About this episode

The episode discusses NFL uniform changes and evaluates the linebacker prospects for the 2026 draft class.

We kick things off with a look at the latest NFL uniform drops, highlighted by the Washington Commanders unveiling their new look. After years of questionable designs, is Nike finally starting to figure it out, or are we still stuck in the era of overthinking clean classics? From there, it’s back to the grind with linebacker scouting for the 2026 draft class. This time, the spotlight is on Anthony Hill, Josiah Trotter, CJ Allen, and Kyle Louis. How do they compare to yesterday’s group? Is there real depth building here, or just a few standout names carrying the class? The bigger question starts to take shape: is the 2026 linebacker group actually stronger than last year’s? Matt and Erik dig into the traits, upside, and overall feel of the class as the board begins to come together.
