Vegas odds on Giants' pick

jeff57 : 4/23/2018 2:25 pm
@BovadaLV:

Saquon Barkley 2-1
Bradley Chubb 11-4
Sam Darnold 11-4
Josh Allen 7-2
Josh Rosen 4-1
Baker Mayfield 15-1
Lamar Jackson 40-1
Mason Rudolph 60-1
Not that i would ever bet on something like this....

but i love Rosen at 4-1.
This will never happen again

and by "this" I mean Giants at #2 (or #1) and five players at 4-1 or better three days before the draft.

And there is the additional sixth plausible possibility of a trade-down.

Chubb staying fairly strong. He is the only one who really fits the "build from inside out" theme DG has harped on.

Could you imagine

What would happen to this website if Roger Goodell says the name Mason Rudolph with the 2nd pick in the draft?

I think that would just break BBI forever and we would all be in a Mad Max like chase trying to find Eric is a desert somewhere.
Wtf Jackson and Rudolph?  
Coach Red Beaulieu : 4/23/2018 2:49 pm : link
Lololol suckers bets. Mayfield 15-1 might be worth a flier. Would be shocked but not in the realm of impossible like Jackson and Rudolph.

I would also take a flier on Nelson and Vea.

The definitive word would be: KABOOM!!

Better odds on trade no down, than picking mayfield.

That 7-2 read on Allen to the Giants is fucking terrifying.

Will be the pick, it is becoming pretty clear now, Barkley is the smokescreen, and Gettleman has played it well.

I read it the other way; I think it's great. It's clear to me that Vegas has no idea which was the Giants are going. Peter King said that Gettleman could be in the CIA. Sure, Barkley could be the pick. But no one can tell me that this pick is obvious to anyone.

Mason Rudolph action? Lol

Seem on the money to me. Barkley at 2 is the vibe I get even though I don’t agree w it.
If the Giants feel they can coach up Josh Allen

well it makes no sense to float the name of the guy you are going to pick. No sense whatsoever. So if I wanted Barkley I would be dismayed by the Barkley chatter around the Giants. I think there is no way in hell they are taking Barkley. And if DG selects him he is a complete idiot.
You can..

say this about any of the top picks.

At some point, there's been chatter about all the picks, mainly from beat writers throwing stuff against the wall.

There's also Barkley chatter in Cleveland. There's Darnold chatter in Cleveland. Allen chatter.

That's all you get when nobody has a fucking clue what is going to happen, but they still need to write something.

No, but Rosen came out early on and said he would not play for Cleveland.

Love these comments. I guess I don't have to watch Thursday night.
The way social media is today, more often than not the smoke is fire unless something changes suddenly.

I am not sure I really get the upside to us bluffing Barkley. I want it to be Rosen, and if it is, the Giants have done a masterful job of concealing their pick.
Vegas has odds on the NFL draft? Why wouldn't teams (through

Whoa Whoa Whoa.

I think 1/2 of the guys here wouldn't even stop if he was standing on the side of the road in a rainstorm with a sign that said "FLOWERS OR BUST"

Cleveland wants Barkley and the QB of their choice. If they are convinced the Giants will take Barkley at #2, it either forces them to take Barkley #1 giving the Giants any QB they want (which would make Cleveland really, really stupid), or make Cleveland make the Giants a good offer to move up from #4 to #2.

If they drop to 4 they don’t have the QB of their choice or Barkley.
