NFL Draft Picks

Pretty crazy that today is the NFL Draft and somehow the Draft itself is not the main NFL storyline (looking at you Vrabel). Really excited to see how this draft shakes out as it’s perceived to be a weak class so we could see a run of trades as people try and move up to secure one of the few Blue-Chips in this draft. While the Draft is not our expertise, last year we made a small profit on some picks and wanted to run it back this year. Got 3 plays for yall but before we get into them, check out our favorite sportsbook, BetSaracen!

WeeklyWagers- Kayden McDonald to be a First Round Pick (-120) 1U

This is probably my most confident play as I just see a lot of teams towards the end of the 1st that could use DT help and I think he’s a really clean prospect who performed really well last year for the Buckeyes. Ohio State is an NFL factory and I really think once you get to Chicago at 25, you could see any one of those teams take him. Kansas City itself has mentioned it’s really focused on improving the IDL, and as a Chiefs fan I’d be happy if he was the move at 29.

WeeklyWagers- Arvel Reese to be the #2 Pick (+120) 1U

This picks has flipped back and forth all pre-draft between Reese and David Bailey. Really the whole time I thought it would be Reese and the Bailey reports haven’t changed my mind. Reese is 20 years old and an absolute freak of nature. He’s even said he’s never been coached on pass rush moves, he just went out there and banked on being a better athlete. Bailey might’ve had more production, but I think the upside and versatility of Reese is enough to push him over the edge. Getting plus money on a kid like this is a bet I’ll always take.

WeeklyWagers- Monroe Freeling to be 1st OT taken (+1400) .1 U

This is a small bet on a long shot, but I think it has some legs. I’m no evaluator by any means, but just hearing everybody talk about these tackles… I just don’t see a stud at the top, and a lot of question marks have been raised about these guys ability to stay at OT in the NFL. The Cards could very easily turn in a Fano or Mauioga card at 3 and this bet be toast, but I think Freeling profiles best as your prototypical LT. He’s a freak athlete who turned in a 9.99 RAS score, and dominated the SEC this year. The knock is a lack of starts, but the physical tools +tape is enough for me to take a long shot on him!
