The Season with Peter Schrager: Peter's Final* 2024 Mock Draft (*For Now...) · Best of the NFL Podcast Network

• 0:07
  Speaker 1: The Season with Peter Schrager is a production of the
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: NFL in partnership with iHeartRadio. All Right, what's up, everybody?
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: This is The Season with Peter Schriker. Greetings from Detroit,
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: Michigan in a hotel room. Still, Aaron wan Kaufman is
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: joining me. We are literally two inches away from each other.
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: Aaron, this is the closest we've ever been.
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah, we've been away from each other for a long time.
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: A lot of remote ones, had a lot of remote podcasts.
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: All right, So part one was me emptying the notebook,
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: and I think there's a lot of good information in
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: that one. If I still was writing and I was
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: on a website, I would have done a huge article
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: with all that stuff and it would have gone bananas
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: because I think there's a lot of good information. So
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: go find that and it will help inform you on
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: how your team is going to look. And then this
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: is going to be a separate podcast. This is my
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: mock draft. And I think if we simply put the
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: title of this one as Peter's final mock draft and
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: then parentheses for now in parentheses, Yeah, how about Peter's
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: final twenty twenty four mock draft? Parentheses for now. I
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: think that's what it is. Because we're recording this at
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: four o'clock Eastern, and I promise you I have you
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: guys were here, I have multiple multiple g I'm gonna
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: show you, Aaron. This is just from a this. Look
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: at this list of names. These are big names here.
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: These are guys these texting me. What do you got?
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: What do you think? What do you So? This is
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: at a four o'clock but it might change. Am I
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: allowed to do that? This is content moment in time? Yeah?
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: All right, So it's two point zero final at Asterix.
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: All right, number one. The Bears will select Caleb Williams
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: USC quarterback. I think this one is a done deal,
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: the same way Trevor Lawrence, Andrew Locke, Peyton Manning have
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: been done deals in the past two As I described
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: in my previous part one of today's two podcasts. I
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: think it is Jaden Daniels. I said I'd put my
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: name on it. I don't know. If I put it
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: an ink, I'd probably say I'm ninety ten On this one.
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna say Jaden Daniels to Washington. Everything smooths over,
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: and he is the next quarterback of the Commanders. Number three,
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: the New England Patriots. I go, Drake May. The analogy
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: once again, if you don't listen to the first part.
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: The analogy for me with the Patriots is this, You've
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: got a beautiful house at the end of the block.
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: It's a gorgeous mansion, and it has a for sale
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: sign on and people do. You'd see cars pulling up
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: and seeing this mansion, and they've walked through it and
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: they never sell the house. But they like being flattered.
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: They like being told how much they can sell the
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: house for. They like hearing the They're not selling the house.
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: It's their dream house. They spent the last three years
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: building this thing. They're not going to just sell it.
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: And they get a new mortgage and figure it all
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: out and refinance. No, it all right. That was really
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: deep cut real estate talk there. I've got the Patriots
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: that can, Drake May. At three four, the Arizona Cardinals
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: select Marvis Harrison Junior, three picks in the top thirty five.
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: At some point you have to start fielding a team.
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: What you've heard is right that Maniasapfort said he doesn't
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: want to hear any trade offers. Is he even engaging
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: in that stuff until the day of which is tomorrow.
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: Well that's good because I don't know if there's any
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: pick or package that is worthy of them getting out
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: of taking Marvin Harrison at four. Now we get interesting.
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: All right, this could all change. I'm telling you by
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: the time I put my final final, final thing is
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: going to be whatever goes online tonight and whatever's on
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: Good Morning Football in the morning. But as of right now,
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: fifth overall, I have the LA Chargers taking. I'm going
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: back and forth on what I would say. Right now,
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: all the Chargers do not trade, the Chargers keep the pick,
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: and the Chargers select J. C. Latham. I love that
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: out of Alabama.
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: I didn't say it on the first episode, but I
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: love all the JAC Latham talking.
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: It's out of nowhere. It's why the process is so good.
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: I've got him going fifth overall to the Chargers. Okay,
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: we've got to change my right I'm doing this for
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: my word doc, and I got to change the right Oak.
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: So you know, screw it. I've heard enough JC Latham rumors.
