Summary: We’re just under two months away from the NFL Draft, and there’s prospect talk galore in this week’s marathon episode, as Thor Nystrom (@thorku), the lead college football and NFL Draft analyst for NBC Sports Edge (formerly Rotoworld) joins host Pat Fitzmaurice (Fitz_FF). Thor explains why criticism of Justin Fields’ field-reading ability is unfair, why Trevor Lawrence is the best prospect he’s ever evaluated, why Trey Lance is such a fascinating test case, why Zach Wilson is tricky to evaluate, and why Mac Jones reminds him of a less athletic Andy Dalton. Thor’s No. 1 running back isn’t Alabama’s Najee Harris or Clemson’s Travis Etienne, but rather North Carolina Tarheel Javonte Williams. Thor sings Javonte’s praises, takes a closer look at Harris and Etienne, and makes a case for Rhamondre Stevenson as an underrated prospect. Thor also offers a detailed analysis of University of Minnesota WR Rashod Bateman, and he and Pat discuss their mutual appreciation of Purdue’s Rondale Moore. Pat and Thor also discuss what Kyle Pitts’ NFL future might hold, and Thor speculates on what no Scouting Combine, shortened college seasons for some teams and opt-out seasons for some players might mean for this year’s draft.
