2025 NFL Combine Betting Guide: Top Prop Bets
QB Jalen Milroe under 4.42 (PrizePicks)
One of the best traits that Jalen Milroe possesses is his legs.
It's well-established Alabama's Jalen Milroe has 𝙂𝘼𝙈𝙀-𝘾𝙃𝘼𝙉𝙂𝙄𝙉𝙂 speed for the position. We're talking Lamar & Michael Vick level wheels.
On this 72-yard TD, @JalenMilroe hit 22.5 mph ?'? for our data partners at @TelemetrySports, which equates to 4.3 40 time. Milroe's... https://t.co/Ww78wlZpRg pic.twitter.com/KCcbThSK6H

The Alabama quarterback knows he can do wonders for his draft stock with a strong athletic performance on Saturday. That should start with a strong outing in the 40-yard dash.

RB TreVeyon Henderson under 4.41 (PrizePicks / Underdog)
🚀 NFL Combine RB Speed Projections Are In!
Using our In-Game Athleticism® data, here are the expected top 10 40-yard dash times for the RB prospects at the Scouting Combine.
🥇Jaydon Blue 4.37-4.39
🥈Marcus Yarns 4.38-4.40
🥈Brashard Smith 4.38-4.40
🥈Raheim Sanders 4.38-4.40 pic.twitter.com/XPxTRZljMj— Reel Analytics (@RAanalytics) February 27, 2025
Per Reel Analytics, Henderson is projected to run a 4.39-4.41 40-yard dash at the NFL Combine. The fact that he has also been clocked over 21 mph numerous times leads me to smash the under for Henderson's 40-yard time. The former Buckeye ranked tenth in breakaway run rate last year (per PFF) and should have no problem breaking some stopwatches in Indy.

Dylan Sampson over 4.39 (Underdog)
Yes, I know Sampson reportedly ran a 4.32 40 in high school. No, I'm not crazy for betting the over for his 4.39. Hear me out. Sampson was clocked at 22-23 mph per Catapult. I couldn't find a published run per Reel Analytics with Sampson eclipsing 21 mph. Reel Analytics also published their top 10 projected 40-yard dash times for running backs, with the highest time coming in at 4.43 (Bayshul Tuten).
Sampson didn't find his name inside the top 10. There are moments in Sampson's film where he is caught behind by defenders on long runs and has had higher than a 36.4% breakaway run rate over the last two collegiate seasons. There's enough uncertainty in the analytics and the film to avoid the public consensus and hit the over for Sampson.

WR Isaiah Bond under 4.32 (PrizePicks)
If there is any WR that can run the fastest 40-yard dash and usurp Arian Smith as the fastest, it's Isaiah Bond. The Texas WR is one of the fastest WRs in this year's draft class. Like Smith, he has a prolific track background. University of Texas coaches told Sports Illustrated, Albert Breer, that Bond will run in the 4.2-second range in Indy. He also thinks highly of himself to blaze the track on Saturday.

He is +340 to win the event

Omarion Hampton under 4.46 (Underdog)
Omarion Hampton appeared on our CFB's Fastest Players List 3 times in 2024, clocking 21+ mph 2 out of the 3 times.
With a projected 4.42-4.44 (per our tracking data) and a 98.2 In-Game Athleticism® Score, Hampton's traits are worthy of RB1 #IGAScore pic.twitter.com/lY76DyKDdS
— Reel Analytics (@RAanalytics) February 22, 2025
Hampton's line looks high. Per Reel Analytics, he has been the author of numerous runs of at least 21 mph. Hampton's GPS times have been stout, and per Reel Analytics, he is projected to run between 4.42-4.44 in the 40-yard dash. Hampton could easily coast under this number in Indy.

RB Jaydon Blue under 4.36 (Underdog / PrizePicks)
"I think I'll break the 40 record...4.1 or 4.20"
– Texas RB Jaydon Blue

Trust the process (and very confident RBs and WRs from Texas).
– Andrew Erickson
RB Quinshon Judkins under 4.51 (PrizePicks / Underdog)
According to Reel Analytics, the Ohio State RB hit a top-end speed of 21.1 mph in Week 4, which projects to a 4.44-4.46 40-yard dash time. Quinshon Judkins has previously been indicated to have run a 4.49 on his record.
**Update: Judkin’s line has moved to 4.46 on Prizepicks and Underdog. At those these values, I would avoid this bet unless it moves back to the 4.5 range.*
