Oklahoma running back Joe Mixon is still on the board as Day 2 of the 2017 NFL Draft starts Friday.

Only two backs -- LSU's Leonard Fournette and Stanford's Christian McCaffrey -- were taken Thursday night.

Mixon was arrested in 2014 for punching a female student, an incident caught on video. He was suspended for the season.

Entering the draft, Mixon was a -200 favorite at BookMaker.eu to go in the second round. That means you would have had to bet $200 to win $100.

Now that the first round is over, let's see where Mixon -- whose controversial past will follow him -- is headed according to BookMaker odds.

THE FULL LIST

From BookMaker.eu: Which team will select Joe Mixon in Round 2 of the NFL Draft?

  • Indianapolis Colts: -115
  • Philadelphia Eagles: +150
  • Detroit Lions: +180
  • Tampa Bay Buccaneers: +200
  • San Francisco 49ers: +230
  • New York Jets: +240
  • Seattle Seahawks: +280
  • Baltimore Ravens: +280
  • New York Giants: +300
  • Kansas City Chiefs: +325
  • Washington Redskins: +450
  • Green Bay Packers: +500
*Note: BookMaker.eu does not anticipate the Cincinnati Bengals drafting Mixon. "They have a history of drafting players like Mixon, but they don't need a running back," a spokesperson for BookMaker.eu said.
GREEN BAY PACKERS

Will Joe Mixon be drafted by the Green Bay Packers in Round 2 of the NFL Draft?

  • Yes +500
  • No -750

Ty Montgomery leads the current Packers RB depth chart, a position they lacked stability in last season. Green Bay selects first in the second round.

SEATTLE SEAHAWKS

Will Joe Mixon be drafted by the Seattle Seahawks in Round 2 of the NFL Draft?

  • Yes +280
  • No -350

The Seahawks sent retired RB Marshawn Lynch to Oakland and averaged fewer than 100 rushing yards per game last season -- 25th in the NFL. They pick right after Green Bay in the second round (34th overall).

NEW YORK GIANTS

Will Joe Mixon be drafted by the New York Giants in Round 2 of the NFL Draft?

  • Yes +300
  • No -380

The Giants cut RB Rashad Jennings and have Paul Perkins atop the depth chart. They were 29th in rushing last season, but don't pick until 23rd in the second round.

PHILADELPHIA EAGLES

Will Joe Mixon be drafted by the Philadelphia Eagles in Round 2 of the NFL Draft?

  • Yes +150
  • No -190

Ryan Mathews is likely gone for good, leaving a void at tailback. The Eagles have shown they're not afraid to take chances on players with less-than-clean pasts (see Michael Vick).

WASHINGTON REDSKINS

Will Joe Mixon be drafted by the Washington Redskins in Round 2 of the NFL Draft?

  • Yes +450
  • No -550

The Redskins have RB Rob Kelley and re-signed pass-catching back Chris Thompson to a one-year deal. But if they're not sold on either, Mixon could fill the void.

NEW YORK JETS

Will Joe Mixon be drafted by the New York Jets in Round 2 of the NFL Draft?

  • Yes +240
  • No -300

Jets RB Matt Forte averaged 3.7 yards per carry last season and was hampered by injury. Bilal Powell filled in admirably, but he's never been viewed as a No. 1 back. The Jets draft seventh in the second round.

DETROIT LIONS

Will Joe Mixon be drafted by the Detroit Lions in Round 2 of the NFL Draft?

  • Yes +180
  • No -215

The Lions were third-to-last in rushing last season, and RB Ameer Abdullah played in just two games. They're the third-most likely team on this list to land Mixon.

KANSAS CITY CHIEFS

Will Joe Mixon be drafted by the Kansas City Chiefs in Round 2 of the NFL Draft?

  • Yes +325
  • No -400

The Chiefs landed QB Patrick Mahomes in the first round and could pair him with a dynamic RB like Mixon to overhaul their offense. They were middle-of-the-road in rushing last season (15th).

BALTIMORE RAVENS

Will Joe Mixon be drafted by the Baltimore Ravens in Round 2 of the NFL Draft?

  • Yes +280
  • No -350

The Ravens struggled on the ground last season, averaging a dismal 91.4 yards per game. Terrance West led the way with 774 yards and 5 TDs.

INDIANAPOLIS COLTS

Will Joe Mixon be drafted by the Indianapolis Colts in Round 2 of the NFL Draft?

  • Yes -115
  • No -115

Ancient Frank Gore went over 1,000 yards for the Colts last season, but only averaged 3.9 yards per carry. Indianapolis is the odds-on favorite to land Mixon and drafts 14th in the second round.

TAMPA BAY BUCCANEERS

Will Joe Mixon be drafted by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Round 2 of the NFL Draft?

  • Yes +200
  • No -235

RB Doug Martin is suspended four games to open the season. The Bucs were 24th in rushing last year, in part because Martin only played eight games. Tampa Bay DT Gerald McCoy called Mixon the "most complete back in the draft."

SAN FRANCISCO 49ERS

Will Joe Mixon be drafted by the San Francisco 49ers in Round 2 of the NFL Draft?

  • Yes +230
  • No -275

Rumors persist that the 49ers will move on from injury-prone RB Carlos Hyde, but they didn't draft a QB in the first round, instead swapping picks with the Bears and landing DT Solomon Thomas.
