Episode 58 - The NFL Draft and a little Fake News

April 25, 2017

Episode 58 brings the Butcher Shop Podcast to their 3rd Annual NFL Draft Preview with NFL expert, Ryan Early. Ryan takes us through his mock draft but not without a little dissection of the news sweeping the NFL.
First, Donald Trump is tweeting inaccuracies of crowd size once again but this time it is about the perfunctory visit of this year’s Super Bowl Champion, New England Patriots.
Over half the team declined the visit for various reasons but that didn’t stop a Trump twitter tirade that the contingent was in any way smaller than the Patriot visit to Barack Obama in 2015.

Then Ryan gives an already disproven theory as to why Aaron Hernandez took his own life this week ending the book on one of the most talented but troubled tight ends in NFL History.

Let’s just say he didn’t go out like D’ Angelo Barksdale…

And then, we talk about how 2017’s NFL Draft crop doesn’t yield any sure things at the quarterback or offensive line positions, as Ryan and Johnny argue whether or not Jimmy Garoppolo is worth trading away for a chance at Myles Garret.

All of that and even more NFL intrigue on Episode 58.
