All the rumors have oddsmakers working hard this offseason, trying to map out the possibilities and make some money along the way. Below are DraftKings' odds for Darnold — the 10 most likely teams with which he will begin the 2021 season (h/t to Patrick Tulini).

Your eyes are not deceiving you. You indeed see the 49ers listed as a possibility for Russell Wilson. It seems very unlikely that the Seattle Seahawks would trade Wilson, who signed a four-year, $140 million extension just two years ago. Even if Seattle did, the team would be unlikely to send him to a division rival. That hasn't stopped other teams from reaching out to the Seahawks. Reports indicate that Wilson is not available, though.
"Yeah, I definitely believe they have gotten calls, for sure," Wilson recently told Dan Patrick. "I think anytime you are a player that tries to produce every week and has done it consistently, I think people are going to call for sure. It's part of the process."
Added Wilson: "The reality of professional sports is things happen, things change. I'm not sure how long I will play in Seattle. I think hopefully it will be forever. But things change, obviously, along the way."
