- Since 2000, Kyle Pitts is the highest drafted tight end in the NFL Draft.
- This century, only eight tight ends heard their names in the first half of the first round.
- A tight end has gone in the first round in two straight and three of the last four years.
Likely for the third straight year, a tight end is projected to go in the first round based on NFL Draft odds.Â
Oddsmakers list Penn State tight end Tyler Warren as a heavy favorite to be the first tight end selected. Warren also sits as an odds-on favorite (-160) to hear his name in the first 10 picks.Â
Last year, the Raiders selected Brock Bowers with the 13th overall pick. For Warren, he’ll eclipse that benchmark if odds hold, but a lot needs to happen for Warren to break Kyle Pitts’ record.Â
Here’s a look at Warren’s props for the NFL Draft 2025 and the highest drafted tight ends this century.Â
NFL Draft Odds: Tyler Warren Prop Bets
- To be a Top-5 Pick: +3000
- To be a Top-10 Pick: -160
- First Tight End Selected: -1000
- Seventh Overall Pick Exactly: +325
