Biggest steal, Keontae Scott from Miami, the attacking nickel going to the Bucs on day three.

I love that.

Keith Abney, the corner from Arizona State, going to the Lions in the fifth round.

I love both those picks.

Guys that...

overlooked because of size.

I think Keontae Scott's more of a fit concern and just, you know, he does what he, as that attacking nickel, he does that really well, but a lot of teams aren't looking for that style of player.

With Keith Abney, I think the size concerns, you know, pushed him down a little bit, but he's the perfect type of fit for that scheme and the type of culture they want to build in Detroit.

So I wouldn't be surprised at all if Abney and Keontae Scott both outplay their draft spot.

That is correct.

It's just kind of a watch list of 32 names to get ready, kind of whet the appetite for 2027.

Thanks, Dane.

Pleasure's all mine.

Thanks, guys.

I'm Dane Brugler.

I cover the NFL draft for The Athletic.

Our draft guide picked up the name The Beast because of the crazy amount of information that's included.

I'm looking at thousands of players putting together hundreds of scouting reports.

I've been covering this year's draft since last year's draft.

There is a lot in The Beast that you simply can't find anywhere else.
