Adam Schefter joins Jen, Gabe & Chewy fresh off the NFL Draft — and immediately connects one of the biggest moves to a familiar Packers storyline.
🏈 Rams Draft a QB… Sound Familiar?
Schefter breaks down the Rams taking Ty Simpson and compares it directly to the Packers drafting Jordan Love:
👉 A win-now team drafting a future quarterback
His analogy:
👉 It’s like buying insurance you don’t think you need — until you do
The Packers questioned it at the time
Eventually proved right
But possibly sacrificed a Super Bowl run in the process
👀 Sean McVay’s Reaction Explained
Schefter offers insight into why McVay looked uncomfortable:
He was trying not to disrespect Matthew Stafford
The team went out of its way to notify Stafford and Stetson Bennett
It’s about balancing future planning with current leadership
🔄 Draft Night = Trade Night
The first round featured 8 trades, and Schefter explains:
Most weren’t massive deals
Teams were simply manipulating the board
Even division rivals are willing to work together
🧠 Teams That Won the Draft
From Schefter’s perspective:
Raiders stood out
Cowboys had a strong showing
Browns also impressed
🔥 Still Big Names Available
Even after the draft, the league isn’t done:
Odell Beckham Jr.
DeAndre Hopkins
Stefon Diggs
Juwan Jennings
👉 Free agency still has storylines left
⏳ NFL Calendar Slowing Down
Schefter notes:
The league is entering a quieter period
But it’s never fully quiet
Expect more moves leading into minicamps
