Teams With Biggest Additions and Subtractions During NFL Free Agency

by WagerHome Blog on March 31, 2020

As much of the world remains on lockdown because of the coronavirus crisis, most of the sports world sits dark. But that does not mean that there isn’t anything to bet, or any major sports making news.

The NFL’s new league year kicked off two weeks ago, and several teams have gotten better, while some teams have gotten worse.

Biggest Additions

Arizona Cardinals

Kenyan Drake and Larry Fitzgerald are staying put, which is a big win for the Cardinals. But the coup de grace came when Arizona traded away David Johnson (expendable because of Drake) for one of the best wide receivers in football, DeAndre Hopkins.

Quarterback Kyler Murray now has all the weapons he needs to really show how good he can be.

Miami Dolphins

Loaded with draft capital and cap space, and sensing a change in the landscape of the AFC East, the Dolphins have been major buyers at the start of this offseason. Cornerback Byron Jones, linebacker Kyle Van Noy, and defensive end Shaq Lawson are the biggest names Miami has added.

The Dolphins also have three first-round draft picks and two in the second, so plenty more solid additions are on the way.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Volume-wise the Bucs have been rather tame, as just one significant addition has been signed by Tampa Bay. But it’s the name of names, the biggest prize ever to hit free agency, five-time Super Bowl champion Tom Brady.

One thing is certain – the Bucs will not see 30 interceptions from their quarterback next season. A tough NFC South just got that much tougher.

Biggest Subtractions

Houston Texans

Houston Texans fans don’t want to be reminded of it anymore, but they have been the biggest losers of any team so far. Not only did they send away their young quarterback’s favorite weapon in Hopkins, but they got almost no value in return.

The Vikings got a much better haul when they traded away wide receiver Stefon Diggs this offseason. And considering Houston doesn’t draft until the 57th pick, this offseason isn’t getting any better.

Los Angeles Rams

The 2018 NFC Champions will go into 2020 just a shell of their former selves. Gone are Todd Gurley, Clay Matthews, Dante Fowler, and Corey Littleton.

It’s hard to believe, but the Rams might actually be only the fourth-most talented team in their division following the slew of cap casualties. They also won’t draft until 52nd overall, so very little young and inexpensive help is on the way.

Pay Per Head Software

If you are thinking about becoming your own bookmaker and taking NFL draft bets or futures bets on the upcoming NFL season, or a full slate of game bets when sports start up again, WagerHome.com offers you four free weeks of pay per head service to give it a try.

WagerHome.com is also built for the long haul and is focused on creating partnerships that will be profitable for all parties and last long beyond the current COVID-19 crisis.

Offer eSports Wagering With Our Pay Per Head Service While Coronavirus Strikes

by WagerHome Blog on March 26, 2020

This is indeed an interesting time in the sports betting industry. Arenas sit empty. On what was supposed to be Opening Day this week for Major League Baseball, the start of the season is an unknown.

And the Stanley Cup Playoffs, one of the most exciting events for sports bettors across North America, is still at least two months away.

This is where WagerHome.com exceeds the other pay per head services out there. This is where you, as a bookmaking partner of WagerHome.com, are better positioned to not only survive the current pause in major sporting events but still remain profitable.

And that is because WagerHome.com has embraced the world of eSports, and put it front and center in the sports still competing that you can now offer your clients.

eSports is one of the fastest-growing sports around the world, and betting on eSports is growing just as fast. Leagues around the world, weekly tournaments, the ESL Pro League, which has gone worldwide with Counter-Strike: Global Offensive. All of it is still happening, and all of it is available to wager.

Why Choose a Pay Per Head Software Service

You have a group of loyal clients who place their bets through you. But at some point, you need to offer them the convenience of online and mobile access to their accounts. They deserve the latest and most up to date odds. They require the ability to place bets at all hours of the day and for events taking place around the world.

When you partner with a PPH software provider, all of the above is yours and at no extra work to you. A personalized website is included. A customer support team is there for your clients. Fast and reliable mobile access that allows your clients access to live wagering. A safe and secure means of handling the financial side of their accounts.

