Under Deion Sanders, Colorado has become an impact team in college football. Much of the Buffaloes’ success can be attributed to two players; Shedeur Sanders and Travis Hunter. Next year they will be playing on Sundays and BetUS is offering exclusive odds on where and when the teammates will be chosen in the 2025 NFL draft.
In the BetUS odds, Shedeur Sanders is considered even-money as the favorite to be the 1st Overall Pick 2025 NFL Draft when it comes to NFL predictions. The quarterback threw for 3.926 yards with 35 TD passes against eight interceptions in college football games in 2024. He’s 6-foot-2 and 215 pounds, making him a great quarterback candidate, especially if the team that winds up with the first overall pick needs a signal caller.
As of this writing, the Jacksonville Jaguars have the first pick entering Week 14 of the NFL season. Of course, the Jags have their own first overall pick Trevor Lawrence as their current QB. Could they trade out of the slot if they wind up selecting first? Who would be interested in moving up?
As for Hunter, he is a remarkable player. The WR-DB is on the field for more than 100 plays per game for Colorado. He is one of the best defensive backs in the country. He is arguably the best wide receiver who will be in the 2025 NFL draft. Hunter is listed as the second choice by BetUS at +200 on NFL betting odds.
He had 92 catches for 1,152 yards and 14 touchdowns. On defense, opposing QBs knew not to test him. Still, Hunter had four interceptions and was in on 21 tackles.
When looking to make a bet on the first overall pick, consider this when thinking about Hunter. A wide receiver has not gone first overall since 1996 when the New York Jets chose Keyshawn Johnson out of USC. As for a defensive back being the first player taken, it has happened once. Gary Glick of Colorado State was taken first overall by the Pittsburgh Steelers in 1956. He played six seasons.
So, the draft tendencies with the first pick heavily lean toward a quarterback over a wideout or defensive back.
The 2025 NFL Draft will take place in Green Bay, Wisconsin, home of the Packers. The dates are scheduled for April 24-26. Titletown USA and Lambeau Field will be prominently featured in the three-day event, which will see seven rounds take place. The first round happens on Thursday, the second and third rounds on Friday and the rest will be chosen on Saturday.
To wager on the first pick in the 2025 NFL Draft simply choose the option of this bet or other NFL wager. BetUS offers numerous betting options on sports, pop culture, entertainment, you name it.
The first pick in the 2025 NFL draft goes to the team with the worst record in the league in the 2024 season. If teams wind up with the same record after 18 weeks, then there are tiebreakers.
The team with the schedule with the lowest winning percentage (strength of schedule) would earn the first pick. If they are tied, then the tiebreakers include division and conference tiebreakers.
