I don't see much of a gap for that kind of outcome. I mean, I guess if he's just healthy but not very good...thats where you land.
But mostly this looks ENTIRELY boom or bust. And damn, that is just so so so rare in the 1st round. Most of the time there's a floor in place that mitigates the risks associated with taking a guy in the top 50 picks or so. The Trey Smiths of the world with no floor to speak of go on day 3.
This sure looks like a 'no floor' player taking where it's just damn rare to see them taken.

I don't disagree, but maybe when you have to pick 30 plus every year, this is the dice roll you have to take.
