Gardner is now given +275 odds to go third overall, that’s an implied 26.7% chance. He’s now second only to Ikem Ekwonu, who saw his odds lengthen from +150 to +200. Evan Neal also saw his odds lengthen from +250 to +300.
That puts him squarely in the picture to go third overall. Meanwhile, fellow DB Kyle Hamilton saw a massive fall off. He was previously given +550 odds but is now sitting at +1400. So, he no longer seems to be in play.

The Texans have quickly become the point where the draft gets interesting. With Hutchinson and Walker seemingly locked in at one and two in some order, the Texans become the draft’s turning point. Long presumed to be on one of the OTs or EDGE, oddsmakers have quickly changed their tune to add in Sauce Gardner. Making that selection would throw everything out of whack. With Neal and Ekwonu both given an over/under of 3.5 and Thibodeaux given an over/under at 5.5. If Gardner goes early, currently 7.5, then it could mean all three of Ekwonu, Neal, and Thibodeaux hit their overs.
