That being said, for the rest of today's edition, I will try to keep the April fooling to a minimum, but I can't promise anything.The April 1 jokes have been going crazy today with and fooling people into thinking with the . Neither of those things actually happened. Speaking of the Buccaneers, they have the highest projected win total in the NFL this year.

Today's show: NFL Draft needs for teams in the AFC and NFC NorthThe NFL Draft will be kicking off in le s than four weeks, which means you're going to be hearing a lot from our draft analysts from now until the start of the draft on April 28. Two of those draft analysts -- Josh Edwards and Chris Trapa so -- joined Will Brinson for Friday's episode of the Pick Six Podcast and the three of them spent nearly an hour talking about draft needs for each team in the AFC and NFC North. One thing they all agreed on: The need some wide receiver help."There are opportunities for them to take a wide receiver on Day 2 and po sibly conserve that second first-round pick, but I don't see anything wrong with them taking two wide receivers in the first round ," Edwards said. "This team has some needs, but far and away, wide receiver is the biggest need. I'm looking at a guy like Ohio State's Chris Olave or Arkansas' Treylon Burks."Edwards also mentioned Penn State's Jahan Dotson and Georgia's George Pickens as po sible targets for the Packers. One other name mentioned was North Dakota State's Christian Watson, who the Packers could go after if they want to wait until the second round to grab a receiver.The Packers also should be looking to target an offensive linemen, a tight end, a defensive tackle and a pa s rusher at some point in the draft. One thing to note is that the Packers have TWO first-round picks this year (No. 22 Conor Sheary Jersey and 28) thanks to the trade. If you want to hear the draft needs for the other three teams in the NFC North along with the four teams in the AFC North, you'll have to listen to today's show, which . You can . 2. Projected win totals for all 32 teamsThe oddsmakers in Las Vegas have released their win totals for the 2022 NFL season and in news that probably won't surprise you, and the Buccaneers are tied for the highest projected win total in the NFL. The Bucs have an Over/Under of 11.5 wins, which is tied with the .Here are a few nuggets from all the win totals.Lowest totals.The , and all have an Over/Under of five wins or le s, which is the lowest in the NFL. The Texans are in Year 2 of a rebuild and Jimmy Hayes Jersey the Jets are the Jets, so it isn't that surprising to see them so low. As for the Falcons, they just traded away their long-time franchise QB, so the oddsmakers in Vegas clearly aren't expecting much from them this year.No respect for Super Bowl teams. The two Super Bowl teams from 2021 aren't getting much respect. The (10.5) are tied for the fourth-highest projected win total while the (9.5) are tied for the 10th highest total.No respect for 2021 playoff teams.There are four playoff teams from last season who have an Over/Under lower than nine and those four teams are the (8.5), (8.5), (8.5) and (7.5). The Steelers make sense because they just lost . The Raiders win total is low because they play in the toughest division in the NFL, but as for the other two, the numbers for Philadelphia, and especially New England, feel low. I might just go ahead and bet the over on the both the Eagles and Patriots right now.Oddsmakers are high on the AFC West.There are nine teams with an Over/Under of 10 or more wins and the most notable part of that fact is that three of those nine teams are from the AFC West with the (10.5), (10) and (10) all having a double-digit win total. With an Over/Under of 8.5, the Raiders are the only AFC West team that didn't crack double digits.Here are the all win totals for all 32 teams from highest to lowest (win totals via Caesars Sports Book):Bills (11.5), Buccaneers (11.5), Packers (11.5), Chiefs (10.5), (10.5), Rams (10.5), (10), Chargers (10), Broncos (10), (9.5), Bengals (9.5), (9.5), (9.5), (9.5), (9), (8.5), Patriots (8.5), Raiders (8.5), Eagles (8.5), (8.5), Steelers (7.5), (7.5), (7.5), (7), (6.5), (6.5), (6.5), (6), (6), Falcons (5.5), Jets (5.5), Texans (4.5). Tyler Sullivan put together a list of bets bets for these Conor Sheary Women Jersey win totals and (Spoiler alert: He likes the Jets going over 5.5 wins). 3. Ranking divisions by their starting quarterbacksWhen it comes to quarterback movement, this has been arguably the craziest offseason in NFL history with Super Bowl winners (like ) changing teams and former NFL MVPs (like ) changing teams.The QB movement has shifted the balance of power in the NFL and nowhere is that more notable than the NFC South, which is now the worst QB division in the league, despite the fact that Tom Brady plays in it. How do I know the NFC South is the worst division? Because that's where it we had it this week when we decided to rank each division by starting quarterbacks.Cody Benjamin handled the ranking and here's how that ranking broke down:1. AFC West: , , , Ru sell Wilson2. AFC North: , , , 3. NFC North: , , , 4. NFC West: , , Trey Lance/Jimmy Garoppolo, (for now)5. AFC East: , , , 6. AFC South: Matt Ryan, , , 7. NFC East: , , , 8. NFC South: Tom Brady, , , The crazy thing about the NFC South is that Brady is the only current starting QB in the division who wasn't a top-three pick in the NFL Draft. Winston was the No. 1 overall pick in 2015, Mariota was the No. Pascal Dupuis Men Jersey 2 overall pick in the same year and Darnold was the No. 3 overall pick in 2018.