You wouldn’t be able to offer any of that as a one-person operation. But with PPH software, which costs just a nominal fee per person, all of it is yours, and all of it is your clients’.

Why WagerHome.com

Unlike with other PPH providers, WagerHome.com takes no ownership of your business. The website remains yours. Your clients remain yours. And most importantly, your profits remain yours. Other PPH sites take their cut and maintain the rights to the website. That doesn’t happen at WagerHome.com

And while the industry figures out how to navigate through these previously uncharted times, and many other PPH sites are finding it easiest just to close, WagerHome.com remains open for business and committed to maintaining its partnership with you.

WagerHome believes in building long-term relationships with its partner bookmakers and finding ways to help them unlock new streams of revenue during the COVID-19 crisis.

And when this crisis does pass, and the sports world returns to normal, you will have a major leg up on the rest of the competition.

NFL Free Agency Updated Betting Odds

by WagerHome Blog on March 24, 2020

While other sports are taking some time off because of the coronavirus, the NFL is full speed ahead with its free-agent season. The carousel of quarterbacks has made for interesting news, a welcome distraction from the rest of the news of the world, and is having a ripple effect on the odds for the upcoming NFL season.

Tom Brady to the Buccaneers

Not since Peyton Manning went to the Broncos have we seen a Hall of Fame lock change teams so late in his career. And while the Brady signing is sure to have an effect on the bottom line in Tampa Bay, it’s also improving their championship chances in the eyes of oddsmakers.

The Buccaneers are now +1200 to win the Super Bowl, which are the fifth-best odds in the league.

Philip Rivers to the Colts

The long-time Chargers quarterback doesn’t have nearly the resume that Brady boasts, but his signing in Indianapolis is giving betters a reason to give the Colts a second look.

The line for total wins is now 8.5 for the Colts, and their Super Bowl odds sit at +3000, putting them ahead of division rival Houston.

DeAndre Hopkins to the Cardinals

A big reason why the Colts are now ranked ahead of the Texans is the trade of DeAndre Hopkins. That move alone dropped Houston from +3300 to +4000 to win the Super Bowl.

So it wasn’t just you scratching your head about the move – all of Las Vegas was too.

As for the Cardinals, who have improved the offense around second-year quarterback Kyler Murray, they are now +4000 to win the Super Bowl, which is improved from +6600 before the trade.

Nick Foles to the Bears

Three years in, and it’s clear that Mitchell Trubisky is not going to be the franchise quarterback the Bears thought he was. But if Las Vegas is any indication, Nick Foles isn’t either.

The Bears’ odds have actually dropped to +3300 since the trade.

Although Foles’ old team, the Jaguars, have been completely written off since both Foles and Calais Campbell left town. They are now +10000 to win the Super Bowl, which is tied for dead last with the Redskins and Bengals.

Pay Per Head and Coronavirus

With live sports on hold for the foreseeable future, this may not feel like the best time to sign up with a pay per head bookmaking service. But while other shops are closing up, or looking ways to squeeze their customers to maximize their revenue, WagerHome.com is working with its clients to find new and creative ways for everyone to stay profitable – like free-agent wagering, as an example.

For bookmakers out on their own, this is a very uncertain time in the sports betting business. But bookmakers that have teamed up with WagerHome.com have a long-term partner to help steer them through these previously uncharted waters.

And when the dust does settle, and sports do resume, they will have a reliable teammate they can trust.

2020 Masters Up For Grabs With Tons Of Potential Winners

by WagerHome Blog on March 12, 2020

The 2020 Masters will have its annual event at Augusta National Golf Club on April 9. This prestigious golfing event puts a mark on anyone’s golfing resume and puts your name among some of the best golfers.

Best 10 Golfers By World Ranking

This outstanding list of golfers is one I like to study to compare and contrast each golfer for the Masters tournament betting. This gives a rough estimate of how each golfer compares against the rest of the competition.

These golfers continue to play consistently well enough to make the top 10 in the official world golf ranking list. I like to view this as a beginning point for looking at the Masters tournament odds.

