Submit ReviewMatt Harmon and Charles McDonald wrap up their pre-draft positional preview series with a deep dive on the loaded tight end class as well as a quick look at the top offensive line prospects in this year's draft.
But to begin the show, McDonald breaks down the 2023-all-juice-team-terez-paylors-legacy-lives-on-with-nfl-draft-prospects-hed-have-loved-140030559.html?fr=sycsrp_catchall">2023 "All-Juice" team and how he and Charles Robinson crafted the squad in honor of Terez Paylor. And as a friendly reminder, to help keep his memory alive you can purchase All-Juice Team merch at Breaking T, with proceeds going to Howard University and the University of Missouri.
Before diving into this year's class, Harmon and McDonald look back at the last decade of tight ends that were taken in the first round and if there are any lessons to be learned from that and debate if we could see as many as three tight ends go on day one this year.
To end the show, McDonald reveals his favorite offensive line man in this year's class and why one prospect stands, and maybe tweets, above the rest.

We are officially two weeks away from the Carolina Panthers kicking off the 2023 NFL Draft. Matt Harmon and Charles McDonald dive into maybe the most perplexing and polarizing class of this draft season: The wide receivers.
But before diving into the prospects, Matt and Charles look at what DeAndre Hopkins' trade market looks like postOdell Beckham Jr. signing with the Baltimore Ravens. Is Hopkins a good fit for the New York Jets? Should we expect Hopkins to be a draft day trade? Matt and Charles discuss both.
While opinions are all over the place with this year's wide receiver draft class, Matt and Charles agree WR1 is Ohio State's Jaxon Smith-Njigba. The two detail what make him a legit prospect at the next level.
And then there's the rest of them. Matt and Charles provide player comps for the top five in the class and share their favorite deep sleeper prospects for day two and three of the draft.

Of course the NFL had to make news over Easter weekend. Odell Beckham Jr. is officially a Baltimore Raven and we have our fantasy experts Matt Harmon and Dalton Del Don break down all the real life and fantasy implications of the big move.
With the Sacramento Kings set to break the longest playoff drought in the major four sports this weekend, Matt and Dalton also look at which NFL team is primed to break their postseason drought in 2023.
Meanwhile, the NFL Draft is so close you can taste it. We continue our 'teams that will shape the 2023 draft series' as we dive into the state of the Seattle Seahawks and Las Vegas Raiders - two teams potentially going in opposite directions.
Matt and Dalton look at how the Seahawks haven't rebuilt but retooled after the historic Russell Wilson trade a year ago. They also debate if it makes sense for Seattle to consider a QB in the top 10 or build a 'win-now' team around Geno Smith.
To finish the show, Matt has NBC Sports' Lawrence Jackson Jr. on to discuss where exactly the Las Vegas Raiders franchise is headed this year and why their decision with the No. 7 pick will reveal what they really think of Jimmy Garoppolo as their quarterback.

In this month-long lead up to the 2023 NFL draft at the end of April, it seems like all of the discussion has centered around the top four quarterbacks, who could all likely be selected with the top four picks. After discussing the detroit-lions-010930755.html">2023 class of running backs last week, Matt Harmon and Charles McDonald spend today's podcast finally diving into this year's blockbuster QB draft class in Alabama's Bryce Young, Ohio State's CJ Stroud, Florida's Anthony Richardson & Kentucky's Will Levis.
Before they talk about this year's class, the guys spend the first 20 minutes of the show looking back at the 2018 QB class and the odd similarities between this year's prospects and that year's group, which included Baker Mayfield, Sam Darnold, Josh Rosen, Josh Allen & Lamar Jackson.
For the bulk of the episode however, they talk about how Young, Stroud, Richardson & Levis are being evaluated by NFL front offices, their green flags, their red flags and why it's very likely we could see all four be selected with the top four picks, but not in the order you might imagine.
At the tail end of the pod, they discuss Tennessee's Hendon Hooker and other wild card QBs who may be of interest later in the draft.
0:00 - Introduction & revisiting the 2018 QB class
18:10 - Alabama QB Bryce Young
27:50 - Ohio State QB CJ Stroud
33:15 - Florida QB Anthony Richardson
44:15 - Kentucky QB Will Levis

