We're talking Running Backs in this episode of the Tape Heads: Draft Season podcast. Hosts Bob Wischusen and Greg Cosell explore what the RB position is right now in the NFL and what's expected from the College prospects. Bob wonders about the value of a RB and how today's player is asked to be far more versatile on the field. Even a good running back is facing a shorter shelf life in the NFL and most teams are contemplating value by a player's second contract with the team. Turning to the players, we look at Greg's evaluations of: Breece Hall, Kenneth Walker, Isaiah Spiller, James Cook, Tyler Allgeier, Rachaad White, Snoop Conner, Jerome Ford, Brian Robinson Jr., Kyren Williams, Dameon Pierce, and Zamir White.

In this episode of the Tape Heads: Draft Season podcast, hosts Bob Wischusen and Greg Cosell discuss the ups and downs of the NFL Combine. Greg explains how a player's :40 time can add or subtract to a player's evaluation and is always over-valued when projecting future performance. Greg would like to see a few different analytics added to the QB evaluations including footballs throws that should or shouldn't have been thrown. Bob asks if Kyle Hamilton could be a unicorn in the draft and what teams are discussing when his name comes up. We finally have answers when it comes to Kenny Pickett's hand size and Greg takes us into the discussions teams are having over the QB. After attending so many Combines, Greg tells us the things that even surprised him over the last week.

In this episode of the Tape Heads: Draft Season podcast, hosts Bob Wischusen and Greg Cosell discuss the expectations of Wide Receivers at the Combine. Some coaches would love to see helmets and pads added to running routes and for time. Greg says teams look for vertical receivers, which doesn't come from being fast. Players have been more athletic and explosive with so many training advances, but that may not always transfer to football. Teams are putting together offenses that use WR's in several different ways, so the position needs to be more versatile than ever. We evaluate Garrett Wilson, Jameson Williams, Treylon Burks, Drake London, Chris Olave, George Pickens, Jahan Dotson, David Bell, Justyn Ross, and Khalil Shakir. Greg looks at the occasions when a Combine performance is disappointing and how teams can still see positives from a player. We wrap up with which NFL teams are in the market for these WR's.

In this episode of the Tape Heads: Draft Season podcast, hosts Bob Wischusen and Greg Cosell discuss the foundation of what NFL teams will be looking for from their QB's. Greg explains how some QB's will be asked to do things on an NFL that never came into play with their college programs. Teams will get precise sizes of players this week and will have to try and determine which one will adapt to their systems. We look at breakdowns for prospects like Ken Pickett, Matt Corral, Desmond Ridder, Sam Howell, Carson Strong, and Malik Willis. We also touch on which teams will be looking for a QB and when in the Draft will they be looking to take them.

In the first episode of the Tape Heads: Draft Season podcast, hosts Bob Wischusen and Greg Cosell discuss the upcoming few weeks through the NFL Combine and Draft. Greg points out how teams will look at prospects and have to determine who has what flaws and how those flaws can be addressed. The Draft can be broken down into two parts...the QB Draft and the Every Other Position Draft. Bob asks about the difference players will see going from the college game to the NFL. We prepare to talk QB's next week, but first discuss how being able to run is now almost required of QB's and how their rookie deals can set up a team for Super Bowl success.

We explore Sean McVay's gameplan and why he decided to stick with a running game despite little success. Cooper Kupp wins the MVP, but Bob believes Aaron Donald was the most dominant player on the field. The crew looks at what happened to the Bengals and why they couldn't hold onto a late lead.

In the latest episode of the Tape Heads podcast, hosts Dan Orlovsky, Bob Wischusen and Scott Pioli discuss how the Rams offense will match up against the Bengals defense. Scott expects the Bengals defense to start off very vanilla but then react and respond to the plan the Rams are trying to implement. The Rams offense is the most fascinating part of the Super Bowl for Dan, who wonders how quickly Sean McVay will be able to adjust this game plan. The crew wonders where the Bengals will bring help from while facing Cooper Kupp and Odell Beckham Jr. Scott expects Kupp to be the main priority while gambling a bit with OBJ. Dan just doesn't see a way that Matt Stafford loses this game.

In the latest episode of the Tape Heads podcast, hosts Dan Orlovsky, Bob Wischusen and Scott Pioli discuss how the Bengals offense will match up against the Rams defense. Dan thinks this will be greatest challenge that Joe Burrow has faced all season long. We've seen other teams push the Cincinnati offensive line around and Burrow bail them out, but the Rams will be able to chase Burrow around. The status of TE CJ Uzomah is going to make a big difference in the Bengals plan. Scott thinks the Rams should try to make adjustments shortly before halftime to leave the Bengals questioning what they're going to see in the second half. Joe Mixon is going to be a big part of Zac Taylor's plan...early and often...and the commitment to be consistent with the running game could decide the game.

In the latest episode of the Tape Heads podcast, hosts Dan Orlovsky, Bob Wischusen and Scott Pioli discuss the Rams getting past the 49ers and now playing in the Super Bowl. Dan talks about the play of Matt Stafford shining in pressure moments and making throws that helped his receivers get open. Stafford has proved himself in a spot that he never had the chance to play in before. The 49ers were trying to match up man for man against the Rams and had growing issues as the game progressed. Dan wonders why San Fran couldn't dial it up because Jimmy Garoppolo had opportunities that he missed. Scott thinks this was an average Niners team that improved throughout the season, but came up short. Dan was surprised we didn't see a touch of Trey Lance sprinkled in for a different look.
