Jennings on never letting anyone else define you, because if you let them, they will (7:50).

A true renaissance man, Rashad explains why he’s training to be a premarital counselor in order to heal communities (16:26). A 7th round pick out of Liberty University, Rashad weighs in with advice for those approaching this year’s NFL Draft in a similar situation (21:52).

This is show #350 ... in which we get rare access ... to peek inside the NFL War Room ... what's really going on in the final days before the draft?

INSIDE THE NFL WAR ROOM

Marc takes us behind the closed (often locked & closely guarded) doors where NFL draft decisions are being made 
How heated does it get?
How does a team of NFL Scouts & Coaches & GMs & owners ... reach consensus?
Who has the final say?

ART OF DECEPTION

How much of what we hear from NFL GMs these days is truth? 
& how much of it ... is well-crafted fabrication?
We'll ask those questions ... as we address recent comments from a few NFL execs 

PERFECT DRAFT 101
What's the best strategy - building AROUND a rookie QB ... or building FOR a future QB?
Are QB prospects ... OVERDRAFTED?
What position is OVERLOOKED?
What SHOULD & what WILL happen with the Bears @1 ... the Commanders @ 2 ... the Patriots @3 ... & the Giants @6?
What 2 NFL teams are the best at drafting talent?