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: Let's go with it. Six giants, This WI knock you
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: on your ass now. Andrew Siciliano, my dear former colleague
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: now donfl network. But still my friend came out with
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: this beauty. JJ McCarthy just told the Rich Eyesen Show
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: that he spent his most time in the pre draft
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: process with the Giants. Okay, so Giants fans realize they're
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: not wasting your time. They're doing it. But I don't
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: have them taking JJ McCarthy. That means Joe Alt is
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: on the table that is a perfect fit for the Giants.
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: But Joe all one side, take Andrew Thomas on the other.
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: You move Evan Kneel inside and you've got a brick wall.
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: They're not taking Joel Okay, Well, then they're gonna take
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: Melik Neighbors, who is in many eyes, the best wide
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: receiver in this draft he can compete with. They're not
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: taking Molik Neighbors with the sixth overall pick. I got
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: the New York Giants tacking Roma Dutensay out of Washington.
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: Let's go. I don't have a single person at the
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: Giants organization telling me they like Roma dounsay. I don't
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: even know if they've met with Roma Donsay. This is
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: from various connecting of dots and that they need a
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: wide receiver and I don't think they're a neighbors team.
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: I just don't, so I'm gonna go roma dunsay. And
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: that's one where Giants fans live and die by my word,
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: because I had a lot of Giants picks right over
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: the last couple of years. I'm telling you, guys, I'm
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: guessing here and until I update it tonight or change it,
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: this one, to me is one of those where you
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: connect the dots and you say, a dounsay is all world,
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: all everything. He can be a number one wide receiver.
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: He checks every box person wise, checks every box health wise.
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: Giants get a cornerstone. They get their wide receiver. A
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: dounsay at six, which leads to seven. The Tennessee Titans
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: do like Joe Alt. I can tell you that the
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: Tennessee Titans really like Malik Neighbors. I could tell you
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: that Tennessee Titans also might really like J. C. Latham.
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: You have three different players right there. You're sitting there
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: at seven. I currently have the Tennessee Titans as the
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: team that trades out of the seventh overall pick, and
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: I have them moving back just four spots, and I've
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: got the Minnesota Vikings moving up to seven Minnesota selecting
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: JJ McCarthy. My connection there the gms ran Carthon and
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: Quaciadofo Mensa. They have a long history together. They worked
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: at San Francisco together. There's a relationship there. Tennessee does
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: not have to move back all the way. They could
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: still get one of these top offensive alignment or potentially
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: a wide receiver if they fall, and they also get
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: to trade with a team that's outside the conference, so
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: I don't have to face this guy in the playoffs.
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: And if you're Minnesota, what would the compensation be. So
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: this is where it's interesting. I think if you move
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: up four spots, it's the eleventh pick, and it's not
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: the twenty third pick. It's a bunch of future things.
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: And I say that as like whatever, we could figure
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: that out first round or second round or whatever it is.
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: It's probably a first round pick over the next two drafts,
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: but it's at least the eleventh and it's not the
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: twenty third. That's the key thing. Minnesota holds on to
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: the twenty third, they still get JJ McCarthy. I said
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: this earlier today. I think that the Vikings like Drake
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: may more than JJ McCarthy I think they like Michael Pennix.
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: I think they've got McCarthy above Penix. I think the
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: order would be Drake May bit of a gap, JJ McCarthy,
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: less of a gap, Michael Pennox. That's how I see it.
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: So do they have the courage to just sit and
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: hold tight at eleven and take Pennix if McCarthy's off
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: the board. Maybe, And that might be how my mock
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: draft finishes up, no joke. I might have the Raiders
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: or the Broncos trade up and get McCarthy when it's
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: all said and none. But for now, let's go seven
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: Minnesota to McCarthy. Eight Atlanta Dallas Turner, defensive end Alabama.
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: I don't see them taking another wide out and Neighbors
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: is on the board. I don't see them taking another
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: tight end Bowers on the board. I don't see them
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: going offensive line. I see them taking the best pass
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: rusher Dallas Turner to Atlanta. Now we get real crazy.
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: Number nine is the Chicago Bears. They've already taken Kayleb
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: Williams that do not have a second round pick. I
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: have a trade, all right, this is hard to follow, Aaron.
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: I've got the Indianapolis Colts moving up from fifteen to nine,
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: and you're thinking it's neighbors, it's actually Brock Bowers. Ooh,
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: I love that.
