Vegas thinks we take jones at 6

crooza172 : 4:11 pm
Went from +600 to +260 in the last two hours. Take that for what you will.
Oof  
That would be painful.
I'd be done with Getty

And I like him right now.
They have as much insight into this

so what odds are you giving? :)
Jones at 6 would be dissappointing

That is a massive drop in price. Not good.
Unlikely

Odds move because people are betting money

At this point in the day. Not always what Vegas thinks
That doesn't mean they think it will happen

That's still about 40% at best

Yes and money is apparently pouring in on Jones. Sounds like sharp money to me but who knows. That is a massive drop
Almost As Bad As Getting Rosen  
Trainmaster : 4:29 pm : link
Yuck
Down to +200  
theold5j : 4:39 pm : link
Now
I think I would bet against 6 for QB  
Steve in ATL : 4:39 pm : link
Convinced DG will go defense at 6.
I don't know, tough to go against Vegas.

Vegas doesn't think that.

Bettors do.
Last draft day when the money was moving  
shyster : 5:01 pm : link
heavy to Mayfield, it was based on real info because John Dorsey had told others in the organization, including Hue Jackson, a few days before that Mayfield was the choice.

When you have the number one overall pick, it's typically not critical to maintain the secrecy to the last minute, and it really wasn't for the Browns.

Different situation for NYG with the sixth pick. If the money move turns out to be accurate, will make for interesting speculation on sourcing.
As a Cane fan i have seen Jones play

for a few seasons now. Not impressed at all!!!! Hope this is not the case.

Don't know which book this is,  
oreojenkins : 5:25 pm : link
but the limits on this type of betting is usually miniscule. Not like they're taking in millions. There was a rumor that some dude named Yorgos was going to win best director at the Oscars when he was 200-1+ across the board, and he actually became the favorite in a matter of hours. Turned out to be a hoax. Don't think that's really the issue here, but I don't think I'd read too too much into the line movements. Daniel Jones def possible, but I don't think 6-1 to 2-1 means it's anywhere near a lock (or even an actual most likely outcome).
Follow the money

when it moves shortly before the draft.
Look like I was right about that being sharp money  
Zeke's Alibi : 10:56 pm : link
That was too big a drop on draft day not to be.
