NFL Mock Draft Monday 10.0: Big Board Examination and Analysis, Kyle Pitts is the 2nd best overall prospect in this draft class, just 2 QBs in Top 10 (Football 4/19) Apr 19, 2021

Show notes

It's the penultimate Mock Draft Monday this season as we take a deep look at Ryan Wilson's Big Board of prospects. Trevor Lawrence is #1 and there's not much more to say about him that hasn't been said already. After Lawrence though, things get interesting. The guys examine certain discrepancies between Big Board Ranking and where Ryan has these prospects slated to go in his latest mock. For example, Kyle Pitts is the #2 prospect for Wilson, but we all know the Jets won't be taking the Florida TE at that position in a couple of weeks. 2 wide receivers sit inside Ryan's Top 5 and only 2 quarterbacks fall inside the Top 10. Who are they? Listen for full Big Board analysis!

Show notes

The Pick Six Superfriends then address if we've been too harsh collectively on Tua Tagovailoa after a disappointing rookie season under some tough circumstances. If you could pick 2 teams ever to play in the Super Bowl, who would they be? Wilson goes for the winless Lions vs. the winless Browns. Who will have the better pro career: Kyle Pitts or Ja'Marr Chase?Could we see a team permanently based in the UK? All those questions answered and more on the mailbag.

NFL Draft QB Prospect Week: It's time to take Mac Jones seriously as an elite prospect (Football 4/15) Apr 15, 2021

Show notes

Mac Jones seems to be the main prospect in this draft class that you HAVE to take a side on. You're either for him or against him and Ryan Wilson could be labeled as one of his biggest supporters. On this episode Ryan joins Will Brinson to break down why he has been so high on Jones throughout the entire draft process and why ultimately he should be considered a better prospect than Tua Tagovailoa was last year. Listen for an in-depth breakdown of the Alabama product and what will translate to the next level. The guys also evaluate where he could land in the draft and it seems more and more likely he'll be the target for the 49ers at #3.

NFL Draft QB Prospect Week: Jets and 49ers could be making big mistake by passing on Justin Fields (Football 4/14) Apr 14, 2021

Show notes

Justin Fields and Trevor Lawrence entered college as closely-ranked high school recruits and prospects and many thought they'd enter the NFL Draft 1-2 as well. In the past few months, Lawrence has remained at the top of the class, but other quarterbacks have risen above Fields. That's a mistake according to Tom Fornelli. On this episode, Tom tells Will Brinson why teams (especially the Jets and 49ers) shouldn't be sleeping on the Ohio State product when the draft arrives. The guys break down Fields' game, highlighting all the things he does exceptionally well. While Zach Wilson and Mac Jones appear like the #2 and #3 picks at the moment, laying some money on Fields to go in one of those spots might return some value.