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: A great, like incredible pass catcher for your young quarterback
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: who has shown promise but probably needs a little bit
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: more of a reliable receiver than just Wow, Pitman, Pittman,
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: piers right, Josh Down.
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: Yeah, nice job. And I was gonna forard about Josh Downs. Yeah,
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: I so did the Colts late in the season. Yeah, okay,
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: you must have had it on your fantasy team. We
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: go Brock Bowers here. I'm a fan, that's the thing. Like,
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: I'm a fan of football. I've been hearing about Rock
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: Bowers for three years. He's the cleanest prospect. Everyone tells
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: me this. It's Doonsay and Bowers are the cleanest, meaning
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: no red flags, medical, no red flags the tape, no
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: red flags, any of the workouts, nothing. Brock Bowers goes
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: top ten and they get him before the Jets, which
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: everyone tells me the Jets are like the backstop for
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: Brock Bowers. So then what number ten? The New York Jets.
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: And I've had the New York Jets pick right the
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: last several years. So everyone is listening, like, who's he
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: got for the Jets, I said brock Bowers the first
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: time around. Aaron, here's where the New York Jets, with
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: the tenth overall pick, take Maleek Neighbors out of LSU.
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: So the Giants go with Donsay, the Jets go Neighbors
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: with all these offensive line and like, look, Joe Douglas
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: might want to trade back, they might want to take
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: fu Wanga. They might do. I'm gonna go New York Jets.
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: At the end of the day, Woody Johnson and Aaron
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: Rodgers say, if that Malik Neighbors is on the board,
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: get me Mylak Neighbors. Tennessee's at eleven, they're sitting there.
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: They take Joe Alt, who might be the best prospect
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: in this entire draft, the cleanest prospect. Now we're all
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: over the board, right, I mean, Tennessee still gets Joe
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: Wall at eleventh overall and picks up a future first.
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: Sounds pretty good. I'll have to update my right up there.
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: Bronco's at twelve. I'm tempted to just give them bo
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: Nicks here, but I'm gonna go offensive line. I'm gonna
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: go Tali. That's what I'm told. Tali fu Wanga out
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: of Oregon State. Tally is what Field Theates told us.
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: He goes by right, Tali, Tali Fuanga. It doesn't make
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: a lot of sense on paper because they already have mclinchy.
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: But mclinchy's contract is nearly up and they signed him
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: last year. I'm sorry, Bowls is nearly up. So whatever
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: it is, I just add him. You move Fuwanga to
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: guard and you get one of the top guys, and
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: that's that. Now the question is do I change that
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: between tonight and tomorrow? Do I have them moving up
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: and going and getting JJ McCarthy instead of the Vikings.
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: Maybe I've got to do more calls on this. Do
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: I have them taking bo Nicks? Maybe? Whatever? For now,
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: Fuaga to the Broncos Raiders at thirteen, I don't know
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: what the hell to do with them. None of my
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: sources in Vegas can confirm that they like Michael Pennox,
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: but everyone else around the league tells me they love
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: Michael Pennix. I've got relationships with guys in Vegas. I've
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: asked them. They won't tell me. So what do I do?
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: Raiders take Michael Pennix fourteen Saints. I go with offensive
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: tackle Olu Fashanu penn State fifteen is now the Bears.
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: I have them going defensive tackle Byron Murphy out of Texas.
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: I told you in the last podcast and the Empty
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: and the Notebook. I think his stock is rising at
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: the right time. Bears trade out of nine. They miss
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: out on Neighbors, they miss out on Bowers, they miss
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: out on a lot of these tackles, including Joe Alt.
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: Now that we're looking at it, which is crazy. Wow,
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: Maybe I wouldn't have them trade if Joe Alt on
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: the board. Ooh, that's tempting. Anyway, they got a second
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: round pick, and instead they pick up Byron Murphy out
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: of Texas. Sixteen. We got a trade Aaron Seahawks trade out,
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: Eagles trade up. Eagles take Terry and Arnold out of Alabama.
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: Cornerback seventeen Jaguars. This one's fun Jaguars. I've got the
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: Jaguars going with Xavier Worthy, the burner. He's the fourth
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: wide receiver off the board. At one point, I was like,
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: I don't know if he's still the first round pick.
