May is the January of draft season, with the analysis on the 2016 NFL Draft still in full swing, though eyes have started to turn to the opening of camps in July for 2017 prospects as well. The May 19 Quick Kicks Podcast features hosts Mark Schofield and Chuck Zodda alongside Joe Marino of Draft Breakdown and NDT Scouting as they get a look at both drafts in this episode. Topics this show include:

- The injury to Shaq Lawson and how it impacts the Buffalo Bills heading into training camp and the 2016 season (3:56)
