Cecil says Dalvin’s game is very comparable to Edgerrin James, and the guys play out the scenario of Reuben Foster & Christian McCaffrey both being off the board at No. 20 overall.
Cecil Lammey joins the show to say Forrest Lamp was best at pass-blocking efficiency, and Zach asks about packaging the No. 20 overall pick & Aqib Talib to move up.

Watt if they sit at 20, and the guys discuss the chances Gareon Conley goes in the first round. First round talent could be easy to come by in a robust corner class, and Awuzie is the next one up after Conley.
