Show notes

The Unlikely Usurper: Josh Jacobs (RB, Raiders, No. 24 Overall) Jun 10, 2019

Show notes

Episode 4 of Rookie Orientation profiles the most unique -or, unlikely - of first-round running backs, Josh Jacobs, the 24th overall pick by the Oakland Raiders.

Few players have had to overcome the series of circumstances Josh Jacobs did as a child, to even get to Alabama. Jacobs’ appeal goes beyond just who he is as a person, as tremendous as that is. It’s hard to watch Jacobs and not come away wildly impressed with all that he can do on the football field.

Matt Harmon takes a closer look at the player who will fight to become something in the NFL, that he was never in college….a workhorse feature for his team’s offense.

The Throwback: T.J. Hockenson (TE, Lions, No. 8 Overall) Jun 03, 2019

Show notes

Episode 3 of Rookie Orientation profiles an old school, brute, Big Ten tight end, T.J. Hockenson, the 8th overall pick by the Detroit Lions.

Matt Harmon takes a deep dive into Hockenson's style of play - a positive force as a mover in the run game and a weapon in the passing game. The Lions went and got them the proverbial man who can do both.

Show notes

Episode 2 of Rookie Orientation profiles an explosive playmaker who happens to be one of the smallest players in the league, in Marquise “Hollywood” Brown, the 25th overall pick by the Baltimore Ravens.

Matt Harmon takes a close look at the compelling story of the former Oklahoma receiver, who has defied the odds his entire life and is out to prove that just like his cousin Antonio Brown, he’s capable of being a transcendent star in the NFL.
