Today's show: Ranking receivers and tight ends in the draftWith the NFL Draft just nine days away, I don't think we're legally allowed to talk about anything but the draft on the podcast, so that's exactly what Will Brinson and Ryan Wilson did for Tuesday's show. Yesterday, Wilson gave us his full-seven round mock draft and since you're probably not done reading that yet -- I mean, it's 259 picks -- we decided not to overwhelm you for today's show.For this episode, Wilson and Brinson kept things simple by discu sing the top receivers and tight ends in the draft this year. Wilson started things off by listing his top 10 receivers and although you might know the obvious names like Ja'Marr Chase and Jaylen Waddle, this is a deep receiving cla s and there's going to be some serious talent available late in the first round and into the second round with guys like Rondale Moore (Purdue), Amari Rodgers (Clemson) and Tylan Wallace (Oklahoma State).Wilson also ranked tight ends during the podcast and let me just say that unlike the receiving cla s, this one isn't exactly deep.

Since then, it almost seems like teams have stopped taking phone calls because we haven't seen any other trades involving first-round picks. However, that could be changing in the coming days. With the draft inching closer, the trade rumors are now heating up.With that in mind, let's take a look at a few of the most recent rumors:Dolphins might make another trade. If the Dolphins' goal is to make more trades than any other team this year, they're on the right track. They've already made two and it seems that they're thinking about making at least one more. According , several teams have been calling the Dolphins about po sibly moving up to the sixth spot and Miami is to taking one of the deals and moving down in the draft.Eagles might make another trade. The Eagles originally had the sixth overall pick in the draft, but dropped down to 12th . Now, it seems Philadelphia has no plans to stay put.

Cowboys COO Stephen Jones about teams that want to trade into the top 10 .If all three of those teams were to make a trade on draft day, that would be three deals before we even got out of the top 10, which is my way of saying you better put the kids to bed early and get buckled in on draft night because things could get crazy.3. NFL Insider Willie Cauley-Stein Jersey notes: Are the definitely a lock to draft Zach Wilson?If there's one team picking in the top 10 of the NFL Draft that no one seems to be talking about this year, it's the New York Jets and that's because everyone seems to be a suming that they're going to select BYU quarterback Zach Wilson.

To.4. Steelers give Mike Tomlin three-year extensionAlthough there were some Steelers fans due to the way season ended last year, the team definitely wasn't listening to those fans and we know that because the Steelers awarded their longtime coach with a three-year extension on Tuesday. The new deal means that the 49-year-old Tomlin is now under contract in Pittsburgh through the 2024 season. The most interesting thing about the new deal is that it basically means Tomlin has agreed to stick around in a post-Ben Roethlisberger world. The 2021 season will likely be Big Ben's final year with the team and that means Tomlin will be on the hunt for a new quarterback.Although the 2020 season didn't end the way the Steelers wanted it to, the fact of the matter is that Tomlin has been one of the most succe sful coaches in the NFL for well over a decade. Here's a quick look at what he's done during his time in Pittsburgh:AFC North domination. In 14 seasons with the team, Tomlin has led the Steelers to nine playoff appearances, seven division titles and two Super Bowl appearances with one win. The Steelers have finished first or second in the division in 12 of Tomlin's 14 seasons with the team.Racking up wins. Tomlin has ama sed a total of 145 wins in his career, which is tied for the 21st most in NFL history. If Tomlin averages just NINE wins per season through the rest of his contract, that would move him into 11th all time.Never had losing record. In 14 seasons with the team, the Steelers have never finished under .500. Tomlin is one of only two coaches in NFL history -- along with Marty Schottenheimer -- to start a career with 14 non-losing seasons.Been around forever. Only two coaches in the NFL have been at their current job longer than Tomlin and those coaches are Bill Belichick (hired by the in 2000) and Sean Payton (hired by the in 2006).Tomlin is just the third Steelers head coach since the 1969 season, joining Hall of Famers Chuck Noll (1969-91) and Bill Cowher (1992-2006). To put that in perspective, the have had four coaches since 2018. Once Tomlin finishes the 2021 season, he'll have coached the Steelers longer than Cowher. 5. How the can have the perfect draft Between now and the start of the 2021 NFL Draft, we'll be going over how each team can pull off the perfect draft, and today, we're going to focus on the Jacksonville Jaguars.As you've probably heard by now, the Jaguars have the first overall pick in the draft this year and as long as Trevor Lawrence doesn't retire from football between now and April 29, there's basically a 197% chance that Jacksonville is going to draft him. The Lawrence pick is so easy that not even the Jaguars can botch it (At least I don't think they can botch it), which means the big question in Jacksonville is: What should the Jags do with the rest of their picks? That's where our Tyler Sullivan comes in. If the Jaguars want to have a perfect draft, they just need to follow Sullivan's simple plan Tyrese Haliburton Jersey below and that simple plan is to build around Lawrence.Emphasize protecting Lawrence with the 25th-overall pick.Take best-player available at 33.Use Day Two to add weapons for Lawrence.You can check out Sullivan's .

The Kicker: Rams will be drafting from a mansion in MalibuIf NFL teams learned one thing last year, it's that they don't have to conduct the draft from team headquarters. Due to the pandemic, every team was forced to draft from home in 2020 and apparently, the Rams liked drafting from home so much that they've decided to conduct this year's draft from a giant home in Malibu.The team and that's where they'll be situated for the draft this year. I'm not saying every team should rent out a mansion, but this is easily the best draft idea that any team has ever come up with. This monstrous house has an infinity pool, a bar and a perfect view of the pacific ocean. The best part for the Rams is that they don't even have a first-round pick this year so they can spend the first day of the draft lounging around in the pool and drinking pina coladas, which is what I would do every day if I lived in the house.Since I know you want to see pictures of the house, you can do that by and .By the way, Cody Benjamin will be your point man for the newsletter tomorrow and that's because I'll be spending the next 24 hours trying to figure out how to score an invite to the Rams' party house in Malibu.
