Ready for the Draft Podcast

After previewing my top 10 QBs, RBs, and WRs, we kick off Episode 4 talking TEs.  While there isn't a Brock Bowers in this year's draft class, Colston Loveland is expected to garner serious consideration in Round 1.  However, he's not the only TE to be excited about as this is a deep crop of TEs.  We also take a look at Week 0 of the college football season.  Florida State takes on Georgia Tech in Dublin, SMU's first ACC game is at Nevada, while New Mexico faces FCS power Montana State and Hawaii takes on Delaware State.  Which draft prospects should you watch out for in these matchups?  I got you covered!

The 2025 WR class doesn't have a sure-fire top 10 pick like Marvin Harrison Jr., Malik Nabers or Rome Odunze, but expect Luther Burden III, Tetairoa McMillan and Emeka Egbuka to hear their names called in Round 1 in April.  Who's next in line after this trio?  I got it covered here.

Episode 2 moves to my top 10 rankings at the RB position, where there isn't a true No. 1 RB at the top of the list, but a lot of depth to be excited about.  Ashton Jeanty, Ollie Gordon II, Omarion Hampton, Quinshon Judkins and TreVeyon Henderson are likely at the top of the list, but they're not the only RBs we should be talking about in this year's draft class. 

The 2024 College Football season is upon us so it's time to start introducing you to the players to watch out for who we'll be talking about in April for the 2025 NFL Draft.  We'll start the rankings with the QB's.  After a history-making draft with six QBs taken in the first 12 picks, the 2025 QB class has three QBs primed for the 1st Round right now in Carson Beck, Shedeur Sanders and Quinn Ewers.  Who else might join them?  Who still has work to do?  And who is flying under the radar?  I've got you covered with my top 10 QBs for the 2025 NFL Draft.

This podcast was recorded in May, but was saved until an August release as we're in full swing in training camp.  Which Undrafted Free Agents have a shot at making the roster?  Let's see if my projections back in May were on point or off base.

It's time for Part 2 of my NFL Draft Recap as I give my assessment of each team's performance during all three days of the NFL Draft, taking a look at all 257 picks.  Part 1 saw my review the picks from the first 16 teams alphabetically, from Arizona through Kansas City.  Part 2 will cover the remaining teams, from the Los Angeles Chargers through the Washington Commanders.

The NFL Draft is finally upon us and I have released my final mock draft.  This podcast is dedicated to my final 1st Round mock.  I don't forecast any trades, but tried to find the right fits regardless of the current draft position.  How many QBs come off the board in Round One?  Can we really see 7 WRs come off the board in the first 32 picks?  I'll break it all down.  And my full seven-round mock draft is posted on readyforthedraft.com.  Enjoy!

It's time to take a look at the DB positions and Specialists by the numbers for the NFL Draft.  We could see 5-6 CBs come off the board in Round 1, but my CB1 is Toledo's Quinyon Mitchell.  There is depth on all three days of the draft with the CB class.  The safety class this year doesn't have a 1st Rounder, but you'll see good depth on Days 2 and 3.  And just how many specialists will we see drafted?  You can bet Iowa cult hero Tory Taylor will be one.

It's time to take a look at the DT position by the numbers for the NFL Draft.  While we know that Dallas Turner will be selected in the top 15 picks, when will we see the first off-ball LB taken in this year's draft?  In all likelihood it will be Edgerrin Cooper, but could he really sneak into the end of Round 1 or is he destined to come off the board at the top of Round 2?  A healthy Payton Wilson could have been this year's Jack Campbell, but as it stands he's an easy Day 2 pick.  The depth of this LB group is really mid-Day 2 through mid-Day 3.
