It’s NFL Draft week! Sing hallelujah, the NFL is finally back in the news again! It’s been a good 14 hours! Anyway, the NFL Draft is one of the many landmark football events on the non-game calendar, mainly because everyone wants to believe that after the draft, their team will suddenly transform from a middling flyweight to an imposing, Patriots-challenging heavyweight. (If your team IS the Patriots, we don’t want to hear any of your complaining.)
So who better to talk about the NFL Draft than Frank Schwab, editor of Yahoo Sports’ Shutdown Corner blog and expert in all things football? Schwab joins the Grandstanding podcast (press play on the player above) to discuss the many major storylines in the mix this week:
• Winston or Mariota? We appear to have settled the great quarterback debate, but how will Jameis Winston and Marcus Mariota fare in the draft and beyond?
• Will we actually see a running back, Georgia’s Todd Gurley, taken in the top 10?
• How good are the receivers available this year? Any game-changers in the bunch?
• What teams need to make a splash RIGHT NOW in the draft? What teams are already in good shape? What teams will screw this up and almost certainly be picking early in the draft again next year?
• How is Chargers QB Philip Rivers the key to this entire draft? The answer right here!
