Predictions and Odds of Top Sooners Turned NFL Playmakers

With 35 former Oklahoma players now playing in the league, there are plenty of juicy Sooner-based bets available to football gamblers for this upcoming 2020 season, and here we take a look at the predictions and odds of some of the top ones.

Keep in mind the odds in these wagers will shift plenty of times before the actual games are played, so be sure to check back here often to get all the latest numbers.

Baker Mayfield, Quarterback, Cleveland Browns

After a record-setting rookie year, Mayfield had a tough 2019 season due to a poor offensive line and some questionable play-calling and leadership from his rookie head coach, but those troubles have presumably been settled this offseason so Baker should be able to take advantage of the many offensive playmakers (Odell Beckham, Jarvis Landry) at his disposal.

Joe Mixon, Running Back, Cincinnati Bengals

Mixon will play a critical role (again) for the Bengals as they get their rookie star quarterback Joe Burrow ready for the NFL, with a stellar 1,100+ yard run the game from Mixon essential (he’s done it the last two seasons) to keeping defenses from bum-rushing the new guy and keeping him from properly developing.

Sterling Shepard, Wide Receiver, New York Giants

New York has given their young quarterback Daniel Jones a new head coach (Joe Judge) and a new OC (Jason Garrett) plus two impressive targets to throw footballs at in 2020 – Sterling Shepard and Golden Tate – though both will have to fight for the attention given that the Giants’ offense is rightly centered around star running back Saquon Barkley.

Kyler Murray, Quarterback, Arizona Cardinals

Things couldn’t be sweeter for Murray in Arizona now that he has both Larry Fitzgerald and DeAndre Hopkins to target as receivers, that is if rookie right tackle Josh Jones is up to the task of protecting the talented “height challenged” QB who looks ready for a breakout season.

CeeDee Lamb, Wide Receiver, Dallas Cowboys

Talk about a lucky pick – the Cowboys somehow got receiver Lamb in the first round with the 17th pick, and now he gets to be on a team with arguably one of the best QB’s in the league, Dak Prescott, who will be looking to impress this season on his way to shedding his franchise tag for a long term, high paying deal from owner Jerry Jones.
