• Draft analyst Todd McShay dove into Drew Mestemaker’s game – focusing on his processing and underrated athleticism: 

“This guy’s brain is pretty developed, I think, for a first-year starter. If I wanted to be obvious, I could talk about the arm strength. I think he’s got a live arm, but I think to me what stood out that I wasn’t really expecting was how smart he is.”

They both also noted that Mestemaker was more athletic than they initially anticipated. McShay said he had to go back and keep updating his notes the more he watched of him. [PFB]
