What we learned from the 2024 NFL Combine

We break down everything we learned via the 2024 NFL Combine—from latest Detroit Lions rumors to our favorite draft prospects.

The NFL Combine has officially come to a close, and while I personally think the measurement portion of the weekend is hyped up well beyond its importance, there are plenty of important developments throughout the week.

On this week’s PODcast, we break down everything, from the rumors coming out of Indianapolis to the offensive and defensive prospects who helped and hurt their draft stock during the draft event. We discuss the players we think are the best culture fits for the Detroit Lions and debate some of the tricky decisions the Lions will face during the 2024 NFL Draft.

Here’s a full breakdown of topics on this week’s show, along with a timestamp to jump to those discussions.