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: I've got Worthy going to the Jaguars. They were left
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: at the altar when Calvin Ridley left. They picked up
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: a big boy and Gabe Davis. Now they get a burner.
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: I think this is higher than anyone else has. Xavier Worthy.
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: I got them going seventeen to the Jaguars.
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: And is the fourth wide receiver.
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: Fourth wide receiver taken. All right, eighteen is the Bengals.
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: I've got them going Quinion Mitchell Corner out of Toledo.
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: They stay local, they get an outstanding athlete, and Mitchell
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: stays in the state of Ohio and plays for coach
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: loua and Roumo, who is one of the best defensive
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: backs coaches in the history of the game. All Right,
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: now we're at nineteen. This is where we get more trades.
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: I said it multiple times. I think the Rams are
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: going to take an offensive player at their first pick.
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: Chean McVay has never made a first round pick. I
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: don't think it comes here. I think the Rams trade out.
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: I have a trade partner. I've got the Kansas City
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: Chiefs moving up and going from thirty two to nineteen,
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: swapping their second rounder. Also, they give their first and
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: their second. I tell me, let's stop right here before
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: I tell you what they're taking. Are all these trades
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: annoying you think if you're listening, or all these trades fun?
• 14:07
  Speaker 2: I love this, and especially because I think there's been
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: a lot of talk over the past couple of weeks
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: about trades in the top ten. And yes, you know,
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: like the Cardinals not even wanting to engage in trade
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: talks until tomorrow morning means maybe nothing happens there. And
• 14:23
  Speaker 2: so the idea of there being so many trades from
• 14:26
  Speaker 2: nine to twenty five is incredible because usually like the
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: middle of the first round, like it might slow down
• 14:33
  Speaker 2: a little bit. But if there's this much movement, I
• 14:35
  Speaker 2: mean you saw you can't see me because it's a podcast,
• 14:38
  Speaker 2: but I am perking up every time you say a trade,
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: because here I am in this fantasy of this you know,
• 14:45
  Speaker 2: final mock draft for now of like, oh, are the
• 14:48
  Speaker 2: Bills moving up for Bryant's job? So like and maybe
• 14:53
  Speaker 2: you know the fact that like there's so much movement
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: in late again and.
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: And I'm gonna interrupt you, I might have the Broncos
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: moving up to nine instead of it. It might all change.
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: I'm just telling you there's gonna be trades and there's
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: gonna be maneuvering and the JJ McCarthy thing is a
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: huge trigger. But also all of these kind of spots
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: in the corner. So like I have the Eagles trading
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: up to get Terry and Arnold, Well, that's because he's
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: the top corner on the board and he's falling in
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: this mount draft to sixteen.
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and that's that's part of it, is like so
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: much talk about quarterbacks, so much talk about wide receivers,
• 15:23
  Speaker 2: and there's gonna be great offensive line guys who are falling.
• 15:25
  Speaker 2: There's gonna be great cornerbacks like Quiney on Mitchell at eighteen.
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: I mean, I don't know. I think this is oh
• 15:32
  Speaker 2: and yeah, I love how many trades you have sort
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: of going in this middle of the red.
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: Thank you nineteen Chiefs. They take Amarus Mims, offensive tackle
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: out of Georgia, just a monster. Zeus Brown obviously has
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: moved on. They've had a lot of different movement at
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: the tackle position over the last several years. Amarius Mims
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: is an absolute monster. And if I'm being honest, I
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: could see the Rams being not only a trade back
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: team at nineteen, a multiple trade back team. The Rams
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: they love, love love to score on Day two in
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: Day three, and if you look at their success rate
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: over the last couple of years, they have nailed a bunch.
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: Their whole team has been built that way. I don't
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: think it's out of the question that they just trade
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: out of the first round. So let's have the Rams
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: trading out, the Chiefs trading up, which leaves the Steelers
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: at twenty our fifth wide receiver, take and I go.
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: Brian Thomas wide receiver out of LSU. Excellent player. And
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: the one thing I would say with Pittsburgh, and I've
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: noticed before when they made that trade to get Russell Wilson,
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: and then they made that trade, they signed Russell, they
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: traded traded Russell and also traded for Justin Field and
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: they signed They signed Russ They've traded for justin Field.
