24 avr. 20231h 2m<p>It may not have seemed so at the time, but the power of hindsight lets us see that the Chiefs had one of the best drafts last year.

How might teams like the Bengals and Bills pull a 2022 Chiefs in this year's draft?

Idiot's Guide to the 2023 NFL Draft
27 mars 20231h 4m<p>The NFL schedule is demanding. So demanding, in fact, that someone who covers it as closely and passionately as, say, Robert Mays, doesn't have a ton of time to pay attention to college football. So on this episode of The Athletic Football Show, Robert turns to two of The Athletic's pillars of college football and NFL Draft knowledge, Andy Staples and Nick Baumgardner, for a much-needed education.
