He hosts The NFL Daily Podcast with a rotating cast of NFL Media personalities, and co-hosts 40s and Free Agents: NFL Draft Season. He's also a familiar voice from Around the NFL and has appeared on NFL GameDay View since 2019. His work here spans the full range of NFL coverage — draft position projections, game picks, player rankings, roster decisions — with particular attention to teams like the Patriots, Chargers, Lions, and Cowboys.

The MissedTakes Score is how much better than a naive baseline they did, not how often they were right. Zero means no better than a strategy requiring no knowledge. A record is counted in ARTICLES rather than individual calls, because thirty picks in one mock draft is one act of judgment rather than thirty.
