futures payout lower

Noticed this past week the odds on some of my favorite futures are way lower than they’ve been the last two seasons. For example,

1. Division winner props dropped about 20% compared to opening lines last year.

2. Longshot MVP plays aren’t anywhere close to as juicy, even pre-draft.

3. Team win total overs have barely any plus money unless you go for the true outliers.

I get that books adjust to risk and market size, but it seems like they’re chopping edges harder or pulling lines down earlier than usual. I barely even see the promos on these anymore, while casino side stuff seems more aggressive than ever. Curious what angles others look for when standard futures just aren’t worth it.
