We break down the betting market for the first defensive player selected in the 2024 NFL Draft.
NYC court warns media to behave or risk getting kicked out of 'historic' Trump 'hush money' trial as ex-prez arrivesUnlike in previous drafts, there isn’t a runaway favorite for which defensive player will come off the board first when the draft commences with the first round Thursday night.Understanding how the top of the draft order is likely to play out is crucial to handicapping this market.
The current odds have them priced at -210 to take a defensive lineman or edge defender at DraftKings. The cornerback position comes in second at +190. Having just turned 21 in February, Turner is still learning the ropes at the edge-rusher position. His pass-rush tool kit lacks the necessary counters and consistent hand usage to find elite sack production in the NFL. However, you simply can’t teach his closing burst and explosiveness to beat offensive tackles off the line of scrimmage.With 80th percentile or better wingspan and arm length, Turner has the necessary physical traits to be a high-level NFL edge rusher.
On the surface, Latu lacks ideal traits, weighing 259 pounds and with 32 5/8-inch arms . However, that didn’t seem to affect his production last season. That said, Latu’s draft stock is difficult to assess due to his medical history. In 2020, he suffered a neck injury in preseason workouts while playing for Washington, and the team’s medical staff told him he would never play again. Latu medically retired following neck-fusion surgery, before making his triumphant return to UCLA in 2022 and dominating his senior season in 2023.Washington’s defensive coordinator at the time of Latu’s injury was Jimmy Lake, the new Falcons defensive coordinator.
