Of course, we'll have all sorts of draft coverage. We are putting, I'm putting up some little draft nuggets throughout the week, have some videos going up on ESPN.com,

have stuff up all next week and we do have our ESPN mock draft i've already

submitted my pick and that that will air on tuesday so i will let you know on tuesday who i picked

and why because i do think there's some strong rationale for it.

But anyways, all that being said, today I'm going to talk about the case for taking a defensive

player at number seven.

So before I get there, there's just a couple things.

Like, as you know, the new uniforms will be out on or be unveiled at 10 a.m. on

Wednesday morning. I'll have a story up as well on for ESPN. And then I'll be doing other

podcast of doing every day this week. I'll be talking to Matt Miller from ESPN, one of our

draft analysts tomorrow. And then I'll be talking to Logan Paulson and getting

some stuff from him, and I'll be doing stuff all next week as well, and be doing stuff after

every round. So, I'm going to be heavy, heavy draft coverage over the next couple weeks,

but at least we're finally going to get a lot closer to who it is, and then finally will

know who exactly it was, and their potential impact.

So anyways, there you go.

Let's get into why I say, like, today, the case for the defense.

I will be doing a case for the offense, whether it's tomorrow or the next day, I'll be doing that very soon.
