Welcome to the athletic football show.

0:17.7

I'm Robert Mays.

0:18.4

Joining us today.

It is the senior NFL insider at The Athletic. Diana, how are you? I am good. I'm Robert Mays. Joining us today. It is the senior NFL insider at the

0:21.4

athletic. Diana, how are you? I am good. I'm well. I'm excited. I went for a walk at a park

0:29.1

yesterday with a neighbor of mine who knows nothing about football. And I spoke the entire time.

0:34.9

We pushed our strollers about this upcoming draft. And he didn't say much

0:40.4

afterwards, but that's okay. He knows everything, though. He knows every single thing that I know.

0:45.3

He's actually the person we should have on the show. But I will say I've been listening to a lot of the

0:49.2

shows and I've heard about this mustache that you've got rocking. I hadn't seen it yet. I am a fan. I would like to put that on the record. I think you need to keep this thing. I really appreciate that. You're making my decision even harder. I'm going to keep it until we at least all get together in Detroit a little bit later. I know you won't be joining us, but you will be joining us live via satellite. I don't think that's how the technology works.

1:12.6

I like that. But you will be joining us during our live shows on Thursday and Friday. For people who have not heard about this, we are doing our NFL draft shows live from Detroit. Not with an audience. I want to be clear about that. There's been a little bit of confusion. It'll not be with an audience, but it will be with me, Nate, and Dane, breaking down,

1:32.8

reacting to every single pick from the first three rounds on Thursday and Friday night. We're

1:38.0

going to have some special guests popping in and out. You are going to be one of those very

1:41.8

special guests joining us, giving us some insight on some of the bigger moves that may happen over those couple nights. So we are very excited for you to be joining us. And you guys, the listeners, we're very excited for all of you to come hang out with us Thursday, Friday night, live on YouTube, the athletic NFL YouTube channel. I'll be talking about it all week. I'll be tweeting about it all week. If you miss it, I screwed up. But just keep it on your radar because we are very, very excited about this. All right. Let's get into it. What we wanted to do today after, you know, a month or so of mostly prospect-centric analysis is kind of what I would say we've

2:20.4

been doing a lot of on this show with Dana Nate and then also digging into some specific team

2:24.5

needs. We haven't done a lot of scuttlebutt. Who might be moving? Why might they be moving?

2:29.3

What's going to happen? And that's why it was a perfect timing in my mind to bring you on to do this.

2:34.1

We're going to do this.

2:41.4

We're going to do a little what Diana's hearing now that we are about 72 hours removed from the draft here.

2:43.5

Let's start with what really matters.

And that is the quarterbacks and where they might be going.
