Ben Roethlisberger is suspended and Greene will give way to LaDainian Tomlinson on third down.<\/p>\n

MOST RECEIVING YARDS<\/strong><\/p>\n

Andre Johnson +400<\/strong><\/p>\n

Miles Austin +900<\/p>\n

Larry Fitzgerald +900<\/p>\n

Randy Moss +900<\/p>\n

Reggie Wayne +900<\/p>\n

Roddy White +1000<\/p>\n

Calvin Johnson +1000<\/p>\n

Greg Jennings +1200<\/p>\n

Marques Colston +1500<\/p>\n

Brandon Marshall +2000<\/p>\n

Safe pick: <\/strong>Reggie Wayne. He never gets hurt and plays in a passing offense that dominates like clockwork every year.<\/p>\n

Boom: <\/strong>Andre Johnson. He\u2019s a potent combination of speed and sure-handedness. He gets the ball a ton every game and has posted back-to-back 1,500-yard seasons.<\/p>\n

Bust: <\/strong>Marques Colston. He has the lowest ceiling of this group by far since New Orleans spreads the ball out so much.<\/p>\n

Sleeper: <\/strong>Calvin Johnson. Megatron already posted big numbers in some anemic Detroit offenses. What will he do now that the Lions look like they could field an above-average attack? Scary for sports betting<\/a> sharps to imagine.<\/p>\n
