Just because there is no legal betting on the NFL Draft in Pennsylvania, it doesn’t mean there is no action. A number of PA online sportsbooks have ways for users to play along for the chance to win a part of big cash prize pools.
There is always the option of futures bets. It’s safe to assume the Offensive and Defensive Rookie of the Year will be selected since no undrafted rookie has ever won the award.
