    More than likely Cincinnati will pick up Mr Heisman as pick #1  -unless-  they get a fantastic deal from someone.

    Mayfield, OBj and a second

    Would Cleveland make that offer  -and- would Cincinnati accept it ?

    But who knows what else might happen ?

  • Any action on Okudah to the Lions.  I think that would be a lock.  

  • And the other positions and more should be an interesting draft to say the least !   https://www.vegasinsider.com/nfl/odds/draft/#skill

    That's your point of view and you're entitled to it -but- sports betting odds and news are as old as sports itself especially now with sports wagering as close as your cellphone all over the USA.

    Amazing too how close sports opinions are reflected by the odds of don't you think that Mr Heisman is the odds on favorite to be #1 pick of the Cincinnati ?

    And who is likely to be the #2 pick and so on.

    It is not news to say that  Burrows would be the favorite to be taken #1 overall. 

    Gambling odds are not sports news.....it is just information for someone who gambles.  Don't get me wrong....when I was in Vegas  in Feb. I put a few bucks down on some sports bets.   (I won my Super Bowl bet).   It is just not sports news.

    Pussy... 😉

    Real mix of shitty bets and sucker bets at the top. I can't see them getting much action with that board.

    There used to be a game online that I loved called PlayTheDraft... site is dead now, but it was a blast. Only other Board member I ever talked into playing it was Mudfly. You'd probably have been the 2nd one.

    Also had some interesting sleeper insight that was written up weekly.

    @tour2ma said:

    It's not a draft sim like FanSpeak or First-Pick. It's what you'd get if you combined the draft and the stock market.

    • You get a pile of cash.
    • You buy players of widely varying costs.
    • You can buy and sell at any time (trading) or hold for the long haul (invest).
    • Player values rises and falls based upon how their projected draft position's rookie salary rises and falls with events between the Senior Bowl and the draft.
    • Their final value set by their actual draft position.

    Check it out... https://playthedraft.com/

    I contacted the guy who ran the site and asked about adding the ability to short players. An inability to profit from players falling down the board was all the game lacked IMO.

  • I have placed three bets for added interest on draft night, in english odds I’m afraid 

    1&2 picks in order Burrow—Tia @ 5/2

    First WR taken Henry Ruggs @ 6/1

    First OL taken Andrew Thomas @ 9/1

  • Early odds for the AFCN...

    2020 AFC North title odds (via William Hill)

    Ravens -180
    Steelers +275
    Browns +500
    Bengals +3000

    I hope that's a typo...

    While I value tia's player evaluations, I don't see him going #2 overall... 😉

    Tua, perhaps?

  • I think those odds may be changed quite a lot after the draft. I like Zona's odds for the over right there. Cleveland history says otherwise, but under new management so who knows.

  • To my eye the easy Over looks to be MIA at 6.0.

    An Under is tougher to pick, but CHI at 8.0 jumps out at me as they still do not have a QB.

    Picking teams with even games introduces the possibility of a push.
