NFL Draft Odds: Aidan Hutchinson Given a 71% Chance to be First Overall Pick
It's April, and the focus in the NFL has shifted from free agency to the NFL Draft. It's been a little quiet on the trade front, so instead, we will transition and focus today on the NFL Draft odds and more specifically the first overall pick.
For the second year in a row, Jacksonville holds the first overall pick. Last year, the Jaguars selected Trevor Lawrence so will they build around him on the offense with the first pick or go for a star on defense? The NFL Draft odds tell us that the Jaguars are likely to go on the defensive side of the board.

Aidan Hutchinson -250 (Bet $250 to win $100)
Aidan Hutchinson is given a 71.43% chance of going off the board first to the Jacksonville Jaguars. It's easy to see why Aidan Hutchinson was an absolute stud at Michigan this past year for Jim Harbaugh.
In 14 games this year, Hutchinson as a senior put up an impressive 14.5 sacks and 16.5 tackles for a loss. On top of those impressive numbers add two forced fumbles and a fumble recovery too.

Not only was his production impressive in college but he also tested extremely well at the NFL combine.
For a while, some thought that the Jaguars would go offensive line early but after Cam Robinson was franchise tagged, tackle seems out of the question. On the defensive line, they have Josh Allen on the edge but K'Lavon Chaisson has been a swing and a miss on that position so they need more there.
Aidan Hutchinson is all but a lock to go number one overall on draft night.
