My first powerlifting competition ever. The guy in my weight class was maybe 5'4. Bench for him was like, boom. I was like, cool, I'm cooked. That's just piston engines, just boom. That's just like body getting it off the chest. And that's all you need to do. I was like, oh, sick.

This sport sucks. Harrison gives us a $50 super chats that can't wait for the next three days. Me too, brother. I love that energy. That's the right energy. That is the right energy. That's the energy we need because you and I are going to be, are basically running off of Celsius's and protein shakes, I feel like, for the next three days.

Pretty much. Definitely had one of those mornings where it was like, man, besides a smoothie, it's 2.30 and I haven't eaten. What's going on here? Oh, I just remembered this. I'm in New York. Dude, if I were you, I would. Bro, I got to get a fat Taylor Ham and egg and cheese sandwich. Your morning is going to be so blessed. Go order a hash brown on it, too. Life will never be the same. that's a pro move life that's a vet life will never be the same check out this one from our guy jair pens

whoa the hundred and forty dollar canadian super chat our guy happy draft miss eve fellas send to you jair pens and we really appreciate the love man thank you the uh got the bears in the a v kalumaks in the a v so i hope that the bears draft whoever you want them to draft stephen gave us a twenty dollar super chat said uh been loving trevor on the official panthers content lately I'm dreaming that Dan Morgan uses 19 plus a fifth rounder from the Thielen trade to jump to 17 and snag Thinaman. Ooh, jumping in front of the Minnesota Vikings for Thineman. He said, let's have some fun tomorrow. I agree.

Let us have some fun tomorrow. We got another one from A Olson, $20 super chat here. Picture it. Mr. Irrelevant, Diego Pavia, declines to sign his contract, but he keeps that as his wrestling name. and signs with WWE instead. He's an instant villain and he beats 50-year-old Ray Mysterio, cinema.

It actually would be cinema. It's actually a good storyline. Is Ray Mysterio 50? Oh, man. Is he actually 50? I mean, that lines up. He's been in the game for a while now. Zach Baker would...

He is 51. 51, man. So, honestly, that means Mysterio had to be insanely young when he got in the game. Because I feel like Ray Mysterio has been on my TV since... When was his... Okay, so he was in ECW in 95.

That's crazy. Really? So he was like 20 years old in ECW. He was in... No, he was... No, he was... So he was basically... Still almost a kid in high-level wrestling.

That's... He was... In 1995, he would have been 21. in WCW, that's crazy. Wow. Damn. I mean, you wouldn't know. He's always had the mask on. I wouldn't know how young he is.

Ong still got it. Lucas gave us $20 super chat said, if the Chiefs pass on Bain, while Aschon Jolati is slated to go start at defensive end, there will be a meltdown on Chief's Twitter, and it will be historic. I'm going to be, PS, go bolts, go both of need. PS, I'm going to be honest, like,

I don't know what Chiefs fans want. I don't know. Because I feel like the Chiefs have, but I feel like the Chiefs have a lot of needs. And when you try to address them, I feel like it goes wrong. So, you're right.

I think Chiefs fans are just very up in arms right now. So I'm very curious as to who they're going to pick and how it is going to be received. Zach Baker, thank you for the $50 Super Chat. $10 for each of the five NFLSC fans in one truck listening to this podcast on the way to Pittsburgh, C McPounder drafted round one.

That's awesome. Thank you, Zach. Thank you to the boys. Everybody on their way. Have a great time in Pittsburgh. Be safe. Have a great time. Sterling, give us a $50 super chat.

So they usually work during the live stream. So of course, the day I don't, I have dinner plans. Looking forward to catching this later. Give the bear someone good. Keep it the good work, fellas. We appreciate you, Sterling. Hold on. Tater's World.

Give us a $5 super chat and said, So Josh Simmons is retiring Trev. or the Chiefs drafting a guy that won't play at nine. Unbelievable. One, why does everybody think that, like, Jalen Moore is untouchable? Like, that's another part of this that I don't understand. The Godfather, Jailen Moore. Am I missing something?

The Don, Jailen Moore. Because the Chief's starting tackle options are Jalen Moore, Wani Amouras, Aisa Poll, and Josh Simmons. Two of those four players have to start at offensive tackle. And I feel like every time I talk about offensive tackle to the Chiefs, Chiefs fans act like they've got pro bowlers there. Yeah, it's a tough sell. I'm just, I don't know.

