We have officially entered 'silly season' of NFL Draft week where rumors are rampant and everything must be taken with a grain of salt. Fear not, Matt Harmon and Fantasy Pro's Thor Nystrom are here to cut through the smoke. Concluding our 'teams that will shape the Draft' series, the two look at the QB needy teams outside the top ten - Minnesota, Denver, Las Vegas - as well as teams inside the top ten that could be wild cards - New York Giants, Tennessee Titans and New York Jets.

To start the show, Harmon and Nystrom dive into the Minnesota Vikings and what possibilities exist for them to jump in the draft to take JJ McCarthy or Drake Maye. The duo looks at how the top QBs could fit in Kevin O'Connell's offense and Justin Jefferson.

The two then try to make sense of the Denver Broncos after they acquired Zach Wilson from the New York Jets in a trade. Given that Denver might have the worst QB room in the league, the duo try to figure out which rookie QB is the most realistic option and best fit for Sean Payton's scheme. The two discuss Bo Nix's potential in Denver and if they can trade down and still acquire the Oregon QB later in the draft.

Harmon and Nystrom have a similar conversation about the Las Vegas Raiders QB room and if they could be a dark horse team to trade up for QB. After the break the two try to predict what the New York Giants, New York Jets and Tennessee Titans do with their top ten picks.

Draft week has arrived and with that comes our final installment of 'Mock Draft Mondays'. We go out with a bang as The Athletic's Dane Brugler joins Matt Harmon to share his five favorite picks in his latest seven-round mock draft. Yes, Brugler doesn't just put together 'The Beast' but a seven round mock. Everything you need to get ready for Thursday night.

Brugler starts the pod by sharing a pick the Bengals make in the first round that helps solidify the spine of their defense. Brugler has Texas DT Bryon Murphy going to Cincinnati with the 18th pick. He explains what makes Murphy worth the pick in the first round.

Brugler then shares two more first round picks he likes for the Pittsburgh Steelers and Detroit Lions. He has Duke OL Graham Barton going to Pittsburgh and explains why the Blue Devil is a natural fit for the franchise. Brugler then has one of his favorite sleepers, Western Michigan EDGE Marshawn Kneeland, going to Detroit to help Aidan Hutchinson with their pass rush.

The duo then end the pod with Brugler's spiciest picks. He has the Indianapolis Colts snagging Florida WR Ricky Pearsall in the second round to complete their WR room and re-pairs Anthony Richardson with his former college teammate. Brugler then has Texas RB Jonathon Brooks heading to Dallas in the second round to become the immediate RB1 once he is 100%. Brugler also shares who he has Dallas taking in the first round and why it could be a boom-or-bust pick.

We are just one week away from all the projections, rumors and lies from being put to rest. The Draft is almost there. We put a bow on our 'Draft Deep Dive' series with Yahoo's draft guru Charles McDonald by looking at the top TE and OL prospects in this year's draft.

Of course we can't begin anywhere else than looking at Georgia TE Brock Bowers and what type of impact he could make instantly in the NFL. McDonald and Harmon dive into what makes him a unique talent at the TE position and worthy of being a top ten pick.

McDonald, a Georgia fan, recaps his illustrious career in Athens and what team fits could get the most out of him at the next level. Harmon wonders if some teams won't know how to use him and if that could lead to him sliding out of the top ten in the draft.

The duo then look at day two TEs that could develop into starters in the NFL. After the break Harmon and McDonald look at the top ten OL prospects list from Nate Tice and dissect what makes each a first round talent. Harmon and McDonald agree that the OL position might be the deepest in top tier talent of any position this year.

What do the Bills, Bengals, Packers, Rams and 49ers have in common? They are all contenders with 10 plus picks in this year's draft. Rotogrinders' Jordan Vanek joins Matt Harmon for the latest installment of our 'Teams that will shape the Draft' series to look at how each contender can maximize their plethora of picks next week.

But first, the two start the pod by reacting to the Philadelphia Eagles extending WR Devonta Smith. Both believe it's money well spent but have concerns if the Eagles offense can truly maximize the WRs talents in their current offense with Jalen Hurts at the helm.

