In this episode of The Herd with Colin Cowherd, the focus is on NFL Draft Week, with deep dives into team strategies, player evaluations, and bold trade ideas. Colin and guest Matt Hasselbeck analyze where Colin was right and wrong, highlighting the Celtics' dominance in the East, the Mets' struggles despite high payroll, and the importance of team culture over pure talent. The conversation shifts to the Giants' trade of Dexter Lawrence, with a compelling argument that Harbaugh’s arrival could reshape the franchise’s future. Hasselbeck shares insights from the Combine, emphasizing personality and film over combine metrics, and praises players like Jacoby Lane and Jordan Tyson. The episode also explores the Chiefs' potential to trade up for edge rusher David Bailey, the value of Trent Williams, and the impact of market size on player stardom, using Ant Edwards and Jalen Brunson as case studies. The segment closes with a humorous but insightful take on Raising Canes and the cultural significance of team location in sports.
Harbaugh’s arrival in New York could transform the Giants’ long-term strategy, making the 5th and 10th picks a rare opportunity to rebuild with elite talent.
Personality and film matter more than combine numbers—players like Jordan Tyson and Jacoby Lane stood out for their intangibles.
The Chiefs should consider trading up to draft David Bailey, solving their edge rusher need and adding star power to complement Kenneth Walker.
Market size significantly impacts player visibility, merch sales, and free agent appeal—Ant Edwards would be a top jersey seller in New York or LA.
Trent Williams is the most valuable non-quarterback in the NFL, with the 49ers being 40-15 when he plays and 3-10 when he doesn’t.

“I was shocked. The Bengals just don't do this. This is not what the Cincinnati Bengals organization does.”
Matt Hasselbeck on A.J. Brown, Harbaugh, and the Giants

Combine Insights: Personality Over Metrics
Hasselbeck shares observations from the Combine, emphasizing that personality and film are more important than 40-yard dash times, highlighting players like Jacoby Lane and Jordan Tyson.
“If you put Ant in New York, what do you think would go with his jersey sales? He's at six now. If he's in New York, he has the number one selling jersey in the league.”
“They're like a different offense playing, not playing.”
“The second highest payroll in baseball. The Mets have lost 11 straight. Worst team in baseball. Meanwhile, the low payroll A's, Guardians, Rays, Reds are playing great baseball.”
