What's up everybody? Welcome into the NextPats podcast. I'm Phil Perry, very psyched for this episode that we have for you on NextPats this week, partly because I am highly caffeinated, but also partly because we've got the great Mike Renner aboard.

Now with CBS, Renner has all kinds of intel on this year's Patriots draft class.

We're still diving deep on all of these guys.

Drake May especially.

And you're going to hear why Renner feels as though.

Drake May is a quote unquote perfect fit for this new Patriots offense under Alex Van Pelt,

this Kevin Stefansky, Gary Kubiak, Mike Shanahan offshoot.

Why is Drake May in particular an excellent fit, a perfect fit, as Renner describes him,

for this kind of scheme.

I think you're going to love that conversation on the other side of that conversation.

We're going to be talking Patriots OTAs, had the opportunity to watch our second Patriots OTA practice of the spring.

We've got all kinds of observations on Drake May and some other young players along the offensive line in the receiving court in the secondary.

We might be vying for that second cornerback spot

behind Christian Gonzalez.

But it's May that we're really going to focus on.

We're going to play a little game of ready or red shirt detailing for you all of our May

observations from this last practice.

But before we get to that, let's get right to this conversation with Mike Renner from CBS.

All right, there he is.

There's our friend Mike Renner, a newly minted employee of CBS Sports NFL draft analyst there.

Mike, it's your first day on the job.

And for some reason, you're spending it with us. So hopefully this doesn't get you in hot water with your new employer. I was going to say, does this make us competitors now? Should we be at odds? Should I hate you now, Phil, now that I'm at TV? Yes. Yes. You know what? That would be great for the podcast. If you could just come on and just dump on any take that I might share with you, because I'll be doing the same to you.
