Summary
Sheil starts the pod by giving his instant reactions to the blockbuster trade that sent DT Dexter Lawrence to the Cincinnati Bengals. He's then joined by The Ringer’s own Steven Ruiz, Diante Lee, and Austin Gayle, who get together to implement the first part of a big group mock of the moves they think each NFL team will make (including trades) on day one of the 2026 draft.
