The 2026 NFL Draft is officially in the books, and while every team feels like a winner on Saturday, Big Cat is handing out failing grades to all 32 franchises for passing on a specific Heisman finalist.
Big CatEvery NFL team gets an F grade for not drafting Diego Pavia
Every team got an F because they didn't draft Diego Pavia. And he's gonna make 'em all pay. And he's now going to Ravens mini camp.
The guys broke down their specific team hauls, including Max’s obsession with the Eagles drafting a 306-pound monster with 6% body fat who has never played a snap of football. Big Cat is skeptical of the cover sack strategy in Chicago, but for now, the trust remains high.
Big CatTrusting Ben Johnson and the Bears draft even though they didn't address the defensive line
I give the Bears a trust in Ben Johnson because they went into this draft with one glaring hole — defensive line — and we didn't do anything. But if you tell me you have a spreadsheet, I trust Ben Johnson. There will probably be some honest conversations about what the strategy has been where there's just been nothing put into the defensive line for multiple years in a row in the draft.
They also checked in on the chaos in Pittsburgh, where record-breaking crowds were overshadowed by local radio host Andrew Fillipponi getting pressed by Icy Vert. The "Press Off" has become a focal point of the show, with PFT and Big Cat debating the mechanics of putting a hand on another man's shoulder during a confrontation.
NBA Playoffs: LeBron, Bronny, and Bitch Moves
The NBA postseason is heating up, and LeBron James is busy making history by throwing passes to his own offspring. PFT is fully on board with the pageantry, even if the Lakers are technically facing an uphill battle.
PFT CommenterLeBron throwing an alley-oop to Bronny in a playoff game is one of the coolest things that ever happened in the NBA
That's one of the coolest things that ever happened in the NBA. I mean, I don't even — he made his son get drafted by his team, that part was a little bit bullshit, but you can't say anything when he's in the playoffs and he's winning games and he's throwing alley-oops.
In the West, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander is putting the league on notice with a level of efficiency that has Big Cat ready to crown a new king.
Big CatShai Gilgeous-Alexander is currently the best player in the world
SGA was simply lights out, just out of control. Good. Not free throw merchant good. I'm talking great. Like MVP, best player in the world good. 15 for 18 from the field. Just couldn't miss.
However, it wasn't all highlights. Nikola Jokic caught some heat for his reaction to Jaden McDaniels scoring a late layup in a blowout. Big Cat wasn't a fan of the MVP citing unwritten rules while his own teammate was chucking threes as the clock expired.
Big CatNikola Jokic looked 'bitch made' for chasing Jaden McDaniels over an unwritten rule violation
He looked bitch made. Yeah, he was a bitch. That was a bitch move by him. That was a bitch move. He just didn't do anything. Here's okay, so for anyone who missed it, the game's over and Mike Conley throws a pass to Jaden McDaniels with five seconds left and Jaden McDaniels goes and takes a layup, which is an unspoken rule not supposed to do. The Timberwolves were up by 14 at the time. They ended up winning by 16. [Jokic] sprints down the court, gets in his face. Here's my biggest problem with this: if it's an unspoken rule that you're not supposed to do that, Jamal Murray chucked a three with eight seconds left when the clock was expiring. If Jamal Murray just runs out the clock, there's no problem.
Ryan Whitney In Studio
Our good friend Ryan Whitney stopped by to talk NHL playoffs, and he immediately called out the show for leading with basketball. Whit is convinced the NBA product is in a tailspin, while the Stanley Cup playoffs are delivering "heroin hockey" every single night.
Ryan WhitneyThe NBA product has never been worse
The product's never been worse. The NBA and I don't watch it. So you can say, how do you know the product? It's, it's terrible. And if you're not somebody, I've asked you guys... lead off your show with hockey when football season's not going. But no, you guys stick to basketball and it's horrible.
The conversation shifted to the health of Connor McDavid, with Whit expressing serious concern that the best player in the world has lost the very thing that makes him special.
Ryan WhitneyConnor McDavid has lost his superpower due to injury
McDavid's hurt. And it just sucks... It's like he lost his superpower. So he skates like no one I've ever seen before... And now he doesn't have that. He still has the straightaway speed, I've noticed... but the little cutbacks where he is beating D out of the corner... He doesn't have it.
Whit is also preparing for a trip to Buffalo to join the "Blade Gang" and face his own billboards, though he’s worried the NHL might be pulling some strings behind the scenes with the upcoming draft lottery.
Ryan WhitneyThe NHL Draft Lottery is rigged if a Canadian team doesn't win the first pick
If Vancouver or Calgary doesn't get first overall pick this year, it's rigged. If Chicago or the Rangers get it, there's gonna be a problem... Vancouver's never had the first overall pick. And Calgary's never had a top three pick, I don't think. So I don't know. If Vancouver doesn't get it, rigged.
Before letting him go, Big Cat checked the temperature on the Hurricanes, who seem to be following a very specific annual trajectory.
Big CatThe Hurricanes will make the Eastern Conference Final and then lose to a real team
The Hurricanes sweep. But every year I was like, the hurricanes will just get to the Eastern Conference final. Then they'll play a real team. Then they're gonna lose. Is that a fair take?
We wrapped up the show with a Monday Reading featuring Jake Marsh's harrowing experience involving a car door and some very warm sensations during a CT scan.
Hopefully, the Uber passenger who smoked Jake is ready to get pressed by Morgan and Morgan.
