Robert Mays and Derrik Klassen dig into the mailbag one more time before the 2025 NFL Draft on this episode of The Athletic Football Show. Can one division support as much head coaching talent as the NFC North has? Should teams be wary about giving out top-of-the-market extensions to players at non-premium positions? Who were your favorite running backs to watch play? The guys answer those questions, and a whole lot more.

Rundown

  • NFC North loaded at head coach
  • What's the easiest position for a world-class athlete who has never seen football to play?
  • Giving top-of-the-market extensions to players at non-premium positions
  • Should we expect Jayden Daniels to regress along the same lines as CJ Stroud?
  • Teams that are good/bad at drafting
  • Use of the fifth-year option affecting draft decisions
  • Should teams consider division opponents in team-building process
  • Should teams think about second-year players who had huge rookie seasons?
  • What are the most fun "caution-to-the-wind" picks that could happen this year?
  • Who were your favorite running backs to watch play?
