Our Favorite and Least Favorite NFL Draft Selections
Patrick Daugherty (@RotoPat), Denny Carter and Kyle Dvorchak put a bow on the recently-completed draft by going in depth on their favorite and least-favorite picks, including entire classes. Were the Jags and 49ers’ groups as bad as advertised, and were the Browns surprisingly competent? They then reflect back on Round 1. Was the Ty Simpson pick really that bad, and why is the answer still yes? They go further in depth on Denzel Boston, KC Concepcion and other higher-end picks before laying out other selections they loved on Days 2 and 3.  (1:50) – The crew reacts to Diego Pavia not being drafted (7:40) – Best and worst overall Draft: Browns, Giants, Chiefs, Jaguars, 49ers (29:30) – Most surprising selections: Rams take Ty Simpson 13th overall, Jaguars add Nate Boerkicher on 2nd Round, Raiders select Jermod McCoy in 4th Round (39:50) – Favorite and least favorite pick in Round 1: Titans add Carnell Tate, Saints draft Jordyn Tyson, Eagles select Makai Lemon, Cardinals add Jeremiyah Love (48:45) – Favorite and least favorite pick on Days 2 and 3: Falcons draft Zachariah Branch, Dolphins select Chris Bell, 49ers add Kaelon Black (55:40) – Standout Day 3 selections: Bills bring in Skyler Bell, Titans draft Nick Singleton, Commanders select Kaytron AllenSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
