This year is expected to be the most-watched NFL Draft in history while being one of the most unpredictable drafts in recent memory.
Unpredictable, because after the first two players on the board, there is no consensus. Unpredictable, because pro days were canceled because of COVID-19, and teams have had far fewer meetings with players. And unpredictable because a smooth draft is dependent on the coaches and GMs of all 32 teams having good WiFi connections.
All of that unpredictability can only mean one thing – anyone can find a winning prop bet because anything could happen at this year’s NFL Draft.
Player Draft Specials
The most intriguing player to talk about is Tua Tagovailoa. He has world-class talent but is just a few months removed from a serious hip injury. If he’s worth taking a risk with a high pick, which team is most likely to select him?
- Dolphins +150
- Chargers +175
- Jaguars +500
- Raiders +1000
The smart money is on the Dolphins or Chargers, and both teams still need to solidify a QB for 2020 and the future.
Chase Young is the best defensive player in the draft, but Isaiah Simmons is the most intriguing because of his versatility. Which team is most likely to draft Simmons?
- Panthers +225
- Giants +350
- Cardinals +700
- Falcons +700
- Chargers +700
Interesting to see the Chargers near the top of this prop bet since they are also in the Tua sweepstakes. But if Tagovailoa goes to Miami, the Chargers will probably go with defense or trade back.
LSU vs. Alabama
College rivalries don’t end just because players move on to the NFL, and the rivalry between LSU and Alabama has carried over into a couple of different prop bets. You can bet the over/under on the number of players taken in the first round:
- Alabama Over 5.5 (+100) Under 5.5 (-121)
- LSU Over 5.5 (+235) Under 5.5 (-305)
Or you can just take the two rivals in a head-to-head matchup for most players taken in the first round:
- Alabama -240
- LSU +190
Mr. Irrelevant
The above props will be decided on the first day of the draft. But if you’re looking for some excitement on the last day, there is the very popular Mr. Irrelevant, and betting on which position will be selected with the 255th overall pick.
- Offense -121
- Defense +100
- Kicker/Punter/Long Snapper +1400
