Summary
In the latest episode, Bucky Brooks is joined by draft analyst Lance Zierlein for a deep dive into some of the biggest storylines across the NFL. The duo kicks things off with the New York Jets’ bold moves, securing their core by making Sauce Gardner the highest-paid cornerback in NFL history and locking in Garrett Wilson with a new extension. Bucky and Lance break down how these signings are helping the Jets shape a true team identity. Then, the conversation shifts to the recently released Top 10 Quarterbacks list, voted on by execs, coaches, and scouts, with the guys giving their honest reactions to the rankings. Finally, they explore the ripple effect of the Texans giving second-round pick Jayden Higgins a fully guaranteed contract, and how it’s led to an unusual number of unsigned second-rounders across the league.
