Guest Emory Hunt of @CBSSports and @FootballGameplan, the 'Czar of the Playbook,' joins Ep. 102 of the Talkin' Ball with Pat Leonard podcast @Bleav to dive into the entire NFL Draft prospect class, all the way down to potential small school undrafted free agent fits for the Giants. Hunt, whose Football Gameplan 2024 NFL Draft Prospect guide includes more than 1,000 individual prospect scouting reports, explains why he has Spencer Rattler ranked No. 3 among all the quarterbacks, says he thinks Drew Lock will beat out Daniel Jones for the starting quarterback job, and gives his Studs, Sleepers and UDFA fits at the Giants' biggest positions of need.
