The boys are back together to reflect on the schedule, chat about a reunion in London, and early thoughts on OTAs. And James has a hot take!

The gang are back for a belated draft recap which includes:

• Sonny Styles and whether this becomes a “two-player draft”
• Whether Antonio Williams is last chance saloon for Peters on mid-round WRs
• The lingering concern at cornerback
• Brandon Aiyuk fatigue
• Some schedule chat and predictions

Plus: Lee gets VERY excited about an undrafted kicker from Iowa with a 58-yard school record on his résumé.

A lot of “wait and see” - but plenty to be excited about heading into preseason.

Draft day is here.

Josh opens this solo pod with a tribute to Sean Taylor, setting the tone for what a true defensive game-changer looks like, and why that’s exactly what Washington should be chasing at pick #7 in the 2026 NFL Draft.

From there, it’s three clear themes:

• What we want to happen – a blue-chip defensive star to anchor the future? Love?
• What we think will happen – realistic scenarios, including a likely pick in Caleb Downs
• Hot takes – bold predictions for both Washington and the wider league

Josh breaks down potential fits, draft strategy, trade-back scenarios, and why fixing the defense is critical to supporting the team’s long-term direction. He also calls out a possible move back into the top 100 and questions whether the league is overthinking this year’s receiver class.

Later, James and Lee join with their takes from London and Chicago to round out a full Hail on Three draft preview.

Enjoy the draft. Hail.
