Show notes

Pro Football Network's Ian Cummings dropped a spicy 2024 NFL Mock Draft. DP and Keith went through the entire first round. Which picks stood out to them?

Keith does not understand the Denver Broncos' selection of Texas Longhorn WR Xavier Worthy. He likes the player but is confused by the fit. Is Jeff Sims the next Anthony Richardson of the 2024 NFL Draft class? DP believes he is a potential riser into the first round and maybe a top-10 pick.
