Michael Lombardi on Aaron Rodgers Future, 49ers Original Draft Plans, Mac to Pats


Listen Later

Cousin Sal and Dave recap a big weekend in sports from the NFL Draft to the Kentucky Derby, as the Mets just hang on for a win and the Packers are trying to hang onto Aaron Rodgers (02:00).

Former NFL executive, Michael Lombardi joins the show and the guys first talk about how it’s been 20 years since the Pine Barrens episode of The Sopranos first aired (08:30). Mike talks about how no one doing these mock drafts really knows anything and he doesn’t believe the 49ers coaches didn’t know who they were drafting with the #3 pick. He discusses how the 49ers could have originally traded up to draft Mac Jones but were then convinced to take Trey Lance (10:30).

Mike doesn’t see Aaron Rodgers being traded and the 49ers may not have had to trade up to draft Trey Lance. He believes Mac Jones and Trevor Lawrence will be the best quarterbacks from this draft and reminded that all the Alabama players say Mac Jones is better than Tua (17:00).

The guys discuss the AFC North and Najee Harris was too talented for the Steelers to pass up, how the Raiders and Jon Gruden have struggled with personnel decisions and why Jared Goff’s contract has made things difficult for other top tier quarterbacks. Then after the Jets two Michael Carters, Mike tells the story of Tampa Bay turning in the wrong card (25:15).

Dave and Sal discuss which teams they could see not making the playoffs and disagree on both the Seahawks and Steelers (30:30). Then it’s a quick recap on the Kentucky Derby (42:00), Bucks/Nets and the Lakers schedule down the stretch as they look to avoid the playoff play-in round (47:30). Finally, the guys give out their Crown Royal Athletes of the Week and discuss The Sopranos versus Breaking Bad (55:15).