The top 10 currently are:

Rory McIlroy (Northern Ireland)
Jon Rahm (Spain)
Brooks Koepka (USA)
Justin Thomas (USA)
Dustin Johnson (USA)
Patrick Cantlay (USA)
Adam Scott (Australia)
Webb Simpson (USA)
Patrick Reed (USA)
Tommy Fleetwood (England)

* rankings are subject to change

2020 Masters Odds

The following 10 golfers are predicted to have the best odds at winning the 2020 Masters:

Rory McIlroy 15-2
Tiger Woods 10-1
Jon Rahm 11-1
Brooks Koepka 12-1
Dustin Johnson 14-1
Justin Thomas 14-1
Patrick Cantlay 22-1
Xander Schauffele 22-1
Jordan Spieth 27-1
Tony Finau 29-1

* odds are subject to change

Best Three Golfers That Could Win

Rory Mcllroy: Mcllroy is the current overall best golfer according to the rankings. Since his 2019 play, he has been on an excellent run this far into the season. Last year he placed 21st at the Masters, so he will definitely be looking to improve from then.

Dustin Johnson: Dustin Johnson is the fifth-ranked golfer and has a knack for playing well around the Masters. Last year, he tied for second at the Masters and performed very well to earn that spot. He has two top 10 finishes this year, and you can expect him to perform well during the Masters tournament.

Xander Schauffele: The 26-year-old is the 12th best golfer in the world. He has a great scoring average per round of 69.55. In 2019 he also tied for second at the Masters, and a lot of people expect him to play well again this time around.

Potential Winner of the Masters

Rory Mcllroy has had the hot hand for this 2020 season. I believe he will be able to finally get a well-deserved green jacket this year at the Masters.

Betting on the Big Ten Tournament May Be a Wild Ride in 2020

by WagerHome Blog on March 10, 2020

March is one of the most exciting times in the sports betting industry, and it is a great time to start your own pay per head site. If you have ever dreamed of being your own bookie, then starting things up before the start of March Madness could be very beneficial to you.

If this is something that interests you, then visiting WagerHome.com is a great first step in achieving your goal. WagerHome.com has all of the tools needed to help launch your own pay per head site and become a bookie.

With that in mind, let’s also take a look at the upcoming Big Ten Tournament set to take place in Indianapolis. The Big Ten Conference is widely considered one of the best leagues in the country, and the Big Ten Tournament could be a wild ride.

The Top Four Seeds

There was a three-way tie for the conference title during the regular season, with a fourth team right behind the pack. Wisconsin, Michigan State, and Maryland all finished the regular season with a 14-6 record in conference play, but it will be the Wisconsin Badgers who are the top seed.

Illinois finished the regular season with a record of 13-7, and it is slated to take on the Badgers in the semifinals. Michigan State and Maryland might be two of the best teams in the country, and they could square off in the semifinals of the Big Ten Tournament.

These four teams should all have a say in who wins the tournament, but there are plenty of other teams ready to pull off an upset.

Best of the Rest

There was a four-way tie for fifth place in the Big Ten as well, which shows just how loaded this conference is. Iowa, Ohio State, Penn State, and Rutgers all finished the regular season with a record of 11-9, and they are all locks to make the NCAA Tournament.

Losing nine games during the conference season might seem like a lot, but all four of these teams have all been ranked for much of the season. Don’t be surprised to see one of these teams cutting down the nets in Indianapolis.

Our Predictions

The tournament kicks off on Wednesday with a pair of games. Minnesota should beat Northwestern, and Indiana will take care of Nebraska.

On Thursday, ninth-seeded Michigan will pull off a slight upset over eighth-seeded Rutgers, and fifth-seeded Iowa will easily dispatch Minnesota. The seven seed, Ohio State, beats Purdue, while sixth-seeded Penn State beats Indiana.

That takes us to the quarterfinal round, and this is where things should get fun. Don’t be shocked if Michigan upsets No. 1 Wisconsin on Friday morning. The second game will feature Iowa and Illinois, who just played a thriller in the regular-season finale.

