Two weeks ahead of the 2021 NFL Draft, Pat Daugherty, John Daigle and Denny Carter join Matt Stroup to look at some of the players we are targeting (or plan to target) in every fantasy draft. We debate the upside of both star wide receivers in Atlanta (Julio Jones and Calvin Ridley), discuss why the ceiling is absurdly high for A.J. Brown, and break down our expectations for Cam Akers, J.K. Dobbins and Ezekiel Elliott coming off his maddening 2020 campaign. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Thor Nystrom and Eric Froton join Matt Stroup to look at the needs for the NFC North teams in the 2021 NFL Draft. Will the Packers finally add a first-round wide receiver for Aaron Rodgers to throw to — and if so, who will it be? Meanwhile, the Bears are in a difficult spot — priced out of the quarterback market — as they start the Andy Dalton era. We discuss the potential options for the Vikings to shore up their offensive line (including the dream scenario of trading up to land Penei Sewell), and the pass catchers the Lions could potentially target at seventh overall (with Ja’Marr Chase, Kyle Pitts and Jaylen Waddle among their best-case options). Plus, a look at Eric’s list of the top five EDGE rushers in this class, headlined by Miami’s Jaelan Phillips, who retired — and un-retired — before his breakout 2020 season.

John Daigle and Pat Daugherty join Matt Stroup to look closely at some situations where the upcoming NFL Draft could put a considerable dent in an established player's fantasy value. We discuss the looming threat to James Robinson's upside in Jacksonville, the moment in the Draft when we'll know Chase Edmonds is in the clear for Arizona, why Raheem Mostert may have missed his window in San Fran, and how the Dolphins draft capital signals clear concerns for Myles Gaskin.

Thor Nystrom and Eric Froton join Matt Stroup to discuss the draft needs for all the teams in the NFC East — from the suddenly intriguing Washington Football Team to the Eagles, who have traded down to 12th overall and appear set to move forward (for at least one year) with Jalen Hurts. Should Philadelphia and Washington target a wide receiver in the first round? Would the Giants or the Cowboys put other needs aside if one of the top pass-catchers (like DeVonta Smith) is still on the board? We examine all of those possibilities, then Eric brings us a detailed breakdown of the top interior defensive linemen in the 2021 NFL Draft, led by Alabama’s Christian Barmore.

Patrick Daugherty, Denny Carter and Hayden Winks discuss 2020’s “prayer yards” all stars, wide receivers who failed to convert bountiful air yards opportunities into, you know, actual yards. The players debated include D.J. Chark, Marquise Brown and Darnell Mooney. The gang also talks about their post-COVID excitement, while Hayden makes an announcement at the end of the show.

John Daigle, Pat Daugherty and Denny Carter join Matt Stroup to break down 10 big surprises from NFL free agency. We discuss Aaron Jones returning to Green Bay (and what that means for Jones and AJ Dillon), the massive target share that looms for A.J. Brown in Tennessee after the team didn't add a big-name wide receiver, and how the Panthers' plans at QB leave a huge opportunity for a yet-to-be-determined passer. Plus, the Ravens, Chiefs and Saints all have at least one question mark at wide receiver, so we examine what that means for Marquise Brown, Mecole Hardman and Tre'Quan Smith. Also on this episode: Denny brings us the Andy Dalton hype that we didn't realize we needed. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Thor Nystrom and Hayden Winks join Matt Stroup to complete Part 2 (picks 17-32) of our NFL Mock Draft. With the top five quarterbacks already off the board during Part 1, attention shifts in this part of the draft to high-upside wide receivers, including Rashod Bateman and Terrace Marshall Jr. Thor also stuns the draft room by picking an RB 30th — and one who is not Najee Harris. We also see a run on edge rushers, and the Super Bowl champ Tampa Bay Buccaneers hitting another potential home run at the end of the first. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
