Betting on RG3 and the NFL Draft? Sure, why not?

The gambling world is an odd, dangerous beast. So odd that on Bovada you can bet on who will pick Baylor quarterback Robert Griffin III in the 2012 NFL Draft.

The site has the Cleveland Browns at even odds, followed by the Washington Redskins (+400), Miami Dolphins (+350), Buffalo Bills (+500) and Seattle Seahawks (+800). If you're not down with the +/- stuff, that would be Browns 1/1, Redskins 3/1, Dolphins 7/2, Bills 5/1, and Seahawks 8/1.

Why stop there, though? The site also has bets on the second overall pick. They are:

Will Southern California offensive tackle Matt Kalil be the No. 2 pick? Yes (+350) or No (-600).

Will Oklahoma State wide receiver Justin Blackmon be in the No. 2 pick? Yes (+250) or No (-400).

Of course, these odds could drastically change when the St. Louis Rams, owners of the No. 2 pick, select a new general manager. If you decide on putting some money down on these bets, you may want to start religiously following Turf Show Times for the latest Rams news.

We’ll be doing our annual betting here at MtD with mock draft and Mr. Irrelevant contests. Special note: I’ve yet to lose the mock draft contest and no one has won the Mr. Irrelevant contest.

He’s a bit of a liability in the run game, but his potential in the pass game was enough for Buffalo Rumblings.

It’s a high-potential pick for a Detroit defense that needs a solid pass rusher.
