Draft Dudes

It's time for the Game of Boards! Kyle and Joe take turns grilling each other on individual prospect assessments on each other's 2017 NFL Draft boards. Kyle and Joe each conducted three hundred assessments as part of their work for NDT Scouting's 2017 Premium content and the final results have the two with much to discuss. This special episode tips the scales at an hour and fifteen minutes as the two take a deep dive into their Composite Board and get into specifics of approximately twenty to thirty players eligible for the 2017 NFL Draft.

Kyle is joined by fellow FanRag Sports NFL Draft analyst Jon Ledyard to discuss the merits of cornerbacks with sloppy feet, notable technicians among this year's class, where it is easiest to identify true technicians at a respective position and much, much more. Jon Ledyard helped tackle the Inside the Pylon 2017 NFL Draft Guide and he also speaks about what the experience was like and the two discuss in room bias and how little the margins between player rankings can be at times.

Joe plays hooky; so Kyle takes questions from fans on Twitter. Topics range from Christian McCaffrey's potential as a top 10 player, an overrated and underrated prospect in the class, Takk McKinley's fluctuating narrative and more.

You know what time it is. The Dudes chill out at the water cooler to pass the time and things get a little hairy as Joe puts Kyle's final board to the fire. Kyle defends his stances on Ahkello Witherspoon and Solomon Thomas.

It's time for another SEC prospect with the Dudes. Joe Marino and NDT Scouting National Scout Roger Dixon Jr. speak at length with Florida LB Jarrad Davis. Davis goes in depth to discuss his legacy with the Florida program, who he modeled his game after coming up, his work ethic and how he wants his presence felt in every football game.

FanRag Sports' own Ethan Young joins Kyle and Joe to talk about his new SEMTEX model of production based predictive analytics for college Quarterbacks. Ethan's model debuted earlier this week at FanRag Sports and made waves for it's classifications for this year's NFL Draft prospects at the position. Ethan's model brings a significant level of historical data to back up his approach.

Welcome back to the water cooler! Joe and Kyle vent about the concept of "draft stock", recency bias and why the heck nobody is talking about Alabama's Eddie Jackson in this class of quality safety prospects. A future Madden league is also born as we find out Joe's sorry state of video gaming affairs.

Celebrate the start of another week closer to the NFL Draft with the Draft Dudes! Kyle and Joe are joined by Texas A&M Wide Receiver Josh Reynolds to talk about some of the differences between spread and pro sight adjustments and how he's grown as a receiver since entering the college ranks. Josh will have his Pro Day on Wednesday, March 29th.

Alabama Crimson Tide DE/OLB Tim Williams stops in to chat with the Draft Dudes about the art of rushing the passer. Tim shares with Kyle and Joe some of the specifics about his landmarks and mental process when approaching the line; as well as dishing on what the culture at Alabama was like under Coach Saban.

Shoot the breeze on hump day with the Dudes. Joe spills the beans on his experiences at the UNC Pro Day on 3/21 and offers some insight on "Mitch" vs. "Mitchell" Trubisky. Kyle and Joe also dig into some interesting rankings from NFL Network's Mike Mayock and discuss their tiers in this year's running back class. Bonus: Joe humiliates Kyle for his lack of knowledge on some classic 90's television.

Mondays are a drag. Unless they aren't. What's better than Kyle and Joe simulating a first round mock draft using their own personal boards to lift Monday out of the doldrums? Each selection is made live and the Dudes go "on the clock" to justify their selections to the fan base. All thirty two first round selections are covered: you don't want to miss this one!

Fridays are the best days, especially when you spend it with the #DraftDudes. Joe and Kyle dig into some hot takes from the past week of NFL Draft coverage, including the impact of Corey Davis not running a 40, what Deshaun Watson's peak velocity of 49 mph at the Combine means and if John Ross is *REALLY* WR1 (nah). Join the Dudes and kick the weekend off right.

It's hump day, so spend your thirty minute water break shooting the breeze at the water cooler for #WaterCoolerWednesday with the Dudes! Joe makes a triumphant return to the show; he and Kyle discuss their efforts in keeping up with the 2017 Class and discuss some notable thoughts they've come across in doing so. The Dudes shoot from the hip, there's no script today and the takes fly free.

NDT Scouting Director of Scouting Kyle Crabbs flies solo and talks through each of the Top 10 prospects on his 2017 NFL Draft board. Kyle also peels back a handful of names he's been high on throughout the process that are lower than he expected, a credit to some of the checks and balances his draft evaluation process has put into place.

The Draft Dudes are back again to pound the table/pump the brakes on another four of the top Quarterback prospects in the 2017 NFL Draft. This time around Kyle and Joe make their case for Deshaun Watson, Nathan Peterman, Davis Webb and Jerod Evans before playing devil's advocate as to why each is a questionable investment.
