  • FanDuel, DraftKings set odds for top ten picks in 2023 NFL Draft
  • Bryce Young prohibitive favorite for top overall pick to Carolina
  • Peter Skoronski leads odds for Philadelphia’s 10th overall pick

With the expansion of sports betting in Pennsylvania and other states, betting on the NFL Draft has grown in popularity. Odds for Thursday’s first round in Kansas City have been set at PA online sports betting sites like DraftKings and FanDuel with Alabama’s QB Bryce Young set at the favorite for the top overall selection. 

With Carolina, owner of the number one pick, desperate for a quarterback, Young holds -2400 odds at FanDuel and -2000 at DraftKings. Three other quarterbacks, Ohio State’s CJ Stroud, Kentucky’s Will Levis, and Florida’s Anthony Richardson, are just behind Young in odds but all are considered longshots to be selected by the Panthers.

Although the Pittsburgh Steelers select at 17th overall and do not have odds for their pick, the Philadelphia Eagles hold two first round draft pick in 2023, including the 10th overall pick.

Skoronski Leads Pick 10 Odds for Philadelphia Eagles

Even with their appearance in this year’s Super Bowl, the Eagles own the 10th pick of this year NFL Draft due to a previous trade with New Orleans. The Eagles also own the 30th overall pick and will look to bolster their offensive and defensive line in the 1st round.

Currently, Northwestern offensive tackle Peter Skoronoski is the odds-on favorite to be chosen at 10th overall according to DraftKings and FanDuel. Next in line is Paris Johnson Jr., an offensive tackle from Ohio State. Johnson Jr. holds better value at FanDuel at +400 for bettors, than the +300 given at DraftKings.

If Philadelphia decides to go defense with the 10th pick, PA sports betting outlets are making two Georgia teammates as the odds-on favorite. Nolan Smith and Jalen Carter, two stars from the National Champion Georgia defense, hold odds around +500 at both sportsbooks.

When it comes to darkhorse picks, the Eagles could get flashy and choose Texas RB Bijan Robinson, adding a dynamic dual-threat to the stellar Philadelphia offense.
