NFL Scouts do more than ANYONE gives them credit for - so when it comes time to evaluate the most important position in football, QB, the on-field traits are just a (small) piece of the overall puzzle. So, where do these 2025 NFL Draft prospects line up and is there context for where similar guys went last year?

If your team is looking for its next head coach, should they look at defensive coordinators? Absolutely - the right person should get the job. But along with that job, evaluation of the future OC better be happening as well.

When players like Ohio State's Arvell Reese take over the national draft scene, it can be easy to fall in love and just say Yes! But good scouts will ask questions in the process, and even try to talk themselves out of the player. This practice leads to better, more complete scouting reports and ensures every stone has been turned.

There is always smoke come NFL trade deadline time - but where that smoke comes from is always a question. Teams on each side, agents and of course, those in the media that just make things up. Being in a building you quiet the noise - do your work - and let those in bigger seats make the moves.

Never too early to start talking about ALL the players that could be a part of the 2026 NFL Draft. So Neil and I bring on one of the best in the business, The Athletic's Lead Draft Analyst Dane Brugler. From the QB's we thought would be there to the ones who have risen to the top, pass catchers to pass protectors, edge rushers and cover guys to the unicorn and favorite of Brugler. We cover a ton of ground from first round scenarios to who we expect to have their name called.

Finding your next Head Coach is not always just about the sexy play caller or the guy with the right Alma Mater. Fit, culture and expectation matters as well. Today I talk about what some of those major components are, how you should be looking at them and how using your scouting resources should be a major funnel in the process.