Michigan State and Ohio State also went toe to toe on Sunday, and they will meet up in the quarterfinals, and Maryland and Penn State have a great rivalry.

Let’s take Michigan and Illinois to the semifinals on Saturday, along with Maryland and Michigan State. At this point, it’s really too close to call, and it could go either way. There is also a chance that it could be four different teams in the semifinals.

The Big Ten Conference tournament is going to be a wild ride, and fans should enjoy it.

Spring Training Version: Sleepers and Favorites for 2020 MVP

by WagerHome Blog on March 7, 2020

The 2020 Major League Baseball season is just around the corner, and it’s never too early to speculate on the season’s MVP winners. Let’s take a look at some of the possibilities as we approach the season.

American League

Sleepers

Looking for some sleeper MVP picks? Let’s take a look at a pair of youngsters that could win this award in 2020.

Vladimir Guerrero Jr. +3500: The son of a former MVP, Vlad Jr. is looking to make a name for himself. He burst onto the scene a season ago and should emerge as a top player in the AL in 2020.

Eloy Jimenez +3500: The Chicago White Sox slugger will need to cut down on his strikeouts, but he can really hit. Jimenez could lead the American League in home runs this season.

Favorites

There is one clear favorite, and then several other talented players that are grouped together. Here are the two players with the best odds to win the 2020 MVP.

Mike Trout -110: Surprise, surprise. Mike Trout is the overwhelming favorite to win the AL MVP again. Trout should have a better supporting cast around him, and he remains the most talented player in the game.

Aaron Judge +900: Judge will start the season on the Injured List, but should return early in the season. The Yankees slugger continues to be a huge offensive threat while playing underrated defense in the outfield.

National League

Sleepers

We head to the National League Central Division to find our 2020 MVP sleeper picks.

Kris Bryant +2800: The 2016 National League MVP has struggled over the last few seasons for the Chicago Cubs, and there were plenty of rumors swirling about a trade in the offseason. Bryant is expected to bat leadoff for the Cubs this season, and it feels like a monster bounce-back season is coming for the slugger.

Paul Goldschmidt +3200: The St. Louis Cardinals’ first baseman continues to be one of the most underrated players in the National League, but that is going to change this season. The Cardinals have a great shot of winning the Central Division, and Goldschmidt should get plenty of attention for this award.

Favorites

A pair of former MVP winners lead the way in the National League, although one player is new to the NL.

Mookie Betts +350: The former American League MVP with the Boston Red Sox is now a member of the Los Angeles Dodgers. Mookie Betts will have the benefit of batting in one of the deepest and most talented lineups in baseball, and he should have a monster season. He is also one of the best defensive players in the league. Betts is a solid pick.

Christian Yelich +700: Yelich and the Brewers just agreed to a massive contract extension, and now it will be up to him to earn that money. Yelich was the 2018 MVP in the National League and nearly won the award again a season ago.

There are several advantages of becoming your own bookie and starting your own PPH site. If this is something that interests you, head over to WagerHome.com to get help in starting your own betting site. There is plenty of time to get signed up before the MLB season begins.

Betting Favorites, Dark Horses and Underdogs to win 2020 Masters

by WagerHome Blog on March 5, 2020

We are just over a month away from the 2020 Masters Tournament, which is always one of the highlights on the PGA Tour. The 2019 Masters saw Tiger Woods’ return to glory, and there will be plenty of storylines to watch heading into this year’s event as well.

With that in mind, let’s pick out some favorites, dark horses, and underdogs to bet on at the 2020 Masters.

Favorites

Rory McIlroy +850: McIlroy enters the 2020 Masters Tournament as the current betting favorite, and has also risen to the top-ranked golfer in the world. Despite having a ton of success throughout his professional golf career, McIlroy has never put on the green jacket and won the Masters. McIlroy is off to a great start in 2020, and he will be a golfer to keep your eye on.

