NFL DPOY Top-4

Buys the 4 preseason NFL Defensive Player of the Year favorites, equal-split, entered at the real Polymarket volume-weighted average price over the first ~7 days after the market opens, held until the award is announced.

Backtested and allocation-capped — a historical result, never a promised edge.

Equal-weighted average of every pick's real odds. Each range shows whoever was actually favored at ITS start, tracked through to now — not today's picks rewound. Not yet weighted by real dollars, since no position is bought into this strategy today; once a real purchase exists, this line becomes that position's real dollar value over time instead.

Exit timing — peak vs. final
Historical

Real backtested result if this strategy had exited at an interim checkpoint, compared to actually holding to the final resolution — 2/2 profitable at final, avg final ROI +94.6%.

2024
Final was the peak
Final+116.8%
2025
Week 12+79.5%
Final+74.3%

Real final value was the peak in 2024; 2025's real Week 12 checkpoint (+79.5%) was only narrowly ahead of its own final (+74.3%) — a near-tie, not a real edge. Hold-to-end is the default.

HISTORICAL BACKTEST — NOT A GUARANTEE. A real recommendation drawn from a small number of past seasons, never a promised edge going forward.
