It's time for the post-draft edition!  I take a look at the NFL draft selections of each of the NFL franchises.  Last podcast, I took a look at the first 16 teams in alphabetical order, starding with the Arizona Cardinals and ending with the reigning Super Bowl Champion Kansas City Chiefs.  In episode 35, I review the draft picks for the remaining 16 teams, from the Loss Angeles Chargers to the Washington Commanders. I provide my thoughts on how each team performed on draft day and how we should expect the draft picks to be used during the 2023 season.

The 1st Round of the NFL Draft is in the books and I take provide my thoughts on all 31 picks, from Bryce Young going to Carolina to the Super Bowl champs KC selecting Felix Anudike-Uzomah.  I also take a look at the biggest surprises of the draft, including Will Levis' freefall along with Detroit's curious picks, as well as what to look for on Day 2 of the draft.

 Draft Day is here!  I recorded this podcast in the early morning hours of 4/27 to reveal my final 1st Round mock draft.  From there, I break down my picks for all 32 teams over the first two days of the draft.  Bryce Young is the No. 1 overall pick, but what Houston does at No. 2 is still up in the air.  If it's not a QB, is it Tyree Wilson over Will Anderson Jr.?  Do the Cards take Anderson Jr. or an OT to protect Kyler Murray?  Will the Colts pass on CJ Stroud in favor of Will Levis?  How far will Jalen Carter slide?  And just when will Bijan Robinson come off the board?

Plus, my full seven-round mock draft is available on my website at www.readyforthedraft.com.

Episode 31 takes the positional rankings to the LB position where there will be a discussion regarding whether we will see a LB taken in Round One.  Will it be Drew Sanders?  And can we count on Trenton Simpson, Jack Campbell and Daiyan Henley to also be off the board by the end of Round 2?  And which impact LB will be the steal of Day 3?

The latest episode dedicated to positional rankings takes us to the interior of the DL.  We know that Jalen Carter is the elite DT prospect in this draft and won't get out of the top 10 before being selected, but just how many DT's will come off the board in Round One?  Calijah Kancey feels like a lock, but what about Bryan Bresee and Mazi Smith.  And where will the DT depth show itself during the three days of the draft?

THe positional rankings now turn to the defensive side of the football and begin with the Edge rushers.  We know Will Anderson Jr. and Tyree Wilson are locks in the top 10, but where will fellow 1st Round contenders like Lukas Van Nes. Nolan Smith and Myles Murphy come off the board?  And then who from the second tier of edge rushers, among those Will McDonald IV, Felix Anudike-Uzomah, Keion White, Derick Hall, Isaiah Foskey, Adetomiwa Adebawore and BJ Ojulari, will be the first to hear their name called and will it be in Round One?

Episode 28 is dedicated to breaking down draft projections for this year's OL class.  How many OT's can we see come off the board in Round One?  Of the top prospects, will Paris Johnson, Jr., Peter Skoronski, Broderick Jones or Darnell Wright come off the board first?  How early will O'Cyrus Torrence come off the board?  And just how many centers will be off the board by the end of Day 2?

The fourth installment of the positional rankings is all about the TE position where we have as many as eight prospects in this year's draft class who can be a starter early in their careers.  Teams that pass on Dalton Kincaid, Michael Mayer and Darnell Washingon can find talent on Days 2 and 3.

The third installment of the positional rankings focuses on the WR position where there isn't a clear-cut No. 1 wideout in this year's draft class.  Will it be the sudden and explosive Zay Flowers?  The beast in the slot that is Jaxon Smith-Njigba?  What about the rangy vertical threat Quentin Johnston?  Or the elite route runner Jordan Addison?  Not only do I discuss what could happen at the top of the draft, I also talk through who to watch for on Days 2 and 3 as well.
