Summary
Mac Jones seems to be the main prospect in this draft class that you HAVE to take a side on. You're either for him or against him and Ryan Wilson could be labeled as one of his biggest supporters. On this episode Ryan joins Will Brinson to break down why he has been so high on Jones throughout the entire draft process and why ultimately he should be considered a better prospect than Tua Tagovailoa was last year. Listen for an in-depth breakdown of the Alabama product and what will translate to the next level. The guys also evaluate where he could land in the draft and it seems more and more likely he'll be the target for the 49ers at #3.

| 0:13.4 | sports daily NFL podcast. I'm Will Brinson. I'm your host and this is one of our quarter |
| 0:19.3 | back deep dive profiles. If you're listening this Thursday morning, and we're going to talk |
| 0:26.1 | about Mac Jones with the biggest Mac Jones stand, there is the one the only Ryan Wilson. |
| 0:32.2 | By the way, we're breaking down the top four quarterbacks coming up. Will's it? What's |
| 0:36.0 | up? Do you know, um, Mac Jones's middle name? Oh, you know what I think I do. Isn't it |
| 0:43.4 | like, it's like, uh, it's very Caucasian. Well, it's very fitting for the way that he |
| 0:50.0 | is viewed. Is it, is it like Humphrey or something like that? Well, Mac stands for |
| 0:55.0 | McCorkl. McCorkl. That's like McCorkl. It's like McCorkl. Dingleberry Jones or something |
| 0:59.9 | like Mike McCorkl Jones. Oh, McCorkl is his middle name. That's exactly. If he was |
| 1:05.8 | Mike Jones, would people like him better? Well, they didn't like Mac Jones even before they |
| 1:10.7 | knew what Max was short for. So I don't know. No, that's not saying if he's Mike Jones would |

| 1:28.0 | He can't have a two. I can't have a worse body than Mac Jones. You see Mac Jones with |
| 1:31.5 | a shirt off, right? I mean, who cares? You got a little baby fat, a little dad bod? Because |
| 1:35.5 | he's 23. What's going to look like a 30, 33? Well, if he's playing for your team for ten |
| 1:39.9 | years, you're in good shape. I don't know. Like, right? It was too as tiny. Give me a talk |
