Sports betting: Caleb Williams favored to be No. 1 overall pick in NFL draft
Unsurprisingly, Southern California quarterback Caleb Williams is BetMGM Sportsbook’s favorite to be the No. 1 overall pick in this week’s NFL draft.
The draft will be held from Thursday to Saturday in Detroit and the Chicago Bears have the top pick, with the Washington Commanders,New England Patriots,Arizona Cardinals and Los Angeles Chargers rounding out the top five.
A run on quarterbacks is expected, with the top signal-callers going off the board early in the draft. But trades could enter the equation, with teams moving up to grab the player they want.
ODDS MOVEMENT
Williams is expected to be the taken by the Chicago Bears with the No. 1 pick. As of Tuesday, the 2022 Heisman Trophy winner is -10000 to be the first player drafted.
Things get interesting after that.
Jayden Daniels has the best odds at -155 to be the No. 2 pick, but he was -400 a week ago. Drake Maye’s odds are rising, now at +125, to be the second pick after being +220 last week. Meanwhile, J.J. McCarthy is lurking at +1200.
