Rich kicks off the hour recapping the exciting and eventful 2021 NFL Draft and says if you’re not happy with your team’s draft haul don’t be so soon to pass judgment. Rich and Patriots fan Chris Brockman debate the merits of New England drafting Alabama QB Mac Jones at #15 in the draft and why it could turn out to be Bill Belichick’s final stroke of genius. NFL Network Analyst Daniel Jeremiah and Rich discuss the 49ers draft and how their rookie class led by Trey Lance could impact their 2021 season, which rookie QB not named ‘Lawrence’ or ‘Wilson’ has the best chance to start in Week 1 this season, how Bengals’ rookie WR will impact Joe Burrow and Cincinnati’s offense right off the bat, if the Dolphins made the right choice taking Alabama WR Jaylen Waddle at #5 over his Heisman Trophy-winning teammate DeVonta Smith, his reaction to the Cowboys’ defense-heavy draft, and if the Aaron Rodgers drama influenced how the Packers conducted their draft. Rich wraps up the hour weighing in on the Aaron Rodgers-Packers rift, who’s to blame most, and how Green Bay’s front office can mend fences with the reigning NFL MVP.
