Episode Synopsis

The Saints just gave tight end Juwan Johnson a 3-year, $31 million contract. Ummm, why? Is he really worth that? Is that the going rate for a tight end these days?

Host Jim Derry gets into it quickly on Wednesday’s Dattitude Podcast (Ep. 351) presented by Evangeline Securities. Also, a certain well-known ESPN draft dude has a ridiculous mock out there – at least when it comes to the Black and Gold, so we expose the absurdity. (Maybe Jim is just jealous of this guy’s hair?)

It’s the day before the (real) start of the NCAA Tournament, so we are joined by the most underrated college expert on the planet, and that’s CBS Sportsline’s Thomas Casale, who shares his best bets and potential upsets. And on Wednesdays with Gabe Henderson, we have NCAA trends that might serve as a warning on who to stay away from with your Final Four picks and whom our listeners should be targeting.
