The Cardinals taking Jeremiah Love when they have a million roster holes was the wrong call

Arve Reese falling all the way to five — with the Cardinals taking Jeremiah Love. Anytime you have a million holes and you can add a running back, you gotta do it.

The Giants had a great draft — Burns, Abdul Carter, Arve Reese and a right tackle to protect Jackson Dart is a loaded haul

I love what the Giants did because the Giants now, they could probably trade Thibodaux. They have Burns, Abdul Carter and Arve Reese. And then they got an offensive lineman to hopefully protect Jackson Dart.

Subjective evaluation of draft quality that will play out over years.

Caleb Downs was the best overall player in the 2026 draft

Caleb Downs was my favorite player in this draft. I have to, like, as of the end of this day, I have to move on and pretend that I've always hated Caleb Downs [now that he's a Cowboy], but I thought he was the best player in the draft.

Downs' career trajectory compared to other 2026 draftees will determine this, but it's a bold claim for a safety/defender.

The Brewers' pressure created their 'lucky' breaks

That's not luck. That's just the Brewers and what they did to you mentally, where it's like you have to be perfect and almost made teams just become a worse version of themselves because of what the Brewers were doing to them.

This is an evaluative baseball argument rather than a claim with one definitive result.

The Bears are building around Jeffrey Simmons correctly

Jeffrey Simmons is an absolute game wrecker. Top three at his position, changes everyone around him. The Bears had a weakness in their defense, especially run defense. They made it a strength.

The assessment of Simmons' impact and positional ranking is partly subjective and will depend on his Chicago performance.
