Schwartz graded the draft team by team, giving Arizona an F for taking running back Jeremiah Love third overall (arguing he can't help them win in year one) and saying he would not have taken Keldrick Faulk in the first round. He also expects Washington to bounce back into playoff contention, and pegged Drew Allar as buried behind Aaron Rodgers, Will Howard and Mason Rudolph in Pittsburgh. On the NBA he picked the Lakers to finish off Houston, Atlanta to take a 3-1 lead on the Knicks, and Minnesota over Denver.
“Commanders feel like a bounce back team this year, like they're gonna be in playoff contention this year.”
