Advertise on podcast: Ready for the Draft Podcast

The NFL Draft is finally here!  In this episode, I break down my final 1st Round Mock.  We know Fernando Mendoza is going No.1 overall, but will the Jets draft Arvell Reese or David Bailey?  Where does Jeremiyah Love go in the draft?  When do we see our first WR come off the board?  And how many OL will be drafted?  I'll answer all of those questions and more!

In Part 3 of my 7-Round Mock Draft overview, I break down the team needs and where I see teams drafting on all three days of the draft for the remaining 15 teams we haven't yet covered.  We follow teams in the 20's and 30's of the 1st Round, from Pittsburgh to Seattle.  And I close it out by talking about the team needs and pick projections for the six teams without a 1st Round pick - Cincinnati, Indianapolis, Atlanta, Green Bay, Jacksonville and Denver.

In Episode 3, I pick up where I left off breaking down my 7-Round mock draft talking through team needs and potential fits for every team.  We left off in the top 10, meaning this podcast will focus on teams drafting in the teens, from Miami to Carolina.  Is Miami taking an OT or a WR?  Will Dallas trade up?  What will LA decide to do?

In Episode 2, I begin my walk through each of the team needs and provide my 7-Round Mock for each of the teams in the top 10.  We know Vegas is taking Fernando Mendoza at No. 1 overall, but are the Jets taking David Bailey or Arvell Reese?  When will Jeremiyah Love come off the board?  And now that the Giants have two top-10 picks, who are they selecting in John Harbaugh's first draft with the team?

FInally back to provide some content leading up to the 2026 NFL Draft.  Better late than never, right?  I provide my latest 1st Round Mock Draft and Analysis.  From the Raiders at No. 1 to the Seahawks with the 32nd pick, I break down my predictions for the 1st Round.

I finally put a bow on the 2025 podcast series by taking a look at all 32 rosters and identifying which undrafted free agents I feel have a shot at making either the 53-man roster or the practice squad.  Then, I start reviewing which players to start paying attention to for the 2025 college football season in preparation for the upcoming 2026 podcast series.

Part 2 of the NFL Draft Review takes us to the NFC where I break down each pick for all 16 teams, starting on the west coast with the Arizona Cardinals and ending in the east with the Super Bowl Champion Philadelphia Eagles.  What made the most sense and what surprised me???

Now that the NFL Draft is in the rear view mirror, it's time to take a look at how the draft unfolded for each of the 32 teams.  We'll start in the AFC, working our way from East to West, stating with the Bills and ending with Los Angeles Chargers.  I'll give you my take on each pick, where I saw the best fit for each team and I just might call out what didn't make sense.

The draft is finally here and I break down all 32 picks of the 1st Round.  I review who I had in my mock draft and what actually transpired and talked through the fit for each pick.  I then take a look at who is still on the board to prepare everyone for the names to pay attention two in the 2nd and 3rd Rounds on Day 2 of the draft.

The NFL Draft is here and I have released my final 1st Round Mock Draft which is also available on readyforthedraft.com.  I can't wait for Tennessee to officially be on the clock in Green Bay!  Let's Go!!!

Part 2 of my two-day NFL Mock Draft starts with Cincinnati and ends in Philly as I take a look at what each team during the back half of the 1st Round may do with their picks in the first three rounds of the NFL Draft.

I break down my latest Mock Draft with the first 16 picks of the NFL Draft.  However, I don't stop there as I continue to take a look at what I think those teams might do over the first two days of the draft.  We'll start with Tennessee and end with Arizona.

The 2025 NFL Scouting Combine wrapped up with the OL on Day 4.  Top OTs Will Campbell, Armand Membou and Kelvin Banks Jr. all worked out and showcased why they'll all be taken in the first half of Round 1 while Grey Zabel continued to impress with his five-position versatility.

Day 3 of the 2025 NFL Scouting Combine allowed us to take a look at the QBs RBs and WRs.  At the QB position, Cam Ward and Shedeur Sanders didn't work out, but that allowed us to see how the likes of Jaxson Dart, Tyler Shough, Jalen Milroe, Will Howard, Dillon Gabriel and Kyle McCord fared.  At the RB position, it looks like Omarion Hampton solidified his status as the draft's No. 2 RB.  And at WR, Matthew Golden's 4.29 40 cemented himself atop the WR group.

Day 2 of the 2025 NFL Scouting Combine is in the books and we take a look at how the CBs, safeties and TEs fared.  Nick Emmanwori put on a show at the Combine, all but solidifying his draft status in the top 32 picks, while Malaki Starks wasn't as impressive in the testing area but was silky smooth in the drills.  Maxwell Hairston blazed a trail with a 4.28 40 which sends his draft stock toward Round 1.  At the TE position, Terrance Ferguson stood out in the 40, but it's clear we have several TEs who could be starters at the next level.
