Hour 3: Comedian Bert Kreischer In-Studio, plus Overreaction Tuesday

Guest host Ryan Leaf starts the hour breaking down the five teams who “truly lost” by making bad roster choices with their 1st-round picks in the NFL Draft.     Ryan gives his stamp of approval on the Chargers selecting OT Rashawn Slater in the first round but explains why he has some doubts Justin Herbert can replicate his rookie season success in 2021.   NFL Network’s Steve Wyche and Ryan discuss the Falcons taking Florida TE Kyle Pitts at #4 and why WR Julio Jones might never get to line up with him in a game, just how serious the Aaron Rodgers-Packers beef is and if Green Bay could actually trade the reigning NFL MVP, why the 49ers selecting Trey Lance was the first round’s biggest shocker and why Mac Jones to the Patriots didn’t surprised him at all, and if we’ll see the Falcons draft a QB after passing on the chance to do so in the first round.    The guys discuss how soon we’ll see Trey Lance staring for the Niners with Ryan explaining why rookie QBs have a steep learning curve in the NFL.   Ryan wraps up the hour dissecting Aaron Rodgers options (including sitting out the season) in his standoff with the Packers.  And make sure you check out Rich's other podcast: Just Getting Started with Rich Eisen.

Guest host Ryan Leaf kicks off the hour breaking down the falling about between Aaron Rodgers and the Packers that came to a head right before the NFL Draft’s first round and why the Green Bay QB has a right to be fed up with the team.   Ryan and Chris Brockman break down the eventful first round of the draft that saw plenty of trades and the 49ers FINALLY putting a name to their 3rd overall selection.    Former Falcons GM Thomas Dimitroff and Ryan discuss the Aaron Rodgers-Packers rift and if fences can be mended between the team and the 3-time NFL MVP and the challenge of general managers to balance keeping star players happy with the realities of a smaller salary cap this year, the Bengals’ decision to go with wide receiver Ja’Marr Chase instead of offensive lineman Penei Sewell to protect Joe Burrow, his reaction to the Bears’ “ballsy” move up to draft Ohio State QB Justin Fields, if the Falcons might still draft Matt Ryan’s eventual successor, and which team impressed him the most in the draft’s first round.    Ryan wraps up the hour debating Brockman on the merits of Bill Belichick and the Patriots drafting Alabama QB Mac Jones at #15.

Pro Football Talk co-host Chris Simms tells guest host Ryan Leaf why he’s “adamant” the 49ers will be picking Mac Jones with the #3 pick in the NFL Draft, what the Niners should tell an irate fan base if the team takes Jones, why he has Ohio State QB Justin Fields falling all the way to #32 in his latest mock draft, and why Aaron Rodgers is likely playing his last season for the Green Bay Packers.   Pac-12 host/announcer Guy Haberman and Ryan discuss who the 49ers pick at the #3 spot in the NFL Draft, if the Falcons should take their QB of the future, trade out, or take Florida TE Kyle Pitts, and if the Bengals are more likely to take Oregon OT Penei Sewell to protect Joe Burrow or a wide receiver.   Ryan and the guys wrap up the hour reacting to the news that Tim Tebow could return to the NFL…to the Jaguars…as a Tight End???

Guest host Ryan Leaf kicks off the hour recapping his experience at the 1998 NFL Draft including an awesome story about how his then-teenage brother incurred the wrath of Peyton Manning and his family by nearly delaying the entire draft.  NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero and Ryan discuss the possibility of teams trading up and down in the top ten of the NFL Draft, the chances the Patriots, Saints or Eagles move into the top 10 of the draft, why trading Jimmy Garoppolo might not be all that easy for the 49ers, why the Niners have apparently narrowed down their choice at #3 to Mac Jones and Trey Lance, and where Ohio State QB Justin Fields could be selected.  Ryan wraps up the hour offering up his own mock draft with some surprising slides by two of the draft’s top quarterbacks.

Quarterback coach/guru and former NFL QB John Beck and guest host Dan Hellie discuss Zach Wilson’s last 12 months going from obscure QB fighting for the starting spot at BYU to presumptive #2 overall pick in the NFL Draft, why Ohio State QB Justin Fields is getting far more criticism in the pre-draft process than he deserves, why he has nothing but glowing things to say about North Dakota State QB Trey Lance, and why he doesn’t sugar coat anything when delivering his evaluations on quarterbacks he’s worked with when NFL teams inquire.  Rich dials in from the Cleveland where he tells Dan that he’s predicting a very wet first round for this year’s NFL Draft, discusses the intrigue and top storylines that will impact the top of the draft, what the Teddy Bridgewater trade means for the Broncos' draft plans in terms of targeting a QB, what his Draft Day will be like from the moment he wakes up on Thursday until the final pick is announced, and who deserves credit for expanding the field of runners in this year’s RunRichRun campaign.

Guest host Dan Hellie and the guys can’t contain their absolute giddiness over the upcoming NFL Draft and all the intrigue surround how the top ten picks could unfold. NFL Network analyst Brian Baldinger tells Dan why 49ers fans will erupt (in a very bad way) if the Niners take Mac Jones with the #3 pick in the NFL Draft and why Justin Fields would be a better pick, if the Falcons should select Florida TE Kyle Pitts or draft their QB of the future with the 4th overall pick, why people comparing Penn State LB Micah Parsons to Buccaneers Pro Bowler Devin White should pump the breaks, why he prefers Fields over BYU’s Zach Wilson, and which overlooked player in this year’s NFL draft is his favorite.   Dan and the guys wrap up the hour reacting to news that Hall of Fame running back Marshall Faulk could be the next former player to dive into the head coaching pool by taking the HC job at Southern, and breaking down Antonio Brown re-signing with the Buccaneers and what that means for Tampa’s chances to repeat as Super Bowl Champions.
