- Which team nailed it, filling both Luke and Tim with sadness?
- Why did one team draft so many workout warriors?

The 2023 NFL Draft is nearly upon us, so join Tim and Luke for a dip into its waters, plus a whipround of recent NFL comings and goings, and get answers the burning questions, including:

This week, Luke and Tim talk about their thoughts on how teams should approach the NFL draft; the strategies, the missteps, the big yeses to the big nos, and wonder:

- Does the definition of draft success change depending on how good your team is?
- How many linemen should every team draft, every year?
- What's the best thing to look for in a wide receiver?
- Why does anyone draft a QB in the second round?

This week, Tim and Luke react to the news that Lamar Jackson has requested a trade from Baltimore, and wonder:

- Is there any way this ends well? 
- What does trading for Lamar actually mean for an NFL team?
- Will this change the QB landscape, or confirm it’s not changing at all?
- Where are the most logical (and/or funniest) landing spots?
