Our very own Kyle Yates is back on with us today as our trio performs a rookie mock draft while analyzing each and every pick. Who's the top overall rookie selection between Jonathan Taylor and Clyde Edwards-Helaire (3:07) and why should dynasty owners be concerned about Justin Jefferson (20:00)? Also, does Cam Akers (33:14) carry more upside than Ke'Shawn Vaughn (32:20) and is Darryton Evans (43:46) primed to be the workhorse in Tennessee if Derrick Henry leaves next season?

Jonathan Taylor - 0:03:08 Clyde Edwards-Helaire - 0:03:08 D'Andre Swift - 0:12:15 Jerry Jeudy - 0:14:59 CeeDee Lamb - 0:16:16 Justin Jefferson - 0:18:56 JK Dobbins - 0:23:32 Michael Pittman - 0:24:14 Henry Ruggs III - 0:25:24 Joe Burrow - 0:28:11 Jalen Reagor - 0:29:29 Denzel Mims - 0:30:55 Ke'Shawn Vaughn - 0:32:20 Cam Akers - 0:33:15 Tua Tagovailoa - 0:37:10 Tee Higgins - 0:39:18 Zack Moss - 0:41:54 Darrynton Evans - 0:43:46 Joshua Kelley - 0:46:28 Justin Jackson - 0:47:07 Brandon Aiyuk - 0:49:05 Laviska Shenault - 0:50:31 Bryan Edwards - 0:50:59 Anthony McFarland - 0:52:47 Antonio Gibson - 0:53:39 Ben Roethlisberger - 0:54:18

On today's show, Jeff Ratcliffe from Pro Football Focus competes against Bobby and Tags in a fun best ball mock draft. The festivities begin with Bobby taking Michael Thomas (3:10) at third overall, but is that too high for him? Plus, what's the difference between Jonathan Taylor (10:25) and Nick Chubb, does Henry Ruggs III (33:57) make more sense for Las Vegas than most think, and is DeSean Jackson (45:12) disposable now that Jalen Reagor is in Philly?

We have returned after an exciting NFL Draft weekend to break down each team's picks and determine who made the best selections. Why might Denzel Mims (6:22) be primed to be fantasy football's top rookie wideout and will Devin Singletary keep his job with Zack Moss (13:15) in town? Who figures to be the Raiders' top receiver between Bryan Edwards (30:19) and Henry Ruggs III and is Ke'Shawn Vaughn (58:32) Tampa Bay's Week 1 starter?

J.J. Zachariason, author of The Late-Round Quarterback, joins us for a super-sized draft focused episode today! We spend most of the show breaking down the players we are most intrigued by heading into the big event. Our trio also shares their top comps and dynasty insight for the skill players they examine. Is Jonathan Taylor (3:21) truly comparable to Ezekiel Elliott (4:43), which standout NFL WR does Donovan Peoples-Jones (19:46) most closely resemble, and which other QB might have a higher ceiling than Joe Burrow (44:17)? We finish off the show with some fun, quick-hitting predictions (1:03:28) on how things may shake out during the draft.

Jordan McNamara, author of The Analytics of Dynasty, is with us for our last mock draft before the big event next week! The Chargers move up to the third overall pick to snag their franchise quarterback (4:11) and who is the first wideout taken off the board between Henry Ruggs III, Jerry Jeudy and CeeDee Lamb (18:54)? Are the Patriots primed to make arguably the draft's most surprising pick (35:03), will the Colts select their signal-caller of the future early (48:57), and is it really possible that the Falcons select an RB in the first two rounds after recently acquiring Todd Gurley (1:03:05)?
