Bettors looking to hedge a small stake on the outcome of the NFL's 71st draft can do so at Bodog, which is once again offering "live draft" odds for the first round along with a slate of proposition wagers.
Starting on Saturday, officials from the NFL's 32 teams will gather at New York's Radio City Music Hall intent on improving their rosters with the finest collegiate talents available.
While general managers and scouts have been busy preparing for the seven-round draft, so have football bettors. This year, bettors will be offered more opportunities than ever to leverage their research and understanding of both the pro and college games as the two-day draft unfolds on live television.
"Bodog expects tremendous bettor interest in the draft because of the wealth of talent on both sides of the ball, and because of the intrigue surrounding where the top two quarterbacks might end up," says Calvin Ayre, Bodog's Founder and CEO. "Among a host of other offerings designed to enhance the sports wagering experience, Bodog will be offering live odds, where our lines are adjusted to reflect each team's draft choice throughout the first round on Saturday."
No one knows for certain what's going on in the heads of NFL general managers. Before the Rose Bowl, it was all about Reggie Bush, USC's Heisman Trophy-winning running back. After the Rose Bowl, it was all about Texas quarterback Vince Young. Now, it's N.C. State defensive end Mario Williams getting attention. But what about USC quarterback Matt Leinart? Who knows where any of them will end up? One thing for sure, bettors are eager to put their predictions to the test on Bodog.
What will the Houston Texans do with the first overall pick in the NFL draft?
Draft Reggie Bush 1/6
Draft Mario Williams 9/5
Trade the pick 7/1
Any Other Player 15/2
