What were the highlights of the 2026 NFL Draft?

Dave Dameshek 0:00
We're back from the banks of the Three Rivers, Pittsburgh, PA. The 2026 NFL draft has been committed to history. Now we have to try and make some sense of it for you. We also have Pitt head coach Pat Narduzzi coming up. In the meantime, we have to try to figure out who the best pick of the draft was. who the worst pick is, some fantasy implications, weirdest pick, the interminable wait for the vampire named Aaron Rodgers. In the meantime, one thing I'm sure about is the greatest first overall in the history of people, at least in my book, is my 19-year-old, the Cheech McGeech. She's 19-year-old today. Happy birthday, Peach. Let's start the show.
Dave Dameshek 0:47
yes hi and hello my fellow football americans welcome to football america presented as ever by our pals over there at draft kings draft kings the crown is yours and like i just said we're back from pittsburgh what a time it was i know it's sort of like hearing about somebody else's fantasy team when people talk to you about how much they love their favorite sports town and how important it is it's sort of like tell telling you about the latest golf round that you weren't a part of but i'm busting with uh with pride for pittsburgh pa what a grand show it was there i thought it really represented itself well i'm surprised in the year of the lord 2026 that it still is a surprise to people but either way i thought it looked great on tv i can tell you as uh some of the boots on the ground
Dave Dameshek 1:32
It was a great experience to be there. Thanks to everyone who took a moment to come up and say hello and that they're enjoying Football America. We really appreciate that. Say hello to us once again on YouTube in the comments section. Football America is where you'll find the YouTube page and or Football America is where you will find.

Why does Dave believe Drew Allar could be a steal for the Steelers?

Dave Dameshek 1:53
us on YouTube is what I think I meant to say. Either way, you can also find us wherever you find your podcasts. And I did say hello to head coach Pat Narduzzi. You're going to hear that in a moment. Right now, let's start things off as we always do by identifying who the greatest number 62 of all time is, Gino Fuentes. How are you, fella? And by the way, shout out to Mike Fuentes and Buddy Badowski. We'll talk to you guys in just a second. Gino, take it away, fella.
Gino Fuentes 2:20
I'm doing great, Dave. Let's get to 62. 62. We got an easy one, finally. Jason Kelsey. Did Dave ask Gino how he was doing? Yes, he did. And then he talked for a long time after that. Ah, okay.
Ethan Bedowsky 2:29
So there's such a bridge in between.
Gino Fuentes 2:31
I don't know how I remember that he told me how he was doing.
Ethan Bedowsky 2:33
Yeah, because I was like, I don't think Dave asked. I don't think Dave asked.
Dave Dameshek 2:36
Yeah. Guys, you're too far.
Ethan Bedowsky 2:37
Don't be a curmudgeon, Mike Fletcher. No, I don't know if he asked. It was just a long time ago that he asked me how I was doing. I did. I'm like, does Dave give a shit? I don't think he cared. We have gotten too far into the show.
Dave Dameshek 2:46
I'm a gentleman, and I... I asked Gino how he was. Listen, listen, as I think Buddy Badowski at least understands as we record this, I'm reeling emotionally and spiritually. I was just going to say shot at rallying from an 0-3 deficit. It would have ranked for me. I had made my peace that the Penguins were not going to rally once they went down 3-0. But then it looked like they really might. And I had, like I say, made my peace with the loss. But then I started to think if this happens, it might rank up there close to at least watching the Penguins win the Stanley Cup if they could rally to vanquish the hated Philly Flyers. No such luck. Better luck next year. Let's go Bucs. But we're here to talk about football.
Dave Dameshek 3:31
Back to you, Gino Fuentes. And I do care how you are.
Gino Fuentes 3:34
All right, I'm going to make it quick. Jason Kelsey is number 62, best 62. The only 62 I'm going to mention. Take it away.
Dave Dameshek 3:40
What about Jim Langer? You live in Miami. He was the Dolphins great. He's a Hall of Famer.
Ethan Bedowsky 3:46
I love how Geno's pretending he knows who Jim Langer is. He's only there because he showed up on Google.
Buddy Badowski 3:52
Don't act like you know who Jim Langer is. We want to talk South Florida's greats that wore number 62.
