The Broncos are now favorites to land Deshaun Watson according to FanDuel |

Don’t quit the Deshaun Watson Broncos Country contest yet. In FanDuel’s updated odds for which team Watson is most likely to play, the Denver Broncos are now the favorites.

This is huge for several reasons. FanDuel punters hadn’t given the Broncos that chance to land Watson until today. But it’s particularly impressive because it’s also the first time in weeks that the Houston Texans haven’t been the favorites.

The Broncos are also the fastest team in the draw according to punters. When FanDuel first released its odds, the Broncos were listed at +1000. On the 15th, they were listed at +300. As of Thursday, they are now listed at +150.

Behind the Broncos in FanDuel odds are the Texans (+300), Dolphins (+350) and Panthers (+400).

Following the FanDuel odds update, BetFred Sports also has the Broncos as +150 favorites to land Watson. Meanwhile, DraftKings have also moved Denver up in their rankings, although they don’t have them as favorites yet. DraftKings currently has the Texans as favorites (+200), followed by the Panthers (+300), ranked ahead of the Broncos (+400).

One of the reasons for Denver’s increased odds could be yesterday’s report from NFL Network’s James Palmer, who said the Broncos would not leave Drew Lock for someone who isn’t a much better option. like Watson.

“As far as I know, that’s what I understood, that they’re going to go after Deshaun Watson if he wants to become available and they’re going to be aggressive,” Palmer reported. “What I understand is this; There is a group of top quarterbacks that are really changing your franchise. . . this group, they are interested in being aggressive. The next group, I heard things like, “They’re not interested in Carson Wentz. They are lukewarm on the rest of this group.

It feels like you’re Watson or Lock for the 2021 season.
