Aidan Hutchinson is the best player in the 2022 NFL Draft

I just keep going back to the fact like you just got off the Urban Meyer rollercoaster, like let's just take, take Aidan Hutchinson, just put it right in the middle of the fairway here. ... I think he's the best player in the draft personally.

While subjective, Hutchinson won Defensive Rookie of the Year and has been a Pro Bowl-caliber player, arguably the most productive from that class early on.

Once you hit your 30s, you are never going to experience ten days with no pain

The rule is 10 days with no pain [for Ben Simmons to return]. I got news for you, buddy. Once you hit your thirties, you're never going to experience 10 days with no pain. It's just constant pain.

While hyperbolized for comedy, the general sentiment of chronic aches in one's 30s is a widely shared subjective experience.

Jason Tatum is as good as Kevin Durant right now in their respective careers

I thought that going into it, when we talked to Russillo, I was like, everyone's talking about Kevin Durant. Is there a chance that Jayson Tatum is just as good as Kevin Durant right now in their respective careers? Cause obviously Kevin Durant's a little older, a lot of injuries. Like this series, [Tatum] has been the better player. Not even, that's not even debatable offensive and defense.

The Celtics swept the Nets and Tatum outscored Durant while defending him heavily. Tatum went on to make 1st Team All-NBA that year.

I am officially putting my stamp on it: the Celtics are for real

Game two is when I just realized that the Celtics are for real, I'm not officially putting my stamp on it. That's a PFT stamp. The Celtics are for real.

The Celtics went on to make the NBA Finals in 2022, proving they were indeed 'for real'.

AJ Brown will be a New England Patriot next year

The AJ Brown to New England is just—I mean, everybody in the league's thought this is, you know, whether or not it's done or not. But the expectation from everybody that I talked to is that he'll be a Patriot next year.

This depends on off-season transactions in 2026.

The 2026 running back class is the worst in ten years

One of the teams I talked to, this is the worst running back draft in 10 years. In the last five years, on average there have been 21 running backs get drafted. The highest number I got for draftable players from a team was eight, one of them was six. There's no backs.

Daniel Jeremiah claimed the 2026 running back class would be the worst in 10 years, with teams projecting 6-8 draftable players compared to an average of 21. The 2026 NFL Draft saw 13 running backs selected, which is significantly lower than the 21-player average, supporting the assessment of a weak class, even though it exceeded the lowest projections.

It's 90-95% likely Shedeur Sanders goes second overall to Cleveland

The way it was kind of put to me is like, I feel, you know, 90, 95% sure that it's Bailey, but I know I've been throwing this long enough that if it's not a hundred percent, it's not a hundred percent. So it feels like it's Bailey at two. But when we're on the clock and we're on the set there, we don't know for sure if that's Bailey or not.

Shedeur Sanders was not taken #2 overall by Cleveland — he fell significantly in the 2026 NFL Draft, which was one of the biggest surprises of draft night.
