I wouldn't make that bet.

Maybe not with your money, but it sounds like there is some real smoke you're about to make that bet with your sundays for the foreseeable future  ;D

The Will Levis movement has been crazy (I say this as someone who has been sitting on Levis to go #1 overall futures at 25:1 from last September).

He was +5000 to go #1 overall last night. He’s now at +400.
All based on a Reddit rumor.
Remembering fondly that time last April when the oddsmakers had Malik Willis as the favorite to go #2 overall to the Lions. He came off the board 84 picks later.

I don't think Levis falls like that, of course, and I do put some credence in the smoke surrounding him and Indy. But the wild swings in the betting markets surrounding this draft is more a testament to the idea that nobody knows nothing than anything else.

Sell! Close that out and take gains you made a great bet last year need to monetize it before it turns to a zero

I’ll throw this out there to everybody…

Who do you think your team will take? Who do you want them to take?

I’ll go with I think the Bears take Jaxon Smith Njigba (my thought is the Bears want Carter/Anderson/Johnson or Wilson, and all 4 are gone by 9).

I want the Bears to take Christian Gonzalez, I think he’s as clean a prospect in the draft, they need help everywhere, and I just can’t take Bijan at 9 (as good as he may be).

JSN to the Bears would be a stunner, given that they have a respectable WR room and  huge needs almost everywhere else.

I'm a (gulp) Raiders fan.
Among the realistic options ...
Want: Devon Witherspoon or Christian Gonzalez
They'll take: Tyree Wilson, Devon Witherspoon or Christian Gonzalez

I think that after the first pick, nobody knows nothing about what's going to happen tomorrow night. But I can guarantee that every GM will get the number one guy on their board when their pick came up.

I think Bears take Carter if available.

If not, 50/50 between best OL or trade down

I’m with you that this is going to be a totally unpredictable draft. I usually trust Daniel Jeremiah, and he has JSN going at 19, and Zay Flowers at 11 (one of my pre-draft lotto ticket wagers is Flowers to be the first wideout drafted). Should be a pretty wild Thursday night.

Agree....but I am more 80% trade down if he isn't.

As much as I’d like to will Detroit to take a QB, if both Schrager & Jeremiah are saying Witherspoon is going to be their pick at 6, probably pretty accurate at this point.

I doubt Detroit takes a QB at 6.   They are all in on Goff, for now.    Corner at 6, d-line at 18.   Tight end and/or tall WR in round 2.
I can see them drafting a QB in round 2 if one slips.     

With all of those picks, trades are on the table and all projections will get tossed.

JSN won't make it past 13... unless they can' trade down and he is available.

Some people think Skoronski could move inside.  If they’re projecting him like that, I’d think they’d take more of a pure T to replace 69.

Skoronski’s grandfather played for the Packers, yeah know, eh

$185M guaranteed.  Do you think an agent could have gotten him the $230M guarantee that Watson got?

Good for Lamar, truly.  Really like him as a genuine sort of dude and he’s been a joy to watch. The $1MM per year more than Hurts is hilarious NFL contract pettiness.

No, cause there is only one organization as moronic as the Browns

I thought this too. They fought each other in public and in private for months, almost burned the org down over it, and then just took the Hurts contract, scrawled +1 on it with a sharpie, and called it good.
