NFL Draft 2020: Which Player Gets Drafted First Overall?
Just five weeks away, the 2020 NFL Draft is slated to run from April 23 to 25 in Las Vegas. Following Baker Mayfield in 2018 and Kyler Murray in 2019, Joe Burrow will likely make it a three-peat as the third straight quarterback taken first overall.
Few first-round picks have been such a prohibitive favorite at the top. Murray was chalk with -500 odds last year, while Mayfield was a longshot with a +500 price the year prior. A quarterback has been selected first overall during seven of the last 10 drafts. Defensive ends Jadeveon Clowney and Myles Garrett, plus offensive tackle Eric Fisher, were the exceptions.
