The QB Draft

Author: The Athletic May 26, 2026 Duration: 48:48
Ralph, Stew, and Bruce draft their top five quarterbacks for a season-long competition. Rotisserie scoring, three categories: total yards, total TDs minus interceptions, and wins. Who went first overall? Who went undrafted? Where did Chambliss, Manning, and Maiava go? Plus, Sark takes shots at Texas Tech, and Coach O returns to Baton Rouge.
