Drake London first wide receiver drafted (+250)
2022 NFL Draft — first wide receiver drafted prop · The Favorites Sports Betting Podcast, 2022-04-27 · ·

“what do you like yeah this is something that's kind of changed here but i think when we start looking at those top 10 teams and i land specifically on atlanta there at eight is being the primary spot for the first wide receiver come off the board garrett wilson was the early favorite and when you look at the odds he's still the favorite there at 110 the person that i'm actually Lincoln there is going to be Drake London, who you can get a little bit better odds. I think he's sitting around plus 250 right now. I just think with that coaching staff, Arthur Smith in particular, he likes bigger wide receivers. That that position group is probably the worst position group there for Atlanta in the entire NFL You start looking at what their other options might be and I would kind of lean towards edge They were pretty horrible at putting pressure on the passer as well But I just don't think that that position group there at wide receiver is one where they can sit there and go into the second round without being able to take one of these premium wide receivers. And right now I have Drake London as the DNAT guy that I think is a good bet to go off the board as the first wide receiver selected. He's got the third shortest odds on DraftKings for first receiver selected, like you said, plus 250.”

Drake London was the first wide receiver drafted in the 2022 NFL Draft, going No. 8 to Atlanta (Wikipedia).

Over 4.5 first-round cornerbacks drafted (+120)
2022 NFL Draft — number of first-round cornerbacks drafted · The Favorites Sports Betting Podcast, 2022-04-27 · ·

“I think when you start looking at it, we talked a little bit more about how the landscape's kind of changing with some of these contracts. Right now that number is at over four and a half. And I think when you start playing some of these numbers like this and start thinking of it more in a poker standpoint I think you want out to very similar to the way you would play a hand of poker And I think with that cornerback number you have some outs in the form of you know some of these guys, like, you know, you start looking, you've got Kyrie Ilm, you've got, you know, Kyler Gordon, you've got Andrew Booth, like those three guys right there could all add on to, to the top three cornerbacks that are, that are selected. So I think you give yourself outs with that over four and a half number, I think the total number is going to end up being five, but sitting there at what it's at plus 120 right now, that's a bet that I like.”

Round 1 of the 2022 NFL Draft had exactly four cornerbacks selected (Stingley No. 3, Gardner No. 4, McDuffie No. 21, Elam No. 23), under the 4.5 total (Wikipedia).

Over 1.5 first-round safeties drafted (-285)
2022 NFL Draft — number of first-round safeties drafted · The Favorites Sports Betting Podcast, 2022-04-27 · ·

“Yeah, you know, I think when we start looking at some of these and this isn't a number that's going to give you huge odds, but I think it's a very safe bet. And I think when you start looking at the over and under on safeties, you definitely have Kyle Hamilton. But that number right there is that one and a half. So Lewis seen Daxton Hill out of Michigan, you know, at minus 285. You're not going to make a huge profit here. But I think you're safe to go ahead and look, go ahead and settle with a 20 percent, you know, bump on your on your bankroll and stuff like that. I think you have those two outs. Daxton Hill is very highly regarded. He's got an expected draft position bouncing around somewhere around pick 25. Lewis seems another guy that the scouts seem to love. I think he's a great fit for Detroit there at at pick 32. I think Tampa Bay is another out that you could possibly see. Also Cincinnati. I think there's plenty of options at the back end right there to for another one of these safeties to go. And that that safety bet at over one and a half just seems like easy money for me. Like I said, you're not going to make a huge profit, but I think it's safe to go ahead and take the guaranteed money, which is what I would consider that bet.”

Round 1 of the 2022 NFL Draft had three safeties selected (Kyle Hamilton No. 14, Daxton Hill No. 31, Lewis Cine No. 32), over the 1.5 total (Wikipedia).

“[18:43] Because I know when you initially sent me these, it was indeed plus 1,200, and now it's four to one. [18:50] So you may have moved the market there, sir. Let's get into Kenny Pickett, small hands, Kenny. [18:58] You know, what do you think? Is he going to be the first quarterback taken right now? [19:01] He is a slight underdog, plus 140 to Willis, who's around minus 170. [19:10] You know, my last mock draft, I put out about four mock drafts and I do basically three before I submit my final one that gets graded. [19:18] And, you know, within that process, I like to move players around and kind of get some feedback because the fans will let you know if they don't like the pick. [19:26] And look, a lot of these fans know what their teams want. So in my most recent mock draft, I actually projected Malik Willis to six to Carolina.”

Over 0.5 safeties drafted in the first round (-250)
2021 NFL Draft — safeties drafted in the first round (over/under 0.5) · The Favorites Sports Betting Podcast, 2021-04-13 · ·

“I saw a line out there. They set the over and under at 0.5 for safeties to be drafted in the first round. The kid Grant from UCF and I think Trevin Morag from TCU, both of those guys, one for sure, I think Morag's going to go in the first round. But at minus 250, I think there's enough odds there, even though it's negative, to go ahead and drop money on that and have a decent return. Some of the other ones, I think both Jalen Waddell and Devontae Smith, from what I'm looking at right now, are both plus 100 to over and under to be 11.5. I think you can go ahead and bet on both of those I think one of them will return One of those guys is going to end up you know lower than that 10 and a half number That safety bet I think is easy money I willing to drop heavily on that even though it a negative odd”

No safety was selected in Round 1 of the 2021 NFL Draft (the first safety, Jevon Holland, went pick 36 in Round 2), so the over 0.5 safeties in Round 1 lost.
