Vegas Odds on NFL Draft: Sin City Allowed to Start Taking Bets in 2017

Great news for sports bettors living in Las Vegas and those visiting during the NFL Draft.  Sportsbooks located there have now been given the green light to start offering betting odds on the NFL Draft.

For years now online gambling sites have enjoyed some degree of wagering action on the NFL Draft and Vegas appears to have taken notice.

William Hill, with over 100 sports books in and around Las Vegas, has begun taking money on some of the 17 proposition bets that Nevada gambling regulators have approved on the draft.  This will exclude which player is selected number one overall, though such odds can still be found online.
