Pat McAfee Show comes under fire for spoiling a first-round NFL Draft pick

The Pat McAfee Show has come under fire for spoiling a first-round NFL draft pick on Thursday, despite its cast knowing that it would 'ruffle' a few feathers by doing so. 

After it emerged that it was Miami's turn to be on the clock with the No. 21 overall pick, McAfee, whose 'The Pat McAfee Show Draft Spectacular' streamed on ESPN+, the ESPN app, YouTube and TikTok, immediately revealed that he would correctly predict who the Dolphins would select, and his co-hosts proceeded to give the audience a few clues tying back to Penn State edge rusher Chop Robinson. 

At one point, even former New England Patriots head coach Bill Belichick, who was a guest on McAfee's show only for draft night, said Robinson's name. 

Before Belichick could name drop, however, McAfee had initially said that no one could reveal Miami's selection on the show because there had been a 'little bit of ruffled feathers.' 

Ty Schmit, another panelist on McAfee's show, then said, 'F**k 'em,' followed by Connor Campbell, who goes by Boston Connor on the show, asking McAfee what he ate for dinner on Wednesday. 

'Did you have steak?' Campbell asked. 'Did you have chicken? Did you have pork chop, maybe?' 

McAfee then said that he prefers the end of the pork chop with another person on set describing that as the 'edge' area before Anthony DiGuilio, who's called Tone Digs on the show, dropped a very subtle hint.

'I think Mr. Robinson was the guy that served it to us,' he said, before the group started singing the Simon & Garfunkel song.

Roughly 10 seconds later, Belichick was yelled at by McAfee for predicting Robinson as the pick. 

'Don't you do that, Bill!' McAfee jokingly shouted at the 72-year-old, who replied: I was guessing, I was guessing!' 

Meanwhile, also on Thursday, Belichick revealed that he will appear on The McAfee Show weekly starting this fall, as he's yet to be hired for a head coaching vacancy this offseason. 

The six-time Super champion left the Patriots, who drafted former UNC QB Drake Maye on Thursday, after 24 years at the helm in January. Maye was this year's third overall pick.
