Summary

John begins by breaking down why the transfer portal has been so valuable to college footballs, not just monetarily, but for improving their draft stock and points to Cam Ward being the likely #1 overall pick as the poster child.

He reacts to Rams star wide receiver Puka Nacua announcing that he wants to retire from football at age 30 and wonders if this will become a common trend among younger players going forward.

He explains why college wrestlers, not football players are the toughest guys on campus, and discusses the challenges faced by the Tennessee Titans when scouting and selecting the next face of their franchise with the #1 overall pick.

Finally, he answers listeners questions in the Middlekauff Mailbag and hits topics whether Ashton Jeanty is too short to be a top pick, whether Kyler Murray has reached his ceiling, what traits to look for when drafting interior offensive linemen and more!
