Peter SchragerThe Giants completely changed their negative reputation in just three days of the NFL Draft
The Giants have had the roughest reputational year that a team can imagine... And in the matter of three days, Joe Shane and Brian [Daboll] have completely changed a conversation around this team where like every Giants fan is like back on board and they're like, let's go.
Peter SchragerThe Falcons cannot keep Kirk Cousins as a backup with his current salary following the Michael Penix Jr. pick
I can't imagine the Falcons week one paying Kirk Cousins that salary and having Michael Penix be the starter... if you're the Falcons, you can't have that guy with that salary as much as they say it... that guy can't be on the ri, he's a great teammate in the whole thing and he showed up to Spring Camp, but you can't be paying him that number to be a backup.
Peter SchragerXavier Restrepo will be the #3 receiver for the Titans and record 60 catches as an undrafted rookie
I watched a lot of Miami. I don't understand [how he didn't get drafted]... That guy makes a play every single time they throw it to him... Isaiah [Xavier] Restrepo is gonna be like the number three receiver and he'll have 60 catches and he'll be a great NFL player.
Peter SchragerBrandon Aiyuk and John Lynch's personal friendship will lead to a deal with the Niners
His agent's a guy named Ryan Williams... Ryan Williams and John Lynch are like lifelong buddies... John Lynch was at the wedding... at the end of the day, if those are the two people who are running the business operation in this situation, like they'll find a way to get Aiyuk dressed and with the Niners.
Peter SchragerJayden Daniels is the real deal and Commanders staff are obsessed with him
I talk to Cliff [Kingsbury] all the time... Everyone's happy... holy shit bro, like, they're talking like this guy is the real deal in Washington and Jayden Daniels has been everything they were hoping for and more in training camp.
Peter SchragerRussell Wilson will be the Week 1 starter for the Steelers
I think Russell Wilson. ...I just know that when they brought him in it was like they put tunnel vision on. They're like, Russell's our guy... I think the plan is Russell Wilson week one.
Peter SchragerThe Falcons drafted Michael Penix Jr. to avoid quarterback purgatory
This move to them ensures that no matter what happens in the next two to three years... they will not be in quarterback purgatory. They viewed Michael Penix as a top 10 prospect in this draft. They themselves do not see them being in the top 10 again now that they have Kirk Cousins.
Peter SchragerJalen Wright is the 'diamond in the rough' of the 2024 NFL draft
The running back on the Dolphins who they traded up to get in the fourth round, Jalen Wright out of Tennessee... This Jalen Wright averaged eight yards a carry at Tennessee is as fast as they come... That's my diamond in the rough.
Peter SchragerThe Chiefs will beat the 49ers in the Super Bowl
I just don't know how it happens. I don't know where it happens. But the Chiefs will win again because until I see Mahomes get knocked off his block, he's not losing and they're gonna beat the Niners.
Peter SchragerJustin Fields could fetch a first or second-round pick in a trade
I think [Justin Fields] could be either a first-round pick or a second-round pick. But if you're talking about a first-round pick, you're talking about a team that needs a quarterback... like the Falcons at the eighth pick.
Peter SchragerDave Canales will be the coach that saves Bryce Young in Carolina
Canales was not the lead dog in that room... but all along they wanted to go young offensive to get Bryce Young... what Canales did with [Baker] Mayfield was tremendous. I think that's a good fit.
Peter SchragerThe Ravens-Chiefs AFC Championship game will be a low-scoring defensive struggle
I actually think Chiefs-Ravens is a low scoring game. I think it's in the twenties... like 23-20. I think it's an amazing scene in Baltimore.
Peter SchragerA star wide receiver will be traded before the 2024 NFL Draft
I think one of these star wide receivers will be traded. And I'm saying that... when you look across the league, a Diggs and AJ Brown might not be traded, but those type of players... I think we get one of those big veteran trades.
Peter SchragerBryce Young is 90% likely to be the #1 pick for the Panthers
90% I would say right now as we record this, yes he's a panther, but crazy stuff does happen... but as of right now, Bryce Young's a panther.
Peter SchragerThe Texans might draft Tyree Wilson over Will Anderson at #2
The four down defensive lineman is Tyree Wilson, that's the guy. And the highest paid defensive line coach in the league is this guy Chris Kociurek... he's a Texas Tech guy. And he would know Tyree Wilson... I'm not just saying because one guy went to Alabama [Anderson], they're taking Will Anderson.
Peter SchragerJalen Carter will not fall out of the top 10 in the draft
I'd be shocked, shocked if Jalen Carter fell out of the top 10. The Seahawks at five, Jalen Carter's a perfect fit... You go right down to the Eagles at 10.
Peter SchragerThe Aaron Rodgers trade to the Jets will likely happen on Night 2 of the draft
They will get Rodgers, my prediction is night two, it probably goes down. And it might involve one of those, the 42nd or 43rd pick, which they have back to back.
Peter SchragerSean McVay is not leaving for TV and will return to coach the Rams next year
All the talk of him doing TV and all that shit, like he's in. This isn't how he's gonna be going down. He's at this crossroads of the season and his whole thing was like, I can't go out like this.
Peter SchragerTua Tagovailoa is a serious MVP candidate because voters are hungry for a new story
I think they're all hungry for something new and a great new storyline. So I think Tua... they rally around it. Mahomes could conceivably win it every single year, but people like new stories too.
Peter SchragerJustin Fields should be the #1 pick in a re-draft of the 2021 quarterback class
I think Fields is one. Fields is one, but solely cost... and they're finally building the offense around him obviously.
