    How will the NFL Draft be impacted by COVID-19 opt-outs?
    Aug 10 2020
    COVID-19 has put the 2020 college football season in jeopardy and several top 2021 NFL draft prospects have already opted out. Luke and Bryan breakdown what it all means and how next April's draft (if it's in April) will be impacted. Easterling and Perez discuss how players like Rondale Moore (Purdue) and Gregory Rousseau (Miami) could be impacted by their decision to sit out the season and whether Trevor Lawrence's stance on the state of college football in 2020 makes sense.   Learn more about your ad choices.

    Identifying 5 busts from the 2020 NFL Draft
    Jun 22 2020
    The NFL Draft is an inexact science. The first round is a hit-or-miss proposition, with more than half of the top 32 picks usually flopping before they reach a second contract. In Episode 3 of It's Always Draft Season, Luke Easterling and Bryan Perez identify five players from the first round of the 2020 draft who could be headed down that ominous path. And what about those first-round quarterbacks? When should teams play their hand-picked next-gen passer? Luke and Bryan discuss this topic in a new segment titled 'Ratio.'  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

  • It's all about the quarterback

    It's all about the quarterback
    Jun 17 2020
    The NFL Draft is always better when the first round is dominated by quarterbacks, and the 2021 class has a chance to be pretty special in that regard. Bryan and Luke discuss whether Clemson's Trevor Lawrence is as good as advertised and if Ohio State's Justin Fields is talented enough to challenge for the No. 1 overall pick. North Dakota State's Trey Lance is in the mix, too, although his projection isn't as certain. The 2019 and 2020 NFL draft featured quarterbacks with the first overall pick in Kyler Murray (19) and Joe Burrow (20). Is Lawrence better than both of them? Listen to find out.
