Teams across the league are finalizing their draft boards as the 2022 NFL Draft kicks off on Thursday, April 28. It's unclear who will be taken first overall, as there are multiple players who are being considered. However, in a surprising turn of events, a new face becomes the betting favorite to become the Jacksonville Jaguars' first pick in the draft.

According to FanDual, Travon Walker is now the favorite to be selected first overall. PMS Odds goes on to show how drastic of a chance this is, as Aidan Hutchinson was the favorite on Friday. The Jaguars have been rumored to be interested in Walker, but these betting odds indicate Jacksonville might be willing to take him first overall in the NFL Draft.

Many have Aidan Hutchinson pegged as the top player in the draft this year. He has the potential to be a superstar athlete and be the face of a franchise. However, it sounds like the Jaguars are enamored by Travon Walker and could take him with their first pick. If that's the case, then the 2022 NFL Draft will kick off with an early twist.

This is a decision the Jaguars need to hit on. The fan base has been vocal about their displeasure with how the franchise is being run. Taking the wrong prospect could be detrimental, especially if he doesn't pan out. Aidan Hutchinson seems like the safest bet, especially for an organization that has lacked stability for years.

Many teams love Travon Walker, however, he's not as polished as Hutchinson. Walker likely needs some development and adjusting to the professional level. If the Jaguars go this route, they are making a risky decision. However, if Walker ends up being a superstar pass rusher, then Jacksonville will look like geniuses for taking him first overall.

We'll see how it plays out, as the Jaguars are officially on the clock on Thursday, April 28.
