Dan & JP found themselves in a unique spot. Ever found yourself commenting "Well there's a world where that could happen"? That's what the boys did for this two round mock. They looked at the 2025 NFL Draft prospects that each team has met with or at least formally interviewed, and made their picks accordingly. Who rose & who slid? there's at least ONE big name you'll have to wait until the second round drops next episode to find out where he goes!

(27:00)-Beverage break

JP gets creative with a fruit driven Bells Oberon war

Dan talks about the first of his road trip beers, Dayton Ohio's Branch & Bone Artisian Ales' PassionFruit Salty Salute

(33:28)-Second Half

JP & Dan get into it on one of their favorite episodes of the run-up to the NFL Draft. The boys plant their metaphorical flags both on players they think people are overlooking, and some guys that will go waaaaaay earlier than either of them would ever draft them. They wrap things up with their annual heads up draft, going snake style back and forth picking their starting lineups for this NFL draft class.

(1:04:22)-Beverage Break

Dan talks about his experience with the Dragonsmilk Triple Mash, an 18% Bourbon Barrel Aged Stout that drinks much easier than you'd imagine

JP counters with a few nips from Iron Fish's maple barrel finish whiskey, his favorite Northern Michigan Distillery

(1:09:16)-Heads Up Draft

JP & Dan are wrapping up their positional rankings saga with two of the groups that seem representative of this 2025 Draft class. The tackle group has a couple of top end talents, but there's a drop off, whereas the Edge Rushers don't necessarily have a ton of elite prospects, but there's a LOT of guys that the boys really like as complimentary pieces.

(32:46)-Beverage Break

Dan reviews his second Toppling Goliath sour that decided to foam all over his desk, the Strawberry Shortcake Fandango.

JP gives his take about how Bell's Oberon has changed, and then these guys go off on a bourbon tangent that included Iron Fish distillery in Thompsonville, Mi, and JP's favorite from outside of the normal bourbon areas, Smokeye Hill in Colorado Springs

(39:00)-Edge Rushers

JP & Dan shift their focus to the larger gentlemen as they continue their tour of ranking each position group of prospects before we get to the 2025 NFL draft next month. This time around the boys focus on the interior of the offensive line (guards & centers) and the big Defensive Tackles that line up opposite these giants.

(33:58)-Beverage Break

JP spends most of the episode distracted by the wonderful Goose Island Bourbon County 2024 Macaroon Stout. Full on and gorgeous.

Dan is on the other end of the beer spectrum sipping on the Toppling Goliath Dragon Fandango sour. Quite delightful in a VERY different way.

(42:54)-Defensive Tackles

Dan & JP Bite off just about as much as they can chew as they continue ranking all of the position groups ahead of the 2025 NFL Draft. The boys rip through a combined 68+ players EACH as they go through the groups of Wide Receivers and Defensive Backs that will be drafted come the end of April.

(39:22)-Beverage Break

JP accidentally doubles up on Revolution Brewing's Ryeway to Heaven instead of Death's Tar, and both boys chat about the Dragon's Milk Origin Bonded and get going down the bourbon rabbit hole

Dan talks about the Big Lake Albino Rhino White Stout, and realizes that he needs to read labels before buying beers

(45:12)-Cornerbacks

Dan & JP continue to reshuffle their positional rankings post-combine as we inch nearer to the 2025 NFL Draft. The boys tackle (HA!) the logjam at Running Back, where normally 19 players get drafted on average over the last five drafts...but that number might go up this year. They also flip to the other side of the field to look at JP's favorite position group that needs some more love these days, the Linebackers.

(03:56)-Running Backs

(38:14)-Beverage Break

JP offers his take on the "Trolls Trolls Trolls" Vanilla Bourbon Barrel Aged Stout From Three Floyds

Dan goes off the left bank with talk of a Bordeaux night they had at his place last night, and caps it with an opinion on Knob Creek 18 year, and Bluegrass Distillery's Single Barrel Toasted Oak Bourbon

JP & Dan are coming in hot just over a month out from the 2025 NFL Draft with their updated positional rankings. Before they get rolling though, JP has already figured out the first four picks in the draft. Lock it in.

To start things off, the boys tackle Tight Ends, Quarterbacks and Safeties in that order. Why those groups? JP thought it would be fun to go heads up at position groups. It's going to be a mix of offense and defense through the next several shows. Who's a sleeper? Who's higher for these guys than the rest of the NFL? And WHO does Dan have as QB3? SERIOUSLY?!

Tight Ends start at - 8:56

Quarterbacks start at - 23:09

Safeties begin at - 39:55

Dan & JP try to guess what the NFL's decision makers will do in the First Round of the NFL draft following all of the bonkers contracts given out in the first week of Free Agency. The boys are positively tilting on some of these picks as they weigh what THEY would do against what the GM's and coaches building their rosters want.

JP Talks about his favorite beer having a not favorite moment as he found a questionable batch of Short's Humalupalicious

What does it all mean for the NFL Draft? Crack a beverage and join the boys as they blitz through the NFL's most shrewd, puzzling and expensive moves!
