Because in the sports world you can bet on pretty much anything, the NFL Draft definitely is no exception and hasn’t been for years. Sometimes your guess is as good as mine, his, hers, Kiper’s, etc.
However, in addition to banking on which quarterback, running back, or offensive lineman will be selected first or whether a team will take an offensive or defensive player with their initial first-round pick, there are also these prop bets, similar to what oddsmakers offer for the Super Bowl.
