It isn't really 3500 to one though...Bovada posts a little wonky. This would actually be paying pack 35 to 1.
Looking at that list is exactly why DF should've returned. The 2018 RB class is much less accomplished and touted than this year's group. No doubt DF would've been the top RB on the preseason Heisman list. Another stellar season and he'd surely been the #1 RB entering the 2018 NFL draft. Sure he'll still go 3rd to 5th (Fournette and Cook are guaranteed above) at the position this year, but he could've been the RB gem next year.
