When you have led the NFL in passing in four of seven seasons, it's natural that your name would appear near the top of passing yardage odds each season.

Hence, it's perfectly natural to see Drew Brees at 4/1 at online sportsbook Bovada, as they announced their passing yard props, receiving yard props and rushing yard props for 2013.

The New Orleans pivot has surpassed 5,000 yards the past two seasons. A trio of gunslingers are close behind him and those with NFL betting tips on profiting from props can tell you all of them are legitimate threats.

Aaron Rodgers has never led the league in passing, but he is a 6/1 bet this year. Matthew Stafford in Detroit is 13/2 and perennial MVP threat Peyton Manning is fourth at 7/1.

Tom Brady is 12/1 and he led the NFL in passing in 2005 and 2007.

On the rushing yardage props, the NFL odds focus on reigning MVP Adrian Peterson. He is 11/4, comfortably ahead of Seattle's Marshawn Lynch at 7/1.
