The 2026 NFL Draft is days away! Rather than just sit around and wait to see who your team takes, why not cash some bets? There are plenty of different things to pick through on the books right now. This includes the over/under on certain players’ draft positions. Let’s take a look at some of my favorite NFL player over/under draft position bets.
2026 NFL Draft Player Over/Under Draft Position Bets
KC Concepcion (Over 24.5 +110/Under 24.5 -140)
The first player to discuss the over/under draft position for our NFL draft bets is KC Concepcion. Concepcion made a lot of big plays for Texas A&M. However, he seems like a player who will be more of a compliment WR2 type of guy rather than a WR1.
His current over/under draft position is 24.5. He’s visited with a lot of teams picking in the top 24 picks. However, I don’t think they take a first-round stab at a guy just based on his play-making ability. There are plenty of playmakers in the draft. Concepcion may be the best, but I think he’ll slide a little due to his lack of being a true NFL WR1. Therefore, I like over 24.5 at +110.
Carnell Tate (Over 7.5 -125/Under 7.5 -105)
While we’re talking about wide receivers for the over/under draft position of our NFL draft bets, let’s talk about Carnell Tate. There is no doubt in my mind that Tate is a WR1 and teams are viewing him that way. His current over/under is at a draft position of 7.5.
Tate has met with many of the teams picking in the Top-10. A lot of those teams could use a receiver like him as well. This is one that I think the books are slightly off on because if the Giants don’t end up nabbing him at five, then the Browns do at six. Both teams could really use his talents. Give me under 7.5 at -105.
Kenyon Sadiq (Over 15.5 +115/Under 15.5 -150)
I one hundred percent expect Oregon tight end Kenyon Sadiq to go in the first round. Looking at the books, his current top teams to be drafted by are the Panthers (+300) and the Bucs (+300). His over/under draft position to consider for our bets is 15.5.
The Bucs pick at spot 15, which makes this one tough. In fact, you could blend bets here, and take Sadiq to be taken by the Bucs at +300, and take his over 15.5 and cash at least one of them. Regardless of how you approach it, I like the over. I think the Bucs focus on the trenches with their first pick, letting Sadiq fall into the hands of the Panthers. I’m taking over 15.5 at +115.
Rueben Bain Jr. (Over 8.5 -230/Under 8.5 +230)
There’s been a lot of buzz about Rueben Bain Jr. due to an accident that happened over two years ago. Why the news is coming out now is just the media at its worst. It does appear the books are buying into the news, causing him to slide, since his draft position is now at 8.5 with the over very heavily juiced.
This is a great spot to get a good price for your NFL draft bets, though. Yes, the news is coming out now, but the teams already knew about the situation. While there is speculation that they are now considering how fans will react to a team taking him, I don’t buy it. When’s the last time an NFL owner truly cared about what the fans think?
The Titans are sitting with pick number four and could use an edge rusher. Robert Saleh loves defenders with high motors, and Bain has one of the highest. He’s incredibly talented, and I don’t see him sliding past pick eight. I don’t even see him sliding past pick four, to be honest. Give me under 8.5 at +230.
Omar Cooper Jr. (Over 23.5 +150/Under 23.5 -200)
The last player to discuss for our NFL draft bets is Omar Cooper Jr. The Indiana receiver is currently sitting at a draft position over/under of 23.5, with the under juiced. I’m not sure I get the pricing. There are a lot of decent wide receivers in this draft, and while Omar Cooper Jr. is one of the top guys, I don’t necessarily view him as a game-changer.
In my latest mock, I have him going at the very start of the second round. I don’t think that’s a stretch. He feels like a really good pick right towards the end of the first round or the start of the second. Therefore, 23.5 seems a little high for him.
There are a lot of teams picking in the top 23 picks that need receiver help. However, I don’t know if they’ll spend a top pick on one. Therefore, I like Cooper Jr. to go over 23.5 at +150.
