Kenny Pickett First Quarterback Selected in 2022 NFL Draft
NFL Draft 2022 betting reaction: Pittsburgh's Kenny Pickett is the first quarterback selected in the NFL Draft.
It may not be as soon as some expected, but we have our first quarterback off the board.
Many people believed it would be Liberty's Malik Willis that would be the first QB selected, but the Pittsburgh Steelers opted for Pitt quarterback Kenny Pickett with the 20th overall pick.
Willis closed as -220 at WynnBET to be the first signal caller off the board, and Pickett was second on the odds list at +140.
WOW!!

Kenny Pickett to Remain in Pittsburgh
Pickett going to the Steelers is only natural. He's a product of the University of Pittsburgh, and will now get to stay in the area and play for the Steelers.
If you saw this coming, you could have cashed a +400 ticket at WynnBET for the Steelers to be the team to draft the former Pitt panther.
The Steelers were +400 via @WynnBET to draft Kenny Pickett.

He will now join a crowded Steelers QB room that includes Mason Rudolph and new acquisition, Mitch Trubisky.
Ahead of the NFL Draft, the Steelers were +7500 (bet $100 to win $7,500) to win Super Bowl 57.
