The New Orleans Saints currently hold the eighth pick in Thursday’s NFL Draft, and the Las Vegas oddsmakers have changed their numbers fairly significantly since the end of last week.

Holding steady among the odds the past few weeks have been either Miami (Fla.) edge rusher Rueben Bain or Ohio State wide receiver Carnell Tate.

Since then, Tate has risen up the board a bit, and many believe he won’t still be available at No. 8. Conversely, Bain has slipped just enough to take him out of the favorite role.

So who do the oddsmakers see as the favorite to be chosen eighth? (And remember, this is who will go at the spot in the draft, not necessarily to the Saints.)

Currently, across the board it’s Arizona WR Jordyn Tate, who has seen his draft stock rise immensely over the past several days.

Here are the odds at multiple books across the board (as of Tuesday at 4:20 pm ET) for all players 20-1 or less:
