It's time for Part 2 of my NFL Draft Recap as I give my assessment of each team's performance during all three days of the NFL Draft, taking a look at all 257 picks.  Part 1 saw my review the picks from the first 16 teams alphabetically, from Arizona through Kansas City.  Part 2 will cover the remaining teams, from the Los Angeles Chargers through the Washington Commanders.

The NFL Draft has come and gone and now it's time to take a look at how all 32 teams did during the three days of the draft.  I'll provide my assessment of all 257 picks in the 2024 NFL Draft and Part 1 will cover the first 16 teams alphabetically, from the Arizona Cardinals through the Kansas City Chiefs.  

The NFL Draft is finally upon us and I have released my final mock draft.  This podcast is dedicated to my final 1st Round mock.  I don't forecast any trades, but tried to find the right fits regardless of the current draft position.  How many QBs come off the board in Round One?  Can we really see 7 WRs come off the board in the first 32 picks?  I'll break it all down.  And my full seven-round mock draft is posted on readyforthedraft.com.  Enjoy! 

It's time to take a look at the DB positions and Specialists by the numbers for the NFL Draft.  We could see 5-6 CBs come off the board in Round 1, but my CB1 is Toledo's Quinyon Mitchell.  There is depth on all three days of the draft with the CB class.  The safety class this year doesn't have a 1st Rounder, but you'll see good depth on Days 2 and 3.  And just how many specialists will we see drafted?  You can bet Iowa cult hero Tory Taylor will be one.

It's time to take a look at the DT position by the numbers for the NFL Draft.  While we know that Dallas Turner will be selected in the top 15 picks, when will we see the first off-ball LB taken in this year's draft?  In all likelihood it will be Edgerrin Cooper, but could he really sneak into the end of Round 1 or is he destined to come off the board at the top of Round 2?  A healthy Payton Wilson could have been this year's Jack Campbell, but as it stands he's an easy Day 2 pick.  The depth of this LB group is really mid-Day 2 through mid-Day 3.

It's time to take a look at the DT position by the numbers for the NFL Draft.  It's true that we may only see two DTs come off the board in the 1st Round - Byron Murphy II and Johnny Newton.  However, the sweet spot of this year's DT class may actually be on Day 2.

It's time to take a look at the DE position by the numbers for the NFL Draft.  Laiatu LAtu may b the top defensive player off the board, but expect Jared Verse and Chop Robinson to also hear their names called in Round 1.  But what about Bralen Trice and Darius Robinson?  Will they also be selected in the first 32 picks or will a team get a potential steal at the top of Day 2?  Who are the sleepers coming off the board on Day 3?

It's time to take a look at the OL by the numbers for the NFL Draft.  There's a chance that we'll see six or seven OTs drafted in the 1st Round, but is Joe Alt a lock to be the top OT taken?  JC Latham and Taliese Fuaga are the top RT prospects while Troy Fautanu and Graham Barton look to have five-position versatility.  While the depth of the OT position appears to be top heavy, keep an eye on the OG position in the middle rounds.

 It's time to take a look at the TE position by the numbers for the NFL Draft.  Will Brock Bowers be a top ten pick?  Who's next off the board?  Will it be Ja'Tavion Sanders?  Ben Sinnott?  And how many TEs will be selected on Day 2 of the draft?

 It's time to take a look at the WR position by the numbers for the NFL Draft.  All signs point to Marvin Harrison Jr., Malik Nabers and Rome Odunze coming off the board in the first ten picks, but can we see as many as seven WRs taken in Round One?  This WR class appears to be special with depth in all three days of the draft.  

 It's time to take a look at the tHe RB position by the numbers as it relates to the RB position.  Who's RB1 in this year's draft class - Jonathon Brooks or Trey Benson?  How many Day 2 RBs will there be?  And how about the depth of the draft class, how many RBs can we expect to be drafted this year?  

 It's time to take a look at the NFL Draft by the numbers.  This next series of podcasts breaks down each position and takes a look at just how many players were drafted at that position over the last five years and just how many were taken in each round.  What does history tell us about the QB position and where might we expect this year's QB draft class to come off the board? 

In this episode, I take time to talk about some of the hot topics related to the 2024 NFL Draft.  What do I think of the meteoric rise of JJ McCarthy?  Where will Michael Penix Jr. go in the draft?  How many WRs will come off the board in Round 1?  What are some interesting trade possibilities on Day 1 of the draft?

 There have been a lot of moves in free agency.  How have they impacted the draft?  I take a look at each team's first pick and discuss how their moves this offseason affect how they'll draft.

Episode 21 is devoted to recapping the offensive performances at the Combine.  With Caleb Williams, Jaylen Daniels and Drake Maye not throwing, that allowed JJ McCarthy, Michael Penix Jr. and Bo Nix to showcase their skills.  At RB, did Trey Benson emerge as the top RB?  Where did Blake Corum rank?  Is Marshawn Lloyd the best receiving RB?  Xavier Worthy ran the fastest 40 time ever at the Combine, but he wasn't the only WR to impress. Rome Odunze made his case as a top-10 pick with Marvin Harrison Jr. and Malik Nabers not working out.  Would you believe the most impressive TE may have been Tip Reiman?  And who was the most impressive OL to work out between Joe Alt, Olu Fashanu, Taliese Fuaga and Troy Fautanu?

In episode 20, I review the defesive performances at the Combine and breakdown who excelled, who struggled and who the surprises were.  On Day 1 of the Combine, we saw the DL and LBs work out.  Edge rushers Dallas Turner, Jared Verse and Laiatu Latu solidified their status at the top of their position group while Byron Murphy II set himself apart as the top DT, while Edgerrin Cooper and Payton Wilson proved they are the top LBs in this year's draft.  Day 2 showcased the DBs and TEs.  Quinyon Mitchell continues to turn heads.  Is he now CB1?  And at TE, with Brock Bowers not working out, who stepped up?

 We covered the defense in the last podcast, so now it's time to focus on the back half of the Combine with the offense.  Even though top stars Caleb Williams, Jayden Daniels, Drake Maye, Marvin Harrison Jr. and Malik Nabers won't be working out, there will be plenty of star power with the likes of Rome Odunze, Joe Alt and Olu Fashanu taking the field.  JJ McCarthy, Bo Nix and Michael Penix Jr. make up the second tier of QBs and they are all working out.  Who will separate himself from the pack?  Which WRs and OTs will turn heads?  And which RB will showcase the most all-around skillset?  Stay tuned!

 The last weekened in February means it's NFL Combine time!  320 players have been invited to the Combine and will be working out Thursday March 29th through Sunday March 3rd.  The first two days will be all about the defense witht the DL and LB on Thursday and the DB group working out with the TE's.  This podcast is dedicated to the defense, talking through who I'm looking forward to seeing.  Laiatu Latu and Jared Verse have a chance to put their stamp on EDGE1 while Dallas Turner gets his shot later working out with the LB's.  Medicals will also be key for Latu and LB Payton Wilson as a clean bill of health will undoubtedly improve their stock.  At DB, watch the feet and transitions from CB1 Terrion Arnold while Quinyon Mitchell, Kool-Aid McKinstry and Nate Wiggins do battle to see who emerges as CB2 behind Arnold.  Those are just a few exciting narratives I'm looking forward to watching play out this weekend.

The Senior Bowl is in the books and plenty of players turned heads during their time in Mobile.  OT's Taliese Fuaga and Tyler Guyton, C Jackson Powers-Johnson, CB Quinyon Mitchell and DE Darius Robinson all put a stamp on their 1st Round status, but they're not the only ones who impressed.  I also provide an updated top 10 mock.   

In Episode 16, I take a look at the players at each position I'm most looking forward to watching at the Senior Bowl in Mobile.  QB's Bo Nix and Michael Penix Jr., WR's Xavier Legette and Devontez Walker, OT's Taliese Fuaga and Tyler Guyton, Edge defender Laiatu Latu, DT's T'Vondre Sweat and Braden Fiske, LB's Payton Wilson and Cedric Gray, CB's Quinyon Mitchell and Kalen King and safeties Kam Kinchens and Javon Bullard are just a few of the big names taking the field.  Who else should you keep an eye on?  I got you covered there too!

 Episode 15 helps put a bow on the 2023 College Football season by reviewing the performances of the draft-eligible prospects in the CFP National Championship.  Michael Penix Jr. and JJ McCarthy will definitely be polarizing and neither really did anything to solidify their standing in the draft.  Michigan's D-Line proved to be dominant, though Troy Fautanu solidified his status as a 1st Round OL.  Rome Odunze is a top-10 pick while Blake Corum is a top-five back, but where will Ja'Lynn Polk and Roman Wilson crash the party on Day 2?

The CFP National Championship matchup is set - # 1 Michigan vs. # 2 Washington.  I take a look at both teams' performances in the semifinals - Michigan's 27-20 OT win over # 4 Alabama and Washington holding on to beat hard-charging # 3 Texas 37-31.  I use those performances to talk through the matchups to look for in Houston.  Not only will we have a QB showdown between JJ McCarthy and Michael Penix Jr. in what could be a battle to be the 4th QB taken in the draft, but we'll look at the passing attacks and how they might have success against the run.  Which defensive front will be able to break through against the nation's top two OL's? Will Washington load the box to stop the run?  If so, can we expect McCarthy and Co. to try to exploit matchups down the field?  Can Jabbar Muhammad and Elijah Jackson play like they did to limit the success of Xavier Worthy and Adonai Mitchell to shut down the likes of Roman Wilson and Cornelus Johnson?  TE Ja'Tavion Sanders was effective against the Huskies so can we expect a similar performance from Colston Loveland?  Or will Michigan look to impose its will against a UW DL that has gave up yards against Texas.  Michigan will want to keep Penix Jr. off the field, so expect a heavy dose of Blake Corum.  When Washington has the ball, I expect Rome Odunze, Ja'Lynn Polk, Jalen McMillan and Germie Bernard to make plays against the Wolverine secondary, even if an ailing Dillon Johnson is limited or can't go with his foot injury.  Jack Westover will play a pivotal role.  Jaylan Ford didn't have the foot speed to hang with Westover, something we don't have to worry about with Junior Colson and Michael Barrett.  And even if Breiden McGregor, Kris Jenkins and Kenneth Grant can get a push up front or Jaylen Harrell and Josaiah Stewart can bring speed off the edge, Michael Penix Jr. showed against Texas he can manipulate the pocket to avoid the rush and buy time before setting his feet and to deliver a strike down the field. 

And with Week 18 in the books, we know what the top 10 looks like and I give my initial thoughts on how those picks might play out.  Could we see 3 QB come off the board in the top 5?  What about 4 in the top 10???  And could we see 3 WR and a TE selected before pick # 11?  With 2 OT as virtual locks to be off the board in the first ten picks, is there room at the top of the draft for a defensive player and, if so, who might crash the party to prevent and all-offense top 10? 

It's time for the second half of the bowl preview series where I take a look at the top prospects to watch for in each of the bowl games on the back half of the schedule from December 27th through the CFP Semi Finals on January 1st.  What can we expect when Michigan takes on Bama in the Rose Bowl?  Can the Michigan OL handle Dallas Turner and Chris Braswell?  Or if they get home off the edge early, will the Wolverines pivot to the run game like they did with Penn State.  And can Bama produce enough big plays against Jesse Minter's defense which has been so tough to score on?  And which defense can slow down the offensive firepower that both the Washington and Texas offenses will bring to the table?  We could expect the battle to be won in the trenches where putting pressure on the QB will be the key.

Bowl season is upon us and it's time for me to provide at least one draft prospect to watch out for in every bowl matchup.  Episode 12 dives into the first seven bowl games played during the opening weekend of bowls and look at everything from the deluge in Orlando that was the Cure Bowl to UCLA's comeback win over Boise State.  How did the 2024 draft prospects fare in those games?  And then I preview the rest of the first half og the slate of bowl games, from the Famous Toastery Bowl between Western Kentucky and Old Dominion to on December 18th through the games on December 26th which is capped off by Kansas and UNLV in the Guaranteed Rate Bowl.

We've come to the end of the regular season, meaning it's time to learn the finalists of the year-end awards.  The same trio of finalists for the Davey O'Brien and Maxwell Awards, Jayden Daniels, Michael Penix Jr. and Bo Nix are the favorites to be in New York for the Heisman Trophy.  Who's the favorite?  While Penix Jr. and Nix have had banner seasons for the Pac-12, no player has had the season Jayden Daniels has had.  Forget about the three losses, I expect Daniels to not only win the Heisman in December, but to also hear his name called on Day One of the NFL Draft in April.

After not recording a podcast in a while, I'm back and ready to talk football!  I enjoyed a trip to Peru with my family at the end of September and had a phenomenal time.  From Machu Picchu to Rainbow Mountain to the cuisine, all of it amazing!  The trip put me a week behind reviewing tape, so I've been playing catchup, but now is the time to bring the content back!  Caleb Williams and Drake Maye may be QBs 1 and 2, but the Heisman race may be down to Bo Nix and Michael Penix Jr.  And who out of the quartet of Marvin Harrison Jr., Malik Nabers, Keon Coleman and Rome Odunze will come off the board in the top 10?  Best edge rusher - Dallas Turner, Chop Robinson or Laiatu Latu?  And at OT, it's clear Olu Fashanu and Joe Alt are the top tackles, but who is No. 3?  Is it Taliese Fuaga, Jordan Morgan, JC Latham or Amarius Mims?

 The 2023 college football season appears to be the year of the QB as the spotlight was again on the QB position in Week 2.  Shedeur Sanders is proving each week to be in the conversation as a top-10 pick while Caleb Williams ended up with more total TD (4) than incompletions (3), while JJ McCarthy has just 7 incompletions through 2 games.  Quinn Ewers showcased much-improved deep ball accuracy in an upset win of Alabama,  Tyler Van Dyke appears to be returning to his 2021 form, while Bo Nix came up big in Oregon's come-from-behind victory over Texas Tech.

College football is officially here!  What did we learn from Week 1?  Shedeur Sanders, Jordan Travis and Riley Leonard have entered the conversation for the No. 3 QB in the draft with Michael Penix Jr. and Bo Nix behind Caleb Williams and Drake Maye.  Keon Coleman has emerged as WR2 while Olu Fashanu's freakish athleticism may have him firmly entrenched in the top 5 and Laiatu Latu is likely EDGE2 after a three-sack performance against Coastal Carolina.  I break down what I saw in the 24 games I was able to watch Friday-Monday of Labor Day Weekend.

Week 0 of the College Football season is in the books.  Caleb Williams had an easy day at the office showcasing the arm talent that makes him the top QB prospect in this year's draft.  Sam Hartman had a successful debut for the Fighting Irish.  Hartman may not wow you with the arm strength and athleticism, but his veteran leadership gives off some Brock Purdy vibes.  

This podcast was recorded on Thursday 8/31 after those games were played, so I talk about what I saw from the likes of Tyler Nubin, Jeff Sims. Brennan Armstrong, Jackson Mitchell, John Celiscar and Tylan Grable, among others.  

I also break down what to expect for the remaining Week 1 games on tap for Friday through Monday, including the highly-anticipated rematch between LSU and Florida State.  Who will win the QB batle between Jayden Daniels and Jordan Travis?  What type of impact can Trey Benson have?  Will Jared Verse be the dominant force we expect him to be?

It's time to begin breaking down the conference matchups and identify the draft-eligible prospects playing a key role.  I'll also give my thoughts on how those prospects will position each team during the season.  It's time to talk about the Pac-12 which is in its final season of its existence as we know it.  The Conference of Champions is no more as eight teams will be playing in a different conference in 2024.  But if 2023 is the final year for the Pac-12, it's going to be quite the swan song as the conference may be at its deepest among QB in quite some time.  Caleb Williams was the Heisman Trophy winner in 2022 but feels like there is unfinished business at USC.  Then there's Michael Penix Jr., Bo Nix, Cam Rising, DJ Uiagalelei, Shedeur Sanders, Cameron Ward and Jayden De Laura.  That's a deep group of QB.  Make sure you keep your focus on the west coast this season because the competition will be at its highest it has been in quite some time.  

It's time to begin breaking down the conference matchups and identify the draft-eligible prospects playing a key role.  I'll also give my thoughts on how those prospects will position each team during the season.  The focus shifts to the ACC where it's expected that Florida State will give Clemson a run at the top of the conference.  Jordan Travis is primed for a big year on offense while Jared Verse can cement his status as a top-10 pick.  Clemson counters with a top defense with the duos of Jeremiah Trotter Jr. and Barrett Carter at LB and Tyler Davis and Ruke Orhorohoro at DT.  But the guy to watch in the ACC is Drake Maye, a legit Heisman frontrunner and a shoe-in as either the 1st or 2nd pick of the draft as Maye and Caleb Williams will battle it out all season to see who will hear their name called first.

It's time to begin breaking down the conference matchups and identify the draft-eligible prospects playing a key role.  I'll also give my thoughts on how those prospects will position each team during the season.  Episode 4 focuses on the Big XII, a conference once thought to be in trouble but now brings in four new teams for the 2023 season and is set to bring in anothr four next year.  2023 is also the final season for Texas and Oklahoma in the Big XII before they depart for the SEC.  Quinn Ewers has a chance to be a top three QB, Devin Neal deserves consideration as a top draft-eligible RB, Xavier Worthy has a shot at the 1st Round as does Cooper Beebe.  Defensively, keep an eye on Barryn Sorrell, Ethan Downs, Reggie Grimes, Collin Oliver and Rondell Bothroyd pressuring the QB, Dontay Corleone, Ricky Barber, Tony Bradford, Jaylon Hutchings and T'Vondre Sweat along the interior, Jaylan Ford and Danny Stutsman flying around and making plays at LB, with Josh Newton, Cobee Bryant, TJ Tampa, Jalen Catalon and Kenny Logan Jr. patrolling the back end of the defense.

It's time to begin breaking down the conference matchups and identify the draft-eligible prospects playing a key role.  I'll also give my thoughts on how those prospects will position each team during the season.  It's time to take a look at the Big 10, a conference that has made noise during the offseason by adding Oregon and Washington to a new roster that already includes USC and UCLA for 2024.  In the final season with 14 teams, the question is are you Team Ohio State or Team Michigan?  Ohio State has so many draft-eligible prospects worthy of consideration in the first two days of the draft, including two, Marvin Harrison Jr. and Emeka Egbuka, as potential top-10 picks.  Michigan has a proven commodity at QB in JJ McCarthy, who has a shot to be the 3rd QB off the board in April.  The Wolverines will boast one of the nation's top running games with a line that has six NFL-worthy OL and two RB's who could come off the board early on Day 2 of the draft in Blake Corum and Donovan Edwards.  Who will emerge from the West Division?  Will it be Iowa with its vaunted defense and an improved offense led by former Wolverine Cade McNamara?  Or will Luke Fickell and Phil Longo be able to change the game offensively in Wisconsin to position the Badgers as a contender?  Will Nebraska and Purdue be much improved under Matt Rhule and Ryan Walters?

It's time to begin breaking down the conference matchups and identify the draft-eligible prospects playing a key role.  I'll also give my thoughts on how those prospects will position each team during the season.  We'll start with the SEC, where back-to-back champs Georgia and Alabama appear to be at the top of their respective divisions, but the rest of the conference will be breathing down their necks.  With Stetson Bennett IV and Bryce Young off to the NFL, both the Dawgs and the Tide will be introducing new starting QB's to the fold, meaning Jayden Daniels, KJ Jefferson, Joe Milton, Spencer Rattler and Devin Leary will be battling it out to be the top QB prospect.  Is Malik Nabers the conference's top WR?  Can Dallas Turner and Kool-Aid McKinstry solidify their status as top-10 picks?  What about Brock Bowers and JC Latham? 

We've made it through the summer and it's time for the 2023 College Football Season!  Episode 1 takes a quick look at which draft-eligible prospects to be keeping an eye on as the season begins.  We know that Caleb Williams and Drake Maye will likely be dueling to be the 1st overall pick in the draft with Marvin Harrison Jr. and Olu Fashanu not far behind.  But taking it a step further, an early review of this draft class reveals an offense-heavy top 10.  In addition to the aforementioned trio, you have to expect OT's Joe Alt and JC Latham, TE Brock Bowers, WR Emeka Egbuka and QB's Bo Nix, Michael Penix, Jr. and even Quinn Ewers will be in consideration to come off the board at the top of the draft.  Defensively, on the other hand, the only sure bets appear to be EDGE defenders Jared Verse and Dallas Turner along with CB Kool-Aid McKinstry.  DT Maason Smith is the other name to watch out for if he can rebound from the devastating knee injury sustained during the first game last year against Florida State.  Clemson LB's Barrett Carter and Jeremiah Trotter Jr. also deserve some attention early, but do they have the requisite size to be considered a top-10 pick?  

Now that the 2023 NFL Draft cycle is in the books, it's time for a look ahead.  The final two podcasts of the 2023 Podcast Series will focus on looking into the future and the 2024 NFL Draft class.  Episode 37 will be dedicated to the offensive side of the ball, where the likes of Caleb Williams, Drake Maye, Marvin Harrison Jr., Brock Bowers, Olu Fashanu, Joe Alt and JC Latham will dominate the conversation.  However, I take try to mention at least ten players at each position for you to be on the lookout for when the 2023 college football season begins.

What do Andre Carter II, Jalen Redmond, Ivan Pace Jr., Lonnie Phelps, Rezjohn Wright, Aubrey Miller Jr., Shaka Heyward and Quindell Johnson all have in common?  They're all undrafted free agents.  In this episode, I take a look at the top Undrafted Free Agents in this year's draft class and name at least one UDFA for all 32 teams to keep an eye on during camp.  

It's time for the post-draft edition!  I take a look at the NFL draft selections of each of the NFL franchises.  Last podcast, I took a look at the first 16 teams in alphabetical order, starding with the Arizona Cardinals and ending with the reigning Super Bowl Champion Kansas City Chiefs.  In episode 35, I review the draft picks for the remaining 16 teams, from the Loss Angeles Chargers to the Washington Commanders. I provide my thoughts on how each team performed on draft day and how we should expect the draft picks to be used during the 2023 season.  

It's time for the post-draft edition!  I take a look at the NFL draft selections of each of the NFL franchises beginning alphabetically with the Atlanta Falcons and finish this podcast by looking at the reigning Super Bowl Champion Kansas City Chiefs.  Next podcast, I'll recap the remaining 26 teams, from the Los Angeles Chargers to the Washington Commanders.  

The 1st Round of the NFL Draft is in the books and I take provide my thoughts on all 31 picks, from Bryce Young going to Carolina to the Super Bowl champs KC selecting Felix Anudike-Uzomah.  I also take a look at the biggest surprises of the draft, including Will Levis' freefall along with Detroit's curious picks, as well as what to look for on Day 2 of the draft.

 Draft Day is here!  I recorded this podcast in the early morning hours of 4/27 to reveal my final 1st Round mock draft.  From there, I break down my picks for all 32 teams over the first two days of the draft.  Bryce Young is the No. 1 overall pick, but what Houston does at No. 2 is still up in the air.  If it's not a QB, is it Tyree Wilson over Will Anderson Jr.?  Do the Cards take Anderson Jr. or an OT to protect Kyler Murray?  Will the Colts pass on CJ Stroud in favor of Will Levis?  How far will Jalen Carter slide?  And just when will Bijan Robinson come off the board?

Plus, my full seven-round mock draft is available on my website at www.readyforthedraft.com.

Episode 31 takes the positional rankings to the LB position where there will be a discussion regarding whether we will see a LB taken in Round One.  Will it be Drew Sanders?  And can we count on Trenton Simpson, Jack Campbell and Daiyan Henley to also be off the board by the end of Round 2?  And which impact LB will be the steal of Day 3?

The latest episode dedicated to positional rankings takes us to the interior of the DL.  We know that Jalen Carter is the elite DT prospect in this draft and won't get out of the top 10 before being selected, but just how many DT's will come off the board in Round One?  Calijah Kancey feels like a lock, but what about Bryan Bresee and Mazi Smith.  And where will the DT depth show itself during the three days of the draft?

THe positional rankings now turn to the defensive side of the football and begin with the Edge rushers.  We know Will Anderson Jr. and Tyree Wilson are locks in the top 10, but where will fellow 1st Round contenders like Lukas Van Nes. Nolan Smith and Myles Murphy come off the board?  And then who from the second tier of edge rushers, among those Will McDonald IV, Felix Anudike-Uzomah, Keion White, Derick Hall, Isaiah Foskey, Adetomiwa Adebawore and BJ Ojulari, will be the first to hear their name called and will it be in Round One? 

Episode 28 is dedicated to breaking down draft projections for this year's OL class.  How many OT's can we see come off the board in Round One?  Of the top prospects, will Paris Johnson, Jr., Peter Skoronski, Broderick Jones or Darnell Wright come off the board first?  How early will O'Cyrus Torrence come off the board?  And just how many centers will be off the board by the end of Day 2?

The fourth installment of the positional rankings is all about the TE position where we have as many as eight prospects in this year's draft class who can be a starter early in their careers.  Teams that pass on Dalton Kincaid, Michael Mayer and Darnell Washingon can find talent on Days 2 and 3.

The third installment of the positional rankings focuses on the WR position where there isn't a clear-cut No. 1 wideout in this year's draft class.  Will it be the sudden and explosive Zay Flowers?  The beast in the slot that is Jaxon Smith-Njigba?  What about the rangy vertical threat Quentin Johnston?  Or the elite route runner Jordan Addison?  Not only do I discuss what could happen at the top of the draft, I also talk through who to watch for on Days 2 and 3 as well. 

Up next in the positional breakdown is at RB, where the focus on Day 1 will be on Bijan Robinson, who has a chance to be the first back taken in the top 10 since 2018.  But there's also a lot of depth on the second and third days of the draft as well, with Jahmyr Gibbs, Zach Charbonnet, Devon Achane, Tyjae Spears, Kenny McIntosh, Tank Bigsby and Zach Evans may all hear their names called before the end of the 3rd Round.

I begin the positional breakdown with th QB position.  CJ Stroud and Bryce Young are expected to come off the board with the first two picks in the draft and rightfully so, but what can we expect from Will Levis and Anthony Richardson?  Will Hendon Hooker be the only other QB taken in the first two days of the draft?  How many total will hear their name called during the draft?

 Episode 23 is the post-Combine edition of the Ready for the Draft Podcast as I talk about who really left an impression during the workout portion of the Combine in Indianapolis.  DJ Turner II posted the top 40 time, while Quan Martin raised eyebrows with his vertical leap and you can't forget about the show Anthony Richardson put on!  

I also take a peek at the top half of Round One following an active and entertaining free agency period.  

Episode 22 is the fifth and final installment of the pre-Combine edition as we'll focus on the two groups who traditionally kicked off the Combine on-field workouts but are closing the show this year - RB's and OL.

I discuss all 27 RB's and 50 OL and tak about what I'm looking for from each during their workout at the Combine.

Episode 21 is the fourth installment of the pre-Combine edition as we shift to the offensive side of the ball.  We get to see QB's, WR's and TE's take the stage.  I'll go through what to watch for from the 15 QB's, 50 WR's and 20 TE's competing this weekend at the Combine.

Over 300 draft prospects are taking the field in Indianapolis over the next four days.  Episode 20, the 3rd installment of the Combine preview series, is dedicated to the DB's as I will discuss what to expect from all 36 cornerbacks and 22 safeties who will be working out and testing on Friday.  

With the Combine taking place this week, Episode 19 will be the second episode of the Combine preview and will be dedicated to the 34 LB prospects taking the field on Thursday, March 2nd.  What can we expect from this group of linebackers and what will I be looking for from each prospect?

The Combine is approaching quickly and it's time to preview the Combine Invites by position group.  Episode 18 will be the first edition of the Combine preview and we'll start with the DL group as it's the first position group to take the field in Indy.  I'll take a look at each of the 50 DL prospects at the Combine and what I'm looking forward to seeing most when each of them take the field.

It's time for my first Mock Draft!  I've released my seven-round mock draft on readyforthedraft.com, but in thsi podcast, we'll take a look at the 1st Round.  What will the Bears do at No. 1?  Will they trade?  Do they stay put?  Who trades up to get a QB and which one will be drafted first?  Will Anderson and Jalen Carter are the top defensive players, but is there a chance either falls out of the top 5?  Not a chance!  I'll start talking through some of the potential scenarios teams will be facing this offseason and how the decisions will impact their focus at the top of the draft.

I take a look at how the underclassmen have impacted the 2023 NFL Draft class and also go through who stood out during the All-Star games.  I may even include the first 16 picks of my first Mock Draft!

It's been a minute since the last podcast, so that means lots to catch up on!  Episode 15 takes one last look at Bowl season as I talk through which draft-eligible prospects stood out in the 41 bowl games.

Stay tuned, in a couple of days I'll take a look how this year's crop of underclassmen impacts the 2023 draft class and will preview the all-star games.

I previewed the first 21 bowl games in Episode 13, so it's only fitting that the second installment of the Bowl Preview Series covers the final 20 bowl games.  I talk through what to expect from the draft eligible prospects, including who's opting out to prepare for the draft and what we can expect from those playing.  Expect a review of at least one draft-eligible prospect from each team to keep an eye on.  

The regular season has come to a close, which can only mean one thing - Bowl Season is here!  There are several players who have opted out of their bowl game to prepare for the NFL Draft.  I talk about who's in and who's out and discuss at least one draft-eligible prospect who IS playing in the bowl game.  I'll review the first 21 bowl games during this episode and will cover the remaining games in the second half of the bowl preview series.

 Conference Championship week is here and after this weekend we'll know who will be punching their ticket to the College Football Playoff.  Gregg takes a look at the matchups facing each of the top four teams in the CFP rankings.  Can Caleb Williams and Co. at USC avenge their only loss against Utah?  Expected 1st Round pick Jordan Addison will be healthy for this game and could be a difference maker.  Can the Trojan defense stop Dalton Kincaid this time around and will the opportunistic defense get to Cameron Rising and force turnovers?  TCU takes on Kansas State in the Big XII Championship after beating them 38-28 in October.  Max Duggan could solidfy his bid to be a Heisman finalist with a huge performance, but the Horned Frogs have to deal with the diminutive Deuce Vaughn, which is not a simple task.  Purdue is representing the Big 10 West and looks to be overmatched against Michigan.  Expect the Wolverines to lean on their dominant O-line.  And with the No. 1 Georgia Bulldogs, the one area of concern is the ability to slow down Jayden Daniels on the ground defensively and will Broderick Jones and Co. up frpnt be able to stop BJ Ojulari and Harold Perkins from wreaking havoc in the backfield and getting to Stetson Bennett?

I dedicate Episode 11 to the first two weeks of October.  Hendon Hooker has emerged as a top QB prospect for this year's draft.  His accuracy, decision making and athleticism are on display on a weekly basis, but it's his deep ball that's better than anyone in College Football.  Could he put pressure on Bryce Young, CJ Stroud and Will Levis?  While Jahmyr Gibbs and Bijan Robinson battle it out for the top RB spot, Blake Corum has forced his way into the conversation as a top back.  ANd at wideout, we've been waiting for Quentin Johnston to arrive in 2022 and his performance against Kansas appears to be his breakout game.  TE Dalton Kincaid gave us glimpses of what to expect.  and if you're looking outside the Power 5, UTSA has a paid of WRs we can expect to be drafted on Day 3.  Defensively, Will Anderson, Jr. is back to his usual self after a slow start to the season.  Edge rushers Myles Murphy, Byron Young, Tuli Tuipulotu, BJ Ojulari and Brenton Cox, Jr. have been standouts all season long. 

I wrap up Week 4 of the College Football season as we say goodbye to September and hello to conference play in October.  CJ Stroud has emerged as the No. 1 QB after his performance against Wisconsin, while Hendon Hooker is putting pressure on Bryce Young and Will Levis after showing at home against Florida.  On the ground, Blake Corum and Devin Achane introduced themselves to the national stage and firmly in the conversation as top-5 RBs.  Jordan Addison didn't have a single target in the 1st Half against Oregon State, but he emerged late in the game with a TD with less than 90 seconds to play as the Trojans survived in Corvallis.  Up front, Paris Johnson, Jr., Jarrett Patterson and O'Cyrus Torrence proved why they're at or near the top of OL rankings.    

Gregg put a wrap on Week 3 of the College football season.  Michael Penix Jr. and Bo Nix have the Pac-12 talking about their improved play, while Tyler Van Dyke has seen his draft stock take a hit in the ACC.  Jordan Addison looks to be the top WR prospect while Devon Achane, Zach Evans and Eric Gray put together impressive performances.  Defensively, BJ Ojulari is relentless, Isaiah Foskey, Tuli Tuipulotu and Garrett Williams are disruptive, but the player turning heads the most may be Texas Tech DE Tyree Wilson. 

 Week 2 of the College Football season was definitely a wild one as three teams in the top 10 went down.  Alabama narrowly missed being the fourth team thanks to timely play by reigning Heisman Trophy winner Bryce Young.  Jahmyr Gibbs and Bijan Robinson put on a pass-catching display in that game, leading me to declare that Gibbs, Robinson and Georgia's Kenny McIntosh are the top three receiving RB's in this year's draft class.  Will Anderson, Jr. struggled to make an impact until late, but one edge rusher soaring up draft board was Arkansas' Drew Sanders, who was a monster against South Carolina.  And last year's Biletnikoff Award winner Jordan Addison continues to prove why he's the most NFL-ready WR this year.

Week 1 of the 2022 College Football season is finally in the books with the first full slate of games spanning five days.  During that time, I watched 21 games to get a glimpse of the draft-eligible prospects.  I wanted to see how the National Champs would fare against Oregon, if Jalen Carter, Nolan Smith and Christopher Smith could take the reins of the defense and what Stetson Bennett, Kenny McIntosh and Darnell Washington could bring to the table.  How would CJ Stroud fare against the Fighting Irish and who would win the battle between Paris Johnson, Jr. and Isaiah Foskey?  Then there's Anthony Richardson.  I'm definitely on the hype train after a stellar performance versus Utah.  But Brenton Cox, Jr. and Ventrell Miller needed to come up big if the Gators wanted to beat the Utes.  How did that go?  Florida State is 2-0 after a wild win against LSU.  Learn the name Jared Verse, a spectacular transfer edge rusher from Albany.  So many games to cover, so many players to talk about, College Football is officially BACK!

Week 1 of the College Football season is finally here and it may be my favorite season next to draft season of course. With so many matchups over five days of action, I decided to divide my review into two podcast, dedicating Episode 6 to the games on Thursday and Friday.

But first, I recap Northwestern's upset win against Nebraska in Dublin, Ireland where Peter Skoronski put on a show and solidified himself as a top OT prospect with a chance at the top 10. I also talk about five other games I tuned in to see, including Illinois throttling Wyoming 38-6 while being led by RB Chase Brown and Vandy getting a much-needed jumpstart to their season with a 63-10 win over Hawaii with Mike Wright's athleticism under center and Anfernee Orji and Maxwell Worship leading the way defensively.

Thursday games to look at include Central Michigan heading to Stillwater against Oklahoma State, the ex-USC QB matchup of Pittsburgh's Kedon Slovis and West Virginia's JT Daniels in the Backyard Brawl, a B1G showdown with Penn State taking on Purdue and Mizzou hosting LA Tech.

On Friday, Michigan State hosts Western Michigan, Old Dominion and their talented skill position trio of Blake Watson, Ali Jennings and Zack Kuntz host Virginia Tech, Illinois looks to start the season 2-0 traveling to Bloomington to take on the Hoosiers and TCU is hoping to get the connection going early and often between Max Duggan and Quentin Johnston as they take on the Colorado Buffaloes.

College Football is BACK! LET'S GO!!!!

Week 0 of the college football season is here.  We have a number of games Saturday August 27th and Gregg breaks down some of the matchups and players to watch.  Northwestern's Peter Skoronski, a legitimate 1st Round candidate, will do battle against Nebraska's Ochaun Mathis and a quartet of LB's led by the fiery Garrett Nelson.  Bret Bielema will rely on a power run game at Illinois led by RB Chase Brown, who should have his way with a young Wyoming defense.  We get out first look at FSU OT Robert Scott, Jr. to see if he can emerge as a Day 2 OT.  Josh Downs is primed for another breakout season, but will be doing so without Sam Howell as UNC takes on Florida A&M.

Gregg also looks at the WR position and offers his top 10.  Who will be on top?  Will it be Jaxon Smith-Njigba, Kayshon Boutte or Jordan Addison?  Will Downs or Marvin Mims be this year's Jahan Dotson?  Which big WR will garner 1st Round consideration?  Will it be Quentin Johnston?  AT Perry?  Or how about Cedric Tillman?

This episode is dedicated to the RB position.  While we didn't see a RB taken in Round 1 of the 2022 draft, I expected Breece Hall to be off the board before the Jets picked in the 2nd Round.  Early results point to New York getting a steal at the top of Round 2.  That said, while there doesn't seem to be a question that Bijan Robinson will be a 1st Rounder, just how high will he come off the board?  And will an explosive back a la Travis Etienne from just a couple years ago hear his name called on Day One?  Could it be Jahmyr Gibbs?  Will Sean Tucker be next?  The next tier is filled with power backs that lack breakaway speed and speed backs who don't bring a power element to their game.  Who will rise to the top of that list?  And is Rasheen Ali the most overlooked back in this year's draft class? 

 With the college football season just three weeks away, it's time to take a positional look at the draft eligible prospects for the 2023 NFL Draft.  Episode dives into the top QB's to keep an eye on during the 2022 college football season.  We know that Heisman Trophy winner Bryce Young and Heisman finalist CJ Stroud are at the top of the list, but the big question is who will be the No. 3 QB?  Will Levis and Tyler Van Dyke seem to be like the likely candidates.  Devin Leary and Brennan Armstrong are under-the-radar QB's who are primed for big seasons in the ACC, while Phil Jurkovec is hoping to rebound after an injury-riddled 2021.  Anthony Richardson is an imposing athlete, but can he put it all together at QB?  And what can we expect from Kedon Slovis and Spencer Rattler at their new programs?

The countdown is on to the start of the 2022 College Football Season.  Last episode, we took a look at the top offensive prospects to be on the lookout for during the season.  This episode it's all about the defense.  We know about Will Anderson, Jr. and Jalen Carter up front, but we should expect the likes of Isaiah Foskey, Noah Sewell, Eli Ricks and Antonio Johnson to make some noise this year.  Will we finally see another prospect from Army to be taken in Round 1?  Andre Carter II has a great shot.  Can Nolan Smith step out of the shadows of the LB's who were drafted this past season?  Can Bryan Bresee and Tyler Davis return from injury to join Carter in the top half of Round 1?

We're less than a month away from the start of the college football season!  Are you ready???  Who are the offensive players to keep an eye on during the 2022 season?  Heisman Trophy winner Bryce Young and Heisman finalist CJ Stroud will battle it out to be the top QB, but who's favored to be the No. 3 QB?  Can Bijan Robinson crack the 1st Round and can Jahmyr Gibbs, Zach Evans, Sean Tucker, Tank Bigsby or Devon Achane join him?  Who's the top WR in this class - Jaxon Smith Njigba, Kayshon Boutte or Jordan Addison?  Is Michael Mayer a 1st Rounder?  Will Paris Johnson, Jr. emerge as the top OT prospect and can USC's Andrew Vorhees follow in Alaijah Vera-Tucker's footsteps into Day One consideration?

Episode 31 marks the second of the three-part post-draft edition.  Gregg plans to look at each draft pick made by all 32 teams and will discuss the fit.  He'll also give a final position-by-position look at the draft results, which will include a look at undrafted free agents who have a chance at making an NFL roster.  Finally, Gregg will take a very-early look at the 2023 NFL draft by touching on the players to watch during the 2022 college football season at each position.

In Episode 31, Gregg takes a look at the draft haul of the final 16 treams not discussed in the previous episode.  The conversation begins with the Kansas City Chiefs and ends with the Washington Commanders.

Episode 30 marks the first of the three-part post-draft edition.  Gregg plans to look at each draft pick made by all 32 teams and will discuss the fit.  He'll also give a final position-by-position look at the draft results, which will include a look at undrafted free agents who have a chance at making an NFL roster.  Finally, Gregg will take a very-early look at the 2023 NFL draft by touching on the players to watch during the 2022 college football season at each position.

In Episode 30, Gregg takes a look at the draft haul of 16 teams.  He'll first talk about his favorite drafts, namely those conducted by Baltimore and the New York Jets.  From there, he'll work through the remaining francises alphabetically, starting with the Arizona Cardinals and ending with the Jacksonville Jaguars. 

Round One of the NFL Draft was as exciting as advertised!  The Jags take Travon Walker at the top of the draft, followed by Aidan Hutchinson to the Lions, Derek Stingley, Jr. to the Texans, Sauce Gardner to the Jets and Kayvon Thibodeaux to the Giants to mark the first time we've seen five defensive players off the board to begin the draft.  Nine trades in all in Round One, including AJ Brown and Marquise Brown changing their address.  Who were the biggest winners?  Any head scratchers?  And what can we expect for Day 2 of the draft?  Gregg has it all covered!

The wait is over!  The NFL Draft kicks off tonight with Round One Primetime in Las Vegas. We are literally hours before the start of the draft and Gregg put together a final podcast that recaps not only his 1st Round mock draft, but he also discusses potential scenarios and projections.  Where does Jermaine Johnson II come off the board?  Is Derek Stingley or Ahmad "Sauce" Gadner the No. 1 CB?  When does the run on WR's start?  Will the Giants select Evan Neal or Charles Cross at No. 5?  Will a QB be drafted in the top 20?  And what happens if Deebo Samuel or Baker Mayfield is traded on draft night?  Gregg has an answer for each.

Gregg wraps up his positional breakdown with the secondary, covering both the cornerbacks and safeties and breaks down where he sees the prospects being the best fit at the next level and where they will be coming off the board.  Both draft classes are deep, but the top of the class at their respective positions are Ahmad Gardner and Kyle Hamilton.  However, we can expect four CB's and as many as three safeites off the board in Round 1.  Who's going to be the 5th CB?  Just how many safeties are coming off the board in Round 2?  And who will be the sleeper Day 3 selections?  

Gregg also looks at the specialists as he sees three punters and a kicker coming off the board on Day 3 of the draft.

The NFL Draft is around the corner, so it's time for a positional analysis with six podcasts in six days.  Episode 26 takes a look at the LB position as Gregg breaks down each day of the draft and where each prospect is expected to come off the board.  Devin Lloyd appears to be the first LB off the board, but will Nakobe Dean be a 1st Round pick?  Will we see three Georgia LB's taken in the first two days of the draft?  Keep an eye out for Troy Andersen, the most versatile player in this draft!  Lots of depth in this year's LB class on Day 2. 

The NFL Draft is around the corner, so it's time for a positional analysis with six podcasts in six days.  Episode 25 takes a look at the edge rushers and DL as Gregg breaks down each day of the draft and where each prospect is expected to come off the board.  Aidan Hutchinson is seen as the No. 1 overall pick in the draft, but how many total edge rushers come off the board in Round One?  And this may not be a deep DT class, but Day 2 seems to have good value at the position.

The NFL Draft is next week, so it's time for a positional analysis with six podcasts in six days.  Episode 24 takes a look at the OL as Gregg breaks down each day of the draft and where each prospect is expected to come off the board.  Will the first OT off the board be Evan Neal, Ikem Ekwonu or Charles Cross and how many will be selected in the first five picks?  Tevor Penning is likely the 4th OT to be selected, but who's next after him?  At OG, how high will Zion Johnson and Kenyon Green come off the board?  And at OC, will Tyler Linderbaum be a top-20 pick?

The NFL Draft is next week, so it's time for a positional analysis with six podcasts in six days.  Episode 23 takes a look at the WR's and TE's as Gregg breaks down each day of the draft and where each prospect is expected to come off the board.  Will Drake London or Garrett Wilson be taken in the top 10?  How high will Jameson Williams rise up draft boards? How many WR's will be off the board in Round One?  Can we expect more than 30 WR's taken in this year's draft?  And at TE, Trey McBride is likely the first TE off the board, but when and where will that be?  The TE class is deep and the sweet spot is in the 3rd-5th Round range.  Just how many TE's will be selected this year?

The NFL Draft is next week, so it's time for a positional analysis with six podcasts in six days.  Episode 22 takes a look at the QB's and RB's as Gregg breaks down each day of the draft and where each prospect is expected to come off the board.  Malik Willis and Kenny Pickett are the top two QB's expected off the board first, but will we see any other QB's in Round One?  Where will Matt Corral, Desmond Ridder and Sam Howell go?  And at RB, can Breece Hall crack the 1st Round?  And who will be the 4th RB off the board after Hall, Kenneth Walker III and Isaiah Spiller?

Episode 21 is the second of a two-part series where Gregg introduces his Three-Round Mock Draft.   begins a two-part series as Gregg introduces his Three Round Mock Draft.  Will Green Bay finally draft its first WR in Round One since 2002?  Can we expect KC to replace Tyreek Hill at No. 29? Which QB's will come off the board in the back half of Round One?

Episode 20 begins a two-part series as Gregg introduces his Three Round Mock Draft.  Who's going to be the No. 1 pick?  How about the top QB drafted?  What does Philly's trade with New Orleans mean for the Saints?  How does it impact the Chargers?  

Free agency is in full swing and episode 19 takes a look at how free agency is impacting the draft for teams in the NFC.  Will Green Bay go WR in Round 1 after trading Davante Adams to Vegas?  Are Seattle and Atlanta considering QB's early in the draft?  Has free agency impacted the direction the Giants will go with two picks in Round 1?

Now that the Combine is in the rear-view mirror, it's all about free agency in the NFL!  Episode 18 focuses on how the start of free agency has shaped rosters in the AFC as well as the potential impact on the draft.  Stay tuned for Episode 19 when the focus turns to the NFC.

It's time to recap the NFL Scouting Combine held last week.  Desmond Ridder, Chris Olave and Greg Dulcich all helped themselves on Day One of the Combine, while Ickey Ekwonu, Charles Cross, Trevor Penning and Breece Hall stood out on Day Two.  Defensively, it was all about the Georgia linemen on Day Three, with Travon Walker, Jordan Davis and Devonte Wyatt showing off impressive explosiveness, while Sauce Gardner and Kyle Hamilton solidified their draft status on Day Four.  Gregg looks at all the winners and losers at the Combine.

It's the Combine Preview eposide!  It's time to take a look at what to look for at next week's Combine.  Gregg sits down this week with is Joe Delone, host of the @nflprospectspod and Bleave in FCS Football podcasts on the @Bleav Podcast Network, to chat about what to expect at the Combine.  

The Ready for the Draft podcast is back after a hiatus following the passing of Gregg's mom Nancy.  Gregg dedicates his podcast series going forward to his mother.  Then Gregg reveals his first mock 1st Round of the 2022 draft.  Do the Jags go after a pass rusher like Aidan Hutchinson or Kayvon Thibodeaux or an OT like Evan Neal?  Is Kyle Hamilton a top-five pick?  How many QB's come off the board in Round 1?  Gregg breaks down his thoughts on the 1st Round.

Episode 14 is the second installment of the Bowl Preview series and Gregg takes a look at the remaining 22 bowl games that begin on December 28th and calls out the draft-eligible prospects who have not opted out and will be playing in the bowl games.  Gregg also looks at the CFP matchups and the prospects to watch.  He especially likes the matchup of Bama's Jameson Williams and Cincinnati's Ahmad "Sauce" Gardner on the outside.

The college football regular season is over, which can mean only one thing - It's Bowl Season!!!  Episode 13 is the first of two podcasts dedicated to the Bowl games.  There are 44 bowl games in all and there's at least one draft-eligible prospect in each game.  Over the next two podcasts, Gregg takes a look at every Bowl game, reviews the matchup and calls out the propsects to watch for.  In this epside, Gregg breaks down the first 17 bowl games, from Toledo vs. Middle Tennessee in the Bahamas Bowl on December 17th to the Military Bowl featuring Houston and East Carolina on December 27th.

After a brief hiatus, Gregg is back to bring his NFL Draft content.  As the month of November comes to a close, there is plenty to talk about, from Michigan finally taking down their rival Ohio State at The Big House to Lincoln Riley and Brian Kelly moving on.  And then of course there's the draft.  Gregg walks through each position and talks about who to expect to be the top prospects at each position and where to expect them to come off the board. From Kayvon Thibodeaux and Aidan Hutchinson to Matt Corral, Garrett Wilson, Evan Neal and Ikem Ekwonu, there's no shortage of players to be considered for the top two rounds of the draft.

We've seen some breakout performers in 2022 and Episode 11 is dedicated to talking about just a few who have emerged in 2022.  Any conversation about players with soaring draft stock has to begin with Kenneth Walker III, who may now be the Heisman frontrunner after his 5 TD performance in a 37-33 win over Michigan.  Kenny Pickett has proved his decision to return to Pittsburgh was a smart one, elevating his play to a level that brings him into consideration among the top QB's in this year's draft class.  At WR, Drake London was always seen as a top-10 wideout, but what he has done in 2021, even after the devastating ankle fracture this past weekend that ended his season, has him knocking on the door as a top WR target.  At OT, Bernhard Raimann may have been a foreign exchange student from Austria in high school, but his athleticism coupled with his technique have him squarely in the conversation as a top OT prospect.  Defensively, everyone knew Jordan Davis was special at NT, but the burst, lateral quickness and motor have him knocking on the door of the top 10.  Nakobe Dean has emerged as the draft's top inside backer, while Jaquan Brisker is the top safety not named Kyle Hamilton.  And while there's a lot of talk around Ahmad "Sauce" Gardner at Cincinnati, don't sleep on Coby Bryant at corner.

The weekend of October 9th will go down as maybe the most exciting weekend of College Football in 2021.  Mississippi fends off Arkansas when the Hogs fail to execute a two-point conversion with no time remaining.  Iowa fights back to beat Penn State riding high with an opportunistic defense.  DOWN GOES BAMA!  Texas A&M was able to match the Crimson Tide's physicality and Jimbo Fisher became the first former Nick Saban assistant to win against their forner boss.  And how about the wild Red River Shootout, where Texas goes up 28-7 in the 1st quarter before freshman Caleb Williams is inserted into the mix, igniting life into the Sooner offense.  Gregg takes a look at all the draft prospects in these matchups.  The biggest question is what's up with Spencer Rattler?  Gregg explores what this game means for Rattler's future.

Episode 9 is the last installment of Gregg's early season look at his top 10 lists by position as he reviews the secondary.  Derek Stingley is at the top of the CB list, but who will b the next corner off the board?  Ahmad "Sauce" Gardner?  Kaiir Elam?  Andrew Booth, Jr.?  And at Safety, Kyle Hamilton looks to be a lock in the top 10, but the position is deep at the top with Jaquan Brisker, Verone McKinley III, Daxton Hill and Brandon Joseph likely to hear their names called early in the 2022 Draft.

Gregg also talks about what the top five picks might look like.  Evan Neal and Kayvon Thibodeaux feel like locks, while Derek Stingley coiuld be the first CB since Jeffrey Okudah to come off the board in the top 5 and Kyle Hamilton could be the top Safety to come off the board since Jamal Adams went No. 6 in 2017.  However, we all know the QB position will likely dominate the talks at the top of the draft, yet with this underwhelming draft class, will we even see a QB come off the board in the top 10?  Spencer Rattler and Sam Howell are having their struggles this year, so Malik Willis, Matt Corral and Desmond Ridder are moving up draft boards.  

Gregg kicks off Episode 8 by using the first 20 minutes to recap the first three weeks of the college football season.  He then dives into his top 10 for both outside and inside linebackers.  Starting outside, who will emerge in the group that includes Drake Jackson, Adam Anderson, Amare Barno and Kingsley Enagbare. And on the inside, can the likes of Nakobe Dean, Mke Rose, Devin Lloyd or Owen Pappoe close the gap on Christian Harris? 

Episode 7 dives into the trenches on the defensive side of the ball and takes a look at Gregg's top ten along the DL.  At DE, Kayvon Thibodeaux is far and away the top prospect as an edge rusher.  The question that still needs to be answered is who's at No. 2 between George Karlaftis and Aidan Hutchinson.  And at DT, a pair from the SEC in DeMarvin Leal and Jordan Davis stand out in a group that looks to be deeper than 2021.

Episode 6 focuses on Gregg's picks at the offensive line.  At the OT position, we know Evan Neal, the mammoth OT at Alabama, is the clear-cut No. 1 prospect in the draft class, but who is No. 2?  Is it Sean Rhyan?  Charles Cross?  Laxson Kirkland?  Rasheed Walker?  Where does Zion Nelson fit into the mix?  At OG, Kenyon Green, Ikem Ekwonu, Darian Kinnard and Zion Johnson will all be playing OT this season, but they project best inside.  And at the pivot, Tyler Linderbaum is expected to be the first center off the board, but will he be a 1st Rounder?  And how high will Neal and Green come off the board? 

Episode 5 is the fourth installment of the preseason edition where Gregg previews the TE position.  While this draft class doesn't have the firepower at the top like Kyle Pitts, there is depth at the position with plenty of potential playmakers.  Will it be Jalen Wydermyer or Jahleel Billingsley at the top of the class?  Will either be a 1st Round pick?  And who's next off the board?  Will it be Trey McBridge, Cade Otton, Charlie Kolar, Greg Dulcich, Austin Stogner, or will another prospect emerge?

Episode 4 is the third installment of the preseason edition where Gregg previews the WR position and offers his top 10 wideouts going into the season.  We've seen teammates at the top of Round One in each of the last two drafts, but both of those duos, Henry Ruggs III and Jerry Jeudy in 2020 and Jaylen Waddle and Devonta Smith in 2021, were from Alabama.  Could we see a duo from Ohio State make waves at the top of this year's draft class?  Some of the top wideouts in recent drafts have come off the board on Day 2.  Who could be next?

Episode 3 is the second installment of the preseason edition where Gregg previews his top 10 at each position and features the RB position.  In April, we saw Najee Harris and Travis Etienne were back-to-back picks in the 1st Round.  Will this crop of RB's produce a 1st Rounder?  Breece Hall finished 6th in the Heisman voting last year.  Can he build upon that performance?  Isaiah Spiller and Ainias Smith are dynamic, but will sharing the backfield impact their stock?  Who will emerge as the top prospect from the group that includes Zamir White, Kyren Williams, Kevin Harris, Tyler Goodson, Mohamed Ibrahim, CJ Verdell, Jerrion Ealy and Rachaad White?   And how much noise can Group of 5 backs like Sincere McCormick and Xazavian Valladay make on the national scene?

The college football season is right around the corner, so it's time for Gregg's preseason breakdown of each position where he takes a look at the top players, offers up his top ten rankings as well as some other names to be aware of as the season begins.

Episode 2 begins with the QB position, where Spencer Rattler and Sam Howell are widely considered the top two QB's in this draft.  But who will be the next 2-3 QB's off the board?  Carson Strong?  Malik Willis?  Matt Corral?  Where do four-year starter Desmond Ridder and USC transfer JT Daniels fit into the mix?  And which Kedon Slovis will we see in 2021?

Episode 1 of the 2022 Podcast Series puts a bow on the 2021 NFL Draft with the introduction of Schutze's Spotlight, Gregg's "All-Schutze Team" that is comprised of his favorite players at each position that he is expecting to make an impact at the next level.  Expect rookies selected during all three days of the draft along with a few UDFA's sprinkled in that Gregg expects to see action.

Going forward, Gregg will break down each position to give you names to be acquainted with prior to the start of the College Football season.  The QB position will be up first on Episode 2 in a couple of days.

Through the years, from John Randle to London Fletcher to Wayne Chrebet and Wes Welker, the league has been impacted by players who went undrafted.  Just a season ago James Robinson, who finished with over 4,000 career rushing yards while at Illinois State, went on to be Jacksonville's unquestioned starting RB after going undrafted in the 2020 draft.

In the  third installment of the post-draft edition of the Ready for the Draft podcast.  Gregg takes a look at the undrafted free agents for all 32 teams and gives his thoughts on which UDFA's have a shot to make a roster.

Gregg also reviews his "By the Numbers" segment where he tried to predict the number of players drafted in each round by position based on the historical data of the last five drafts.  Do the numbers help predict the outcome?  Gregg also took it a step further and tried to plug players in each round as well.

Episode 37 is the second installment of the post-draft edition of the Ready for the Draft podcast.  Gregg takes a look at the AFC and NFC North and West divisions and gives his take on each of the draft picks.

Episode 36 is the first installment of the post-draft edition of the Ready for the Draft podcast.  Gregg takes a look at the AFC and NFC East and South divisions and gives his take on each of the draft picks.

Stay tuned for Episode 27 when Gregg breaks down the picks for the AFC and NFC North and West.

Gregg breaks down his final 1st Round Mock Draft. We know Trevor Lawrence and Zach Wilson are going No. 1 and No. 2, but will it be Mac Jones or Trey Lance No. 3 to the Niners?  Is Kyle Pitts a Falcon?  Will the Bengals give Joe Burrow a weapon like Ja'Marr Chase or someone to protect him in Penei Sewell?  And will Bill Belichick look to trade up to get his QB of the future?

Gregg also plays "NFL Draft - By the Numbers" where he attempts to predict not only how many players at each position will come off the board in each round using historical data from the last five drafts, but will also attempt to predict the names of the players coming off the board in each round.  No teams involved....just playing by the numbers.

This is the second of four podcast released each day leading up to Draft Day.  Recorded on Monday April 26th, Gregg tackles the team needs and draft selections for the AFC and NFC East and South.  Stay tuned for tomorrow's podcast where Gregg tackles the AFC and NFC North and West. 

Episode 32 takes a look at the secondary as Gregg breaks down the CB and Safety prospects.  Who is the top CB prospect - Patrick Surtain II?  Caleb Farley?  Jaycee Horn?  Where does Greg Newsome II fit in the conversation?  And who tops the second group of corners that includes Eric Stokes, Kelvin Joseph, Ifeatu Melifonwu, Tyson Campbell, Asante Samuel, Jr., Aaron Robinson, Elijah Molden and Rodarius Williams?  After not seeing a Safety drafted in Round 1 in last year's draft, will Trevon Moehrig be the safety to hear his name called on Thursday?  And where will Richie Grant, Jevon Holland and Andre Cisco come off the board on Day 2?  And then there's Jamar Johnson, Tyree Gillespie, James Wiggins, Divine Deablo, Caden Sterns, Darrick Forrest and Damar Hamlin who all have a chance to come off the board by the end of Round 5.

This is also the first of four straight episodes being released the week of the draft leading up to Draft day on Thursday night.  Stay tuned for two straight days of taking a look at the team needs for all 32 franchises as well as Gregg's final mock 1st Round and a final "By the Numbers" segment.  

Episode 31 takes a look at the LB position, a position that has some depth for all three days of the draft.  Just how many LB's will go in Round One?  Micah Parsons, Azeez Ojulari, Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah, Jamin Davis and Zaven Collins should hear their names called on April 29.  What can we expect from Nick Bolton, Baron Browning and Jabril Cox?  Gregg also looks at sleepers at the LB position, including Purdue's Derrick Barnes.

After a quick rundown of his latest 1st Round Mock, Gregg takes a look at the DT position, where Christian Barmore may be the only interior D-lineman taken in Round 1.  Gregg notes the depth of this year's draft class is really in the middle rounds, which is why guys like Levi Onwuzurike, Daviyon Nixon and Milton Williams may come off the board even sooner than expected on Day 2.  From Darius Stills and Jay Tufele to Jaylen Twyman and Bobby Brown III, Gregg takes a look at the DT's he's expecting to see come off the board during all three days of the draft.

In Episode 29, Gregg takes a look at the DE draft class.  While there isn't an elite prospect at the top of the draft like Myles Garrett or Chase Young, there are quite a few intriguing prospects on all three days of the draft.  There are complete DE's like Kwity Paye and Jaelan Phlllips, one-year wonders like Gregory Rousseau, an impressive group of second-tier edge rushers in Joseph Ossai, Boogie Basham, Ronnie Perkins and Joe Tryon and Day 3 guys like Cameron Sample and Jonathon Cooper who should be fun to watch.  

Episode 28 provides the fourth installment of "From a Fan's Perspective," a new segment where Gregg sits down with a fan to discuss their teams, both at the collegiate level and in the NFL, as it pertains to the draft.

This week, Gregg sits down with Brian Shaw, a Clemson alum who was on campus for the birth of the Dabo Swinney era in Clemson, SC.  Gregg and Brian talk about what makes Trevor Lawrence so special, whether Travis Etienne is a 1st Round pick and what to expect from Amari Rodgers, Cornell Powell and Jackson Carman.  Brian also breaks down the future of Clemson football into 2021 and beyond.

Right off the bat, Gregg discusses the biggest move of the 2021 draft season to date - The Niners with the Dolphins from No. 12 to No. 3 in a move that allows John Lynch and Kyle Shanahan to target a franchise QB, likely either Trey Lance or Mac Jones.  Then Miami trades back into the top 10 dealing with Philly to land the No. 6 pick.  There's a great chance all of the top offensive weapons - Ja'Marr Chase, DeVonta Smith and Kyle Pitts - will be available.

From there, Gregg focuses on a deep O-line class.  At the OT position, Penei Sewell, Rashawn Slater and Christian Darrisaw are locks in Round One, but who else will join them?  The second tier of Teven Jenkins, Jalen Mayfield, Liam Eichenberg, Dillon Radunz and Alex Leatherwood will all have a chance.  At the OG position, there's no question Alaijah Vera-Tucker is a 1st Round pick, the only question is how high will he go?  Wyatt Davis and Trey Smith should hear their names called early.  Then there's D3 prospect Quinn Meinerz, who is now firmly in position to be a Day 2 pick.  And at the center position, will Creed Humphrey be a 1st Round pick, either to Pittsburgh or Green Bay?  Can we count on Josh Myers and the oft-injured Landon Dickerson to be Day 2 selections? 

Episode 26 provides the third installment of "From a Fan's Perspective," a new segment where Gregg sits down with a fan to discuss their teams, both at the collegiate level and in the NFL, as it pertains to the draft.

Gregg sits down with Geoff Paez, a longtime fan of the Miami Dolphins, and discuss the current state of the Dolphins and how fans are excited and optimistic going into 2021 and beyond.  They look back on the 2020 draft as well as free agency this offseason and how they impact this year's draft.  The No. 3 pick willbe used ona  WR, but is Geoff on Team Ja'Marr or on Team DeVonta?  And where do the Fins go with the 18th pick?  An OT?  A RB?  An edge ruher?  With 5 picks in the first two days of the draft, Miami can do a lot to improve its roster.

Episode 25 is dedicated to the wide receiver position.  Gregg takes a look at 40 of the draft-eligible receivers and offers his thoughts on the prospects and where he thinks they may go in the draft.  Who's the top WR?  Are you Team Ja'Marr or Team DeVonta?  Where does Jaylen Waddle fit in the mix?  Rashod Bateman, Kadarius Toney and Terrace Marshall, Jr. are in the next tier, but do any of them come off the board in Round One or do they fall to Day 2 of the draft?  Who are the receivers coming off the board on Day 3 to take notice of and who's flying under the radar?

Episode 24 provides the second installment of "From a Fan's Perspective," a new segment where Gregg sits down with a fan to discuss their teams, both at the collegiate level and in the NFL, as it pertains to the draft.

Gregg and Tampa Bay Buccaneers super fan Steve Jackson talk about ths year's offseason for the defending Super Bowl Champs.  Now that Chris Godwin and Lavonte David are under contract for 2021 and we anticipate Shaq Barrett's contract is coming, what's next?  And how will Jason Licht, Bruce Arians and Co. approach this year's draft?

Episode 23 is all about the Running Backs as Gregg takes a look at his top RB's in this year's draft.  Najee Harris is the clear-cut No. 1 RB, but who are the Day 2 backs to watch out for?  Travis Etienne, Javonte Williams, Michael Carter, Javian Hawkins, Kenneth Gainwell all come to mind.  Day 3 will see the likes of Trey Sermon, Rhamondre Stevenson, Khalil Herbert, Kylin Hill, Jaret Patterson and Chuba Hubbard.  And who's going to be this year's James Robinson?

Episode 22 introduces "From a Fan's Perspective," a new segment where Gregg sits down with a fan to discuss their teams, both at the collegiate level and in the NFL, as it pertains to the draft.

Gregg talks with Brett Peters (@kookykukaburra on Twitter and Twitch) a big fan of Oklahoma State and the Houston Texans.  They break down Chuba Hubbard, Tylan Wallace, Teven Jenkins and Rodarius Williams and also take a look at the status of the Texans and what to expect this offseason.

In episode 21, Gregg looks at his Quarterback rankings.  Trevor Lawrence is the consensus No.1 overall pick, but who's No. 2?  A case can be made for Justin Fields, Trey Lance and Zach Wilson.  Mac Jones is likely to be a 1st Round pick, but will he go top 10?  Where will Kyle Trask come off the board?  Who's this year's sleeper?  Is it Davis Mills?  Kellen Mond?  And how many QB's will come off the board this year?

Gregg also reviews his latest mock 1st Round in advance of releasing his 4 round mock on readyforthedraft.com.

Episode 20 picks up right where we left off from last episode by taking a look at Gregg's three round mock draft starting with the Raiders at No. 17 and make it through the remaining teams, including the Rams, Seahawks and Texans who do not have a 1st Round selection.  

Over the last two Episodes, 3 Rounds and 106 picks discussed.

In episode 19, Gregg takes us on a journey through the teams holding the draft's first 16 picks and breaks down their moves during the first two days of the draft.

Stay tuned as Gregg will break down the remaining teams on episode 20 in just a few days.....

Episode 18 first takes a look at Senior Bowl and whose draft stock improve and who has work to do following the week in Mobile, Alabama.  Then Gregg breaks down the first 20 picks of his first Mock Draft.  From Jacksonville taking Trevor to Chicago selecting Jaylen Waddle, Gregg discusses the players and the fit for each selection. 

Episode 17 takes a look at the NFL Draft by the numbers.  Using the last five years of the draft as a guide, Gregg not only attempts to predict the number of players drafted at each position on the defensive side of the ball, but also the number of players in each round.  Let the Numbers Game begin!  

Alabama won the CFP National Championship and the declarations have been announced, which means the pre-draft process is now in full swing.  Episode 16 takes a different look at the 2021 draft class on the offensive side of the ball.  We know that we'll have four QB's taken in Round 1 - Trevor Lawrence, Zach Wilson, Trey Lance and Justin Fields.  But how many QB's can we expect to be drafted?  Looking at a five-year average, we'd expect 13 QB's to be drafted.  So who are they and when will they come off the board?  Did you know that 37 WR's were drafted in last year's draft, the highest total since 2003 when Charles Rogers, Andre Johnson and Anquan Boldin came off the board?  Looking at the WR class, you can make an argument we'll see that total again.  Using just the numbers and averages, Gregg looks at where 140 offensive prospects might land on Draft Day.

Episode 15 is the post-bowl edition as Gregg takes a look at the final 16 bowl games, from the Cheez-It Bowl to the Orange Bowl, Gregg has it covered!  Gregg also takes a look at matchups to watch in the CFP National Championship.

The Ready for the Draft Podcast is back from a Holiday break to take a look at how prospects fared in the conference championships and bowl games through the holiday weekend.  Gregg also takes a look at the remaining bowl schedule from Tuesday December 29th through Saturday January 2nd.   

The Ready for the Draft Podcast is back to cover Weeks 14 and15 of the college football season. In episode 13, Gregg looks at some late Day 2 and Day 3 prospects who caught his eye during the last two weeks of the regular season.  CJ Marable turned heads against Louisiana, while Amon-Ra St. Brown solidified his status as a Day 2 wideout with 4 1st quarter TD's against Washington State, while the Aggie duo of Carson Green and Ryan McCollum give A&M two OL guaranteed to hear their names called early on Day 3.  Defensively, don't sleep on Demetrius Taylor at DE and can we give some love to Ronnie Perkins coming off the edge?  Bobby Brown III and Haskel Garett are Power Five prospects, but keep an eye out for Group of Five DT's Tayland Humphrey and Jaxon Player.  At LB, Pete Werner and Baron Browning's versatility should solidify their Day 2 status, while the versatility of Antjuan Simmons and Tony Fields II will get them off the board on Day 3.  Divine Deablo's size, range and versatiity make him a player to watch at Safety.  Gregg also gets the chance to talk Talanoa Hufanga up as a top-five safety in this draft and it wouldn't be a Ready for the Draft Podcast wthout Gregg talking about his favorite player in college football - Zaven Collins.

After taking a holiday break, The Ready for the Draft podcast is back!  Gregg discusses how Weeks 12 and 13 of the College Football season are shaping his top 10 lists by position.  We know Trevor Lawrence, Justin Fields, Zach Wilson and Trey Lance are the top four QB's, but will it be Kyle Trask or Mac Jones off the board next at QB?  Is Najee Harris the top back or is it Travis Etienne?  And is any RB's stock rising more than Jermar Johnson?  Kyle Pitts is back to his dominant self.  Can he be a top-10 pick?  Is Liam Eichenberg OT3 behind Penei Sewell, Samuel Cosmi and Christian Darrisaw?  Defensively, Joseph Ossai, Jeremiah Owusu-Koraomoah and Zaven Collins are creating 1st Round buzz, but take notice of DE's Patrick Jones II and Ade Ogundeji, DT Marlon Tuipulotu, LB teammates Baron Browning and Pete Werner, CB's Rodarius Williams and Elijah Molden and S Damar Hamlin.

Week 11 of the College Football season is in the books and Gregg takes a look at the draft-eligible prospects standing out.  Kyle Trask is narrowing the gap toward the top of the QB class while Christian Darrisaw is asserting himself as a legitimate contender for the No. 2 OT in the draft.  And is there a defensive prospect who has helped himself more in 2020 than Zaven Collins????  Gregg also looks at some under-the-radar propsects, from Ty Fryfogle and Ben Skowronek to Marlon Tuipulotu and Osa Odighizuwa, who are moving up draft boards.  

Week 10 of the College Football season is in the books and we saw Clemson go down at the hands of Notre Dame, Florida emerge as an SEC power as well as the start of the Pac-12 and MAC seasons.  Gregg takes a look at some of the featured games from Week 10 and focuses on players flying under the radar and Day 3 gems.  Liam Eichenberg is on everyone's radar, but he's not getting the hype he deserves, while Teven Jenkins is flying under the radar as an OT worth considering on Day 2 of the draft, while Carson Green continues to impress as a mid-Day 3 option at RT.  Rhamondre Stevenson is back from suspension and has changed the whole complexion of the OU offense while Caleb Huntley just might be a late Day 3 or UDFA gem at RB.  Defensively, Wyatt Hubert is quietly having a huge year at edge rusher while Bobby Brown III is showing he can generate a push along the interior of the D-line and Ball State's Christian Albright is showing he can get to the passer off the edge, improving his stock as a Day 3 OLB.

Week 9 of the College Football season is in the books and Gregg takes a look at everything from Justin Fields' latest dominant performance to Joseph Ossai taking over the game against Oklahoma State.  Gregg also looks to answer these questions and more - Are Zach Wilson and Mac Jones closing the gap on the Big Three at QB?  Where is Phil Jurkovec in the QB conversation?  Is Najee Harris or Travis Etienne the top RB in the draft?  Where is Devonta Smith's draft projection?  Should Teven Jenkins be receiving 1st Round consideration?  

Episode 8 focuses on Week 8 of the College Football season, which marks the opening week of Big 10 play.  Gregg will cover everything from how Justin Fields solidified his status as the draft's No. 2 QB in the Buckeyes' convincing win over Nebraska to Michigan DE's Kwity Paye and Aidan Hutchinson dominant performance applying constant pressure on Minnesota QB Tanner Morgan.  And what effect will Jaylen Waddle's season-ending injury have on his draft stock?

Part 2 of Episode 7 focuses on Weeks 6 and 7 of the College Football season. Trevor Lawrence made an emphatic statement as the expected No. 1 overall pick in the 2021 draft, while it may be Zach Wilson and not Kyle Trask who is the No. 4 QB in the draft behind Lawrence, Trey Lance and Justin Fields.  The gap between Travis Etienne and Najee Harris at the top of the RB class is becoming narrow thin.  Jaylen Waddle is also closing on Ja'Marr Chase for the top WR spot, while there isn't much dropoff to Devonta Smith, who may be the smoothest draft-eligible WR.  Notre Dame OL Liam Eichenberg, Aaron Banks and Jarrett Patterson continue to see their draft stock rise.  Defensively, Jaycee Horn is making a compelling case to be the No. 1 CB, while Monty Rice and Joseph Ossai have improved their draft stock and it may be Christian Barmore and not Marvin Wilson who is the top DT.

Part 1 of Episode 7 is dedicated to the top FCS and lower level prospects for this year's draft.  In 2020, just nine non-FBS level players were drafted and just Kyle Dugger and Jeremy Chinn heard their names called during the first two days of the draft.  We have three offensive prospects who could hear their names called in the first three rounds this year, with Trey Lance and NDSU teammate Dillon Radunz expecting to come off the board in the 1st Round.  

Stay tuned for Part 2 of Episode 7 where Gregg looks back at Weeks 6 and 7 of the College Football season.

Week 5 of the college football season was a wild one, especially in the Big XII, Florida's Kyle Connection was at it again, while KJ Costello struggled against zone coverage.  And Tulsa knocked off UCF behind the arm of a pro prospect at QB in Zach Smith and a defense led by Zaven Collins.  Georgia dominated Auburn defensively with Tyson Campbell locking up Seth Williams on the outside.  And then BYU continues to impress, led Zach Wilson, who finished with a near-perfect performance against Louisiana Tech,

Gregg also looks at players to watch when the Mountain West and MAC take the field in the coming weeks.

In Episode 5, Gregg breaks down the key performances from Week 4 of the College Football season.  Kyle Trask emerged as a serious contender to be the No. 4 QB in the draft, while Kyle Pitts made his case as the top TE in the country.  KJ Costello had a record-setting SEC debut running Mike Leach's offense and Sam Ehlinger brought the Longhorns back inan OT win over Texas Tech, while Najee Harris and Jaylen Waddle combined for 4 TD in an impressive victory at Mizzou.  Defensively, Dylan Moses returned to the field to lead the Tide, while Jaelan Phillips, Rodarius Williams, Jabari Cox and JaQuan Bailey all turned heads.  

Gregg also takes a look at the draft-eligible players to watch when the Pac-12 returns to the field on November 6th.

SEC play begins Saturday, September 26th and in Episode 4, Gregg looks at the players within the conference to be sure to watch for the 2021 draft.  Najee Harris, Devonta Smith and Jaylen Waddle aren't the only guys you should tune in to watch.  Gregg also reflects on Week 3 of the college football season and looks at the performances of some draft-eligible prospects. 

Stay tuned next week when Gregg takes a look at the Pac-12, which announced it will resume play on November 6.

In Episode 2, Gregg turns to the defensive side of the football, taking a look at over 60 draft-eligible prospects to watch for during the 2020 College Football season.  He also comments on Week 1 of the season and looks ahead to the upcoming schedule of games.

In Episode 1, Gregg kicks off the return of the Ready for the Draft podcast by taking a look at how the Covid-19 virus has made an impact on the college football landscape in 2020.  Not only does he take a look at over 100 draft-eligible playes on offense for the 2021 draft, but he also will look at who we get to see in the Fall, who we'll have to wait until 2021 to see take the field this season and who has opted out of the 2020 season altogether.

Stay tuned for next week when Gregg shifts to the other side of the ball and breaks down the defensive players to watch in 2020.

After 40 episodes dedicated to the 2020 NFL Draft, the final episode of the series looks ahead to 2021.  Trevor Lawrence, Penei Sewell, Justin Fields, Micah Parsons and Ja'Marr Chase are all known commodities, but who else can we keep an eye on during the 2020 College Football Season?

To see Gregg's full seven-round mock draft, check out www.readyforthedraft.com.

The NFL Draft is next week, so Gregg will be taking one final look at the positional breakdown and the expected draft position for each of the prospects.  Episode 37 picks up where we left off covering the DE's, DT's and LB's, discussing the final three rounds.  We also focus on the secondary.  We know Jeffrey Okudah and CJ Henderson are the top two corners in the draft, but who else will be drafted in Round 1?  Kristian Fulton, Trevon Diggs, AJ Terrell, Jeff Gladney, Noah Igbinoghene all have that potential.  At Safety, Antoine Winfield, Jr. is the most versatile safety, but is he worthy of a 1st Round pick?  Winfield, Jr., Xavier McKinney, Jeremy Chinn, Grant Delpit and Kyle Dugger should all hear their names called early in the draft.

The NFL Draft is next week, so Gregg will be taking one final look at the positional breakdown and the expected draft position for each of the prospects.  Episode 36 focuses on the first four rounds of the DE, DT and LB positions.  Chase Young is the top DE and is likely going No. 2 overall, but who will be No. 2 - AJ Epenesa or Yetur Gross-Matos?  Who can we expect on Day 2?  Derrick Brown and Javon Kinlaw are clearly the top two DT's in this draft, the only question will be where they come off the board. And at LB, Isaiah Simmons is the jack-of-all trades LB and is a top 10 pick, but where does he come off the board?  Who will the next LB be off the board, K'Lavon Chaisson, Kenneth Murray or Patrick Queen?

The NFL Draft is next week, so Gregg will be taking one final look at the positional breakdown and the expected draft position for each of the prospects.  Episode 35 focuses on the Offensive Line.  There are four elite OT prospects in Jedrick Wills, Jr., Tristn WIrfs, Andrew Thomas and Mekhi Becton, all of whom will be coming off the board in the first half of Round 1.  Then, there's  drop-off to the next wave of OT's like Josh Jones, Austin Jackson, Ezra Cleveland and Isaiah Wilson, followed by another drop-off.  There isn't an OG worthy of a 1st Round grade, but there is talent, especially in the middle rounds.  At the pivot, Cesar Ruiz has a 1st Round grade, but he's not the only talented OC.  Ruiz, Matt Hennessy and Lloyd Cushenberry lead a Center class that could have as many as nine drafted.

The NFL Draft is next week, so Gregg will be taking one final look at the positional breakdown and the expected draft position for each of the prospects.  Episode 34 focuses on the WR and TE positions.  In a WR draft class that is deep as we've seen in some time, there's no question CeeDee Lamb, Jerry Jeudy and Henry Ruggs are at the top of the list, but in which order will they come off the board?  And in the group of Justin Jefferson, Tee Higgins, Denzel Mims, Michael Pittman, Jr., Jalen Reagor, Laviska Shenault and Brandon Aiyuk, who will be 1st Rounders and who slides to Round 2?  Which WR's will be Day 3 sleepers?  And at the TE position, there isn't a 1st Rounder in the group, but there are pass catchers who will be intriguing for teams late on Day 2 and early on Day 3.

The NFL Draft is next week, so Gregg will be taking one final look at the positional breakdown and the expected draft position for each of the prospects.  Episode 33 focuses on the QB and RB positions.  At QB, Joe Burrow is expected to be the No. 1 overall pick, but then things get interesting.  Will Tua Tagovailoa go to Miami at No. 5, or will he slide on draft day due to his durability concerns?  Who's getting drafted first, Justin Herbert or Jordan Love?  Then how long will it be before the next QB is taken?  Where and when might we see Jacob Eason, Jalen Hurts and Jake Fromm come off the board?  And at RB, D'Andre Swift appears to be a 1st Rounder, but does Jonathan Taylor have the higher ceiling?  JK Dobbins, Cam Akers and Clyde Edwards-Helaire all seem to be locks as Day 2 picks.  But what about AJ Dillon, Zach Moss and Eno Benjamin?  And who's the sleeper of the RB class?

Ready for the Draft Podcast is looking at how the impact free agency has had on draft projections for all 32 NFL teams.  Gregg is breaking up his podcasts by division.  Episode 32 focuses on the AFC West.  The Philip Rivers Era has come to an end for the Chargers andthe future of the franchise must be solidified with the No. 6 overall pick. WIll it be Justin Herbert or Jordan Love?  The Silver and Black are now in Vegas and have two 1st Round picks.  They need a No. 1 wideout to finally replace Amari Cooper, but in which direction will they go with the 19th pick?  Denver needs a vertical threat to stretch defenses for Drew Lock, but adding another corner is also a priority.  In which direction will the Broncos go at No. 15?  And the reigning Super Bowl Champs are an offensive juggernaut, but there are needs up front and on the back end of the defense.  Will their 1st Round pick be used there, or might they decide to shore up the interior of the OL to protect Patrick Mahomes?

Ready for the Draft Podcast is looking at how the impact free agency has had on draft projections for all 32 NFL teams.  Gregg is breaking up his podcasts by division.  Episode 31 focuses on the NFC West.  Arizona landed their No. 1 wideout in Deandre Hopkins, but with Patrick Peterson eligible for free agency after the season, could we see the Cards use this pick on CJ Henderson, especially with the signing of Marcus Gilbert?  Or will Arizona look to break the streak of three straight seasons with 50 sacks given up by landing their RT of the future?  San Francisco traded DeForest Buckner to Indy and, in turn, gained a second 1st Round pick.  In which direction will the Niners go at No. 13?  It may depend on what the Jets do with the 11th pick.  If the Jets go WR, then this pick could be CJ Henderson s there's a need at corner.  However, the Jets also have a need at CB, so if they take Henderson, will San Fran take Jerry Jeudy to team with Deebo Samuel?  And at No. 31, if they go CB early, this will be a WR, but if they go WR, I think this pick could be used on Cesar Ruiz to address the IOL.  Seattle's pick will depend on whether they can bring back Jadeveon Clowney.  If Clowney comes back, this pick may be used to address the O-line.  And the cash-strapped Rams are without a 1st Round pick following the Jalen Ramsey trade.  WIth Todd Gurley now in Atlanta, finding his replacement is a must.

Ready for the Draft Podcast is looking at how the impact free agency has had on draft projections for all 32 NFL teams.  Gregg is breaking up his podcasts by division.  Episode 30 focuses on the AFC South.  Jacksonville must fill the void left by the release of Marcell Dareus; even if Derrick Brown is off the board, the Jags can land an impact DT in Javon Kinlaw.  Tennessee could land a corner in Round 1, but they also need to replace Jack Conklin at RT.  In which direction will they go?  Indianapolis and Houston do not have 1st Round picks, but I wouldn't rule out a trade back into the first day of the draft.  Philip Rivers may be the QB in Indy in 2020, but neither he nor Jacoby Brissett will be the future.  Jordan Love could be their target, especially now that Chris Ballard has his 3-technique in DeForest Buckner.  And Houston traded DeAndre Hopkins away, leaving them in need of a No. 1 WR.  Will they trade up?

Ready for the Draft Podcast is looking at how the impact free agency has had on draft projections for all 32 NFL teams.  Gregg is breaking up his podcasts by division.  Episode 29 focuses on the NFC South.  Carolina must focus on defense in Round 1 and if they can land a dominant presence along the interior of the line to build around, Matt Rhule and Co. will be off to a great start on Draft Day.  Tom Brady took his talents to Tampa, which means the Bucs have to focus on keeping him upright.  Atlanta is in the midst of a roster overhaul and adding a pass rusher to provide consistent pressure is a must.  New Orleans is the defending division champs, but will they use the No. 24 pick on a running mate for Michael Thomas, or will the addition of Emmanuel Sanders allow the Saints to take advantage of the depth of the WR draft class and focus on a playmaker at LB?

Ready for the Draft Podcast is looking at how the impact free agency has had on draft projections for all 32 NFL teams.  Gregg is breaking up his podcasts by division.  Episode 28 focuses on the AFC North.  Zac Taylor and Cincinnati gain their franchise QB in Joe Burrow while Cleveland is looking to protect Baker Mayfield, so adding a top OT in the draft like Mekhi Becton makes sense.  Baltimore's ILB position is extremely thin.  It's posible the Ravens double up at the position in the draft, taking Kenneth Murray in Round One along with another inside backer on Day 2.  Pittsburgh traded its 1st Round pick to Miami in the Minkah Fitzpatrick deal, but should look to address offensive weapons, the LB corps and OL early.

Ready for the Draft Podcast is looking at how the impact free agency has had on draft projections for all 32 NFL teams.  Gregg is breaking up his podcasts by division.  Episode 27 focuses on the NFC North.  Detroit has needs at both DT and CB.  Do they get an interior presence like Derrick Brown or a lockdown corner in Jeffrey Okudah replace Darius Slay?  Minnesota now has two 1st Round picks following the trade of Stefon Diggs.  You have to expect one of the picks will be used on Diggs' replacement.  The other pick needs to be a CB, especially now that Xavier Rhodes, Trae Waynes and Mackensie Alexander have all departed.  Green Bay needs to add weapons for Aaron Rodgers, but which WR will come off the board at No. 30?  And Chicago doesn't have a 1st Round pick as it was given to the Raiders in the Khalil Mack trade, but will they use their two 2nd Round picks to upgrade the secondary?

Ready for the Draft Podcast is looking at how the impact free agency has had on draft projections for all 32 NFL teams.  Gregg will break up his podcasts by division.  Episode 26 focuses on the AFC East.  Will Miami land Tua?  Do they have to trade up to get him?  And how can this draft really shape their future, especially with three 1st Round Picks?  Will the Jets find a go-to target for Sam Darnold, will they opt for an OT to protect him or will they look defense at No. 11?  The Patriots begin life without Tom Brady.  Do they draft a QB?  Or do they look to fill one of the voids that free agency created on the defensive side of the ball?  And Buffalo may be without a 1st Round pick, but they can still improve their roster on Days 2 and 3.

Gregg also discusses how one change to his top 5 made a huge impact on his four round mock draft.

Ready for the Draft Podcast is looking at how the impact free agency has had on draft projections for all 32 NFL teams.  Gregg will break up his podcasts by division.  Episode 25 focuses on the NFC East.  Is there any truth to the rumor that Redskins HC Ron Rivera will pass on Chase Young in favor of trading Dwayne Haskins in favor of Tua Tagovailoa at No. 2?  Dallas lost Byron Jones and Robert Quinn.  You have to imagine the Cowboys will look to find their relacements early.  Will The Giants select the best player available in Isaiah Simmons or opt to address the most glaring need and select OT Jedrick Wills?  And in Philly, at what point do the Eagles look to add reliable weapons for Carson Wentz?

Gregg begins the podcast discussing covid-19, the impact it has had on the sporting world and how it might impact this year's draft.  From there, Gregg breaks down his Two Round Mock Draft.

In the post-Combine edition, Gregg takes a look at who were the standouts in the workuts, who is forcing teams back to watch additional game film and who might have some work to do in the pre-draft process.  Gregg breaks it all down, from the Justin Herbert-Jordan Love competition, to Henry Ruggs trying to beat John Ross' 40 record; Tristan Wirfs' record setting performance, Jonathan Taylor making a push to be the No. 1 RB, the lack of explosiveness at the DE position and Jeffrey Okudah and CJ Henderson solodifying themselves as the top CB's, while Antoine Winfield and Kyle Dugger were the winners from the Safety position.

Gregg also releases the first half of his post-Combine 1st Round Mock Draft.

This is the second half of the pre-Combine edition of the Ready for the Draft podcast.  Gregg focuses on what to expect from the 151 defensive and 12 special teams players receiving Combine invites.  He also looks back at the 2019 draft class and how last year's Combine impacted the narrative for the draft.

The first of two pre-Combine episodes is dedicated to the 174 offensive players receiving invites to the Combine.  Gregg takes a position-by-position look at what to expect during this year's Combine and what it means for the Draft, while also looking back at the 2019 draft class and how last year's Combine impacted the narrative for the draft.

Episode 20 is dedicated to looking back at each of the bowls and all-star games to discuss key performances and how they will affect the draft.  Gregg takes a look at every bowl game, from Cole McDonald's performance in the Hawaii Bowl to Lamical Perine lighting up the Orange Bowl on the ground and through the air to Lynn Bowden's dynamic display in the Belk Bowl.  He details the key matchups, especially Austin Jackson vs. AJ Epenesa and how Epenesa set himself apart from other prospects.  Gregg talks abut how Wyoming's Logan Wilson proved int he Arizona Bowl he's a sleeper at ILB, that Jerry Jeudy is stil as explovie as ever after racking up over 200 receivin yards in the Citrus Bowl, how Jonathan Taylor's lack of ball security is a legitimate concern and that Justin Herbert just found a way to win the Rose Bowl over Taylor's Badgers.  Gregg discusses JK Dobbins' rise after te Fiesta Bowl,  Isaiah Simmons' versatiity that was on display and how Jake Fromm stepped up when needed against Baylor in the Sugar Bowl.  And of course, the LSU Tigers' dominance in the playoffs, how Joe Burrw solidified his status as the No. 1 overall pick, how Justin Jefferson proved he can be a 1st Round receiver and why Clyde Edwards-Helaire is a top-five RB, while also discussing Kristian Fulton and Grant Delpit on the defensive side of the ball.

Gregg also gives a sneak peak into his first mock draft posted on readyforthedraft.com and spends time discussing Super Bowl LIV and the tragedy in Calabasas and how he plans to honor the late Kobe Bryant.

Gregg takes a look at this year's crop of underclassmen who have entered the NFL Draft.  115 underclassmen declared for the draft, 16 of which earned their degrees without exhausting their eligibility and opted for the draft while the remaining 99 were underclassmen who decided to forego their final year of eligibility.  Gregg goes position by position and dicusses all 115 players entering the draft.  

Episode 18 is the second episode of the postseason Bowl edition.  Gregg takes a look at all of the matchups to watch, especially those involving draft-eligible prospects, in the final 23 bowl games beginning with the CFP semifinals on December 28 and ending with the National Title game on January 13.

This is the first of to podcasts dedicated to Bowl Season!  Gregg gets you ready for the bowls by identifying the draft-eligible prospect sto watch for the first 17 bowls from 12/20-27.  He also looks at the key matchips to be ready for, including the epic showdown of potential 1st Round Picks between USC's athletic OT Austin Jackson and Iowa's dominant DE AJ Epenesa. 

Gregg will be releasing another podcast in a couple of days that breaks down the remaining 23 bowls, including who to watch in the College Football Playoff.

Episode 16 marks the beginning of the post-draft edition of the Ready for the Draft podcast.  Gregg takes a look at the performances of draft-eligible prospects in each of the Conference Championships, from Ohio State's comeback victory over Wisconsin to Oklahoma's thrilling Overtime victory over Baylor.  Gregg also breks down what the back end of the defense looks like for the 2020 draft.  Grant Delpit as the Jim Thorpe Award winner and should be a top 10 pick, but he's not the only Safety to watch.  Xavier McKinney and Antoine Winfield, Jr. have 1st Round potential, while JR Reed, Hamsah Nasilrideen, Ashtyn Davis and Richard Lecounte lead the second wave of the safety class.   At corner, Jeffrey Okudah is clearly worthy of a top 5 selection and CJ Henderson is expected to be taken in the top half of the 1st Round.  Who's the No. 3 CB?  Paulson Adebo, Kristian Fulton, Bryce Hall, Shaun Wade, Trevon Diggs and AJ Terrell will be battling it out for that spot.

