Number of Running Backs Taken in Round 1 Over 0.5 -360 – Word came out yesterday that Alabama’s Mark Ingram has gotten a clean bill of health from Dr. James Andrews, who is always a good man to get a clean bill of health from. Someone is going to take Ingram in the first round in all likelihood, and we just don’t see him slipping out even 20% of the time. It’s a chalky proposition, but the NFL Picks are definitely on our side for at least one man toting the rock to get drafted in Round 1.

MLB Picks: Los Angeles Dodgers vs Chicago Cubs

Chicago Cubs vs Los Angeles Dodgers MLB Picks: The Los Angeles Dodgers (11-11) and the Chicago Cubs (10-10) split the first two of their of three games at historic Wrigley Field this weekend, and the winner of Sunday’s nationally televised MLB betting affair will win the series.

LA has already plated 20 runs in the first two games of this series, which is a far cry from the 3.40 runs per game that it was putting up per game before this one got underway. Still, this isn’t a unit with much to be proud of offensively at this point, which is going to put a heck of a lot of pressure on Hiroki Kuroda to pitch well to finish the deal in the Windy City.

Chicago White Sox vs Tampa Bay Rays MLB Free Picks

Tampa Bay Rays vs Chicago White Sox MLB Picks: After a horrific start, the Tampa Bay Rays are now 9-9 on the year. The Rays have won nine of their last ten games overall. They will be looking to finish off a four game sweep over the White Sox on Thursday.

The White Sox have now lost seven straight games overall. This game will be shown on the MLB Network at 6:40 eastern on Thursday evening.

Atlanta Braves vs Los Angeles Dodgers Free MLB Picks

Los Angeles Dodgers vs Atlanta Braves MLB Picks: The Los Angeles Dodgers and the Atlanta Braves both entered this series with a 7-9 mark, but it was the Dodgers who got the series started with a 4-2 win. Ted Lilly pitched seven shutout innings to get the Dodgers back on the right track.

Jonathan Broxton was shaky in the ninth inning, but he did eventually nail down the victory. The Braves have been a disappointment so far this year, and they have already fallen to four games back of the Phillies in the NL East. Can Atlanta get it together in this Tuesday night matchup?

Philadelphia 76ers vs Miami Heat NBA Free Picks

In the NBA Free Picks it probably took a little more effort than they wanted to exert, but the Miami Heat were able to snare a Game 1 victory in NBA playoff betting action over the weekend. They’re back to take on the Philadelphia 76ers again in Game 2 on Monday night.

There is plenty out there for the 76ers to be happy about from Game 1 against the Heat. They definitely outplayed Miami for the first 12 minutes of the game, outscoring it 31-19 before getting run off the court in the second quarter. The team played solid defense, holding the Heat to just 41.9 percent shooting from the field and 23.5 percent from beyond the arc.

Free Hockey Picks: Los Angeles Kings vs. San Jose Sharks Free Picks

In the Free Hockey Picks last one of the eight series in the first round of Stanley Cup playoff betting action finally drops the puck on Thursday night at HP Pavilion, as the San Jose Sharks look to ward off the pesky Los Angeles Kings.

All of the talk surrounding the Kings is about how well they could possibly play in the playoffs without the services of Anze Kopitar. Though it’s possible that Kopitar could be back eventually in these playoffs, it certainly won’t be in the first round, and that leaves this team without a 60 point scorer on the year.

NBA Betting: New Orleans Hornets vs Dallas Mavericks Free Picks

The Western Conference playoff picture will finally crystallize once and for all on Wednesday night, as NBA betting fans can sink their teeth into the clash between the New Orleans Hornets and the Dallas Mavericks.

The Hornets know that they are either going to be the No. 7 or No. 8 seed in the playoffs this year. They’ll stay at No. 7 with a win or a loss by the Memphis Grizzlies, and they’ll end up at No. 8 with a loss and a win by the Grizz on the last night of the season. The truth of the matter is that either way, this team is in a heck of a lot of trouble.

Free MLB Picks: Tampa Bay Rays vs Boston Red Sox Free Picks

Two of the most disappointing teams in MLB betting action this year collide at Fenway Park for their first meeting of the Free Picks season starting on Monday, as the Tampa Bay Rays take on the Boston Red Sox.

The Rays have been disgraceful this season at just 1-8, and it could signal the start of a very, very long 162 games for a team that is just starting to get used to contending for the first time in franchise history. 

The only game that has been won this season was the day that Manny Ramirez retired, something that the squad rallied around.

Charlotte Bobcats vs. Miami Heat NBA Free Picks

Coming into .Free Picks on Friday in NBA betting action, the Miami Heat have to be all smiles. They got a nice gift on Thursday in the form of a Boston Celtics loss, and now, they are running up against a bunch of Charlotte Bobcats that they have absolutely dominated this season.

Charlotte really hasn’t looked like it has had much of a pulse of late. Sure, the team did force the Orlando Magic into overtime on Wednesday night, but it has lost four straight games, including duels to both the lowly Cleveland Cavaliers and the Washington Wizards. That loss to Washington was only the Wizards’ third win on the road all season long. Yikes.

2011 NFL Draft Preview – Defensive Line NFL Picks

Over the past few years the focus in the first round of the NFL draft has shifted somewhat away from the skill positions, other than quarterback, and has gravitated more towards the defensive line. Last year DT’s Ndamukong Suh and Gerald McCoy were selected No.2 and 3 overall and in 2009 there were six defensive linemen chosen in the first twenty selections. This year should be no different as there are a number of top prospects to choose from.

The following is a brief look at some of the top defensive lineman NFL Picks available for this year’s NFL draft.
