    TEBOW 1st round wager....Must read!
    Ok, some sportbooks are offering the prop of Tim Tebow to be drafted in the 1st rd. It opened at -200 for NO, and +160 for YES.

    Why would anyone bet YES to this???? Seems like Free Money...

    Tebow is a no show for 1st rd.
    There are 3 better qbs rated ahead of Tebow that can be drafted.
    The Draft is loaded with talent in the picks range 30-100....who would reach for Tebow when you can trade down and get more picks and Tebow???

    So, oh mighty forum followers why the odds have DROPPED to -160, then -145, and currently as of now is -140 on NO.

    Rumors that Pittsburgh will reach? com'on!!!

    I am gonna tell you why - I SMELL A RAT!!!

    The Books have made a mistake with this, other than the fact you are limited in your wager to only $100 or $200. You wont pay the rent with these winnings, but you will win.

    So what have they done to throw the public off? they MOVED the line in reverse. Now everyone is wondering whats up, and covering there ass with another wagers to hedge. In the end, the -200 will be the winner, but they will have collected many bad hedge bets on YES along the way.

    DONT BE FOOLED!!! they are trying to pull a fast one.. VOTE NO, and take home a free $70 on $100 wager that he won't go first rd.

    I know Sportsbook.com offering this wager. i can't place it as I dont do business with them but would appreciate a few pts if your please with my assessment. After tyhe first round, you will thank me for not falling for the reverse psychology they are trying to play.

      The Vikes are expressing interest. I certainly would not give 2/1.

        Schefter just said on ESPN that he expects 4 QBs to go in the first round, with teams targeting Tebow and McCoy late in the round...

            With the Vikings signing Lito Shephard yesterday, I don't think Tebow and Claussen will pass them. If either of those are gone, they'll probably go w/ the Maurice Pouncey kid.

                No way Tebow goes to the Vikings at #30 in the 1st round. Vikings have a 1 year window to get to the Superbowl and they need players to help next year with the 1st and 2nd round pick. Tebow does nothing for the Vikings for a couple of years and I have my doubts that he will be a starting qb in the NFL, you don't draft projects in the 1st round. I think someone will take Tebow in the 2nd round, maybe the Patriots. Pats would be a good place for Tebow to learn for a few years behind Brady and to work on his mechanics.

                      I know it's too late, but don't ever take sportsbook.com prop bets in the NFL that look absurdly easy.

                      Anyone remember the Pro Bowl prop where Ocho Cinco just had to attempt a FG?

                                    I didn't even see this until now but -200 was awful value considering that there were several teams in the bottom of the first interested.

                                    Peter King said he spoke to several unidentified GMs of teams with late first round picks who assured him that he would not get past their pick if they still had it.
