LISTEN TO HOUR ONE HERE!

In the first hour, DMac and Tyler discuss Major League Baseball’s proposal to centralize games in the Phoenix area and condense its season. Could the NHL, NBA and NFL follow suit? Would a season of “Hard Knocks” featuring two teams be more compelling? DMac tips his hat to Dana White for his outside-the-box thinking.

LISTEN TO HOUR TWO HERE!

In the second hour, DMac explains why he disagrees with Adam Schefter’s tweet regarding the success rate of first-round quarterbacks. The guys compare and contrast mock drafts from Daniel Jeremiah and Conor Orr and play out various first-round scenarios for the Broncos. Tyler even lays out a scenario for the Broncos to trade up from the 15th pick. DMac gives his thoughts on how and when Major League Baseball could start their season. Nicki Jhabvala, our fan Broncos Insider joins the show to give her thoughts on DMac’s quarterback formula and what it will take for leagues to safely resume playing this year.

LISTEN TO HOUR THREE HERE!

In the third hour, DMac and Tyler discuss the latest round of Fan Challenge videos posted by their fellow hosts. Tyler reveals a few of his hidden talents. Could Major League Baseball find a way to resume activity next month? The guys debate whether or not the Broncos could benefit from investing a mid-to-late round pick on Arizona QB Khalil Tate in the upcoming draft.

LISTEN TO HOUR FOUR HERE!

In the fourth hour, DMac and Tyler debate how concerned NFL general managers should be about data breaches during the upcoming draft. Tyler applauded the Cowboys for their decision to reveal part of their pre-draft interview process. Are the 49ers the team the Broncos should trade up with in the first round of the draft? The guys discuss if there’s a way to play sports on a private island and resume activity during the COVID-19 quarantine. Our Broncos insider Nicki Jhabvala joined the show and gave her thoughts on DMac’s quarterback formula.Tyler asked Nicki if the NFL could possibly follow Major League Baseball’s lead and explore having the league play in one condensed location.
