Trading Strategy: NFL Preseason Markets

- Injury developments flow into traditional betting lines rapidly yet sometimes lag in prediction market consensus
- Regional or specialist intelligence regarding particular franchises remains unincorporated into aggregate valuations
- Media-driven mispricing of marquee franchises relative to their genuine championship probabilities
