2021 NFL Draft DB Prospect Rankings: 5 corners could go in Round 1, but uncertainty around who will be selected 1st (Football 4/22)

We've made it to the secondary and our last group of prospect position rankings. Will Brinson welcomes on Josh Edwards to break down his top 10 defensive backs, combining both cornerbacks and safeties onto the same list. It's a list that includes several players with famous football-playing fathers including #10 Asante Samuel Jr, #5 Jaycee Horn and #1 Patrick Surtain II. Trevon Moehrig out of TCU is the highest-rated safety according to Josh, but the Top 10 is dominated by CBs. We know a slew of them will be selected in the first round, but there remains uncertainty about which one will be first off the board...'Pick Six' is available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher, Google Podcasts, Castbox and wherever else you listen to podcasts. You can listen to Pick Six on your smart speakers!

2021 NFL Draft EDGE/LB Prospect Rankings: Will anyone other than Micah Parsons be the 1st linebacker off the board? (Football 4/21)

Time to tackle the top EDGE and LB prospects in the 2021 NFL Draft and to do so, Will Brinson welcomes on Josh Edwards for his Top 5 guys at each position. 2 Miami players make the list at EDGE, but neither hold the top spot. Who holds that distinction (2:45)? We also examine the LBs (22:45) with a focus on who could be the 1st player off the board. Micah Parsons out of Penn State is the obvious answer, but Will and Josh try to look for value. Jamin Davis from Kentucky is a name to keep an eye on in case Parsons slips. 'Pick Six' is available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher, Google Podcasts, Castbox and wherever else you listen to podcasts. You can listen to Pick Six on your smart speakers!

2021 NFL Draft OL/DL Prospect Rankings: Breaking down the strong OL class headlined by Penei Sewell and weak DT class (Football 4/21)

The prospect rankings continue as Chris Trapasso joins Will Brinson to break down his top offensive line and defensive line players in the 2021 NFL Draft. We start with the side that has much more enticing prospects and that's the OL (4:30). Alijah Vera-Tucker is a promising player out of USC climbing up draft boards, but Trapasso has him lower than most because he thinks he projects on the interior at the next level. Rashawn Slater could be considered the consensus #2 tackle prospect, but Chris has him lower. There's no hesitation in labeling Penei Sewell the best of the bunch, but that doesn't mean there is value on him to be the first OL selected. Christian Darrisaw might be worth thinking about as a value play though. Next, the guys switch sides and hit on the top DTs in this class (24:45). Expect only 1-2 to be chosen in the 1st round. Check out Trapasso's Big Board here: https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/draft/news/nfl-draft-2021-big-board-top-200-notre-dames-jeremiah-owusu-koramoah-in-top-10-wideouts-and-corners-galore/'Pick Six' is available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher, Google Podcasts, Castbox and wherever else you listen to podcasts. You can listen to Pick Six on your smart speakers!

2021 NFL Draft RB Prospect Rankings: Najee Harris leads the pack while Travis Etienne falls outside of the Top 2 (Football 4/20)

This episode continues to cover skill position prospects in the upcoming 2021 NFL Draft. Emory Hunt joins Will Brinson to focus on the running backs in this year's class. 2 UNC RBs land inside the Top 10, but Emory ranks 1 much higher and 1 much lower than the consensus. Trey Sermon balled out on a big stage at Ohio State, but will his game translate to the next level? Jermar Jefferson, Khalil Herbert and Pooka Williams are names to keep an eye on as well. Then, we get to the #3 slot which features Travis Etienne, who some have as the top back in 2021. The Alabama product, Najee Harris, leads the way, but Emory still says not to count on a RB being selected in the 1st round. 'Pick Six' is available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher, Google Podcasts, Castbox and wherever else you listen to podcasts. You can listen to Pick Six on your smart speakers!

2021 NFL Draft WR/TE Prospect Rankings: Chase, Smith, Waddle lead WR class while Kyle Pitts alone at the top of the TEs + Alex Smith announces his retirement (Football 4/20)

Last week we covered the quarterbacks and this week we're hitting all the other positions, previewing the top prospects in each group. On this episode Ryan Wilson joins Will Brinson to break down the top wide receivers and tight ends in the 2021 NFL Draft. But first, the guys offer their reactions to the end of a super impressive career from Alex Smith (4:15). Smith announced his retirement on Monday after years as an above-average quarterback and one of the most miraculous comebacks in league history. Then, Ryan dishes his Top 10 WR prospect rankings (13:15). Pay attention to names like Rondale Moore, Amari Rodgers and Tylan Wallace as we get to Day 2 and beyond. But up top is where the real focus is as Ja'Marr Chase, DeVonta Smith and Jaylen Waddle are in a class of their own. We analyze what's so special about their games and where they could be selected. Then, our attention shifts to the tight ends led by Kyle Pitts (41:00). There more than likely won't be another TE picked in the 1st round, but still plenty to be impressed by and potentially surprised by in this class. Check out Ryan's Big Board here: www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/nfl-draft-2021-big-board-top-150-kyle-pitts-jamarr-chase-crack-top-three-in-class-deep-at-wr-cb-and-ol/'Pick Six' is available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher, Google Podcasts, Castbox and wherever else you listen to podcasts. You can listen to Pick Six on your smart speakers!

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)

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?

📬 Mailbag: Smokescreen for the 49ers at #3? Are we too harsh on Tua? Dream all-time Super Bowl matchup? (Football 4/16)

Will Brinson is joined by Ryan Wilson and John Breech to answer questions from the Pick Six mailbag. The guys first discuss the 49ers thought process at #3 and why Mac Jones shouldn't be considered a lock in that spot. Hello, Justin Fields! 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?

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

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. 'Pick Six' is available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher, Google Podcasts, Castbox and wherever else you listen to podcasts. You can listen to Pick Six on your smart speakers!
