David Bailey to be drafted second overall (+275)
After the Las Vegas Raiders select Fernando Mendoza first overall on Thursday night as expected, all eyes will turn to the New York Jets, who own the second pick in the NFL Draft.
This time last week, Bailey — a 6-foot-3 defensive end from Texas Tech — was favored to go second. A couple of weeks prior to that, Ohio State standout Arvell Reese was favored to be the Jets’ pick. Now, the odds have swung back to Reese once again, and many believe he will be the choice.
While there is support in the betting market for Reese going off the board here, it’s far from unanimous.
Many of the top-respected mock drafts still have the Jets nabbing Bailey, and there’s been enough waffling by the others to make me believe this is more of a coin flip than these odds suggest.
Bailey had 14.5 sacks in his final collegiate season, and could prove to be an elite edge rusher at the next level. Getting him at almost 3/1 odds and considering the uncertainty here regarding this pick, it's worth a shot.
