Good morning, everybody. Welcome to another episode of Hock Blogger Mornings. I am Brian

Nemhauser and I'm happy to be with you here on a Thursday morning. If you missed Real

Hawk Talk last night, you should go and check it out stacey rost evan hill dana o'gorman

and i all hung out last night we talked about all sorts of stuff some of it related to football

some of it not so if you need a little break from all just the pure football talk we had some fun

yesterday and you should you should check that out uh You know, good time with Stacy as always.

Today's a special episode though, because I do this once a year ahead of the draft

where I go through and lay bare the reality of what John Schneider does in the draft and what he does not do.

And there's a lot of kind of casual conversation out there about,

hey, let's just, this is what John Schneider does. This is the truth about what he does

that I kind of see and sometimes challenge, but we're going to talk about the reality. And some

of it is going to be different than what you would expect.

We're also going to talk about this in a way where I'm going to tell you the good and I'm going to tell you the bad.

These are going to be facts.

These aren't going to be. I'm going to tell you some of my analysis as well.

But the goal here is to give you the facts and let you kind of make some assessment

about what you think of that information. Now, I planned to do this show yesterday and I was going to

give you a bunch of visuals. I thought about, I tried to start this morning doing more visuals.

And you know what? I just realized it wasn't worth it.

You're going to get to stare at my face. I might show you some stuff in a spreadsheet here now and then,

but I'm going to talk you through a lot of these things. We're going to have a little bit of fun too.

We're going to play some guessing games along the way. No prizes, unfortunately, other than bragging rights.
