Summary

Marcas Grant and LaQuan Jones open the show detailing their expectations for the Steelers offense, second year WR Keon Coleman and the crowded running back room in Arizona. (2:46)

Next, the guys share some advice for drafting the running back position and explain which rounds and players fall into the ‘dead zone.’ Which running back rooms are the scariest to draft from and how will journeymen RB’s impact their early-round counterparts? (19:11)

After the break, Marcas and LQ take a look at the ‘dead zone’ for wide receivers. With plenty of value to be found elsewhere, who are their 'stay away' wide receivers at various points of the draft? (33:42)