Gregg takes a look at the final full week of the College Football regular season and breaks down some of the key matchups.  Just how dominant was Derrick Brown against Alabama?  Bryce Perkins put on a show both ont he ground and through the air for UVA, but where would he play at the next level?  Jacob Eason, Hunter Bryant and Co. took down Max Borghi and the Coogs while JK Dobbins ran all over the Wolverines.  How did Jon Runyan and Ben Bredeson fare against Chase Young? Tee Higgins and Isaiah Simmons shined in Clemson's big win over South Carolina while Jonathan Taylor and Zack Baun led Wisconsin over Minnesota to win the Big 10 West.  Then there was Joe Burrow, Clyde Edwards-Helaire and company who dominated against Texas A&M; and Jalen Hurts led the Oklahoma offense while Kenneth Murray led the Sooner defense in slowing down the FBS rushing leader Chuba Hubbard .

Gregg also looks at the top LB's in this year's draft, from Isaiah Simmons, K'Lavon Chaisson, Terrell Lewis and Julian Okwara to Dylan Moses, Kenneth Murray, Evan Weaver and Anfernee Jennings.  And don't sleep on Group of 5 prospect Alex Highsmith.

Gregg takes a look at some of the top names at the Defensive End position for this year's draft.  Of course everyone knows the game wrecker that is Chase Young and AJ Epenesa is widely considered the No. 2 DE.  But Gregg really dives into the rest of the draft class as well.  Yetur Gross-Matos lives in opposing backfields, using his length to quickly stack and shed blockers to set the edge against the run while Bradlee Anae is physical and underrated.  Maybe the top DE not named Young or Epenesa resides in Boise.  Curtis Weaver has been a consistent pass rusher for the Broncos and Gregg finds an NFL comp for Weaver.  Kenny Willekes plays with tremendous effort, Alton Robinson and Carlos "Boogie" Basham, Jr. are explosive off the edge, while Joe Gaziano resembles fellow Northwesterd Wildcat and current Green Bay Packer Dean Lowry.  And James Lynch may be the best DE nobody's talking about.

Gregg breaks down the Defensive Tackle position, which is led by Derrick Brown, who should be in consideration as a top-10 pick.  The only other 1st Round lock is Javon Kinlaw, who uses his length and athleticism to  get quick penetration and make plays behind the line of scrimmage.  Teams must weigh the potential versus the production with the likes of Raekwon Davis and Marvin Wilson.  Neville Gallimore wins with quickness off the ball, Raequan Williams is stout in the middle while Leki Fotu is disruptive when healthy.  Justin Madubuike and Benito Jones have proven to be interior pass rushers, while Larrell Murchison and Mustafa Johnson look to be five-techniques in a 34 defense.   A name flying under the radar is Bravvion Roy, who has exceptional quickness for his size at NT.  

Gregg also takes a look at the games he watched during Week 11 and looks ahead to the matchups this upcoming weekend.

Episode 12 dives into the trenchs as Gregg examines the top draft-eligible prospects along the offensive line.  Andrew Thomas and Tristan Wirfs are clearly the top two OT's in this draft, but Alex Leatherwood and Trey Adams are rising up draft boards.  Maybe the fastest risers of later are Austin Jackson and Matt Peart, who are now in Day 2 consideration.  Along the interior of the line, Trey Smith leads the way over veteran OG's Tommy Kraemer, Ben Bredeson and Shane Lemieux; while Tyler Biadasz and Creed Humphrey are two underclassmen to watch at the Center position as 1st Round buzz continues to pick up.;  Gregg also looks at the TE position, where Brycen Hopkins, Cole Kmet, Albert Ogwuegbunam ad Jared Pinkney seem to have separated themselves from the rest of the pack.

Gregg also looks back at Week 10 of the college football season and looks ahead to the big matchups this weekend, including Alabama-LSU and Penn State-Minnesota.

The RB position was once thought to be devalued in this ever-evolving game of football.  However, just look at the impact being made by the likes of Christian McCaffrey, Todd Gurley, Alvin Kamara, Ezekiel Elliott, David Johnson, Saquon Barkley.....shall we keep going?  Then there are backs who are carving out a niche for their team, guys like Austin Ekeler, James White, Tarik Cohen, Rex Burkhead, Tevin Coleman and Matt Breida.....this list is continuing to grow.  This year's draft class has five backs who have clearly separated themselves from the rest of the pack in Jonathan Taylor, D'Andre Swift, Travis Etienne, JK Dobbins and Chuba Hubbard.  However, there's depth to the group as Eno Benjamin, Cam Akers, Ke'Shawn Vaughn, AJ DIllon, Lamichal Perine are all turning heads.  Then there's a versatile back like Xavier Jones of SMU whose versatility could surprise as a mid-Day 3 pick.  Gregg takes a look at his top picks for this year's RB class.  Gregg also takes a look at what he saw during Week 8 of the College Football season and reviews the matchups to watch this weekend.

This year's WR draft class is deep, not only at the top of the draft, but teams will be able to land receivers who can contribute on the 2nd and 3rd days of the draft as well.  Jerry Jeudy has long been thought of as the top wideout, but after his Julio Jones-like performance against Texas, CeeDee Lamb is on his heels.  Henry Ruggs III may be this year's Hollywood Brown, while Tee Higgins and Laviska Shenault are big time playmakers.  Jalen Reagor is sudden, while DeVonta Smith and Tylan Wallace is a polished route runner, while Collin Johnson and Michael Pittman are big, physical WR's.   Tyler Johnson and Bryan Edwards are reliable veteran WR's, while Justin Jefferson and Sage Surratt are emerging as playmakers.  Antonio Gandy-Golden is the small-school wideout to watch, while Denzel Mims is ready for his best season yet at Baylor.  Then there's Van Jefferson, who may be the most underrated of the wideouts in this class.

Gregg also breaks down Week 7 action and takes a look at this week's matchups to watch.

Gregg takes a look at the QB position where Tua Tagovailoa and Justin Herbert came into the season as the clear-cut top two prospects at the position, followed by Jake Fromm.  However, with Joe Burrow's success in Joe Brady's pass offense at LSU, can we expect Burrow to crash the party at the top of the QB rankings?  There's also a quartet of junior signal callers who will have a big decision to make at the end of the year and could return to school.  Will Jordan Love, Sam Ehlinger, Jacob Eason and KJ Costello enter the draft or do they come back for their senior seasons and how do those moves impact the QB draft class?

Gregg also looks at what he saw during Week 6 and breaks down the matchups to watch this weekend.

Week 5 of the College Football season is in the books and Gregg talks about all of the 2020 draft-eligible prospects whose fingerprints are all over the College Football landscape.  The Bama pair of Tua Tagovailoa and Jerry Jeudy along with the Buckeye duo of Chase Young and Jeffrey Okudah appear to have the inside track as top five picks, but is Derrick Brown emerging to challenge Grant Delpit for the last spot?  Jonathan Taylor may be the top RB, but redshirt sophomore Chuba Hubbard nearly has 1,000 yards through five weeks.  Could he enter the draft???  In addition to Jeudy, Henry Ruggs III, CeeDee Lamb, Laviska Shenault, Jalen Reagor and Tylan Wallace all make a case to be 1st Rounders.  Up front, Tyler Biadasz continues to demonstrate why he'll be a top 20 pick.  Defensively, Javon Kinlaw continues to show why he's considered a top DT prospect, while Isaiah Simmons continues to showcase his ability as a new age OLB.    Okudah isn't the only corner generating 1st ROund buzz.  Kristian Fulton, Bryce Hall, Trevon Diggs and Paulson Adebo are right there.  At the Safety position, Delpit is the known commodity, but Xavier McKinney is closing the gap and is proving he'll hear his name called on the first day of the draft.

After a week's vacation, Gregg returns for Episode 7 to recap weeks 3 and 4.  Has Jake Fromm established himself as the No. 3 QB?  Is Jonathan Taylor top dog at RB?  Najee Harris is making a charge to be in conversation with Travis Etienne, D'Andre Swift and JK Dobbins among top RB's.  Jerry Jeudy is the top wideout, but Henry Ruggs III and Tylan Wallace are making their cases as potential 1st Rounders.  Chase Young may be the top edge rusher, but Javon Kinlaw, Raequan Williams an Leki Fotu are trying to close in on Derrick Brown for top DT.  And is there a better LB at this point than Isaiah Simmons?

Episode 6 takes a look at the 17 games Gregg watched during Week 2.  Michigan, Colorado and Minnesota all won in Overtime while top five powers Clemson and Ohio State continued their out-of-conference dominance.  LSU topped Texas 45-38 in a game that saw both Joe Burrow and Sam Ehlinger throw for over 400 yards, while Jonathan Taylor solidified his status as the No. 1 RB with three 1st half TD's for Wisconsin.  Chase Young, Derrick Brown and Curtis Weaver continue to prove why they'll hear their names called early in Round 1.  Albert Okwuegbunam and Colby Parkinson showcased their receiving ability that makes them the top TE prospects.  Gregg breaks it all down and gets you ready for all that Week 3 has to offer.

Episode 5 covers the first full week of College Football action and takes a look at how draft-eligible prospects fared.  Did Tua Tagovailoa and Jerry Jeudy cement themselves as the top QB and WR in the draft?  Who's the top RB - Jonathan Taylor, Travis Etienne or D'Andre Swift?  Is Chase Young the real deal at DE?  Should Paulson Adebo be considered the best corner?  And is Xavier McKinney closing the gap on Grant Delpit as the best Safety?  Tune in to get Gregg's thoughts.

 In Episode 4, Gregg takes a look at the Week 0 matchups as Florida held off Miami 24-20 while Hawaii defeated Arizona 45-38 after tackling QB Khalil Tate at the one-yard line with no time on the clock.  Gregg also unveils his 2nd Annual "All Schutze Team" which showcases his favorite players from the 2019 draft who he feels can make an impact at the next level.  And Gregg also takes a look at the first full week of College Football action, breaking down som eo fhte key matchups to watch for, focusing on the top draft-eligible prospects in those games.

College football is back and Gregg is ready to break down the opening matchups on August 24.  He'll take a look at the Miami Hurricanes taking on the Florida Gators in Orlando.  The game will feature a ton of talent on defense, from the likes of CJ Henderson, Jabari Zuniga, Jonathan Greenard and David Reese II for the Gators to Trevon Hill, Shaq Quarterman, Michael Pinckney and Pat Bethel for the 'Canes.  He'll also take a look at the QB battle between Khalil Tate of Arizona and Cole McDonald of Hawaii in the late game.  

Finally, Gregg will introduce you to the FCS and small school prospects on the Senior Bowl Watch List, including AJ Hines, Michael Bandy, Zach Hall, Dante Olson and Rashad Robinson, to give you some insight leading into the start of the college football season.

College Football is BACK!  Who's ready???

Gregg's final 1st Round mock draft is revealed.  Arizona has to take Kyler Murray No. 1 overall, right?  After that, Nick Bosa and Quinnen Williams lead a talented group of defensive players at the top end of the draft.  It seems like the narrative again this year is where the QB's will go.  Do the Giants take a QB and will it be Dwayne Haskins or Drew Lock?  Do the Dolphins or Redskins trade into the top 10 to land a QB or do they enter the Josh Rosen sweepstakes?  Lots to consider on the eve of the NFL Draft.  

Are you ready for the draft?  It's time!  THE DRAFT IS HERE! 

The final installment of the rapid-fire podcasts dedicated to positional breakdowns focuses on the secondary.  Deandre Baker, Byron Murphy and Greedy Williams are the top corners most likely to come off the board in the 1st Round, but just how deep is this draft class?  It appears as though the depth will be in the 4th-5th Round range.  At least one Safety has been taken in every draft since 2012.  Is there a Safety that will come off the board in Round One?  The best value appears to be on Day 2, where it makes the most sense to draft the likes of Chauncey Gardner-Johnson, Nasir Adderley, Taylor Rapp, Darnell Savage, Johnathan Abram, Amani Hooker and Juan Thornhill.

The latest rapid-fire podcast breaks down the LB position .  Everyone knows about Devin White and Devin Bush coming off the board early in the 1st Round, but who can we expect off the board on Day 2?  In today's NFL, versatile LB's who can be on the field for all three downs is a must.  This change in the game will also impact the type of LB's teams will be drafting.  Guys like Germaine Pratt, Drue Tranquill, Blake Cashman, Ben Burr-Kirven and Terrill Hanks will hear their names called earlier than you might expect, and could even be called before the likes of more well known LB's like Te'Von Coney and T.J. Edwards.  

The latest installment of the rapid-fire podcasts brings us the defensive side of the football, the strength of th draft at the top.  Just how many edge rushers and DT's will be taken in the 1st Round?  And because of the depth, who falls into Day 2 that end up being a steal?   Gregg takes a look at the edge rushers and DT's and shows why these positions appear to be so loaded for this year's draft.  Nick Bosa, Josh Allen, Quinnen WIlliams, Christian Wilkins, Brian Burns, Clelin Ferrell, Jeffery Simmons, Dexter Lawrence, Rashan Gary, all considered 1st Rounders, with Jerry Tillery, Dre'Mont Jones, Chase Winovich and Jaylon Ferguson not too far behind.

The fourth installment of the rapid-fire positional breakdown podcasts focuses on TE's and the OL.  Will we see just the fourth TE taken in the top 10 since 2004?  How many OT's will be taken in Round One?  How many OG's will be taken in the first two days of the draft?  And will we see a pair of centers taken in Round One for the second year in a row?

The third installment of the rapid-fire podcasts providing positional breakdowns is all about the WR's.  This is a deep draft class, but how many receivers will come off the board in Round One?  Is the best value in the 2nd and 3rd Rounds?  And who are the Day Three sleepers who to keep an eye on?

Episode 27 is the second installment of the Rapid-Fire Podcasts and it's all about the RB's.  Is there a RB worthy of a 1st Round Pick, or will we have to wait until Day 2 to have the first RB taken for the first time since 2014?  Josh Jacobs, David Montgomery, Darrell Henderson, Damien Harris, Trayveon Williams, Devin Singletary are all guys you can expect to come off the board in the first two days of the draft.  Gregg will talk about some Day 3 steals and looks at what the market looks like for Bryce Love and Rodney Anderson, both of whom have serious durability concerns.

Episode 26 begins Gregg's rapid-fire podcasts of positional breakdowns with the Quarterback position.  Gregg not only looks at 1st Round QB's in Kyler Murray, Dwayne Haskins and Drew Lock, but also the next tier of Daniel Jones, Will Grier and Ryan Finley.  Is Brett Rypien the most underrated of the QB's in the draft?  Who are the developmental QB's who might hear their names called late on Day 3?  And Gregg breaks down the numbers of the QB position in the NFL Draft over the last five years.

The rapid-fire podcasts will be released every couple of days and will feature a different position in each podcast.  The goal will be to get you prepared so you are ready for this year's draft.

After taking a look at teams with top 20 picks in the 1st Round and analyzing his four-round mock for each of those teams, Gregg reviewed the remaining nine teams with 1st round selections as well as the four teams (Cleveland, Dallas, New Orleans and Chicago) without a pick on the 1st day of the draft.  

Stay tuned as Gregg plans to release a podcast every couple of days that will feature positional breakdowns to help prepare you for the draft.

