- The Indianapolis Colts are favored at +450 odds to select Jordan Love with their first selection.
- Indianapolis does not own any first-round picks.
- The Colts own two second-round picks.
INDIANAPOLIS — Jordan Love is the new favorite to be selected first by the Indianapolis Colts when they are on the clock. Bettors should not hold their breath on this as they would have to wait until the second round for it to play out. These odds are still a bit long.
The Race For Love
This betting line is surprising for two reasons. First, the Colts do not own any first-round picks as they traded their 13th overall pick to the 49ers in return for DeForest Buckner. Second of all, they just signed Philip Rivers to step in as the starting quarterback.
Online sportsbooks currently have Jordan Love as the favorite to land with the Colts at +450. The problem with this is that they would have to wait the entirety of the first round in order to select the Utah State product with the second pick in the second round.
Realistically, Love is expected to be selected late in the first round. He has been linked to the Miami Dolphins who could surprise everyone and take him with the 18th pick if they do not select a quarterback early on in the round.

Backtracking to the Philip Rivers situation, if Jordan Love were to land with the Colts, he would more than likely not be starting right away. He would get the opportunity to learn from a great quarterback like Rivers until his time to start comes. It would be an ideal situation for a Colts team that is on the horizon of becoming a very strong team.
