- Odds have been released on where the second-tier quarterbacks will be drafted.
- Davis Mills projected to be first QB taken of the bunch with Kellen Mond following.
- Jamie Newman and Ian Book projected to go later.
CLEVELAND – The 2021 NFL Draft starts on Thursday, April 29, and while all the talk is on the guys like Trevor Lawrence, Zach Wilson, Justin Fields, Trey Lance and Mac Jones, there are also betting props on the second-tier of quarterbacks.
Betting odds have been released for the exact draft position for Davis Mills, Kellen Mond, Jamie Newman and Ian Book. The hot conversation is amongst the top QBs, but the second-tier of QBs might be where the money is.
Davis Mills Draft Selection: O/U 60.5
Davis Mills, the Stanford product, is projected to be the first QB taken of the bunch with his draft selection line placed at 60. 5.
Davis Mills Draft Selection Betting Odds
- Over 60.5 (-120)
- Under 60.5 (-120)
This would place Mills around the bottom of the second round. Recently, Mills has been gaining a lot of momentum, with some analysts predicting a first-round draft selection.
Following the analyst’s trends, the Under might be the best play for betting purposes. However, analysts aren’t always the most accurate in predicting the draft.
Kellen Mond Draft Selection: O/U 72.5
Kellen Mond is fresh off of an incredibly productive year at Texas A&M and has gained traction heading in to the 2021 NFL Draft. This would place Mond in the top half of the third round.
Kellen Mond Draft Selection Betting Odds
- Over 72.5 (-150)
- Under 72.5 (+110)
Chris Simms, who has been incredibly accurate in predicting quarterbacks recently, ranks Kellen Mond as the No. 4 QB in the draft, ahead of Justin Fields and Trey Lance.
The Bears have been rumored to be a big fan of Mond’s game and currently hold picks 20, 52, and 83, but could definitely trade up to get their guy if the opportunity arises. The plus money on the Under could be some of the best NFL Draft odds to take.

Jamie Newman Draft Selection: O/U 170.5
Jamie Newman’s draft selection betting line is set at 170.5 which would spot him near the middle of the fifth round of the draft. Newman sat out of college football last year, but has had an up and down career. His last season playing college football was for the Wake Forest Demon Deacons.
He’s been inconsistent but has shown flashes of excellence. It’s just a matter of when a team is willing to take a shot on him.
Jamie Newman Draft Selection Odds
- Over 170.5 (-125)
- Under 170.5 (-115)
Ian Book Draft Selection: O/U 209.5
Ian Book’s draft selection betting line is set at 209.5, or the middle of the sixth round. Book is an older prospect, but has had success in college. He was able to lead the Notre Dame Fighting Irish to the College Football Playoffs last season and has started for the team the past three seasons.
Book finished his career as the winningest QB in the history of the school as well as a Manning Award Finalist and Maxwell Award Semifinalist. Even so, he’s likely to go either in the sixth or seventh road which the NFL Draft odds odds reflect.
Ian Book Draft Selection Betting Odds
- Over 209.5 (-140)
- Under 209.5 (+100)
Given all of his accomplishments at the collegiate level while playing for one of the biggest name brands in the sport, some teams might be willing to take a chance on him earlier. While the Under may not be a lock, it is something to consider when betting on the Draft.