In Episode 24, Gregg breaks down how the first four rounds will shape up for teams in the top 20 of the 1st Round.  Next episode will cover the remaining teams and will  begin the positional breakdown that will help you prepare for the draft, which is set to begin in three weeks!

Gregg starts breaking down his two-round mock for each NFL team, starting with those in the Top 10.  Is Kyler Murray really the best fit for Kliff Kingsbury's offense in Arizona?  Will the 49ers pass on Nick Bosa for Quinnen Williams?  How did Ed Oliver's Pro Day performance affect his draft stock?

Also, keep an eye out for Episode 24 later this week, which will break down how the first two rounds might play out for teams not in the top 10.

It's the Post-Combine Edition of the Ready for the Draft Podcast.  Gregg breaks down his observations by position group and how the Combine performances affected draft rankings.  He also takes a look at Kyler Murray and where Josh Rosen might wind up if the Arizona Cardinals do take Murray with the No.1  overall pick.

A lot has taken place since last week's Podcast - Kyler Murray has officially committed to football, Joe Flacco was traded to the Broncos and 1st Round hopeful Jeffery Simmons tore his ACL.  Gregg takes a look at how all three impact the draft.  Which teams will likely be eyeing Kyler Murray?  What does the Flacco trade do for Denver?  Will they turn their focus to defense or still look to find their QB of the future at No. 10 overall?  What will the ACL tear do to Simmons' draft stock, especially with his checkered past?

Last episode, Gregg broke down the top 16 picks of his mock draft.  However, things have already changed.  He looks at the changes and why they happened before breaking down the final 16 picks of the 1st Round Mock.

The NFL Combine begins early next month.  Gregg will be taking a look at who to watch out for, propsects with the most to gain and who has the most to prove at the Combine.  Stay Tuned.

Stay tuned next week for the back half of Gregg's 1st Round mock.  Still to Come - What to watch for at the Combine.

 Episode 18 is Part 2 of a look at all Underclassmen declaring for the 2019 NFL Draft.  There are 103 underclassmen forgoing their remaining eligibility, another 32 players who have fulfilled their degree requirements and are entering the draft early and finally 9 players who inquired about their draft status and elected to make themselves eligible for the draft rather than return for their final season.  That's 144 new players added to this year's draft class.  

Last episode covered the 59 underclassmen in alphabetical order by school, which means Gregg touched on prospects from Alabama through Kentucky.  That means this podcast will take a look at the final 85 underclassmen who made themselve eligible for this year's draft, covering prospects starting with Ed Alexander of LSU and finishing with Youhanna Ghaifan of Wyoming.  

Gregg also takes a look at prospects who helped themselves and those who need work following the Senior Bowl.

Later this week, Episode 17 will address all early entrants to the NFL Draft.  What does this do to the draft class as well as the college football landscape?

Episode 15 is part two of the two-part series dedicated to Bowl Season.  Gregg takes a look at the second half of the bowls beginning on December 28 and calls out the draft-eligible prospects to watch out for along with a few underclassmen of note.  The 28th will feature the likes of Derrick Brown and Jarrett Stidham of Auburn, David Sills V of West Virginia and Iowa State's David Montgomery and Hakeem Butler.  Before we get to the CFP semifinals on the 29th, the Peach Bowl features defensive standouts Jachai Polite, Jabari Zuniga and Chauncy Gardner-Johnson of Florida and Chase Winovich of Michigan.  Deebo Samuel, Jake Bentley and South Carolina look to take out the Virginia Cavaliers in the Belk Bowl, while Justice Hansen leads the Arkansas State offense against Malik Reed and the Nevada Wolfpack defense in the Arizona Bowl.  New Year's Eve bowls feature Cincinnati's dynamic DT's Cortyez Broughton and Marquise Copeland in the middle against Virginia Tech, Stanford's Bryce Love and JJ Arcega-Whiteside look to outscore Qadree Ollison, Darren Hall and the Pittsburgh Panthers in the Sun Bowl and Justin Herbert and the Ducks faceoff against Kenny Willekes, Joe Bachie, Justin Layne and Michigan State in the Redbox Bowl.  Missouri's Drew Lock plays his final game against Oklahoma State in the Liberty Bowl, as does Clayton Thorson for Northwestern as they take on Utah in the Holdiay Bowl.  The Gator Bowl will feature explosive RB Trayveon Williams of Texas A&M and NC State's standout QB Ryan Finley in what should be a high-scoring affair.  Finally, January 1 brings us Montez Sweat and Jeffery Simmons and MississippI State against Noah Fant, TJ Hockenson and the Iowa Hawkeyes in the Outback Bowl; LSU's vaunted defense led by Devin White and Greedy Williams look to spoil another undefeated season from Central Florida in the Fiesta Bowl; and Kentucky All-Americans Josh Allen and Benny Snell lead the Wildcats into the Citrus Bowl against Trace McSorley, Amani Oruwariye and Penn State.

Don't worry, Gregg hasn't forgotten about the Rose Bowl, Sugar Bowl, Cotton Bowl and Orange Bowl.  He will break down each of those prospects after the new year in preparation for the National Championship on January 7 in Levi's Stadium.

The end of college football's regular season means the CFP Committee has its playoff set, a Heisman Trophy has been awarded and it's Bowl Season.  Gregg takes a look at the matchups in the CFP and discusses why the Committee got it right.  He also looks further into Kyler Murray's Heisman win and why the most deserving did receive the honor, even with the dynamic performances of Tua Tagovailoa and Dwayne Haskins throughout the season.  Episode 14 is also the first of a two-part series geared at looking at the Bowl matchups and discussing the draft-eligible prospects to watch for in each game.  Gregg breaks down the first 21 bowls, from the Celebration Bowl through the Texas Bowl, and offers his opinion on the outcome of each of the bowl games.

Episode 13 kicks off with Gregg taking a look at Duke's Daniel Jones.  Is he a sure-fire 1st Round pick in 2019?  Should he come back for his senior season?  Another year under head coach David Cutcliffe saw the Manning brothers become a more complete prospect.  It may behoove Jones to do the same.  Gregg also looks at players flying under the radar.  Trayveon Williams and Darrell Henderson are putting up huge stats, but aren't getting the notoriety they deserve, while Ryquell Armstead and Karan Higdon lead the charge for seniors in the backfield.  Andy Isabella is a viable possession WR while Preston Williams, Antoine Wesley and Jonathan Duhart can be weapons on the outside.  TE Donald Parham of Stetson could be the sleeper of this year's draft while Max Scharping and Andre Dillard are sneaky good OT's up front.  Jaylon Ferguson is closing in on Terrell Suggs' sack record while Oshane Ximines is putting up big stats, but isn't a name many are familiar with yet.  Gerald Willis has emerged along the interior defensively whle Cortez Broughton has finally put it all together.  Daniel Wise and Chris Slayton will be nice interior players, while Kingsley Keke looks more and more like a five-technique in a 34 defense.  In the New NFL, a LB has to be able to run.  E.J. Ejiya, Ulysees Gilbert III, Chase Hansen, Germaine Pratt and Terrill Hanks fit that mold, while Khalil Hodge and Ben Burr-Kirven are tackling machines inside.  Looking for a big CB?  You're in luck as Rock Ya-Sin Derrick Baity, Jamal Peters and Justin Layne all have tremendous length and have all proven to have the ball skills needed to succeed at the next level.  And at Safety, we know that Deionte Thompson, Johnathan Abram, Taylor Rapp and Chauncey Gardner-Johnson are the top safeties in this year's draft class, but Cedarius Rookard and Darnell Savage, Jr. can make plays too.  And if you're looking for FCS prospects, be sure to watch for WR Keelan Doss, RB Ryan Fulse, DE Derick Roberson, DT's Isaiah Mack and Sterling Shippy, LB Sterling Sheffield and CB's Jimmy Moreland and Nasir Adderley.

Episode 12 starts by taking a look at how Week 10 affected the College Football Playoff.  With LSU's loss to Alabama, Notre Dame an Michigan are behind Alabama and Clemson with Georiga and Oklahoma the first two teams out.  Gregg notes that Tua Tagovailoa has put up insane stats on the year while just playing in three quarters.  However, while he's the odds-on favorite for the Heisman Trophy, could it be argued that fellow QB's and likely Heisman finalists Kyler Murray and Will Grier are more valuable to their teams?

Gregg also talks quarterbacks for the 2019 Draft.   Ryan Finley, Drew Lock and Will Grier are the front runners at the top of the draft class.  Gregg also removed all underclassmen from his rankings until January when we know exactly who will be entering the draft.  However, he does discuss why he feels Justin Herbert, Dwayne Haskins, Nate Stanley and Jarrett Stidham would all benefit from another year in school.  If there is an underclassmen likely to enter the draft, it may be Tyree Jackson, who has led the Buffalo Bulls to an 8-1 record.

The Wide Receiver class doesn't have the depth at the top in terms of viable 1st Round candidates, but the depth is in Day 2 and early Day 3 wideouts.  While Marquise Brown, A.J. Brown and N'Keal Harry get all the hype at the top of the draft class, Kelvin Harmon is quickly emerging as a legitimate 1st Round candidate.  Hakeem Butler and JJ Arcega-Whiteside are bringing the basketball mentality to the football field, while the Texas duo of Lil'Jordan Humphrey and Collin Johnson show of a tremendous catch radius., while David Sills V has a knack for finding the end zone.  Buffalo's Anthony Johnson announced he's back with a huge game against Miami, OH.  Gregg also mentions sleeper WR picks Preston Williams, Jonathan Duhart and Andy Isabella, all of whom are potential Day 3 picks who have a chance to make an NFL Roster.  

In Episode 11, Gregg talks about the upsets that shook up the college football landscape as 11 ranked teams lost in Week 9.  How did this impact the Selection Committee's first College Football Playoff rankings?   Alabama, Clemson, LSU and Notre Dame are at the top with Michigan, Georgia, Oklahoma, Washington State and Kentucky on the outside looking in.  Gregg looks at the remaining schedules to see what each team needs to do to contend for a playoff spot.

Gregg also takes a moment to cover his secondary rankings.  Greedy Williams and Deandre Baker are clearly the class of the cornerback position, though Damon Arnette should draw some 1st Round consideration, his absence was definitely felt in Ohio State's loss to Purdue.  Byron Murphy and Kendall Sheffield are the future of the position, but are they ready for the next level yet?   At the safety position, Deionte Thompson and Taylor Rapp have separated themselves from the pack.  Both are versatile and have proven they can play in the box against the run, can get after the QB and have the range and ball skills to play over the top in coverage.  Keep an eye on physical in-the-box defenders Chauney Gardner-Johnson and Johnathan Abram as well as veteran leader Jaquan Johnson and don't count out Andrew Wingard, who has amassed over 400 tackles in his collegiate career and always seems to be arond the football.

Episode 10 takes a look once again at the quarterback position and how this draft class is losing steam each week.  Gregg also reveals his updated inebacker rankings, where Devin White appears to be the Roquan Smith of this year's draft patroling the middle of the defense, while Josh Allen is emerging as the top edge rusher.  At inside backer, expect Devin Bush, Mack Wilson, TJ Edwards and Te'Von Coney to garner early consideration, but don't cont out the likes of Khalil Hodge, Ty Smmers and Jahlani Tavai.  Pass rushers Brian Burns, Oshane Ximines and D'Andre Walker are names to watch coming off the edge.  Gregg also breaks down the 15 games he watched in Week 8, including Purdue's upset win over Ohio State.  He also talks about NC State and Cincinnati falling from the ranks of the unbeaten and Washington State's emergence in the Pac-12 North.

In Episode 9, Gregg reveals his updated rankings up front defensively, both at defensive and and along the interior at defensive tackle.  Nick Bosa and Ed Oliver are at the top of the draft class, but there is a ton of depth at both positions.  Be sure you also keep an eye on the likes of Clelin Ferrell, Montez Sweat, Zach Allen, Dre'Mont Jones, Jerry Tillery and Dexter Lawrence throughout the pre-draft process.  Gregg also takes a look at the 13 games he broke down during a chaotic Week 7 of the College Football season.  Four top ten teams were beaten; Georgia, West Virginia and Colorado suffered their first losses of the season; and Buffalo is 6-1 for the first time since 1959.  Top QB prospects Will Grier, Drew Lock and Jarrett Stidham had rough weeks.  What does this mean for their draft stock? 

In Episode 8, Gregg talks about changes that were already made to the rankings for his skill position players.  In "What I Saw Last Week", he breaks down 15 games from Week 6 of the College Football season.  Oklahoma an Florida fall from the ranks of the unbeaten, WIll Grier throws three 1st-half Int.'s in the red zone against Kansas, while Iowa State, Mississippi State and Texas A&M pull off upsets.  Gregg also breaks down his rankings along the Offensive Line and at the Tight End position,

In Episode 7, Gregg reviews Week 5 of the College Football season in a segment titled "What I Saw Last Week."  He also breaks down the skill positions, offering up his top five QB's, RB's and WR's a month into the season.  At QB, Justin Herbert, Ryan Finely, Drew Lock, Will Grier and Jarrett Stidham are a cut above the rest, but who's the top prospect at this point in the season?  Bryce Love may be the most dynamic RB when healthy, but will durability concerns affect his draft stock?  Can David Montgomery and Benny Snell, Jr. surpass him as the top back?  And with so many big wideouts in this year's draft class, can Marquise "Hollywood" Brown pass N'Keal Harry as the top wideout?  

In Episode 5, Gregg reacts to the wild week of college football, including the major upset of # 13 Virginia Tech by the Old Dominion Monarchs, the crazy 38-31 overtime win by Stanford over the Oregon Ducks and the emergence of the Kentucky Wildcats after their 28-7 upset win over Mississippi State.  Gregg got a chance to see all of the top quarterbacks in action last week – Justin Herbert, Drew Lock, Ryan Finley and Will Grier – and offers his opinion on their play to this point in the season.  He got a chance to break down pass rushers like Montez Sweat, Josh Allen and Oshane Ximines and discusses why he feels Benny Snell, Jr. has a chance to be the top RB prospect in the 2019 draft.  In all, Gregg made it through 17 games and takes a look at the draft prospects from each game.

In Episode 5, Gregg starts the Podcast by discussing the emergence of Baker Mayfield in Cleveland and the role he played in the Browns' 1st win in 635 days.  He then tackles the third week of college football, breaking down the prospects in the 13 games he watched over the past week.  Gregg takes a look at three upsets in the top 25 as well as the wild passing displays put on between Missouri and Purdue and Texas Tech and Houston.  He also talks about who he feels is emerging as the top prospects along the defensive line and at quarterback.  Gregg also take a look ahead to Week 4 with the hope that by the end of the week, he will have watched over 60 games featuring 81 of the 130 FBS teams since the start of the season.

In Episode 4, Gregg breaks down Week 2 of action.  He gets his first look at Houston DT Ed Oliver, Mississippi State's disruptive duo of Montez Sweat and Jeffery Simmons and Missouri's 1st Round hiopeful QB Drew Lock.   Gregg takes a look at the playmakers o both sides of the ball in Clemson's wild 28-26 win over Texas A&M, including the Tigers' vaunted defensive line.  And Gregg talks about who he feels has emerged as the top WR prospect as well as several underclassmen leading the way at the TE position.  He also looks at how injuries to Washington OT Trey Adams and Oklahoma RB Rodney Anderson will affect the 2019 Draft Class.
