All right, welcome into the edition of the first draft podcast and a reminder that the

podcast is available every Tuesday at 4 p.m. Eastern time to check us out on the ESPN

YouTube page if you're into video as well.

It is me and Mel Kuiper Jr. Todd, McShay will be joining us in just a little bit.

Mel, I need to start the show with some news and I'm not talking about Carson Wentz.

We'll get to that in a moment, but it has been brought to my attention

that your title at ESPN has recently changed and I wanted to gauge your thoughts on this matter.

You are now ESPN's senior NFL draft analyst moving out from just the NFL draft analyst.

How do you feel about this? No, I don't know how to feel right now. I think when you look at

starting at ESPN when I was 23 now being nearly 61, a senior is a good, where's Todd?

What's Todd's new title? Is what I'd be talking about. Todd is also a senior NFL draft analyst.

Yes, he is. Todd is 20 years younger than me. See, I guess if I'm in the same league with Todd

as a senior, I feel pretty good because we kind of, where do we start senior at 40 now?

I'd maybe at 40. Yeah. How old do you feel? I'm 33, so I got some work to do before I get to

the senior experience there, but I think with Matt Miller and certainly with Jim Nagy and the

young guys coming in, hey, we love all having all those guys in. I feel pretty good. The

survive really feels really 61, starting at 23. See, covering the gamut, seeing everything

at 11 between now and then. I guess it's an honor. I'll say it's an honor to be called a senior

draft, whatever. I know that's what everybody would have called me.

No surprise, Mel, that you take it all in stride. One of your many hallmarked trades,

but love having our senior. Why is there any other way to do it, Phil?

No, well, but others would not be as gracious as you are with this appointment of senior status.
