I wonder what happened with him. Maybe the shoulder is still a mess and he couldn't practice like he wanted to?
I never heard one media person mention anything positive about him on the field during training camp other than there was a long line of guys in front of him. |

I was told by old men in cargo shorts and goatees that Kamal Hadden was the real deal at training camp. Wonder what went wrong

I loved the pick. No clue what happened.

Not sure I'm getting this troll shit about people thinking Hadden was amazeballs.
People were optimistic about the pick because it's Veach and Hadden is a late round DB. So people dug around and found favorable tweets from randos on the internet. I don't know anybody who was specifically rooting for this guy over the other DBs or thought he had more to offer than anybody else. People just wanted the best players on the team, and if that included Hadden, cool. If not, then whatevs... hope the players they chose instead are really good. Really weird reaction to have. |

His measurables made us think we found another Sneed.
And then nobody else ever mentioned him again |

Never understood the pick. The guy is overrated. He was never really good at Tennessee.

3rd day picks, fellas.
Don't expect too much from them and you might not be let down. There's just no reason to put a bar in place for these guys. 6th and 7th rounders are marginally more likely to make a team and make an impact than UDFAs (and even that is probably signal noise; a product of the opportunity they got by virtue of being a draft pick rather than any true distinction in talent from most UDFAs). Those last couple rounds are almost completely disposable. It's strange to me that anyone bothers calling this a 'miss' - it was barely even a shot. It was one of those throwaway heaves that players make from 3/4 court at the end of a game with a 13 point margin.

Roster is pretty damn well stacked IMO. They like the top 4 guys at corner in McDuffie, Williams, Watson and Johnson but that last spot was up or grabs with other draft picks like Nic Jones. This isn’t 2022 where we needed a bunch of picks to take spots. I think only 2-3 spots were really in play at the beginning of camp, and guys like Steele, Driskell and Roland-Wallace took advantage. Even with Hadden looking like a bust and Nourzad and Hanson needing plenty of work, the draft class and haul overall looks really good, especially compared to last year.

Exactly. Teams with terrible GMs would kill to have half the success of Veach from rounds 4-7 |

Remember that hitting on a third of your picks (hitting being a player that is a starter, spot starter, rotational player, or backup) is an excellent draft. Of course rounds come in to play. Getting a backup in the 1st round is not as good as a starter but in later rounds you are looking at overlooked players or are drafting on pure potential.
