Welcome to the athletic football show.

I'm Robert Mays.

Great show for you guys today.

It's the middle of May, early June. Nothing's

really happening. But post-draft, all the big moves have been made, all of the dominoes that

were really looking at have fallen. And I think now is a good time. We did the show last year,

and I thought it was really useful, not for you guys, but mostly for me, to do a roster reset about where things stand. We're going to run through some of our favorite offseason, some of the position groups we like the most, some of the ones we're deeply worried about, of which there are several, just a good exercise to do at this point in the off season. I have two guests to help me do that today. First of all, it is my good friend.

Nate Tyson, Nate, how you doing, buddy?

Doing very well. As you started that, I was closing out some tabs, make sure the internet connection is okay.

And one of those tabs was the third quarterback rule.

Had to do a little CBN research.

That's the biggest news of the day.

That and Thursday night flexing, scheduling flexing. Sorry, fans. I think we're okay to do the roster reset. Yeah. I think we're going to be fine. I think it'll be okay. But that's the big news items when we're recording this just for perspective. But doing very, very, very well. And happy for our guest here today. It's going to be a fun show. Also joining us, a little home and home, I was on her podcast a couple weeks ago from the Mina Kimes show featuring Lenny on ESPN. It's Mina Kimes. Mina, how are you? Hi. I mean, I had to give takes on the emergency quarterback on Sports Center. So it must be nice, not having a way in on the owner's

meetings. So I was like, oh, man, Thursday night flex. Who, buddy. You were great on my podcast. I hope

people check it out. That was really, really fun. I actually went back and I wrote down your choices

because I was so interested in our. Oh, wow. It's very nice. I thought it was great. It's a very good exercise. And that's what this time in the off season is for. It's to kind of do these deep dives, kind of big picture perspective stuff on where some of these teams sit now that the dust has settled. And we're just going to get right into it. We've got like 15 or so categories here that I want to dig into.

We're talking about rosters as a whole, position groups, you know, certain moves we liked, all that kind of stuff. So let's start with the big one. The best roster in the NFL here in the first week of June. Mina, you are the guest here. Why don't you kick us off? I want to go first on all the positive ones and last on all the negative ones.
