  One of the most popular Super Bowl props every year is the player to score the first touchdown of the game. This is the prop where you can get some good sports odds and be cheering for your player to score. Let’s look at the odds for this popular Super Bowl prop at Diamond Sportsbook and also the odds on which player will win the MVP Award for Super Bowl XLVI.

  Player to Score First TD

  Rob Gronkowski +550

  Aaron Hernandez +750

  BenJarvus Green-Ellis +750

  Wes Welker +750

  Victor Cruz +750

  Hakeem Nicks +850

  Ahmad Bradshaw +850

  Brandon Jacobs +1200

  Deion Branch +1400

  Mario Manningham +1400

  Danny Woodhead +2000

  Jake Ballard +2000

  Tom Brady +2500

  Chad Ochocinco +2500

  Steven Ridley +2500

  Eli Manning +3500

  Julian Edelman +3500

  Travis Beckum +3500

  Bear Pascoe +3500

  D. J. Ware +3500

  The Field (Any other Player) +750

  No TD Scored +10000

  When you consider the player who will score first Super Bowl prop there are the obvious choices like Gronkowski and Cruz and while each of them could have some value we always like to go for a player who has double-digit odds. Wouldn’t it be just like Brady to hit Deion Branch for the first TD of the game? Branch has some appealing odds at 14-1. The big longshot we like is Travis Beckum at 35-1. The Giants have been getting him more involved in the offense and at those odds we’ll take a shot.

  Odds to Win the MVP Award

  Tom Brady +130

  Eli Manning +225

  Rob Gronkowski +450

  Victor Cruz +1400

  Hakeem Nicks +1400

  Wes Welker +1500

  Aaron Hernandez +1500

  Ahmad Bradshaw +2500

  BenJarvus Green-Ellis +2500

  Jason Pierre-Paul +2500

  Deion Branch +3000

  Brandon Jacobs +3500

  Mario Manningham +3500

  Danny Woodhead +5000

  Antrel Rolle +5000

  Chad Ochocinco +5000

  Devin McCourty +5000

  Jake Ballard +5000

  Jerod Mayo +5000

  Kyle Arrington +5000

  Osi Umenyiora +5000

  Stephen Gostkowski +5000

  Lawrence Tynes +5000

  The Field (Any other player) +1500

  It is hard to take anyone other than Brady or Manning to win the MVP but you could make a case for Gronkowski if he is healthy and the way Victor Cruz has played this season he has some value at 14-1. Make sure to follow BetDSI on Twitter for more Super Bowl betting news and odds.
