3 & Out - NFL Post Draft Reaction: Steel...

iHeartPodcasts and The Volume
About this episode

On this episode of 3 & Out, John Middlekauff breaks down the Pittsburgh Steelers’ draft and what their selections say about the team’s direction moving forward. Did they do enough to stay competitive in a loaded AFC, or are there still major questions to answer?

John also revisits the Rams’ decision to take Ty Simpson, diving into how he fits in Los Angeles and what the pick means for the future of the franchise.

Plus, a full look at the San Francisco 49ers’ draft—how they approached their roster needs and whether they did enough to keep their Super Bowl window wide open.

Later, the SEC once again leads the way with the most players selected in the NFL Draft. John discusses what continues to separate the conference and why it remains the premier pipeline to the league.

From certain team breakdowns to big-picture draft trends, it’s all covered on this episode of 3 & Out.
