    Michael Penix to the Falcons!?! J.J. McCarthy get his wish & look out for Caleb Williams & the Bears

    FOX Sports’ lead college football analyst Joel Klatt is back after covering the NFL Draft from Detroit and starts the show by discussing the most surprising pick: the Falcons taking Michael Penix Jr with the 8th pick. He breaks down why Atlanta’s decision-making this offseason has put both Kirk Cousins and Michael Penix Jr in a bad spot. Klatt also discusses the Giants’ decision to pass on J.J. McCarthy and the Vikings ultimately landing the Michigan QB. The Bears landed two elite talents in the Top 10 in Caleb Williams and Rome Odunze and look poised for a potential playoff run next season. The Broncos have received criticism for where they drafted Bo Nix but Klatt explains why they made the right choice. Finally, Joel discusses why the Cowboys could regret not drafting a Running Back and why Washington had a great draft selecting Illinois DT Jer’Zhan Newton and Michigan DB Mike Sainristil along with the 2nd overall pick in the Draft, LSU QB Jayden Daniels.

Calls it like HE sees it

I really like Joel.
His show may be B1G heavy. He definitely leans towards his alma mater (Colorado).
He does a great job of expressing his opinions. Just like everyone else in the college football media, he sometimes gets it wrong. But most of the time, he’s just about right.
Very entertaining to listen to at work.

Five stars

When it comes to college football, I look to Paul Finebaum for news and commentary — and Joel Klatt for analysis of teams, players, and games. I appreciate how he educates the audience, without talking down to us. And while The Joel Klatt Show isn’t a comedy podcast, with jokes and ‘bits’ — if you ever catch Joel when he’s a guest on The Herd with Colin Cowherd on FS1, those segments are some of the funniest on sports talk television.

Joel Klatt

is too biased to rate higher. He has good knowledge and a good delivery. It’s just too much B10 hyperbole. It I was a B10 fan I’d rate him 5 stars. Any other conference should rate him far less.
