episode

Sheil, Steven, and Diante get together after the third night of the NFL draft and they start their conversation by discussing the Browns picking Shedeur Sanders with the 144th pick and speculating on what this means for the controversial college superstar and his new team going forward. They then survey the rest of the picks and talk about which individuals and organizations won big in this year’s draft, and which ones seemingly took a big step back heading into the offseason.
