The Athletic Football Show: A show about the NFL

Idiot's Guide to the 2023 NFL Draft

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. It's the Idiot's Guide to the 2023 NFL Draft.
