The Ryan Rossillo Show is presented by DraftKings. On today's show, we go deep with the top part of the draft.

Ryen is joined by NFL Network’s Daniel Jeremiah from the Combine to discuss what we’ll learn in Indy about some of the biggest and most debated prospects, including who the top pass rusher is, how high Caleb Downs should be taken, and which players fit perfectly with certain teams.
