🏈 The 2024 NFL draft order is set! 🏈 My Minnesota Vikings got the 11th pick, and boy did they need that spot in the draft! They experienced numerous setbacks, disadvantages, and barriers in the 2023 season so they need extra resources for next year. Thank goodness for the NFL draft, a system that was put in place to ensure a level playing field. Despite teams performing poorly and having a losing record, they get the best draft picks. The highest performing teams, on the other hand, get the lowest draft picks. It's the antithesis of a merit-based system. In fact, it's an equitable system! "Wait, wut....? Did you say equity?! That can't be right. I love football, but I'm against DEI!" Let's be clear: The anti-DEI crowd doesn't have a problem with equity. They have a problem with who is benefitting from equitable systems. #equity #systems #dei Alt text in photo.

PUSHING THE BOUNDARIES If you missed it, Patrick Mahomes tossed a behind the back pass to Travis Kelce in a preseason game this week versus the Detroit Lions. While entertaining, it also wasn't totally surprising because we've watched Mahomes do this a couple of times in practice at this point. When asked about it, he's stated he'd love to do it in a real game, but only if it makes sense versus the defense they are playing. He's also said he wants to continue to push the limits of what we expect a QB can do. The reason it's so fun to watch Patrick Mahomes is not just because he's been so successful but he's willing to try new things. He knows some of it will fail and he also tends to test it in practice before putting it on display on gameday. What's the new and innovative thing you are working on right now?? What is that thing that will make people stop and say "wow." The gameplan is in place for a reason, but sometimes a big play can change the momentum for your business, team, and morale. #checkcover3 #recruiting #transportationindustry

Note: language if offensive to you. Mike McDaniel is a TRUE leader. Listen to him take responsibility for his errors and how it impacted his team. Listen to him discuss how to correct and take action on those errors. THIS is why his team follows him loyally and why the Miami Dolphins (not even my team BTW) are just going to keep becoming greater. THIS is what leadership is all about. #leadership #mikemcdaniel Miami Dolphins and Hard Rock Stadium #loyalty #growthmindset ▶️ Watch this reel
