Shedeur Sanders NFL Draft Odds
Bet365 offers a wide variety of Shedeur Sanders NFL Draft betting markets. Here are NFL Draft odds for four of the most popular markets currently available.
Shedeur Sanders Overall Pick Odds
One of the top betting markets is predicting when Shedeur Sanders will be drafted. We know it’s likely in the first round, but it could range anywhere from No. 1 to something in the 20s at this point, with rumors circulating recently that the flashy quarterback prospect could see a major drop in his draft position. The Shedeur Sanders NFL draft projection has one of the widest ranges for any top prospect right now.
It is still likely that the quarterback will be selected among the top 5 NFL Draft picks, with the Giants as the most likely landing spot with the No. 3 overall pick. The Giants need a quarterback, and Miami quarterback Cam Ward will, in all likelihood, already be off the board as the No. 1 overall pick by the Titans.
Here are the current Bet365 NFL Draft odds for which overall pick Sanders will be selected, along with which team currently holds that pick (subject to change via trades):
- No. 1 pick, Tennessee Titans (+4000)
- No. 2 pick, Cleveland Browns (+700)
- No. 3 pick, New York Giants (+160)
- No. 4 pick, New England Patriots (+2500)
- No. 5 pick, Jacksonville Jaguars (+3000)
1st QB Selected Odds
Bet365 also has odds for the first quarterback selected in the 2025 NFL draft. Here are the top five candidates:
- Cameron Ward, Miami (-5000)
- Shedeur Sanders, Colorado (+1000)
- Jaxson Dart, Ole Miss (+4000)
- Jalen Milroe, Alabama (+7500)
- Quinn Ewers, Texas (+7500)
This is clearly a battle between Ward and Sanders at this point. Ward has implied odds of over 98% right now to be the first quarterback selected in the 2025 NFL Draft. But getting Sanders at +1000 odds could be a bold way of using your $1,000 First Bet Safety Net at Bet365.
However, if he does pass Ward for the top quarterback selected in the draft, it would probably mean Shedeur Sanders is going No. 1 overall. So, you’d be better off taking the +4000 odds on that, as we’ve observed in the NFL Draft Overall Pick market above.
2nd QB Selected Odds
Here are the NFL Draft odds from Bet365 on which quarterback will be second off the board:
- Shedeur Sanders, Colorado (-1200)
- Jaxson Dart, Ole Miss (+800)
- Cameron Ward, Miami (+1400)
- Jalen Milroe, Alabama (+8000)
- Quinn Ewers, Texas (+8000)
Sanders is the heavy favorite to be the second quarterback drafted, so there’s not much value in placing a bet on -1200 odds. If there’s a sleeper pick here, it could be Jaxson Dart. Teams like the Saints (No. 9 pick) and Steelers (No. 21 pick) might prefer him over Sanders.
Which Team Will Draft Shedeur Sanders?
Some have speculated on a Shedeur Sanders NFL draft trade if he goes to a team his father disapproves of, like Cleveland. That would take a page from the Manning family playbook when the Chargers drafted Eli in 2004, forcing a trade to the Giants. John Elway also famously burned the Colts in 1983 to go to Denver instead.
But that might be harder to do if you’re not the No. 1 overall pick. Expect Shedeur Sanders to go to a quarterback-needy team. At the moment, these are the teams most likely to draft Sanders:
- Tennessee Titans
- Cleveland Browns
- New York Giants
- Las Vegas Raiders
When Bet365 pushed these odds two weeks ago, the Giants were -200, Cleveland was +400, and The Field was +1000. That will look different now that the Giants have Russell Wilson and Jameis Winston on decent-sized contracts for 2025.
As of now, though, we like the Raiders, Saints, or Steelers as the landing spot for Sanders if the Giants opt to draft a different position, which is possible now that they've signed two veterans to fill their quarterback void.
Shedeur Sanders NFL Draft Betting Tips
We know the Jaguars (Trevor Lawrence) and Patriots (Drake Maye) are unlikely to draft Sanders, given their investments in franchise quarterbacks in recent drafts. The Titans are also heavily favored to go with Miami’s Cam Ward with the No. 1 overall pick, but you can’t rule out there’s decent value here if they choose Sanders instead.
The Giants are the betting favorite with +160 odds, but there’s some doubt cast on this pairing now that the team has signed veteran starters like Jameis Winston and Russell Wilson. It could be a sign that they’re out of the quarterback market at No. 3 and may have their eyes set on another star Colorado prospect, Travis Hunter, instead.
The Browns look like the best value pick here, as owner Jimmy Haslam all but released Deshaun Watson this week by heavily criticizing the failure of that trade. The Browns could use a new franchise quarterback, and while they traded for Kenny Pickett from the Eagles, that doesn't seem to be a long-term answer. The team is also meeting privately with Sanders this week, which could determine if he is a fit for the franchise or not.
However, the best Shedeur Sanders NFL Draft bet could be “Over 3.5” as Sanders’ draft position. It has -200 odds at Bet365, implying he will go with the No. 4 pick or later. But remember, there could be late action on the trade block as teams desperate for a quarterback try to make a move.
