| 0:00.0 | What up, everybody? It's Beltway Football, J.B. Finley, Mitch Tishler. They got us in kind of our own little studio. |
| 0:05.4 | Are we allowed to call? Are we allowed to, like, lay claim to this? It's our studio. |
| 0:08.3 | All right. It is now. The draft is over. They've added a bunch of undrafted free agents. You know, we were kind of live potting throughout the weekend, but now that we know how this class has landed, it's widely, it's been regarded pretty well. |
| 0:22.7 | I'd say the grades as relevant or irrelevant as draft grades possibly are have been pretty good. |
| 0:28.8 | Sonny Stiles is the headliner. |
| 0:30.7 | Stiles, Antonio Williams, Joshua Josephs, Ketron Allen, the fat man, Matt Goldman, Mitch's favorite pick, and Aethin Calliak Manis, the |
| 0:38.7 | quarterback out of Rutgers. That's your six draft picks. The Greek rifle, baby. You're |

| 1:35.4 | Let me ask you, outside of wide receiver, what was the other obvious hold that this team had? |
| 1:40.2 | Corner. |
| 1:41.0 | Corner. |
| 1:41.8 | But we knew, we talked to Thor earlier in the offseason right before, right before the combine. |
