Exactly this
At the same time.. this probably means we have absolutely zero chance at him unless we completely lost out.
Yeah we absolutely have to lose out and still trade up to even have a chance. But that chance is slim to none of happening. Who knows, a lot can happen between now and the draft and I will root for it to happen until it doesn't
I'm telling ya some teams at the top are gonna over think it. He doesn't have elite size, he didn't play against elite competition, his arm is great but I wouldn't call it Josh Allen/Mahomes elite arm strength, he's a good not elite athlete etc.
There's some top end players that opted out at other positions as well that people (not GMs) simply have forgotten about.
Lance IMO is gonna really impress at the combine and throughout the draft process in general...I'm not saying Wilson will be there when we pick BUT I don't see him going top 4 or 5...Toss in someone GMs might like Jones/Trask and they can be had a little later in the draft as well.
We will see, there's a lot of stuff TBD.
