First, the guys detail what Lance brings to the table and follow that up with all the options of where he could land in the draft. '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 Draft QB Prospect Week: Jets and 49ers could be making big mistake by passing on Justin Fields (Football 4/14)

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. '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!

Sam Darnold traded to the Panthers: What it means for Darnold's future, the Jets, #2 pick & #8 pick (Football 4/7)

Will Brinson is joined by Chris Trapasso for a comprehensive breakdown of the Jets trading Sam Darnold to the Panthers. After 3 seasons, New York has given up on the former #3 overall pick. What went wrong during his tenure? Now it looks like they'll spend the #2 pick on another QB, likely Zach Wilson, so Trapasso gives us a detailed breakdown of the BYU product. The guys also evaluate the move from the Panthers perspective and why Carolina was alright with giving up on Teddy Bridgewater. How will the 8th pick and rest of the Top 10 be altered after this deal?

📬 Mailbag: How underrated is Patrick Mahomes' contract? Who will win the AFC North? Who'd be the best head coach: Brady, Manning or Rodgers? (Football 4/6)

The Pick Six Mailbag is back for a Tuesday edition with questions pouring in. Will Brinson is joined by Ryan Wilson and John Breech to answer questions from the listeners. We applauded the Chiefs for the terms of Patrick Mahomes' contract last year, but could it go down as one of the best deals ever? Alright Breech, you're on the clock...What would you do if the Bengals had the #1 overall pick this year after taking Joe Burrow #1 last year? We examine another hypothetical: if Matthew Stafford wins a Super Bowl with the Rams, which team would he enter the Hall of Fame for? What if the NBA's "Stepien Rule" was transferred to football? Those answers and way more including a positive spin on the Steelers, which legendary QBs would make the best coaches, if we'll ever see a legitimate 2-QB system in the NFL and what happens to fan bases when teams move?'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!

Mock Draft Monday 8.0: Renewed focus on the Top 12, Pro Day Evaluations for Kyle Pitts, Ja'Marr Chase, Justin Fields, Mac Jones & more (Football 4/5)

Will Brinson is joined by Ryan Wilson for another Mock Draft Monday. With last week's shakeup to the draft order in the form of 2 blockbuster trades, there is now a renewed focus and new outlook on the Top 12 picks. Before diving into those mock selections, Ryan breaks down recent Pro Day performances and whether we should be buying all these crazy numbers (1:35). One thing we know for certain is that Florida "TE" Kyle Pitts is off-the-charts athletic. How high can his pre-draft workouts place him? Ja'Marr Chase is another offensive weapon that wowed. Is he a lock to be the first WR off the board? Of course, there's a ton of buzz on the quarterbacks, especially Justin Fields and Mac Jones following their Pro Days. What's the current stance on those guys? Then, we go pick 1-12 in Wilson's latest mock (23:00). '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!
