Description: Hour 1:  Kap & J. Hood discussed that the Bears did not receive compensatory draft picks for the departure of executive Ian Cunningham to become general manager of the Falcons, even after both teams advocated that the NFL should award them. The league released its final list of compensatory picks for the upcoming draft and gave 33 of them to 15 teams, leaving the Bears out. As part of the NFL’s push for diversity, a team receives two third-round picks if a minority staff member is hired by another team as general manager. However, the league considers Falcons president of football Matt Ryan to be the organization’s “primary football executive,” not Cunningham.
