First, Colin explains the likelihood of Zach Wilson or Trey Lance finding NFL success at a second stop if they’re eventually dealt.

Then, Colin is joined by 3 and Out podcast Host John Middlekauff to discuss if the Cowboys making their offense ‘Dak friendly’ proves they have doubts about their QB, if the Rams are closer to picking Caleb Williams than a return to the playoffs, if Baker Mayfield is better off retiring than starting a second act of his NFL career as a backup, if Trey Lance is the odd man out with the Niners, if signs point to Jordan Love underwhelming as the Packers starter, if move off Love for a QB in the loaded upcoming Draft, if Belichick could pull a surprise trade for disgruntled Colts RB Jonathan Taylor, and John’s biggest Week 1 upset prediction.
