Sticks’ Picks – 2020 NFL Draft

1. Justin Herbert Draft Position OVER 5.5 (-138): Personally, I hate taking anything more than (-115) on any bet, but I’ve been anti-Herbert all off-season and really don’t think there’s any chance he gets selected in the Top-10… unless there is some shuffling of draft picks, via trade (which is entirely possible).
   
   Maybe the Chargers roll the dice on Herbert, but I just don’t see any other Quarterbacks going in the Top-10 outside of Tua and Burrow (and maybe a trade up for Jordan Love). I’ll lay the juice with confidence that Herbert gets selected after pick five.
   
2. Jake Fromm Draft Position OVER 68.5 (-110): I loved Fromm two years ago at Georgia, but it seems he hasn’t really progressed into a top NFL caliber draftee. Fromm is hardly a Top-10 Quarterback in this 2020 NFL Draft Class, so taking the over 68.5 appears like free money at first glance… and the price is damn-near even money. Sign me up!
   
3. Jordan Love Drafted by the Raiders (+900): Not much to say here, I just think the Raiders have to draft a Quarterback and are unlikely to move up for Tua or Burrow. For what it’s worth, according to Addison Hayes’ reports, the Raiders have visited Love both at the combine and through a virtual meeting. I guess that sounds comforting, let’s punch in this wager.
   
4. Justin Herbert Drafted by the Raiders (+1400): See above. If you put $20 on both bets for the 2020 NFL Draft, and the Raiders happen to choose one of them, the worst you can do is profit $140. I’m in.

Sia’s Picks

1. Henry Ruggs Draft Position UNDER 13.5 (-121)
   
2. Tristan Wirfs Draft Position UNDER 8.5 (-152)

Javi’s Picks

1. Tampa Bay Buccaneers to MISS Playoffs (+260)
   
2. Tampa Bay Buccaneers UNDER 10 Wins (-110) – Javi clearly is not buying into the public’s early money (the Bucs total quickly moved from 9.5 wins to 10) on the Bucs as soon as they signed Rob Gronkowski. If you’re interested in the preseason bet, you can probably get an even better price as the public money continues to flood the OVER.

David Jones’ Picks

1. Jeff Okudah Draft Position UNDER 4.5 (+110)
   
2. Jalen Hurts Draft Position OVER 55.5 (-110): Loved him in college (but not because of raw talent, Roll Tide). I do not expect him to have much of a career in the NFL and should fall pretty late.
   
3. Jordan Love Draft Position OVER 23.5 (-110): I don’t think four Quarterbacks come off the board before the 24th pick.
   
4. Henry Ruggs Draft Position OVER 13.5 (+100): Ruggs isn’t one of the top two receivers in my opinion. I think it’s safe he’ll be on the board past pick 14.
   
5. Atlanta Falcons First Drafted Position: Cornerback (-167)
   
6. Las Vegas Raiders First Drafted Position: Wide Receiver (-167)

Jason’s Picks – 2020 NFL Draft

1. First Draft Pick – Hugs Dad First (+250)
   
2. Will a Draftee Experience Technical Difficulties: YES (-300)
   
3. Covid-19 Prop: OVER 9.5 People Shown in the Same Room (Whatever odds you can find)
   
4. Total Dogs Shown in the Same Room: OVER 3.5 (Whatever odds you can find)
   
5. Will a Draftee Pop Champagne: YES (+600)

Michael’s Picks

1. Will any Draftee be shown drinking beer: YES (+700)
   
2. Total cats shown during the first round: UNDER 0.5 (-110)
   
3. Henry Ruggs Draft Position OVER 13.5 (+100)