I'm not like trying to go after Chiefs fans. It's like I'm just kind of shocked at the pushback that I've seen from everybody, not just us, but everybody, when it comes to mocking the Chiefs of certain players. So I'm very curious as to what the reception is going to be and who they're going to pick at 9 and 29 in this draft. Yeah, I mean, listen, they're going to have to get two players at some point, unless they trade. Maybe what makes them happy is just trading up to three

and taking Bailey or Reese or whoever it may be. And that's that. Yeah, but that's maybe. I don't know. Easier said than done. This one from, this is a $50 super chat from a Zerdman. Hey little buddies. It's almost time.

Thanks for all the entertainment over the year. it made freshman year of college so much better. Crazy to think I'm in college and I've never seen the Cowboys make an NFC championship. Go Birds. Thank you. That's really nice. I'm glad I made freshman year.

Congrats on the freshman year. Yeah, one down. Surviving the freshman. Three to go, but extend it to four more if you can. Try to stay in college for five years. That's something that I didn't do and I regret it. What's the Billy Madison where he's just like, don't you ever say that?

Cherish it. That's exactly what it is, man. God, what an idiot I was for getting out of school after four years. Yeah, you should have been a lawyer and then a doctor. That's what you need to do. That's a stacking degrees. That's how you game the system. Matthew gives us a $10 super chat said,

I have a low-stakes conspiracy theory that Michael Lefleur is trying to bait McVeigh into moving up with all this Jeremiah Love talk. I don't know about the McVeigh part, but I still think the love stuff is a smokescreen, but hey, you had love going to three. Yeah, I'm not going to lie, though. It doesn't happen. I'd be like, yeah, I didn't feel like, meter on every single pick, that wouldn't have been one of my all-time confidence meters.

But yeah, it's tricky. And then you had Love Go 4 and it opens the question. Say I stuck with my picket for the Titans. Where would Love have gone in my mock draft? Would have been kind of interesting. Still sifting through more of these. I want to get to a couple big ones. Shlegel gave us $10 super chat, said long time audio.

First time streamer. Followed Trevor from Locked on. Connor. Who is this year's Lan Larson? Oh, man. Is it hiding right? No, he's better. That was the name that I was going to say, but he is better.

He's better. That's the thing. Like, he's actually a real, he might go in like the fourth or fifth round kind of player. But I feel like it's still kind of hiding right. Okay, I got one here from Social Bacon, who played a little joke. Breaking Adam Schaeft, reporting the Jets have traded a massive haul and moved to number with the first pick, they select Kurt Signetti, Coach, Indiana. Hey, not the worst move.

That started off and I was on pins and needles. Oh my God, the jets are moving up for Fernando Mendoza. We've been lied to this entire time. That we just did that entire hour and a half show and that we were going to have to basically restart. That would be maybe the most shocking, like 24 hours before draft thing to happen. If the Raiders were like, actually, no, we're trading the pick. Yeah, actually, actually Kirk Cousins is sick. We're buying into Kirk Cousins.

Ross said, love the show. You guys have been my favorite draft analyst for years. Thank you for all the laughs and the solid info. Going to be supporting my, sporting my NFLSE hat a lot over the next three days. How yeah, Ross. We really appreciate you. Thank you for listening and supporting the show. DBI-3604.

I'm a mental health therapist and a big follower of the show. I love your support of men. mental health. Thank you. Hey, we appreciate that. We appreciate you. More than happy to do it. Benjamin said got my 70-year-old mom excited for the draft. She already loves Dunker with his hair. What are some other non-nerdy prospects that I should introduce her to? Non-nerdy. I mean, you kind of just go right to some of the guards, right, that are just absolute mullers. Yeah, Micah Morris. Markle Bell. People movers.

absolute people movers who's got Caden Barnett from Wyoming oh yeah I didn't watch him yeah he's he's got some some sandpaper to him

Red Murdoch just because of off name alone no red Murdoch could have been all pro in 1993 he is I mean he did just smash mouth

sick name though sick name Red Murdoch I mean there's parents fans of like like a West Did they play Red Dead Redemption? Like what's going on here? Red Murdoch?

Yeah, wait, what's his real name? The pizza? God, come on now. Yeah, what is... His name is... His name's Khalil Elijah Red Murdoch. Maybe it is a Red Dead Redemption thing. Who knows?

He's 22 years old. Okay. Want to keep going here? Uh, Sheldon says, following the Niners Insiders, leaves for a decade and I think the Niners won either Malachi Lawrence, Casey or Denzel Boston or Caleb Lomu in that order of preference. Lomu.

