The NFL Draft runs Thursday at 7pmET in Pittsburgh and lasts until Saturday, April 25. The first round is on Thursday, rounds 2-3 on Friday, and Saturday offers fourth, fifth, sixth and seventh rounds.
When it comes to betting on the NFL Draft, there are several options, including picking the number one player. At that point, the Raiders are going to take QB Fernando Mendoza, so it’s not worth betting on him at -20000 (from DK).
The second pick is likely to be David Bailey (-135) or Avrell Reese (+105). The NY Jets have that pick and Bailey, an Edge from Texas Tech, seems the likely pick over DE Reese from Ohio State. Bailey tied for the FBS lead in sacks with 14.5 in 2025.
Reese (+125) could end up in Arizona, which also needs pass-rush help. But there’s a possibility that dynamic runner Jeremiyah Love (+850) from Notre Dame goes as high as third. Running backs normally don’t get drafted over pass rushers in today’s game.
Love, at least in the mock drafts, appears to be a lock as a top-five pick. He’s +115 to be drafted fourth by Tennessee, who can use a lot. There are also a lot of questions after Medoza, Bailey, and Reese as to who gets drafted from 4 and on. Ohio State LB Sonny Styles is a fantastic athlete who is more of a middle/inside backer than an Edge. Those guys, again, usually don’t go this high.
Francis Mauigoa makes sense to the NY Giants at the 5th pick. The Miami (FL) offensive tackle could also start inside at guard. He’s +380, while Styles is +175 to go to the Giants in the fifth pick.
You can also bet on each team’s top position. So, for example, if you think Baltimore is going to draft an Edge, that’s +475. They are favored to draft an offensive lineman (+140) and a wide receiver (+190), because those are the biggest needs.
One of the more popular bets is positions over/under. For example, the total number of cornerbacks drafted in the fourth round is listed at 4.5. Over 4.5 would be +330 and Under is -500. That shows that it’s a pretty weak draft for corners. If you think Love is the only running back drafted in the first round, go under 1.5 (-700). If you think there will be two or more, go over 1.5 (+400).
Another popular bet is the player who will be first of his position selected. The first offensive lineman is expected to be Mauigoa (-270). If you think Spencer Fano (+330) will be picked higher, you’ll get good value.
Not every team drafts by need, but if you’re going to draft players outside the top five, it’s important to know each team’s needs.
