What is your feelings about an Italian restaurant? Paul Calvisi had strong feelings about his eggplant parmesan as he, Darren Urban and Dani Sureck talk about what the Cardinals got in their 12-pick draft, including what their first interactions were like with Marvin Harrison Jr. Among the other topics: Paris Johnson reuniting with his buddy, the “patterns” the Cardinals have in their picks, the improved defensive line room and Darius Robinson, intriguing off the edge with Xavier Thomas, how the tight end and running back rooms have changed, so many cornerbacks battling it out, and the potential 18-game season.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The action was fast and furious for the Cardinals during the 2024 NFL Draft.

Ep. 753 - With apologies to the Masters, post-draft grades are “a tradition unlike any other.” Which team did well? Which team didn’t? Who might be a sleeper pick? Craig Grialou and Zach Gershman react to what the experts are saying about GM Monti Ossenfort’s second draft class. Spoiler alert: Monti did very well. The 12 new players won’t be on the field for another week - rookie minicamp begins May 10 - so right now everything is a projection. In fact, Zach projects Darius Robinson to begin his pro career as an edge rusher out of the outside linebacker room not the defensive line room. Interesting. Other draft prospects highlighted on the show included offensive lineman Christian Jones (Can he be the team’s swing tackle?) and tight end Tip Reiman (Zach shared a funny moment from Reiman’s conference call with reporters).See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ep. 752 - Five picks on Saturday. An NFL-high 12 picks over the three days of the 2024 NFL Draft. GM Monti Ossenfort did not mess around. The 12 picks, by the way, were split evenly between offense and defense. So, what do we think? Craig Grialou is joined once again by both Dani Sureck and Paul Calvisi to discuss Day 3 as well as the draft in general. This much is clear, cornerback was prioritized; or so it seemed. One was selected on each day, with Jaden Davis out of Miami hearing his name called with the Cardinals’ final pick, 226th overall in the seventh round. Other positions of note addressed on Saturday were safety (Texas Tech’s Dadrion Taylor-Emerson), edge rusher (Clemson’ Xavier Thomas), offensive tackle (Texas’ Christian Jones) and wide receiver (UAB’s Tejhaun Palmer).See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ep. 751 - Five picks including four in the third round. GM Monti Ossenfort was a busy man on Friday. Oh, and he made a pair of trades as well. Craig Grialou is joined by both Dani Sureck and Paul Calvisi – that’s right they go Cover 3 to discuss Day 2 of the 2024 NFL Draft. Round two got started with a trade down before the selection of Rutgers cornerback Max Melton, a player who does not lack in the confidence department. Then round three saw four selections: Florida State running back Trey Benson, Illinois offensive lineman Isaiah Adams, Adams’ teammate at Illinois in tight end Tip Reiman, and finally Boston College cornerback Elijah Jones. So, all total, the Cardinals double up at defensive back plus add three to the offensive side of the ball. Well done, Monti.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
