In the debut episode of the Go Long Podcast with Tyler Dunne & Jim Monos, the hosts relive the 2017 NFL Draft in great detail. Joined later by ex-Bills GM Doug Whaley, who will be a regular guest, all three crack open a few beers and meticulously break down just how close the Bills were to drafting Mahomes and changing the NFL forever. Yes, owner Terry Pegula fell in love with Patrick Mahomes. Yes, the Bills made out pretty damn well with Josh Allen, who had his best game of the season against the 49ers. They dig deep into it all with stories from the scouting trail (Mahomes' workout was insane), the draft war room (it was intense) and even the morning both ex-Bills execs were fired (it was raining). And looking back, both Monos and Whaley recall the former college football champion they coveted as head coach, too. Expect behind-the-scenes stories you've never heard before every week right here.