Well, that would go along with me giving Boston to them. Lomu was my pick before Sadiq. Yeah, he was, Lomu was my pick before Sadiq and I changed it because I'm, I'm scared to compete. But I also with the Trent contract and I'm like, are they just going to draft this guy to kind of sit around and yeah. I mean, but listen, fans always know what, local writers to trust with this and do have a great idea and Trevor and I have said this before we really really wish we could do what we did the first year and do the guest mock draft

pick by pick with all the local writers I know yeah it's just to give you guys the most content that we need to like that that just takes six weeks for us of scheduling and it's so much planning yeah and executing we love doing it but it's just it's a lot so it is one day maybe we'll bring it back, but definitely tough to pull off. A couple more here. Robert said, favorite Game of Thrones character as a draft prospect. The hound. I mean, obviously people are going to say the mountain,

but. I feel like it's one of the two, right? It's got to be one of the two Clegains. I mean, yeah. Although, I'll tell you what, Brianne of Tarth. She could be my Mike linebacker any day of the week. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Do you have you watched 97 Kingdoms yet? No, I told you I've watched the first two episodes God God It's fucking draft season It's draft season Dude the episodes are like 31 minutes When am I going to watch this show

It is sickening this time of year Really the final six weeks leading up to it You don't do anything else No, nothing Nothing My PS5 has dust on it Yeah dust But, you know, that's the game.

I'll be back. Don't worry. Anyways, I got another good one here from Catalyst. Okay. Start bench cut. Oh, yeah, I was going to read this one. Steakhouse Tabachi Korean Barbecue. I'm starting Steakhouse without even thinking.

Without thinking. The goat meal to me is a ribeye, a loaded baked potato. And I mean, I could do any greens, whether it's spinach, broccoli, Brussels sprouts, just some kind of... That's the goat meal. So steakhouse number one. I might give Korean barbecue the edge over Habachi

after my habachi slander earlier. I got the same three. Green barbecue is just more creative. Dude, you know what? So I was Googling food near where my hotel is here. I love that. The amount of Korean barbecue in this city in Manhattan is

unbelievable. I mean, I could throw a baseball to a Korean barbecue place. And then I could throw a baseball from that Korean barbecue place to another Korean barbecue place. You know what's goaded too is that in truly in New York City, just nothing ever closes. I know I thought about that. I was like, ah, man, we're probably not going to get done with the show until like 10 p.m. And I was like, oh, wait, it doesn't matter. That'll be fine.

Yeah. It doesn't matter. A very ignorant culture thing I went through in my early 20s was, when I was in my early 20s and working for bleach support and started to travel the country for work for college football and start go different places outside of the New York bubble is that I didn't realize everywhere else places close. People need to go sleep and have families.

But in New York City, it's just that's not a thing. So I would go places and be like, I'd land and I'd check into the hotel and then like 10 o'clock I'd walk out and be like, there's nothing to eat. It's just like an ignorant culture thing that I didn't know. But then people go through the opposite when they get to New York, they're like, oh my God, I can go have habachi at two in the morning. This is a magical land here.

It really is. Yeah, it has some. New York City and Manhattan specifically is just, it's a magical place. Hey, audio listeners, I know you guys are more audio than YouTube, but we're making a big push right now and a big campaign to reach 75K subs on YouTube. If you have a YouTube account or even if you don't, and you would love to support the show by just creating one and subscribing, it would really mean the world to us. We appreciate you guys. Thank you so much for listening to the show on audio. Let's get back to the episode.

Tony League is a $50 ones to kick it off. He said, watch today's mock draft with Sims. Question, does he hate the Jets? No wide receiver in round one. Top six wide receivers gone before pick 33. Also interesting, only one safety in round one. For the Jets, would you reach for a wide receiver at 33 or go best player available say Thetim and feed him and got to 33?

Yes. Sims did say a couple times there was Spotsy consider putting them from like, 20 and on or something. Yeah, I think 20 and on. So, I mean, I don't want to react to his thinking exactly. They took Venga Yawane for the Jets of the second pick, which Jet fans love. So I guess his thinking was more that they can get a good wide receiver at 33

as well if they loved Venga. The safety point is super interesting, because I think Thineman's going to go in the first. and would you reach on a wide receiver at 33 or go PPA and say Thinaman? Because you said six wide receivers were already off the board. Yeah, I would probably, I'd probably take Thinaman and then take a wide receiver at 44. Or once again, try to trade for a veteran. But I will be surprised if Trevor and I, Thursday, our after-party stream on here,

are not talking about that the Jets took a wide receiver with their second first rounder. Next super chat. Industry sources have told me that Vegas is setting the line for you guys' height at 67 inches. Small fry allegations coming true. Deuce Vaughn comps. Yeah. Deuce Vaughn.

