I mean I'm almost looking at like we claimed Willis of their PS. Not really a big deal. SF got an extra pick in 2021 in the process.
Willis was the 73rd overall pick (was a fan during the draft process) if you're gonna take a stab on basically a free player might as well be a dude with his athletic ability. Doesn't work doesn't affect much of anything.
Suggested before that this next draft is going to be an absolute wildfire. From a draft-only perspective, with no one losing any eligibility, basically anyone that's available is declaring. And with that, I envision alot of kids declaring on bad advice.
Point being is If there ever was a year where a 7th rounder could end up being a steal, it'd be next year due to the unknown. A 7th rounder can easily cancel out the following year's 6th given up with everything up in the air like this.
I know we are talking low picks, but teams that trade forward to this year instead of back until the draft just seem confident in their ability to scout talent.
