    Is There Any Chance This Bet Can Lose?
    O 2 Qb's first rd. -600

    I do see any way this bet could lose, there is a good chance that it is a push but no way you can lose. Claussen and Bradford have to go in the first round. This is not like taking a 10 point favorite on the ML this just seems like a fact to me that they go first round.

    interesting thought, i have not looked at the draft too closely though so im not sure. Whos likely to be the third one drafted in the 1st round? Where are claussen and bradford projected?

    just a thought is quinn fell from what like projected 3rd to 20something that one year, but thats not typical?

    Would be cool if a big draft buff weighed in on this....

    What site you bettingthis prop?

      It's a lock i think. Push is a worse case scenario as you said earlier.

        yeah those guys are going in the 1st. Every analyst loves Tebow and they hype him up. McCoy could sneak in the 1st round or early 2nd. This is a - well atleast a push

          McCoy would be a good shot to be the third. Tebow probably is the only other guy who has a legit shot. Both guys I think are supposed to go top 10, could fall but not out of first round.

                is this 2 or 2 or more, i see . clausen will be a 1st round pick, and chance one could be taken late in rd 1

                  2 is a push. 3 or more is a win. Bradford should go #1 overall regardless of what we think of his pro potential.

                    I'd take a chance, at worst you'll push. Bradford and Clausen are both 1st rounders and you never know if Tebow or McCoy can slip in with a late pick in the round.

                      Well, Bradford and Clausen are locks for the first round, and I never use the L-Word. However, if Jacksonville doesn't draft Tebow in Round 1, then I think you'll just Push. I don't see McCoy as a first rounder.

                        Tebow might be terrible choice. Going to be a flop i think. Collect his paycheck than straight to preisthood.

                          Remember, the Raiders are in this draft and they could take anybody. Might help the Over!

                              2 is for sure, so its an iffy bet if you're counting on it to win, push for sure though. Tebow wont go or they would have already told him to stay & not go back to Fla to suckle at mommys teet

                                McCoy isn't a first rounder. Tebow may come in towards the very end of the 1st round but I don't see it.

                                  a push, on bodog and bookmaker, if 2 get selected it would be a loss i believe, i thought pushes were losses.

                                    Pushes are losses if the book indicates pushes are losses which i don't see here.

                                      Yeah, but they'll waste their pick on some back-up receiver that runs like a gazelle, not on a QB.

                                        Depends on the wording. if it is:

                                        Will there be more than 2 QBs drafted in Round 1
                                        Yes -160


                                        Then you are exactly right.

                                          The price on this bet can't lose but it cant win......Tebow or Mccoy will not be taken even close to the 1st round......The bet is pointless either way.....The jaguars WILL NOT be wasting a first round pick on Tebow....you are freerolling on the over though if by some 1000-1 chance some dumbass team takes a qb knowing they can wait n get that guy in the 2nd round anyway most likely.

                                              you also could get Tebow not first round at 5 dimes -250 if you feel he has no chance to go first

                                                        Why wasn't USC Safety Taylor Mays picked? Seemed like he was the nuts at the combine.

                                                          Tebow actually ruined the bet........If the Broncos take claussen there, the bills would have traded for the next pick to take Tebow.....Broncos were takin a qb no matter what.....Therefore, making it 3 qbs in the first round.

                                                                    only 5 career INTs at USC, so his "instincts" were criticized. They were also saying he over commits on plays trying to get a big hit and ends up giving up a big play. I hope the bengals pick him up tonight, wont have to wait too long to find out.
