That isn’t the expectation on Friday. As the second round of the NFL Draft gets underway, Willis is the overwhelming -550 favorite to be the next QB to hear his name called.
When is the NFL Draft resuming? Well, NFL Draft time is showing that the second round gets underway at 7:00 pm ET from Las Vegas. ABC, ESPN, and the NFL Network are carrying the broadcast. As well, all of the action can be live-streamed via fuboTV.

Willis was anticipated in many NFL mock drafts to be a first-round selection. There was even some speculation that the Detroit Lions might be looking at him with the second overall selection.

Meanwhile, others thought that he was a better fit for the Pittsburgh Steelers than Kenny Pickett because in Mason Rudolph, the Steelers already had a QB of similar ilk to Pickett. However, when the local guy fell to the Steelers at #20, they really were left with no choice but to tab Pickett.

So where are the likely landing places for Willis? Well, don’t count out the Lions at +1200 odds. However, after moving up to get receiver Jameson Williams in Round 1, the Lions dropped from #34 to #46 in the second round order.

Both the New Orleans Saints and Seattle Seahawks are in need of a QB for the future. When assessing the NFL Draft Picks by team, the Seahawks own both the 40th and 41st picks in Round 2. Expect Willis to go there if he’s still on the board. But right now it looks like a two-horse race in the odds at +350 between the Giants and Titans.

Western Michigan’s Moore certainly displays playmaking skills but at 5-10, 195 pounds, he will scare teams off. There are no such issues regarding North Dakota’s Watson.

At 6-foot-4 and 208 pounds, Watson offers length and the ability to go vertical. He’s also equipped with freakish speed, which he utilized to stand out in the crowd at the Senior Bowl. He’ll get the nod over the the other remaining wideouts.
Best Bet: Christian Watson (North Dakota) +125

How many NFL Draft picks are there? Seven rounds, as a matter of fact and there’s plenty of talent still to be had.
A record five Georgia defenders went in the first round. Amazingly, LB Nakobe Dean wasn’t one of them. NFL.com rated him at #17 overall. There’s no way he’ll still be there by #42.
Thank you @NFL for giving me the opportunity to even be here, truly a blessing. Congratulations to everyone who got drafted tonight. You guys deserve every bit of it. Of course I’m disappointed i didn’t hear my name called. Sometimes you just gotta let go and let God!

There’s been a lot of buzz about Ole Miss QB Matt Corral in the NFL Draft odds. It wouldn’t be surprising if he comes off the board before North Carolina’s Sam Howell. He’s also looking to be a solid under play at 58.5.
Best Bets: Nakobe Dean (Georgia) under 41.5 (-114); Matt Corral (Ole Miss) under 58.5 (-102)
