Joe Burrow Locked in as No. 1 Pick
The Cincinnati Bengals have the first pick in this year’s NFL Draft and LSU quarterback and reigning Heisman Trophy Winner Joe Burrow is such a heavy favorite, sportsbooks are essentially making it unrealistic for bettors to wager on Burrow coming off the board with the first pick.
MGM has set the odds at -10000 and FanDuel set it at -100000. Meaning if bettors want to win $100 and wager through MGM, they’d have to risk $10,000.
