At a Football Game

Today on the show, Sam Monson drops his first solo mock draft of the year, making every pick as if he were calling the shots 👀

-wasn’t willing to confirm if Walter Nolen’s injury was an ACL or give return timelines for injured players, but said Nolen, James Conner and Trey Benson are all “trending well” -on WR Kendrick Bourne: used to work pregame for an hour together as Bourne’s WR coach in SF. Praised his hands and catching ability -on Bama’s QB Ty Simpson: only had 18 minutes to talk at the Pro Day and while the conversations are somewhat surface level, LaFleur said he was impressed with Simpson -on college QB qualities that translate into the NFL: “toughness.” LaFleur added, “if you can’t sit back in he pocket, you’ve got no chance”

Nah. Lafleur had an arm talent merchant in Zach Wilson at NYJ and Wilson never had the play speed or accuracy or decision making to make it work. I could see him prioritizing functional play.

ESPN's Dan Orlovsky has Alabama QB Ty Simpson as QB1, ahead of Fernando Mendoza, in the 2026 NFL Draft.

Approximate Value Over Expectation for draft picks since 2022: 1. Rams (+125.2) 2. Buccaneers (+92.4) 3. Bills (+79.6) 4. Packers (+76.5) 5. Seahawks (+64.7) ... 28. Titans (-26.7) 29. Browns (-35.1) 30. Cardinals (-36.7) 31. Panthers (-39.5) 32. Vikings (-61)

The Cardinals add $14 million in cap space from last year’s adjustments. Because cap space rolls over, they should have an enormous amount of room to spend next offseason.
