Football Betting Lines

10/23/2007 - Philadelphia, PA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The National Football League announced it's moving back the start time of the draft for next year and will give teams less time to select a player in the first round.

The draft will start at 3 p.m. (et), three hours later than originally scheduled. Also, there will be 10 minutes between picks instead of the normal 15, this after the opening round lasted more than six hours in 2007.

In Round 2, the selection time has been shortened to seven minutes from 10 minutes.

The first two rounds will take place on the first day of the draft, scheduled for Saturday, April, 26, 2008. Previously, the first three rounds of the draft were conducted on Saturday.

"We believe these changes will make for a more streamlined and efficient draft," NFL commissioner Roger Goodell said at a league meeting in Philadelphia.

Rounds 3-7 will be conducted on Sunday, with each selection allocated five minutes. The draft on Sunday will begin at 10 a.m. (et), an hour earlier than in years past.

LaDainian Tomlinson Favorite to be 2007 NFL MVP

With the first NFL preseason game less than two weeks away, it is time to start thinking about football once again at MySportsbook.com. Reigning NFL MVP LaDainian Tomlinson is currently the 5-1 co-favorite to win the award again alongside Super Bowl MVP Peyton Manning.

This shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone after his all out assault on the record books last season. For those suffering from amnesia or were under a rock last football season, all L.T. did last season was set the NFL record for rushing touchdowns (28), total touchdowns (31) and total points scored (186) to go along with his 1815 rushing yards and 508 receiving yards. At 6-1, Tom Brady is next in line which isn’t surprising considering all of the firepower the Pats added over the off-season. With the addition of Randy Moss, Donte Stallworth and Wes Welker; it would be quite difficult for Brady’s numbers not to improve from last years 3529 yards and 24 touchdowns. There appears to be some decent value in Drew Bees at 10-1 considering he probably would have won the award last year if it wasn’t for L.T.’s record breaking season.

There is no reason to think the Saints will come back to earth this season and playing in a weak NFC, they should have as good a shot as any to represent the NFC in the Super Bowl. At 15-1, Donovan McNabb could also be worth a look. Remember, many felt he was the MVP of the first half of the season before going down with a season ending injury. Reportedly, he is in great shape and well ahead of schedule to return to form. Also, he could have some added motivation to put up big numbers this season with the Eagles using their first pick in the draft on McNabb’s future successor Kevin Kolb.
