By now, you’ve surely seen plenty of NFL Draft grades, but the issue with many of them is that they are subjective, based on the grader’s pre-draft beliefs about the prospects, and don’t account for all of the variables in play.Most are based purely on the players drafted and how they will fit into a team’s roster and scheme.

Betting on the NFL Draft has become so popular in recent years that you can take all the markets that are offered from various sportsbooks and get a pretty decent picture of how the first round is going to shake out. For example, Cam Ward is -20000 to be selected first overall, Travis Hunter is -1100 to be picked second, and Abdul Carter -700 to go third overall. Those are implied probabilities of 99.5, 91.7, and 87.5 percent, respectively.

Maybe you tried a simple set-up in your office, spent hours trying to make it look just right, and it still doesn't look like you had hoped. Maybe you started researching how to build a studio and felt your stomach twist when you saw the price tag on some of the gear.

Here is my Consensus Big Board Top-10 when adjusted for position: https://t.co/veaTzwUlpd

SEC QBs earn 23.5% of a team’s budget. Dak Prescott, the NFL’s highest paid QB, will earn 21.5% of the salary cap in 2025 (AAV).
Starting QBs are always negotiating their NIL value - not just when the portal opens. Historically, SEC starting QBs earn about 23.5% of their team’s budget. With average budgets around $13.5M this fall, that puts the value for an SEC QB1 at about $3.2M/year. https://t.co/oTjq2g7HZF