How tall was Deuce Vaughn? 5'6, I think. That sounds right. Yeah. Seabund says, Happy Smoke Monday to all celebrate. 5.5. Oh.

Trevor and I are not 5.5. Yeah, we're not 5.5. I'm sorry to disappoint the chat. I almost wish sometimes I would. I'd be a bodybuilder. I'd be Lee Priest if I was 5 foot 5. If you had the T-Rex arms to match, just pumping out reps of 225. Yeah, yeah, the dream. I think I told the story on the spot. I don't have to

rehash it again, but my first powerlifting competition ever, the guy in my weight class was from West Point, and he was maybe, maybe five, four, maybe. So like, bench for him was like, boop, boop. I was like, cool, I'm cooked. Yeah. Go home, you lose. That's just piston engines, just boom, that's just body getting it off the chest and that's all you need to do. I was like Oh, sick. This sport sucks. No, I'm just kidding. Tony gave us another one.

Said, let's make the last mock of 2026 interesting. For every pick that you guys get correct, I'll donate $25. Double for pick 15 and 16 correct. It's my favorite week of the year. That's a fun stipulation at the end. Thank you, Tony. Wow.

That is a super fun stipulation. Yeah. Chris gave us $20 super chat. Said Bo Callahan fell in the draft due to who he chose his agent. I think. Well, the birthday party was a big problem. Yeah, I thought that the birthday party was. No, the teammates didn't go to the birthday.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, right. I want my returner back. It's the best line in cinema history. Axel Ron, $5 super chat. Important question. What prospect, regardless of position, has the most dog in him? I mean, it probably, it's, if we did an all dog bracket, the final would probably be DeAngelo Pons versus Diego Pavia, right?

Yeah. I mean, Kyle Lemon would be upset in the semifinals there. Yeah, he's in the bracket for sure. This would be a really fun bracket. Honestly, Zion Young too. Zion Young would be seeded very high in the bracket. An absolute dog. Yeah.

I'm trying to, I feel like we're missing. Keonti Scott might be in that combo. Also a dog, no question. Yeah, all right. You got a couple there. Yeah, yeah. Mr. Buck's Nation said, and the boys are here, baby.

Let's go. Appreciate you. Mr. Bucks Nation. Also go follow Mr. Bucks Nation's YouTube channel. There's a really great job covering the Tampa Buckhires. Shelton gave a $7. Said y'all should do a big board episode

with Sam and Steve. Even post draft would love to see that. Yeah, we got to get more collabs in with Sam and Steve. I don't think we got one. We want to do more collabs in general. And then April gets here and we're like, holy crap, we have so much to do. And so does everyone else?

That's the problem. Like, you hit people up and they're like, I have 90 things to do as well. And so did you do a video, though, for Sam and Steve's favorite? thing. So Trevor and I will be in that, which is great that they do that. Yes, Sully. Go ahead, go ahead.

Perfect. Should we do the Gruden Pistol Challenge? Perfect time for the pod. My mom is just about to finish having major surgery, so I needed to pick me up. Love y'all. Can't wait for Diego Pavia at one. Sully, prayers up and thoughts. The mom have a great recovery ahead for her. Yep.

It's Skoll. $50 Super Chat said, what's up, jumbo shrimps? Vikings fans are saying not to spend a top pick on a cornerback. because B-Flow's scheme doesn't need it. Do you like McCoy's fit? And how do you guys weigh scheme versus just a damn good player? It can't be hard to find a corner for an, or it can't be hard to find a role for a number one corner. Yeah, I think that the way that I would say this is,

if you have guys that could just do it all. Like if you have a multiversital talented corner, they're going to go in the top 20 and the top 15. Like, that's just the way that it is. But after that, then you do start to get into some guys that are a little bit more scheme dependent. I think McCoy could be a, a good fit with Brian Flores. But I would actually like, you know, somebody who's a little bit more of,

like, can play that off coverage role as well. So I know Flores likes to be aggressive, but I'd like somebody who could play a little bit more an off coverage for him, too. Andrew the nerd, hope all as well, guys, broke my hand last week. So I had a lot of time to watch some players. What do you think the Seahawks should do? O-line, CB, running back wide receiver. I would not mind any of the first three. I'll give you one for each. Basantis are pregnant on at O-L line. I like Colton Hood more than Treve, a little bit at corner, and then Judarian Price at running back. Keith, Slim Befer, better be number one overall on both the boards. I don't even know which prospect that is. Slim Befer? I don't even know who that is. We'll have to get down to this.

