Welcome back. It's the big blue banter. New York Giants football podcast. I'm Dan Schneier.

Joined as always my goal is Nick Vallado. And today is a fun day. We're finally into the range of our pre-draft podcast where I think Nick and I both would admit we have the most fun doing mock drafts, my guys things like that today is a dueling seven round

mock draft draft where both nick and i will be participating in a mock draft simulator but

different mock draft simulators we will draft a different team potentially or the same we don't know

yet for the new york giants and that's the fun part about today's dueling seven round mock draft

we will not be we have not done the draft already We will be recording it as it goes. So we will be playing out the simulator. We will be looking into trades if we want to trade. We're allowing trades. And we're just going to let this thing roll out and see how things go. And we will both talk over each of our picks based on how the mock draft simulators run out. We're both using the PFF mock draft simulator because we believe it is probably the most accurate of all the ones out there. But we have set the settings a little bit slightly different on each of ours so we can hopefully have different draft picks in this. But yeah, I mean, I'm very excited for this. For those of you who can see watching on YouTube, I'm recording from my happy place.

This is my happy place.

I'm actually here. I wish I was actually here. And that's Red Rocks. Yeah, that's Red Rocks. That's my happy place. It's the greatest place on Earth, literally, for me, at least. So it's going to be my background, maybe for a few of these. I'm going to keep switching it up.

Maybe that's a fun thing I'll do where I'll just change my virtual background every time.

Big on this virtual background thing, Nick, you know, you don't have to worry about as much of the setup behind you. You can just whatever's going on that day. You just, you know, whatever it is. I can have some fun with it. We'll start to do some fun things here. I understand that too, because I have a dog, a puppy, and he rips his toys up and he leaves fluff all over my freaking room, all over my studio. And sometimes I go into podcasts and if you look in the background, you'll see just white fluff just sitting there. And I'm like, damn, and I forgot to clean that up. He's still doing that? Oh, yeah, man. I get them toys that toy last like it'll last maybe a day he did he chew up that

three hundred dollar bed yet no or well he tries to hump it sometimes but i don't allow him to

obviously so no i wouldn't say that's chewed up okay that's good that's still uh you don't want to

buy something and have it immediately chewed up even if he's not really a fan of it yet, hopefully he'll come around to it.

He used to love it, but then he, this is like the funny thing. And you could draw a lot of parallels from this. He used to love it. And then I wasn't home. He found a way to hump it. And now he doesn't really fuck with the bed. I'm not a typical male right there, is it not? That's awesome stuff from your pup Phoenix.

All right, Nick,

let's let this thing roll out. typical mail right there is it not that's awesome stuff from your pup phoenix all right nick

let's let this thing roll out now let's get into this mock draft so you can you can make the pick

first your first round pick first and i would say talk through where the draft went with the first

24 picks before your pick if you're considering trading out of this pick, if you consider trading up at any point,

and then what pick you're going to make if you're staying at the pick and not trading the

pick.

Yeah.
