Pretty Darn Good, if not Great Anymore
I love Mel, the Godfather of the draft. He’s an icon within the NFL draft culture. Still at the top of his game and worth listening for him alone. Field is the consummate pro, super detail oriented, allows Mel to be the star and fills in around him perfectly as a good host should. I think he has an eye for talent too in his own right. But the reason for the 4 instead of 5 stars is what made this podcast and ESPNs draft coverage in general great was the debate format between Mel and Todd McShay. I am personally really disappointed to see Todd go. Not only was he incredibly insightful but he and Mel had great debate chemistry. It’s kind of like when you favorite band loses a key member and while they are still good, it’s just not quite the same. So still worth a listen, but we are SERIOUSLY missing Todd!

Come on McShay, let’s get this draft season started! This is my favorite podcast by far, and ideally it would be a daily pod all year long but we can’t always get what we want. But seriously, please start soon!!

This is by far my favorite podcast. I look forward to walking on campus at school and listening to Todd and Mel. If you are a football fanatic this is a podcast you will love.
