ar Von Miller going back to Texas A&M to hang out with and interview Myles Garrett. That will air on the first night. Mayock also goes back to his alma mater (Boston College) to talk to John Johnson. Reporter Andrea Kremer has an interview airing on Friday with Texas running back D'Onta Foreman Giants Kareem Martin Jersey , who played through unimaginable personal pain and tragedy.

• When I asked The NFL Network why Michael Irvin will not be a part of this year's coverage, a spokesperson responded with: “Given the Philadelphia/Rocky connection, we decided to have Carl Weathers cover the Red Carpet for NFL Network.” Last year, Irvin worked the NFL Draft Red Carpet Special.

2017 NFL Draft Big Board: SI's top 40 prospects
• The opening round of last year’s NFL Network coverage drew 2,039,000 viewers, up 12% from 1.82 million in 2015. That was impressive given ESPN’s drop and it pointed to people (at least in small numbers) shifting from ESPN to The NFL Network. Of course Authentic Tommy Hunter Jersey , WWE Smackdown beat the NFL Network (2.1 million to 2.039 million) on Day One, so it's good to keep things in perspective. The NFL Network’s Day Two draft coverage last year was the most-watched ever coverage for Day Two on the network.

One final note: One of the better ways to consume the NFL draft is via SiriusXM NFL Radio (channel 88 on satellite radios and on the SiriusXM app). It’ll air every pick from every round, live from Philadelphia. The host is Jason Horowitz, with analysts Gil Brandt, Pat Kirwan, Jim Miller and Phil Savage. Sirius said former NFL wide receiver Torry Holt will makes his debut as a SiriusXM analyst next week on SiriusXM Fantasy Sports Radio. He will also work on SiriusXM NFL Radio during the year. Fox Sports Radio will be broadcasting live throughout the entire first round on Thursday, from the Hard Rock Cafe in downtown Philadelphia. Jay Glazer Broncos Su'a Cravens Jersey , Joel Klatt and Chris Spielman will work the broadcast for FSR.

(SI.com examines some of the week’s most notable sports media stories)

1. Episode 114 of the Sports Illustrated Media podcast features sports broadcaster Kevin Harlan, who works for multiple outlets including Turner Sports, CBS Sports and Westwood One.

In this podcast, Harlan discusses preparing to call multiple series in multiple cities for TNT during the NBA playoffs; why the NFL is the hardest of the major sports to cover; why he thinks Doc Emrick is best suited for quick-twitch sports; how he morphed from calling Kansas City-area sports (Chiefs, Kings and Kansas athletics) to a national job; whether it’s good to be known for catchphrases such as “no regard for human life;” the reality of knowing he will never call an NBA Finals or a Super Bowl on television; the advice he gave his daughter Olivia, who works for ESPN and travels with the Atlanta Hawks for Fox Sports Southeast; how he’d approach calling the games of Olivia’s boyfriend (Sam Dekker, who plays for the Rockets); how he adjusts to new partners; the differences regarding the networks he works for; growing in up in Green Bay as the son of Packers CEO Bob Harlan; his now famous call from Sept. 2016 of a fan running onto the field during a Monday Night Football game between the 49ers and Rams; why he remains not altogether comfortable with doing that call; his fondness for Doug Collins http://www.cincinnatibengalsteamonline.com/malik-jefferson-jersey , and much more.

2. This is a great piece by Anthony Crupi of Ad Age that takes you inside how sports networks pitch to advertisers. In this case, Crupi shadowed Fox Sports on its barnstorming tour of the country's top media-buying agencies. He highlights Fox Sports president Eric Shanks selling the Cowboys and Packers brands (Fox owns the NFC package) as well as Fox Sports kicking off its six-year, $1.44 billion deal with the Big Ten Conference this year. Fox now has the annual Ohio State-Michigan game and the Big Ten football championship game in December. “Their message is 'We own the fall,' so it makes sense for Fox to lean hard on the stuff that really delivers,” one TV buyer told Crupi. “Leave out sports and you're left with a bunch of sizzle reels for new shows that probably won't rate. And that's true across the board.”

Another interesting note: Shanks said in a bid to siphon off English-speaking Hispanic viewers from Telemundo, Fox will cover the Mexican national squad “as if it's a second home team” during the lead-up to the 2018 World Cup. Fox has previously said it is betting big on soccer Browns Denzel Ward Jersey , which it believes can be a major TV sport given the demographics.

2a. The MMQB’s Peter King did his annual piece on how the NFL schedule is made. Worth reading for sports media observers.

3. The noted baseball analyst and writer Keith Law has a new book out Tuesday titled Smart Baseball. The book aims to explain what numbers in baseball actually work, and explores what the rise of Big Data means for the future of the sport. A longtime ESPN analyst, I floated Law some sports media.
