Bootleg Summer Series rolls on today with our in-depth look at the Ravens. Baltimore is poised to bounce back in a big way this season, and their "new" head coach is the biggest factor behind fans' optimism this year:
Big Blue rules the roost today on the Bootleg Summer Preview Series. Can Jackson Dart lead this talented, young playmaking trio back to the NFL playoffs? Are all NYG's high draft picks on defense going to swing the NFCE in their favor? You've got questions, we've got answers:
It's Patriots day on the Bootleg Summer Preview Series. NE was a revelation last season under new head coach Mike Vrabel, but now everyone will be expecting them. Can Drake Maye and this talented group repeat a run to the big game, or will the league catch up with them this year?
It's Bills day on the Bootleg Preview Series on YouTube (and Spotify video this year), but if you're sly and you've signed up for BZZR... the Patriots episode is already live over there. 👀
Sometimes, what you do and where you came from intersect in a very particular way. Today is one of those days.
90k. Could not have made it here without all of you. Deeply appreciate your support of what we do. ...but we're not done yet. We're pushing to break 100k by the end of the Summer Series. If you're not already subscribed: fix that! If you are, share Bootleg with a friend.🎁
It's Dolphins day on the Bootleg Summer Preview Series. While you may think this team is just down on its luck and doomed to a pile of losses, we're digging a little deeper to find some of the silver linings that MIA might be using to build a foundation for future success.
The Bootleg Summer Series kicks off on YouTube (and Spotify video!) today. If you missed the early premiere on @BZZROfficial yesterday, you can watch it today. Buckle up: we're rolling through every team in the NFL over the next 8 weeks.
I’ve begun drinking in earnest ahead of England vs. Mexico. Regardless of the result, it feels like the appropriate approach.
You know what’s better than just coffee? Coffee + Blue Thunder. 10/10, would recommend.
Merry Draftsmas Eve! As is tradition, we'll be live on the Bootleg YouTube channel tonight at 4 pm PT / 7 pm ET for a couple of hours. Bring a beverage and your favorite draft takes/questions/wishcasts/etc. and celebrate with us!
Occasionally, Terion Stewart (RB, Virginia Tech) just randomly buries a DB on the field. *BOOM*
🏈 for your Sunday: New Bluechip Committee episode: we're tackling the classic football chicken & egg question: Grab the QB & build around them, or build the team & then get the QB. Plus: players we are ⬆️ (and ⬇️) on than the consensus, and tools we love for draft prep. Might be the best one yet!
Headed home after the pro day and 3.5 hours north of Eugene I hit this: socked in, 50 degrees, and pouring. Stayed just like this all the way home another 1.5 hours). If you don't like Spring weather in the PNW, don't worry: it’ll change.
Oregon’s pro day in Eugene had great weather, clear & sunny, 60+ degree temps:
Traveling for work isn't all wine & roses… but it does have it’s moments. Sunrise in OR:
Back on the road this week: At Washington's pro day on Monday and at Oregon's on Tuesday. Excited to see both of these groups in person and catch up with the West Coast area scouts, making their final swing through for this draft season.
New Bluechip Committee podcast dropping tomorrow (on the Bootleg Football channel). This time we're diving into the age-old debate: how to attack BPA vs. Need. Plus: favorite performances from the Combine and answering fan questions. 2 hours of top-shelf draft content incoming!
NFL Combine: done and done. Thanks again for the amazing hospitality, Indy. See you next year.
I know Keionte Scott (CB, Miami) ended his college career as a Hurricane, and that's cool and all... ...but he started off his college football journey as a Snow Badger (Snow Community College in UT), and I'll tell you what: this is some elite mascot work right here.
Another notable line from my early report on Joly (say: Joh-lee): "Feels like a very high percentage of his receptions end up with him looking like a wildebeest getting dragged down by like 5 lions." Mess with the beast, get the horns.
