NFL Draft Reactions | Ty Simpson, Jeremiyah Love, Makai Lemon & More

1 hour 43 minutes

The 2026 NFL Draft is wrapped and teams have their player hauls. It's time to talk about those drafted players and their fits on their new teams. Chris dove deep into the LA Rams drafting Ty Simpson which was the surprise of the draft. Makai Lemon was lined up to be drafted by the Steelers until the Philadelphia Eagles swooped in and snagged him with the 20th overall selection, a pick Chris thinks really fits what the Eagles are doing right now. Arizona selected Jeremiyah Love but was it too early with where the Cardinals are right now? Chris, Stanford Steve and Macon review those draft picks, talk about their favorite team drafts and a few draft picks that might've missed the mark.
