DRAFT PARTY NEWS: We’re heading to the NFL Draft and you can come too! Click here for more details.
Guests: From the Scouting Academy - Dan Hatman @Dan_Hatman | UTEP RB, Aaron Jones (@Showtyme_29)
Dalvin Cook jumped on the Carlin and Reese Show on SportsRadio 94WIP to tell us that the Eagles are showing heavy interest in him
We are having some NFL Draft fatigue and we just want it to be here already
John is tired of hearing "you can’t draft a running back in the first round"
Turron and John debate how much Doug Pederson wants to throw the ball and how that would impact selecting a certain type/style of running back.
What is actually happening right now at this stage of the NFL Draft for NFL front offices? Dan Hatman give us some insight on what is happening in the final draft meetings.
"Some of your top executives are finally getting a chance to sit down to with some these players and talk with them. Those guys whose jobs are on the line to pick these players… the more time they spend with the spend with these players, the more they either fall in love or out of love with them. I think that, to me in my experience was what impacted the board the most."
Even scheduling visits can get complicated and the 30 visits aren't necessarily the top 30 guys that are on the board
How would an NFL Scout put together a grade for a guy like Teez Tabor? Dalvin Cook?
How bad do the fights get when all scouts are in the room debating about a certain prospect?
Dan thinks there is going to be a lot of movement in Round 1. Prepare for fireworks.
We go over the latest draft visits/workouts:
CB Adoree Jackson
Friend of the show CB Ahkello Witherspoon
RB Alvin Kamara
The Human Joystick: RB Tarik Cohen (Private workout)
UTEP RB Aaron Jones joins us!
"My mindset is always don’t let anyone stop me and always try to make a play on every play. I feel like to anybody, no one can stop me. [If you] keep that mentality it will take you a long way"
We take your questions!
Double dip Witherspoon and Corn Elder round two and three and maybe get a Jamaal Williams or James Conner in round 4?
Who do you have more trust in: Howie Roseman's drafting skills or the Sixers medical staff? (Yikes)
Which one player who has visited the Eagles would you hate to see them draft?
If both fall to 14, Marshon Lattimore or Leonard Fournette?
Factoring in scheme how much does not being "the guy" in college concern you for corners? EX: Gareon Conley played with Lattimore and Kevin King with Sidney Jones.
How many slices of pizza does it take to eat more than BLG?
Any diamonds in the rough already on the team? Aaron Grymes? Paul Turner? If Jordan Matthews is traded could Turner be the new slot guy?
What would you feel comfortable giving up to move in the draft (any pick) ... What player would you move up to get?
Thoughts on Browns fans saying they would rather have Cody Kessler over Carson Wentz? ... Yes, they really said this
If the Browns select ‘Don’t Call Me’ Mitch Trubisky at 1, John would like all of Philadelphia to get a "You F***** Up" chant going at the draft.
