Go Long Podcast Tyler Dunne

A dozen smart football people can watch a full game of Drake Maye and draw a dozen different conclusions. We share different opinions here on the Go Long Show and thought it’d be smart to devote a full episode to this year’s enigma at the position — in addition to all of the best QB fits in Round 1.
Should Joe Schoen and Brian Daboll do everything in their power to move from No. 6 overall to three?
Could Kwesi Adofo-Mensah and Kevin O’Connell view Maye worthy of a monster haul of draft picks?
Of course, the New England Patriots can simply stand pat and take Maye if the draft goes chalk, too.
This year’s draft is packed with legitimate hype.
As a reminder, Bob McGinn’s 40th annual draft series launches first thing Wednesday morning. A fine time for those on our free list to upgrade. He’ll start with the wide receivers and tight ends.
This pod, we stick to the quarterbacks.

There’s a very good chance Joey Mulinaro has organically worked his way into your life online. He’s one of the rare humans making social media a fun place.
Maybe it was his Modern Seinfeld sketch on “The Big Game” or “The Accidental Like.”
Maybe you caught one of his impressions — Saban & Belichick, Cris Collinsworth, Mel Kiper Jr., Mike McDaniel, Patrick Mahomes, Gus Johnson, Colin Cowherd or, most recently, his 15 impressions on Catlin Clark in 100 seconds.
He’s always making people laugh with his pal, Benedict. Here the two are in peak form.
Well, Joey does stand-up, too. And there’s a good chance he’ll be performing in a city near you.
This coming Wednesday, April 17, he’ll be performing at Helium Comedy Club in Buffalo, N.Y. You can secure a ticket here. He’ll also be at the Meyer Theatre in Green Bay, Wisc., on May 16 and a handful of cities in-between.
Here on the podcast, we chat about Joey’s meteoric rise — and how he balances it all with two kiddos. We discuss the timeless greatness of Seinfeld, his favorite all-time episode, the art of rattling off obscure NFL names and… he saves his best for last. Joey Mulinaro goes full Mahomes if Mahomes was drafted by the Buffalo Bills in 2017.
In addition to the audio and video above, you can also access the podcast on Apple, Spotify and YouTube.
This was a riot.
Thanks for listening and sharing, everyone. If you live in WNY, hope to see you on Wednesday. Keep up with everyone Joey Mulinaro’s up to on X or his website.

Eliot Wolf is the captain now. The son of Hall of Famer Ron Wolf has final say on draft day.
He’s finally in charge of an NFL team.
So, how will the New England Patriots boss proceed at No. 3 overall?
This was a fun conversation. Go Long welcomes on Phil Perry, the excellent reporter at NBC Sports Boston, to chat all things Patriots’ direction, Drake Maye, J.J. McCarthy and what’s possibly running through Wolf’s mind ahead of the 2024 NFL Draft. It’s a new day in New England — Bill Belichick is gone. But this is also the conference of Mahomes and Allen and Burrow and Stroud and Jackson and Herbert.
Replenishing this talent-drained roster is a (very) tall task. Perhaps trading down is the wise move, but if you love a quarterback you better select that quarterback.
New here? Be sure to upgrade to access Bob McGinn’s 40th annual draft series next week. He has discussed this extremely eclectic quarterback class with scouts across the NFL.
Also, be sure to follow all of Perry’s comprehensive work at NBC Sports Boston and listen to his Next Pats Podcast.
Thanks, everyone.

The calculated gamble in Orchard Park, NY is that this is addition by subtraction.
Stefon Diggs wanted out, and the Buffalo Bills were much obliged.
There are many layers to the Bills’ decision to trade their star wide receiver to the Houston Texans, a clear Super Bowl contender. In addition to last week’s column, here’s a podcast discussion. I’m joined by co-host Jim Monos, a man who has faced similar personnel decisions before.
You can also weigh in with your opinion over at this chat thread inside the Substack app.

Rule changes like this may seem innocent, but they add up. They crawl inside the psyche of defensive players to structurally change the sport.
Yes, banning the “hip-drop tackle” is another absurd overreach by the NFL.
Players have every right to lose their minds right now.
Here on the Go Long Show, with co-host and longtime scout Jim Monos, we discuss what this means for the sport and it harkens back to a conversation with ex-linebacker Chad Brown. (Pod/Words)
Also on this episode, the J.J. McCarthy Hype Train is speeding toward maximum velocity. Is it justified? NFL Network reported that the Michigan quarterback is being considered at No. 2 overall.
You can listen to the episode above, watch the video below or access the podcast everywhere you pod, including Apple, Spotify and YouTube.
Paid subscribers to Go Long can expect a deep dive into the 2024 quarterback class from Monos this week — he’s been studying everyone — as well as my two-parter exploring one team’s Super Bowl window. Bob McGinn’s 40th annual draft series, a nine-parter with quotes from scouts around the NFL, will drop in mid-April.
A fine time to join our community.

The offseason is a time for hope — for players, for teams. Everyone envisions a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.
That was Chase Edmonds’ state of mind exactly two years ago.
Something special was brewing in Miami with new head coach Mike McDaniel, quaterback Tua Tagovailoa, wide receiver Tyreek Hill and Edmonds was positioned as the explosive running back central to it all. Go Long traveled to Florida the summer of 2022 to sit down with Edmonds at Dolphins HQ. With emotional detail, he guided readers through a turbulent life, from becoming a father at 18 years old to an extreme state of depression in college when an ankle injury threatened to crush his dreams to the expected takeover in South Florida.
But instead of breaking out as an NFL star, Edmonds started to disappear like countless running backs before him. He rushed for only 2.9 yards per carry and dropped four passes on 17 targets, including a third-and-goal ball in the end zone vs. Cincinnati on national TV. The Dolphins traded Edmonds to the Denver Broncos. After experiencing some success on a bad team (4.8 ypc), he was then released.
Edmonds signed with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers ahead of the 2023 season, suffered a Grade 2 MCL sprain and — finally — his luck began to turn.
The 5-foot-9, 207-pounder from Harrisburg, Pa., found a role as a change-of-pace back to starter Rachaad White and a needed leader in the locker room. The Bucs made a surprise run to the divisional round of the NFC playoffs and decided to run it back with a slew of re-signings. Baker Mayfield, Mike Evans, Lavonte David, Antoine Winfield (tag) and Edmonds are all back in 2024. The implication is clear: Tampa Bay expects to compete.
We catch up again with Edmonds to learn what happened the last two years.
He’s aiming to play a full decade in the NFL. Not bad for a small running back from Fordham University.