Yeah, we will. Do you see Chuba gave us the Goatmeyer, the $2 goat mire, the $2 goat mire, the classic chubbleau. Excellent seven round seven round mock there. Goat Meyer, Falcon Meyer excellent seven round mock. Cino gave us a $10 super chat, said big supporter of the show with my Chicago Bears, most likely selecting best player available. Who do you think is going to be there? McCoy falling to 25. Is it possible for them to trade down?

I think McCoy could be on the board form of 25. I also like the safety options again. Like if the inman's available at 25, it's a home run, dude. I also think they could be a Zion Young team. I know I say it at gnawsum, nauseam, but, uh, okay, Christopher, why is Trevor Miles Mickelis with the beard? Trevor definitely doesn't know who that is. Sycamma commenting on the NFL draft.

You just pitched, man. Also, pick and pull draft's going to be shown on the pod. He's a pitcher. Okay. For the Cardinals. Okay. Last I checked, he was on the Cardinals. All right.

I don't really think you guys look alike. Do we not? Does he just have a... No, he's on the Nationals now. Wow, I feel like Miles Mickels was on Carls forever. Well, because he was. You guys, I don't agree that you look alike, but it also might be that he always has a mustache,

and I'm not used to seeing you with a mustache. mustache. I don't think I've ever had just a mustache before in my life. I don't agree with that one. All right, we got a couple of $20 ones before we get out of here. Guys, which top positional ranking do you think have a chance to flip on draft night, a la Warren and Loveland, maybe Stowers and Sadeke? Love to you both. Happy draft week. Appreciate it, Big Daddy. Whoa.

Okay, what's your example? I mean, maybe this isn't fun because it's been all the rage, but I think Tyson can go before Tate now. Hmm, yeah. I don't think McCoy goes above the lane. Nope. No one's going above downs or love. We've talked about how Freeling could be the first tackle taken. Yeah, I think maybe Eonature flipping and going high, I think could be in the cards.

But I don't think like Stowers goes above Sadiq. Outside a wide receiver, I don't really, I don't really know if there's like a good example. No, there's not a lot of... Maybe defensive tackle, but defensive. tackle so up in the air. I mean, I wouldn't say that it's consensus either. So it's a good question, but it's funny that we didn't really have a good

answer there. Drake said, sup pencil next. Hey, we both do shrugs all the time. Riding to my wife's rassling show. Appreciate ins, keeping me entertained on the road. Trev, come out when we're in Charlotte, you coward. Why? In all seriousness then, why is center a low value position, touch the ball, every play, set protection?

I think it's underdrafted, but I don't think it's, I mean, Tyler Lindelbaum just got a massive bag. So if you find the right one, it's absolutely worth it. I think you could just find them on day two more than other positions. I think that's the big difference is there's just not a big scarcity. You know, if you find a center who's elite, sure, you draft those guys high and you feel good about it. But there's just a lot of guys that can play center, it feels like. Show you're right, $20. This is the last one we're ready. First time making a live show. Just want to show some love. Ted Hurst, GSU. Let's get him some love.

obviously we talked about in the show. Conner's a little higher on him than I am. Any Falcon's thoughts for their picks? Man, because we gotta wait for Atlanta. They are. Wide receiver. 48 and 79 are the two picks in the top 100. Wide receiver, I agree with you, Trevor. I think O-Line potentially.

They say after McGarry, like, they're going to need another big body there. Hey, maybe they go get one of our guys. You had Burke in your top 100. I had Bell and Bowery in my top 100. those three tackles could be picks at the 79th pick. Maybe corner for them, but probably not over those other positions. But there we go. Those are the thoughts that we had there with the Falcons.

All right, folks. We appreciate you guys. Thank you for all the super chats that you guys gave. Thank you for watching the show. Like I said, during the show portion, thank you for all the support that you have given us over the course of this entire draft class. Let's wrap it up and have a very, very fun weekend as we finally get to see where these guys are going and then analyze all of those spots here with you guys over the weekend.

We appreciate you. said. We'll see you tomorrow.
