Reviews

4.7 out of 5 stars from 1.8k ratings
  • Mock draft 3.0

    I Just listened to the pod cast and have no idea what any of the picks were past the top 5 picks. I guess you were showing the picks on tv but for those of us that listen. You never went over the picks. For those of us listening the episode was all over the place very hard to follow. I’ll be back. Thank you for what you do. Big fan just disappointed.

  • Insights galore

    I have been listening for a year and this is the most comprehensive deep dive into player and team evaluations. Todd and Steve “Mensch” understand college football and prepare the draft like I’m sitting in a scouts meeting. Love their insights. And their ability to discuss what they are seeing on tape. During the season they break down the teams and aren’t afraid to go deep into obscure references and players. My only complaint. Let Mensch talk more.
