On the DBacks, would your answer be different if you knew Derwin James is 4/1 with Betwahey?

He is one of my favourite players in the draft. All three are pro bowlers, though.

Might be

could see any one of the three going to Tampa at 7.

I did wonder about Denzel Ward at 6 though if the Colts stay there (i think they trade out to the Bills or Miami)

I think John Elway thinks like you: he expects the Colts to be a target for trades, so reckons he can capitalise a place higher.

Ward would be the Colts' guy for sure, as they were atrocious against WR2 and WR3 last year. Ward is the slot corner who can turn his hand to safety, which is what they need. The other two are more natural safeties.

Josh Allen at o1.5 at 1/2 in most places. Do we really think the Browns would take him over Darnold?

Think you've already noted Lamar Jackson u17.5 and suggested the Cardinals? Can't argue with that, and with teams possibly moving up I can see it being even more likely. The Bengals had him in for a visit and I wouldn't be shocked to see him land there if he's somehow still there at 21

8/11 on a Tight end being taken in the first, I think I'm leaning towards the yes on that one. I was going to get on Courtland Sutton being the first WR off the board as PP had him at a standout 7/1 but that's now , so won't be touching that.

I also had a look at 1st RB without Barkley being Rashaad Penny, but that was only because it was 20/1, It's unlikely to be anyone other than Guice, and that doesn't seem to exist any more anyway! I have been trying to request o2.5 RBs hoping for somewhere near 5/1 for that, but haven't got anyone to price it up so far, I know it's probably unlikley Michel makes the first round, but if I can get the odds than I'd be tempted. (Saying that Michel to be first round is 4/1 on Skybet, which is essentially the same bet) - Skybet also have Derwin James to be drafted 1-15, judging from your comments Tal you think that's probably quite likely?

Some bloke on Betting emporium had the same LB as the first off the board as well

Just saw that u4.5 LBs is available at 9/4 and most of the mocks I can see seem to stop at 4. Not many that I can find that are odds against, I may go for that. In fact you can get o3.5 LBs at 8/15 on Betstars, and u4.5 at 9/4...

If you’re the Browns, you’ve already scared the teams who want Saquon, Darnold, Allen or Rosen into calling to see what it would take to get to #1...all that’s left is to try a transparent reach to see if you can scare a few teams that like Baker into calling too

This is my view of it all, too.

Darnold. They're taking Darnold.

My favourite NFL writer's mock draft.

A smile to your face or your money back.

Requested Kyle Lauletta to be drafted by the Bengals... 5/2. I shall pass on that one

First rule of requestabets: never only request one.

"Can you give me a price on Kyle Lauletta going to Patriots, Bengals, Chiefs and Seahawks please?"

Much harder to say 5/2 on each of them!

I watched that draft show neil did on his own last night with a cam from the usa with some guy talking about teh draft.  He is hard to listen to for sure but why was the studio the most narrow ever and he was shoved to the far right of it?  Looked a weird set up.  Did anyone else see the show?
