It's finally here. We brought in Michael Kist (@MichaelKistNFL) of Bleeding Green Nation (yes, I know) and Inside the Pylon to chat about today's NFL Draft, the Eagles and the Vikings competing for slot cornerbacks, if Michigan defensive tackle Maurice Hurst's heart issues will cost him, ranking the interior offensive linemen, and what's the ONE player he'd be annoyed (as an Eagles fan) if the Vikings land.

Adding fuel to your NFL Draft Week flames, we brought in Friend of the Program Matt Waldman (@MattWaldman) of The Rookie Scouting Portfolio and Football Guys to break down the two polarizing quarterback prospects (Josh Allen and Lamar Jackson), give me a mid-late round tight end, wide receiver, and running back that could help the Minnesota Fightin' Vikings Day 3, and his FAVORITE skill position sleeper of the draft. Plus I open the show with some choice thoughts on Vikings general manager Rick Spielman.

The NFL Draft process can be a grueling one for the hundreds of young men who hope to hear their names being called at the end of April. For an insider's perspective, we brought in Kunle Ayinde (@Kingkunle4), former Minnesota Gophers defensive back and younger brother of Friend of the Program Yinka Ayinde. We chatted about his Gopher career, the preparation that goes into draft season, what his plans are if he goes undrafted, and what it would mean to him to slip on the hometown colors of the Minnesota Vikings.
