The 2022 NFL Draft brings uncertainty, but analysis of betting trends reveals three promising first-round wagers:

Total QBs Drafted in First Round OVER 2.5 (-271)

  • Kenny Pickett and Malik Willis are virtual locks for Round 1
  • QB-needy teams like Lions (picks #2, #32) and Falcons (#8) seeking signal callers
  • Fifth-year option incentivizes late first-round QB selections
  • Desmond Ridder or Sam Howell likely to be third QB taken

Kayvon Thibodeaux Draft Position OVER 4.5 (+130)

  • Previously projected #1 overall, stock has fallen due to character concerns
  • Travon Walker and Aidan Hutchinson expected to be first edge rushers selected
  • Texans (#3) trending toward CB or OL
  • Jets (#4) showing interest in Jermaine Johnson II
  • Could fall to Seahawks at #9

Ahmad "Sauce" Gardner Draft Position UNDER 5.5 (-143)

  • Top cornerback prospect with stellar on/off field attributes
  • Surpassed Derek Stingley Jr. as CB1
  • Draft position projection moved from 8.5 to 5.5
  • Lions considering at #2
  • Texans showing strong CB interest at #3
  • Unlikely to fall past top 5 selections
