It feels so good having smart people run this franchise

Yeah - like I said, Royals may have the toughest path to playing time. Just depends on how his game translates.
With the D1 guys, you can get a better feel for how quickly they can play up. Royals is harder to project.
If you ignore the quality of competition, he shows a lot of the same traits Burden shows that could make him useful immediately. Not as much of 'em - even against lesser competition he doesn't show the hands, body control or physicality of Burden. But the quickness through cuts, ball tracking and YAC ability are there.
We'll see. Long-term he can play the X. But that requires a bit more projection.
Gillotte may take longer than we hope as well. He'll have to come up with a plan apart from speed to power. May get some snaps here and there but it's gonna take a bit, IMO.
