Episode 12 - Ready for the Draft 2019 Podcast Series

Readyforthedraft.com's Gregg Schutze shares his passion for the NFL draft and takes you on a journey leading up to the 2019 NFL Draft.

Episode 12 starts by taking a look at how Week 10 affected the College Football Playoff.  With LSU's loss to Alabama, Notre Dame an Michigan are behind Alabama and Clemson with Georiga and Oklahoma the first two teams out.  Gregg notes that Tua Tagovailoa has put up insane stats on the year while just playing in three quarters.  However, while he's the odds-on favorite for the Heisman Trophy, could it be argued that fellow QB's and likely Heisman finalists Kyler Murray and Will Grier are more valuable to their teams?

Gregg also talks quarterbacks for the 2019 Draft.   Ryan Finley, Drew Lock and Will Grier are the front runners at the top of the draft class.  Gregg also removed all underclassmen from his rankings until January when we know exactly who will be entering the draft.  However, he does discuss why he feels Justin Herbert, Dwayne Haskins, Nate Stanley and Jarrett Stidham would all benefit from another year in school.  If there is an underclassmen likely to enter the draft, it may be Tyree Jackson, who has led the Buffalo Bulls to an 8-1 record.

The Wide Receiver class doesn't have the depth at the top in terms of viable 1st Round candidates, but the depth is in Day 2 and early Day 3 wideouts.  While Marquise Brown, A.J. Brown and N'Keal Harry get all the hype at the top of the draft class, Kelvin Harmon is quickly emerging as a legitimate 1st Round candidate.  Hakeem Butler and JJ Arcega-Whiteside are bringing the basketball mentality to the football field, while the Texas duo of Lil'Jordan Humphrey and Collin Johnson show of a tremendous catch radius., while David Sills V has a knack for finding the end zone.  Buffalo's Anthony Johnson announced he's back with a huge game against Miami, OH.  Gregg also mentions sleeper WR picks Preston Williams, Jonathan Duhart and Andy Isabella, all of whom are potential Day 3 picks who have a chance to make an NFL Roster.
