Listening to these two guys talking sets my teeth on edge, even though there is really good stuff in this podcast, people they like and don't like.

What I don't like is Andy Herman agreeing with Ben Fennell on, well, everything.

Where is the disagreement, the conflicting view on a prospect ? I don't want to listen to the Fennell appreciation society, I want Herman to have his own views........ and from what I'm hearing that just isn't happening.

In short, very interesting podcast, but it's ok to disagree sometimes.

Thanks for listening, and I appreciate the feedback. Ultimately I didn't disagree with too much Ben had to say... had I, I probably would have at least brought up a differing point of view. Ultimately, you get to hear my takes every Monday, but when I have a guest on like Ben, my job is to ask questions and let him do his thing.

It's difficult not to agree with Ben Fennell on most of his takes - as his 'deeper dive' analysis is atypical of the usual made-for-media mock drafts and opinions. And I think his draft board is closer to Team boards than our amateur offerings. It seemed that A.H. may have agreed with everything from B.F. but I attribute it to professional courtesy and respect. There definitely was a difference of opinion about Ezra Cleveland - which is A.H's. choice at 30 while B.F. opined him as a 2/3 round pick (I also am not that high on Cleveland). In all, B.F. comments were certainly thought-provoking - which was facilitated by A.H. - which really was his primary role in this podcast.

I have been downplaying the Claypools and Pittmans of the world. I've no interest in the Alshon Jeffrey clones. AR doesn't throw contested balls. That skillset is not that useful in GB.

I also appreciate noting that GB was 0-4 against teams that scored 25 points. GB needs to be able to win shootouts as well. I think GB is one dynamic WR (plus depth) away from having a terrific offense.

I wouldn't hate taking Josh Jones at pick 30, but I wouldn't love it. I'd be aghast at taking Austin Jackson at 30, or moving up into the teens or early twenties to take Jones, or worse, Jackson. I don't like taking Cleveland at 30 because it is a reach. I like Cleveland in the mid to late second.