Tiger Woods +1000: It’s a surprise that Tiger Woods is not the betting favorite to win the 2020 Masters, despite not playing great golf so far this season. Woods has actually won this tournament four times, and always plays well at Augusta National.

Brooks Koepka +1000: Brooks Koepka saves his best golf for Majors, and he should perform well at the 2020 Masters Tournament. Koepka has won four of the last eight majors he has played in and will be looking to add the Masters Tournament to the list.

Dark Horse Picks

Rickie Fowler +2800: Rickie Fowler might hold the title of “Best Player on the PGA Tour to Never Win a Major.” That is certainly something that Fowler is hoping to change before his career is over, and he would love for it to be at the 2020 Masters. Don’t be surprised to see his name on the leaderboard on the weekend.

Tony Finau +3300: Finau’s most memorable moment at Augusta was dislocating an ankle after making a hole-in-one, but he has also had some great performances in the Masters. Finau is extremely consistent, and he will keep the ball in the fairway, which will give him a chance to post a great score.

Underdogs to Watch

Matt Kuchar +5000: Kuchar is another golfer who has yet to win a Major, but he does have a history of playing well at Augusta National. Kuchar finished in a tie for third place back in 2012 and has been in contention on the weekend in a few other starts.

Jim Furyk +10000: Jim Furyk has 17 wins on the PGA Tour in his career, and he has a history of playing well in the first few days of Major Tournaments. He is well past his prime, but there is always a chance that he can put it all together for an entire weekend again.

Five Teams to Beat in Upcoming NCAA Tournament

by WagerHome Blog on March 3, 2020

We are less than two weeks away from “Selection Sunday,” and that means the start of one of the greatest sporting events in the country. The NCAA Tournament always delivers some excitement and unexpected results, but some top teams will make a run as well.

Here is a look at five teams to beat in the upcoming NCAA Tournament.

Kansas Jayhawks

The Kansas Jayhawks are led by point guard Devon Dotson and monster center Udoka Azubuike. Kansas is once again emerging as the cream of the crop in the Big 12 Conference, and it is always a threat to win the NCAA Tournament.

This Kansas team does struggle to shoot the ball at times, but their All-American center can carry this team. Teams won’t want to see the Kansas Jayhawks in their part of the bracket when they are revealed in two weeks.

Duke Blue Devils

The Duke Blue Devils have looked like one of the top teams in the country for much of the season, but they have also suffered some bad losses of late. Duke is an extremely young team, and that has hurt them a bit in past NCAA Tournaments.

Center Vernon Carey Jr. can put this team on his back if he needs to, but they also have plenty of other weapons around him. Point guard Tre Jones is a winner, and don’t be surprised if you see Duke make a deep run in the NCAA Tournament in March.

Gonzaga Bulldogs

Gonzaga used to be considered a “Cinderella team,” but now they are considered a favorite. Head coach Mark Few has had to reload and regroup, but he has another terrific team in Spokane.

Gonzaga is the highest-scoring team in the country, and they are extremely efficient as well. Strength of schedule is always a huge question mark with this team, but they should have an easier path by earning a likely number one seed.

Maryland Terrapins

Point guard Anthony Cowan Jr. and forward Jalen Smith give Maryland one of the top 1-2 punches in the country, and they currently sit on top of the Big Ten Conference. Cowan is averaging more than 16 points per game to lead this team, and he also dishes out more than four assists per night.

Smith is a double-double machine that is capable of scoring in the low post, or by hitting an outside shot. Depth is a question mark with this team, but their starting unit is really good.

Baylor Bears

The Baylor roster is a collection of transfers and redshirt players, but they have had a phenomenal season. Baylor spent a handful of weeks as the top-ranked team in the country, and the Bears still have a shot at winning the Big 12 Conference.

The Bears are one of the top defensive teams in the country, and they will make life difficult for opposing offenses.

If you are looking to start your own Pay Per Head site, then the best place to start is at WagerHome.com. WagerHome will provide you with all of the tools needed to become your own bookie and start taking bets today. Be sure to get all set up before the NCAA Tournament begins in a few weeks.
