Jimmy Clausen is expected to be the 2010 NFL Draft second pick for quarterback but experts still question where the Notre Dame player will ultimately end up.

Predictions from the Chicago Tribune:

He could go as high as No. 4 to the Redskins, though that would be a surprise. If he slips past the 49ers at 13 or 17 (they have two first-round picks), he could fall near the bottom of the first round, perhaps to the 30th spot where the Vikings could use him as a young apprentice or retirement insurance policy for Brett Favre.

The other most likely teams to take Clausen are the Raiders at 8, the Bills at 9 and the Jaguars at 10.

Ending up with the Washington Redskins would really boost that team's value.  They were a remarkable 8/1 long shot to win the 2011 NFC Championship at Sportsbetting.com (see website here) even with Donovan McNabb. 

Odds on where Jimmy Clausen will be selected in the draft were available at Sportsbetting.com and appear below:

10th-12th PICK 13/10

13th or Later PICK 2/1

1st-5th PICK 10/1

6th-9th PICK 2/3