Our teams that will shape the draft series rolls on this April with the Indianapolis Colts and the Detroit Lions. Matt Harmon is joined at the top of the show by our very own Scott Pianowski to report on the pulse of the Lions franchise, but before that they tackle a few pressing news stories.
First, they talk about the Tennessee Titans reportedly being interested in trading up for the third overall pick, currently held by the Arizona Cardinals. Next, they talk about Dalvin Cook's recovery from a February shoulder surgery and whether he may be shopped by the Minnesota Vikings later this offseason. Closing out the news segment, Matt & Scott discuss reports that the New England Patriots may have tried to trade Mac Jones this offseason amid purported animosity between the former first round QB and Bill Belichick.
Next, Matt & Scott dive into what the Detroit Lions could do in this year's draft, with both the 6th and 18th overall draft picks. With a strong roster that barely missed out on the playoffs, could they take a QB with their first pick in an attempt to find a long-term solution after the Jared Goff era? Or will they bolster their offensive and defensive lines and possibly add a tight end replacement to TJ Hockenson?
Afterwards, Matt is joined by Yahoo Sports senior NFL writer Charles Robinson to get an insider's take on the Indianapolis Colts, who, with the 4th overall pick in the draft, certainly have their eyes on a QB. But could that QB be Lamar Jackson instead of one of the 4 top incoming rookies? Charles explains all of the different scenarios that could befall the Colts in what is shaping up to be a chaotic draft.

42:35 - Colts want a QB, but will they get the one they want at 4th overall?

Of course, if you've been paying attention, Bijan Robinson from Texas and Jahmyr Gibbs of Alabama may be the two names you're most familiar with, but the guys take the time to dive into some of the lesser-known names, likely day-three picks and lottery tickets that you might very well need to be aware of come this September when they're playing on NFL rosters.

It's (almost) April - which means it's absolutely time to dive fully in to the 2023 NFL Draft. All April (and we're including the last week of March in this), we'll be rolling out podcast episodes devoted to breaking down the draft from a team angle and from a positional angle.
Today kicks off the team portion of that exercise, as Matt Harmon is joined by Underdog Fantasy's Josh Norris and Football Outsiders' Rivers McCown to look at the teams picking at the top of next month's draft: the Carolina Panthers and Houston Texans.
Before they dive into that analysis, Matt & Josh talk about a pair of news items in Lamar Jackson's jackson-ravens-timeline-from-offers-to-trade-demands-to-franchise-tags-205832512.html">trade request from the Baltimore Ravens and the San Francisco 49ers top brass indicating that Brock Purdy gm-john-lynch-qb-brock-purdy-has-earned-the-right-to-take-that-first-snap-as-qb1-183657544.html">will be the starter in 2023 (if he returns from an elbow injury in time).
For the bulk of the podcast, Matt and Josh discuss the Carolina Panthers' offseason, whether they are more likely to pick CJ Stroud or Bryce Young with the first overall pick & how the new-look Panthers offense with key additions like Adam Thielen and Miles Sanders will undoubtedly be a friendly place for whatever QB is drafted in one month's time.
At the back half of the show, Matt and Rivers dive into the Houston Texans' offseason, if they should be happy with the 2nd overall pick, the state of the offense & who the Texans should be targeting with the 12th overall pick and beyond.

They also chat about possible DeAndre Hopkins trade locations and Ezekiel Elliott's reported preferred landing spots.
For the bulk of the podcast, they talk about who they believe were the big on-field losers in free agency, including the Tampa Bay and Denver WR corps, JuJu Smith-Schuster, Jakobi Meyers & more.

With the bulk of the 2023 NFL free agency season in the rear view mirror, Matt Harmon is joined by Yahoo's very own Scott Pianowski to chat about who they feel were the big winners coming out of this season of player movement.
They kick off the podcast, however chatting about all sides of the recent trade between the Dallas Cowboys and Houston Texans, which sent WR Brandin Cooks to Dallas.
