About this episode

The episode previews the 2026 NFL Draft for the NFC West teams, discussing potential draft strategies and player selections.

1. Which of the following three scenarios would be the best possible outcome for the Cardinals in Round 1: A. Staying put and taking Arvell Reese or David Bailey, B. Staying put and taking Jeremiyah Love or C. Trading back with the Cowboys at 12, getting Dallas's 2027 first or second, and selecting Francis Mauigoa or Spencer Fano? 2. If there is still no agreement with Trent Williams in place on the night of April 23, don't you think the odds of the 49ers taking a tackle (if not trading up into the late teens to get one) go up astronomically? 3. On a scale of 1-10 (1 being not at all and 10 being a Howard Dean scream), how shocked would you be if the Rams do NOT select a WR or TE at 13? 4. Do you think John Schneider only trades back from 32, 64 or 96 if a team offers him, at MINIMUM, two extra picks within the top 150? 5. Cardinals three-round mock draft (no trades) 6. 49ers three-round mock draft (no trades) 7. Rams three-round mock draft (no trades) 8. Seahawks three-round mock draft (no trades)
