Ep. 1007 - It was just the start, but no less important. For the first time since the draft, the rookie class, including first-round pick Jeremiyah Love, was on the field, wearing Cardinals gear and doing football-related activities. It wasn’t a full-blown practice, but it did represent the first time this group of players experienced life in the NFL. Their college days are no more. Craig Grialou and Zach Gershman discuss what they saw and, more importantly, what they heard both on and off the field during rookie minicamp; from Love describing how he plans to handle his life-changing money to Carson Beck and head coach Mike LaFleur talking about the importance of a quarterback’s cadence. Plus, we now know when the 2026 schedule will be released.

Ep. 1006 - Best player in the draft. Path to be a starter. Day 1 starter at right guard. That’s how ESPN Draft Analyst Matt Miller described Jeremiyah Love, Carson Beck and Chase Bisontis, respectively. Miller rejoined Craig Grialou - the two first spoke back at the Scouting Combine in Indianapolis - to discuss why he believes Love’s talent should be considered on the same level as fellow running backs Saquon Barkley and Bijan Robinson, how a quarterback like Beck fits what Mike LaFleur wants to do offensively, and then there’s Bisontis, who Miller thinks could’ve heard his name called on Day 1 of the 2026 NFL Draft. Plus, Miller singles out defensive lineman Kaleb Proctor as one to watch among the Cardinals’ four picks on the final day of the draft. Enjoy the conversation, Bird Gang.
