Marc and John go live from Indianapolis with an extended Nick Caserio sit-down and Andrew Siciliano interview on Combine Day 1. CJ Stroud, free agency and more. Marc Vandermeer and John Harris open Combine Week live from Radio Row in Indianapolis with two marquee interviews. First, an extended sit-down with Texans GM Nick Caserio that goes well beyond his earlier podium session — covering everything from the vest-vs-hoodie debate to his free agency preparation process, his mentorship philosophy with coveted staffers like James Lipford and Dino Vasso, and the non-negotiable traits for a Houston Texan ("If you're a defensive player especially, physicality and violence are non-negotiable"). Caserio reaffirms his confidence in C.J. Stroud, reveals the team improved dramatically at quarterback from 2024 to 2025 across nearly every statistical category, details how his pro scouting department — DJ, Steve Cargile, Nate Lipford, and Chris Blanco — has already built the free agent board by position, and explains the rapid-fire reality of legal tampering where "players are going to come off the board" the instant the window opens. In a lighter moment, Caserio reveals he'd choose the gauntlet drill if GMs had to compete at the Combine, and admits his Indianapolis dinner was Panera soup and salad. The second guest is Andrew Siciliano, voice of the Cleveland Browns and the original NFL Network Red Zone host, who provides an entertaining AFC North breakdown. Siciliano shares the challenge of calling Myles Garrett's record-breaking sack in real time, reveals the Browns may go tackle-tackle with picks 6 and 24 to rebuild an offensive line where nearly every starter is a free agent, and discusses the Shedeur Sanders quarterback situation. He and the hosts debate training camp length, the inevitability of 18-game seasons with a 9:30 AM Eastern kickoff window for international games, and the UFL's new four-point rule for 60-plus yard field goals. The show closes with John's Combine workout predictions — Dylan Thedeman (Oregon safety) testing through the roof, Brandon Thompson (Mississippi State WR) as a speed demon, Jeremiah Love solidifying his top-8 status, and Arvell Reese (Ohio State LB) showcasing his freakish athleticism.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
