About this episode
The 2019 NFL Draft is in the books and the teams that that befuddled and confused over the offseason like the New York Giants and the Oakland Raiders continued that tradition through draft night.
Liz Loza and Matt Harmon report in from Buffalo's Nashville with a special two-part draft recap combining their fantasy expertise with Yahoo Sports' Terez Paylor and Charles Robinson, hosts of the Yahoo Sports NFL Podcast.
In Part I, they tackle what went down in the NFC over draft weekend, starting with their first reactions from Nashville. Next they discuss:
- Kyler Murray and an agressive draft by the Arizona Cardinals (3:15)
- The Giants shocking everyone and no one by selecting Daniel Jones (7:55)
- A surprisingly competent draft by the Washington Redskins (12:45)
- First-year running backs who might have a Nick Chubb-like breakout season in 2019 (17:00)
- Rookies who might not live up to their fantasy potential (20:30)
- Defensive rookies who might surprise in 2019 like Darius Leonard (22:00)
- Wide receivers most likely to make an immediate impact (23:45)
- Whether tight ends T.J. Hockenson and Irv Smith, Jr. can be fantasy-relevant in their first seasons (28:25)
- Draft picks they would veto if they were the commissioner (34:30)
