Best of the Week on The Herd

John opens the week talking about the difference between the NBA draft and the NFL draft and how the NBA tends to have "can't miss" players in the draft, but the NFL is a lot more of a crapshoot. Next, John continues the conversation with the NFL draft and discusses all of the prep that goes into trying to learn about the players as people before the day of the draft.

Baseball is underway and the Dodgers are on a HOT streak with one of the greatest rosters in baseball... but will they go the distance? History says that the best records always end in disaster, so C&R highlight some of those teams across sports. Will Smith released a new album and one of his tracks discusses the barbershop talk about his reputation following the slap.  Covino refuses to forgive him, so C&R highlight athletes we can never forgive based on moves they made. And a video goes viral of a drone show at the Empire State Building - real or AI? #FSR #CRSHOW #OverpromisedSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Where Colin was right and wrong People are overreacting about the torpedo bats Colin talks to NFL Draft expert Todd McShay about Shedeur Sanders as a prospect and why he might be falling in the draft Tomorrow's headlines todaySee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Colin’s top takes of the week! First, he’s joined by John Middlekauff, host of “3 and Out”! They start with the draft evaluation for Shedeur Sanders and Colin argues that regardless of where he gets drafted, he’ll likely be the third best quarterback in his division and whether that analysis gets factored into his draft position (4:15). They dissect the Giants roster after signing Russell Wilson and whether it would make sense to pass on Shedeur and draft a different position of need (8:30). John explains why a “high floor” isn’t really a thing when it comes to drafting whereas “high ceiling” is VERY real (12:45).  Finally, they look at the over/under win totals and make their predictions for who will over/under perform their expectations in Vegas. (16:00). Then he’s joined by Jason Timpf, host of “Hoops Tonight”! They react to LeBron’s comments on Pat McAfee’s show comparing NBA eras and explain why it’s completely pointless because of how much the game has changed (33:00) They debate whether a dominant regular season will translate into playoff success for a young OKC Thunder roster, and whether they have a weakness that could sink them in a series (36:30). Finally, they discuss whether there’s anything the NBA can do to avoid tanking when transformational talent is so easy to identify early and incentivizes teams to tank (42:00).
