Will Levis’ odds to be the first pick of the NFL Draft are skyrocketing, and it appears to be tied back to a random Reddit post.
Levis has long been viewed as a lock to go in the first round, but conventional thinking for weeks has Bryce Young as the first player off the board to the Panthers.
Odds were even taken down on DraftKings because it was viewed as such a longshot. That all changed as of Tuesday morning.
A random Reddit post went viral from u/SaleAgreeable2834 claiming Will Levis has told his family the Panthers are taking him first overall Thursday night.
His odds of being the first overall pick were +4000 in the previous DraftKings odds. He’s currently sitting at +500 as of Tuesday morning on DraftKings and +600 on FanDuel. His odds had been as high as +400.