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: Everyone in the league was like, all right, what are
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: they doing at wide receiver? They've done anything wide receiver.
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: So Brandon and I and Brandon Eyuk is the name
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: everyone's watching. Brian Thomas twentieth overall would make a lot
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: of sense a wide receiver. Twenty one. We got another
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: trade pal Dolphins trade out, Lions trade up, Lions trade up.
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: In the Lions a pass rusher to go with in Hutchinson.
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: They take Jared Verse out of Florida State at twenty one,
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: and this place will go electric, like, oh, who we
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: take it and say Jared Verse since we want of those?
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: Like okay, great? Uh twenty two I have Seattle now
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: because they made a trade with the Eagles and they
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: go with Fatanu, the big tackle out of Washington. Boring,
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: but the offensive coordinator, Ryan Grubb was with Fatanu there
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: might be medical stuff there. That's one of those where
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: like there's like a little asterisk. I'm not sure exactly what,
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: but I've heard like it's not as it's not as
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: clean as everyone wants. So I dinged him a little bit.
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: He goes down to twenty two, which is the lowest
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: I've seen him drafted. This is the offensive tackle out
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: of Washington. Twenty three. The Vikings kept their pick. The
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: Vikings take kool Aid McKinstry, defensive back out of Alabama.
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: It's kind a ton of swag. He is I think
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: either the first, second or third corner taken in this draft.
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: I've got him in this simulation as the third gone.
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: He goes twenty three to minutes, which means the Vikings
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: would get JJ McCarthy and kool Aid McKinstry a pretty
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: good haul in the first round for those guys. Cowboys.
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: At twenty four, we go with Tyler Geiton, offensive tackle
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: out of Oklahoma. Cooper Dejeen out of Odebolt, Iowa, town
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: of nine hundred. He's going to go to the Green
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: Bay Packers. Do you think he'll be a fan favorite?
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: I think he will. Twenty six Tampa Bay Buccaneers. They
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: go interior offensive line. I got them going Graham Barton
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: out of Duke twenty seven Cardinals. They keep the pick,
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: they go Darius Robinson defensive line at a Missouri twenty eight. Aaron,
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: you're Buffalo Bills. Let's see, let's put you on the clock.
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: A lot of guys out there. Is there anyone in
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: particular you're looking at?
• 18:57
  Speaker 2: You know? The one name that I have sort of
• 19:01
  Speaker 2: sneakily wanted for the Bills is Cooper Dejeen. So I'm
• 19:03
  Speaker 2: a little bummed he's gone, But I think at this
• 19:06
  Speaker 2: point I'd love to see the Bills take eighty Mitchell.
• 19:08
  Speaker 2: Despite all the potential problems in red flags we've got
• 19:11
  Speaker 2: with him, I think he would be a nice addition
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: to the autum.
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: Twenty eighth overall, the Buffalo Bills select ad Mitchell. That's
• 19:17
  Speaker 1: what I have awesome. Twenty nine the Dolphins traded down,
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: they still get Chop Robinson, okay, which leads to thirty.
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: And there's a player that I had in the top
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: twelve last mock draft who's now going thirtieth overall. I
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: feel terrible. I think a Lot too out of UCLA
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: goes to the Ravens all the way down there at thirty,
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: I think he's like twenty to thirty as opposed to
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: ten to twenty, which is where I think most people
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: had him. So Lot two to the Ravens. And then
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: we finished with the forty nine ers. I keep them
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: having Lad McConkie. I love that one. I think that's
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: just perfect. And then thirty two. I told you I'm
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: would have a team trade up into the end of
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: the one. I've got the Rams to thirty second pick
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: and have them trading out of it again. And I've
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: got the New England Patriots trading up to thirty two
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: to jump the Carolina Panthers, who will likely take a
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: wide receiver at thirty three. And I've got the Patriot
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: taking Xavier leget out of South Carolina, meaning the Patriots
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: would have quarterbacks Drake May and Jacoby Brissett and their
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: wide receiver would be Xavier Leaguet out of South Carolina.
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: That's how they would do it. The Rams guys too
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: busy partying at their draft house in Hermosa Beach, they
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: fall asleep, they end up trading out and they do
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: not have a first round pick. So that is how
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: we have it. Do you want me to rattle through
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: it one last time? Yeah, let's go. Okay, so we
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: did all that explanations. If you're listening at.
