Today, we’re breaking down the best value picks for division winners. Choosing division champs is one of the smartest ways to turn a small wager into a big payday. These three teams stand out as strong value plays for sports pickers.

Minnesota Vikings: NFC North (+280)

The Vikings caught a lot of people off guard in 2024, finishing 14-3 and falling just one game short of a division title. This year, they return a defense that ranked fifth in points allowed, second in rushing yards allowed, and third in fewest 10-plus yard runs. They also signed Jonathan Allen to a three-year, $60 million contract to strengthen an already strong front.

On offense, the Vikings are moving forward with second-year quarterback JJ McCarthy, replacing Sam Darnold. McCarthy, the 10th overall pick in 2024, missed last season due to a torn meniscus in the preseason. Now fully healthy, he should elevate the offense. He will have plenty of help, with a stacked wide receiver room and the addition of Jordan Mason in the backfield to handle short-yardage and goal-line situations.

With improvements on both sides of the ball, the Vikings offer strong value at +280 to win the NFC North.

Kansas City Chiefs: AFC West (-110)

Another strong NFL pick is the Kansas City Chiefs to win the AFC West. Kansas City has won the division nine years in a row, and there is no real reason to expect that streak to end anytime soon.

The team’s biggest offseason move was signing offensive tackle Jaylon Moore to a two-year deal. While Moore served mostly as a backup in San Francisco, he brings depth and experience to an offensive line that struggled at times last season.

The Chiefs kept most of their core intact from a team that went 15-2 in 2024. On defense, Chris Jones remains one of the most dominant linemen in the league. In the secondary, Trent McDuffie is one of the top corners in the NFL. 

Offensively, they return superstar quarterback Patrick Mahomes and a loaded group of skill players, including Rashee Rice, Travis Kelce, Xavier Worthy, and Hollywood Brown. Isiah Pacheco is back from an injury that slowed him last year, and he will split time with Kareem Hunt, who signed to return to Kansas City this offseason. Rookie wideouts Breshard Smith and Jalen Royals could also impact what might be the most dangerous offense in the league.

Los Angeles Rams: NFC West (+180)

The Rams come into the season with the second-best odds to win the NFC West, trailing only the 49ers. That makes them one of the better value NFL picks among division winners. Los Angeles returns much of the team that won the division last year with a 10-7 record.

Most experts predicted the defense would fall apart after Aaron Donald retired at the end of the 2023 season. Instead, the Rams ended up around the middle of the pack in key categories like points and yards allowed. The defense lacks big-name talent, but their committee approach worked and should continue to keep them competitive.

On offense, the Rams could be among the best in the NFL. They signed Davante Adams in the offseason, pairing him with rising star Puka Nacua. That duo is easily the top three in the league. Veteran quarterback Matthew Stafford may be aging, but with weapons like Adams, Nacua, running back Kyren Williams, and rookie tight end Terrance Ferguson, this offense has serious upside.
