Running backs may not dominate the 2024 NFL Draft headlines like quarterbacks and wide receivers do, but if you play the betting market right, you can cash in.
There is no projected first round pick between this year’s group of running backs in the 2024 NFL Draft, which has opened up the betting odds quite a bit. There are five running backs priced below +1000 to be the first selected, including Florida State’s Trey Benson, Texas’ Jonathon Brooks, Tennessee’s Jaylen Wright, Michigan’s Blake Corum and USC’s Marshawn Lloyd.
Without a consensus top running back prospect, and the bet likely going into day two, it’ll come down to specific teams' draft boards as to who will go first.