The two then identify the six teams in this year's draft that have ten plus picks. Harmon believes five of the six teams are serious contenders next year and can use their picks to put them over the top. The duo starts by looking at how the Buffalo Bills plan on ushering in this new Josh Allen era without Stefon Diggs and Gabe Davis. The two then look at how the Bengals can make the most of the last potential ride withthe trio of Burrow, Chase and Higgins.

After the break, the two look at how the Green Bay Packers and L.A. Rams can build off of last year's momentum with great draft classes this year. Harmon and Vanek end the show looking at what the 49ers and Cardinals will do with their ten plus picks.

Daniel Jeremiah joins Matt Harmon to discuss his mock draft methodology, what he's hearing about this year's draft class and shares his favorite five picks in his latest mock draft.

To start the pod, Jeremiah discuss what goes into crafting his mock drafts and how much he prioritizes what he's hearing from teams over his own personal assessment of players. Jeremiah gives his take on the QB class and if we really can see as many as six QBs go in the first round.

Jeremiah than shares his five favorite picks from his latest mock draft including having the Chicago Bears take Washington standout WR Rome Odunze with their second first round pick to pair with Caleb Williams.

Matt Harmon and Charles McDonald their 'Draft Deep Dive' series by taking a look at arguably the most loaded position in this year's draft: The wide receivers. Given how many notable prospects are in this class we decided to break the position series into two parts. Part one looks at most of the prospects that will likely go in the first two days of the draft.

But before diving into this year's WR class the two react to one of the biggest WR moves of the offseason, as the Buffalo Bills traded Stefon Diggs to the Houston Texans in exchange for a 2024 2nd round pick. Harmon and McDonald look at the fantasy ripple effect for both teams as well as how this could impact the Bills decisions in this year's draft. Both believe the Bills could get aggressive early in the draft to try and land one of the top WR prospects.

Speaking of those WR prospects, Harmon reveals the 8 guys he's studied the most heading into the draft. The two start by looking at the 'top 3' tier and if anything separates Marvin Harrison, Malik Nabers and Rome Odunze. Harmon and McDonald also attempt to identify which would be the best fits for each of the WRs.

To end the show, Harmon and McDonald look at 5 other WR prospects that could go in the first round or be top end picks in the second round. Harmon also identifies his favorite day two sleeper at the WR .

We continue our 'Teams that will shape the Draft' series by looking at three teams - Cardinals, Chargers, Falcons- in the top 10 who have a settled QB situation, but could play a major role in potentially trading with other teams who could be looking for a rookie QB early. The Athletic's Robert Mays joins Matt Harmon to breakdown how these teams can best leverage their unique situations.

Harmon and Mays first look at the Arizona Cardinals who hold the No. 4 pick in the draft as well as ten other picks in the draft. The duo debate if it makes sense for the Cardinals to stay at four and take the best WR prospect available or if they could still grab one if they trade down. The two discuss if the Cardinals are one good draft away from being a contender in the NFC.

The two then discuss the Los Angeles Chargers who hold the No. 5 pick and eight other picks. Harmon and Mays discuss if we should buy into Jim Harbaugh's comments about the importance of the offensive line. The two then debate if the Chargers should embrace a full rebuild given the state of their roster. Mays also wonders what the trade market and value would be for the No. 5 pick if the top four picks are QB.

To end the show the two look at the Atlanta Falcons and what they need to do with the No. 8 pick now that they have Kirk Cousins as their QB in 2024. The two agree the path to contention in the NFC for the Falcons is real. Harmon is over the moon about Drake London's potential in 2024. Mays ponders if a team built the way the Falcons are can actually win a Super Bowl.

2:50 - Teams that shape the Draft: Teams in top 10 who don't need a QB

4:00 - Arizona Cardinals: Stay at No. 4 and take a WR or trade back?

22:55 - L.A. Chargers: Does this team need to accept they're in a full rebuild? + What's trade market for No. 5 pick?

44:30 - Atlanta Falcons: Time to invest in defense? + Are they ready to contend?
