Welcome to Fantasy Points Best Bets: NFL Draft Props Edition. This will be the main hub for our staff’s favorite bets for the 2020 NFL Draft being held virtually on April 23-25. Be sure to check in a couple of times before the start of the draft to see what bets our staff likes the most.
We’ll be adding a Best Bets article for our favorite NFL Futures wagers this summer. That article will include our favorite wagers for season win totals, division/conference/Super Bowl winners, season-long player props, and award winners.
And of course, you’ll want to subscribe to have access to our Best Bets article throughout the 2020 season. Our staff will give their favorite spread, total, and player prop bets every week during the season through the Super Bowl.
Our Best Bets are available free for the time being, but you’ll want to purchase our Premium Package to have access to it during the season.
