NFL Draft Preview with Ryan McCrystal

On this episode of the Off The Charts Football Podcast, Mark Simon (@MarkASimonSays) and Matt Manocherian (@mattmano) welcome Ryan McCrystal (@Ryan_McCrystal) of Sharp Football Analysis to the show to preview the upcoming NFL Draft. The guys discuss Travon Walker as a potential top pick (0:31), how Ryan uses stats to evaluate OL prospects (4:56), which EDGE should go at the top (8:29), Sauce Gardner vs. Derek Stingley Jr. (10:24), using route-adjusted stats to learn more about WR potential (12:58), a stat that illustrates why there aren't any RBs worthy of a first-round pick (18:23), Desmond Ridder as QB1 (24:20), and a couple of team-specific fits (28:34).

We will have another episode this week after the first round, so look for that late Thursday night/early Friday morning. Thank you for listening.
