Summary

Live from the NFL Scouting Combine in Indianapolis where Rich reveals the top 5 prospects he’s looking forward to seeing most this week. CBS Sports’ Charles Davis and Rich discuss how the top of the NFL Draft could unfold after the Raiders’ “no-brainer” selection of Fernando Mendoza first overall, how high Notre Dame RB Jeremiyah Love could be selected in April, the Draft stock of Alabama QB Ty Simpson and Miami Hurricanes QB Carson Beck, and more. ESPN’s Matt Miller tells Rich which NFL Combine drill is the best indicator for a player’s success in the NFL, how presumptive #1 overall pick Fernando Mendoza measures up to past top QB draft prospects, breaks down the huge needs for teams like the Jets, Cardinals, Giants and Titans drafting in the top 5, if the Kansas City Chiefs could take Notre Dame RB Jeremiyah Love in the top 10, if Alabama QB Ty Simpson is 1st-round worthy, and more.
