NFL Draft Odds

Looking for some betting action? The NFL Draft will take place from April 23-25 and with the first round on Thursday, second and third rounds on Friday and the rest on Saturday. There are numerous things to bet on when it comes to the draft. You can bet on how many quarterbacks or running backs will be drafted in the first round. You can bet on what spot Tua Tagovailoa will be drafted or over/under on his draft position.

Let's take a look at some of the top props out there for the NFL Draft and I'll predict what to take.

(odds and props from Sportsbet.com)

Jordan Love

Over 15.5 (even)/Under 15.5 (-140)

Pick: Take the Under. Teams are so desperate for quarterbacks, but the Utah State quarterback had 20 TDs and 17 INTs in his junior season. Like Justin Herbert, he has the size and arm, but is unpolished. But one team will gamble on the size and athletic ability. He had 32 TDs and six INTs in 2018 with better talent surrounding him.

Jerry Jeudy

Over 11.5 (-150)/Under 11.5 (+110)

Pick: The better value pick is the under because he's the best pure wide receiver in the draft. There are a plethora of outstanding receivers like CeeDee Lamb from Oklahoma and Jeudy's teammate Henry Ruggs III. But Jeudy is the most complete of them all. If the Jets pass up on him at 11, well, they are the Jets.

NFL Draft First Running Back taken Odds

D'Andre Swift, Georgia -120

Jonathan Taylor, Wisconsin -110

JK Dobbins, Ohio State +750

Clyde Edwards-Helaire, LSU +3200

AJ Dillon, Boston College +6000

Zack Moss, Utah +7500

Pick: Another question is whether a running back will be taken in the first round. They may not as Taylor could end up in the second round, but the pick here is Swift to go mid-first. He won't get past Miami at 26, who desperately needs a back along with a lot of other positions.

Total Alabama players drafted in the first round

Over 5.5 (+102)/Under 5.5 (-130)

Pick: Under. There will be at least four Alabama players picked in the first round. WRs Henry Ruggs II and Jerry Jeudy are locks in the first round along with OT Jedrick Wills and Tua Tagovailoa. After that, safety Xavier McKinney is a possibility.

Total Georgia players drafted in the first round

Over 1.5 (-132)/Under 1.5 (+104)

Pick: This depends on Swift going in the first round, which I believe will happen. The other player is pretty much a lock in Andrew Thomas, the offensive tackle.