• 20:39
  Speaker 2: Home as of four o'clock and it's going to.
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: Change, guys, well, this is how the exercise was done.
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: I've been on the phones the last couple of days
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: and here's where we're at. Bears Caleb Williams, Commanders, Jaden Daniels,
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: Patriots Drake May, Cardinals Marvin Harrison. Chargers no trade take
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: JC Latham fifth overall, Giants take Roma Doonesay wide receivers
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: sixth overall. Seven Minnesota Vikings trade up with the Tennessee Titans.
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: Minnesota takes JJ McCarthy. Eight, Atlanta takes Dallas Turner nine.
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: We have another trade. Indianapolis trades up to get brock Bowers. Ten.
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: The New York Jets trade up to stay the same
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: and they take Malik Neighbors, which I haven't seen anywhere,
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: and I don't know if he's gonna be around at ten,
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: but that's fun. Eleven. Tennessee, they traded down. They still
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: get Joe Alt twelve, Broncos Tali Fuaga Raiders thirteen, Michael
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: Pennix Saints fourteen, Olufashanu fifteen. The Bears had traded down.
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: They get Byron Murphy sixteen. Eagles trade up, they get
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: Terry and Arnold seventeen, Jaguars take Xavier Worthy eighteen. Bengals
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: take quine On Mitchell out of Toledo. Nineteen. The Chiefs
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: make a trade. They go and get Amarius Mims twenty
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: Steelers Brian Thomas twenty one. Lions trade up, they get
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: Jared Vers twenty two. Seahawks. They go and they trade back.
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: They get Fatanu out of Washington, the offensive Town Vikings,
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: kool Aid McKinstry twenty third. Overall, Cowboys stay where they're at.
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: They take Tyler Geiton Offensive Tackle Project out of Oklahoma.
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: Packers at twenty five take Cooper dejen out of Iowa.
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: Twenty sixth Tampa Bay takes Graham Barton interior offensive lineman
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: at a duke. Twenty seven Arizona Cardinals take Darius Robinson
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: out of Missouri. Twenty eight Buffalo Bills take a d
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: Mitchell wide receiver out of Texas. Twenty nine Dolphins trade
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: back they take Chop Robinson out of Penn State. Thirty
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: Baltimore Ravens take a lot To out of UCLA, forty
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: nine Ers, thirty one take Lad McConkie out of Georgia,
• 22:46
  Speaker 1: and thirty two the Patriots trade back into the first
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: round and they take Xavier Lagette wide receiver out of
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: South Carolina. A couple names not on this thing, the
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: Big Boy Newton out of Illinois. Not in this thing.
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: We no longer have Jordan Morgan out Arizona and the
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: Big One. I don't have bo Nicks going in the
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: first round.
• 23:06
  Speaker 2: One name you mentioned in the episode but was not
• 23:09
  Speaker 2: mentioned anywhere on here, and sort of the teams who
• 23:12
  Speaker 2: have taken wide receivers makes me think that nothing will happen.
• 23:15
  Speaker 2: But with the forty nine ers taking Lad McConkie do
• 23:17
  Speaker 2: you think that means they're they're keeping AYUKH.
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: Don't know insurance policy. Maconkie could play a million roles. Yah, yeah,
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: it makes sense. That is what I have As a
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: four o'clock I will not be clicking submit. I've got
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: a lot of phone calls to make. It's actually, in
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: a lot of ways exhausting exercise. But you know where
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: my brain is scrambled eggs wise when I've got a
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: mock draft and I'm trying to project ten different trades
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: just to try to hit the right teams and the
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: right guys.
• 23:44
  Speaker 2: And I love, I personally love hearing you do things
• 23:47
  Speaker 2: like oh, yeah, so the Titans are going to move down?
• 23:51
  Speaker 2: Oh wait no, actually if still there, they wouldn't have
• 23:54
  Speaker 2: moved out.
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: Yeah. I loved hearing that, or the other Bears Bears,
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: like does Joe Alt from Notre Dame not make a
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: ton of sense for the Bears. Yeah? Yeah. Anyway, guys,
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: I would say we do another one tomorrow. Maybe we can,
• 24:08
  Speaker 1: I don't know, but for now, post this, let's get
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: it up there. Mock draft final Final, Final with an
