Colin’s joined by Nick Wright, host of “First Thing’s First” on FS1

They start with the breaking news of Stefon Diggs getting a massive contract with the Patriots.  Colin offers his theory that Pats coach Mike Vrabel was willing to overpay Diggs after he struggled coaching the Titans after A.J. Brown was traded, but Nick offers some pushback (3:30).

They move to Russell Wilson signing with the Giants and whether that means the Giants are signaling their intention to pass on drafting Shedeur Sanders, whether they think he’ll be gone by pick #3 (9:30). 

They talk about the mediocrity of the Steelers as a franchise for the past several years and why they need a fresh start without Mike Tomlin (25:00). They also break down why the Dallas Cowboys overpaying Dak Prescott should offer a cautionary tale to the 49ers about paying Brock Purdy top dollar (32:15). 

They discuss Rams star wide receiver Puka Nacua announcing his intentions to retire by age 30 and discuss why going public with that information does NOTHING to help him (43:45), and why locking in a particular mindset can make the difference between success or failure (53:30) .  

Finally, they compare and contrast the big brands vs mid-majors in college basketball and Colin explains why he isn’t enough of a “nerd” to watch smaller schools and why only a few college basketball teams are even watchable (1:14:00). They wrap up with some banter over professional gamblers vs. the amateurs (1:23:45).

John begins by breaking down why the transfer portal has been so valuable to college footballs, not just monetarily, but for improving their draft stock and points to Cam Ward being the likely #1 overall pick as the poster child.

He reacts to Rams star wide receiver Puka Nacua announcing that he wants to retire from football at age 30 and wonders if this will become a common trend among younger players going forward.

He explains why college wrestlers, not football players are the toughest guys on campus, and discusses the challenges faced by the Tennessee Titans when scouting and selecting the next face of their franchise with the #1 overall pick.

Finally, he answers listeners questions in the Middlekauff Mailbag and hits topics whether Ashton Jeanty is too short to be a top pick, whether Kyler Murray has reached his ceiling, what traits to look for when drafting interior offensive linemen and more!
