Prime Cuts - Cowboys Crush The Draft, Did Rams Reach For Simpson? The Myth Of Michael Jordan, LIV Golf Goes Belly Up

Colin's top takes of the week. First, he's joined by John Middlekauff, host of "3 and Out" to break down the NFL Draft. They begin by discussing the backlash to the Bears taking speedster Zayvian Johnson and Colin explains that if any coach picked him, it may not be a great pick…but with Ben Johnson as coach it can work (2:30). They move to the Rams & Colin argues that while their draft won't grade well… outside of Ty Simpson, the Rams are drafting for the near term while they still have Matt Stafford and John believes Simpson wasn't talented enough to justify the 13th pick (8:30) and Colin lauds the Cowboys for focusing on improving their defense as well by getting the steal of the draft in Caleb Downs (13:30). Then, Colin is joined by legendary sportswriter, commentator and the Director of Sports Journalism at Northwestern University, J.A. Adande to talk about his new sports podcast with Chuck Todd called "Dynastic", which does deep dives into some of the most legendary franchises in sports history. They begin with the LIV Tour looking like it's going belly up and why it wasn't treated seriously by the broadcast networks & sports media. They discuss the questionable ethics of LIV being funded by the Saudi Arabian sovereign wealth fund and the potential of that type of money flowing into the coffers of other American sports leagues (21:30). Finally, they discuss the longstanding MJ vs LeBron debate and compare the major differences in the eras they play in, and J.A. explains that there were two different eras of Michael Jordan and how Jordan eventually became trapped by his fame (28:30).
