It was always gonna be Boston.
Hopefully it works out better than when they signed our last free agent draft pick.
Of course, Clifton worked out great for them. So anywhere between Clifton and Miller on the success scale would probably suit them fine. Haha.

There are some really great benefits to drafting 3-4x the volume of standard picks at the draft. You get more shots at the target, and increase your likelihood and volume of hits.
You will also have a higher volume of misses. Which is tough from only a perception standpoint and not really a downside.
The more painful downside is that you will inevitably lose some prospects you’d otherwise have liked to keep. And what’s worse, some of them will hit elsewhere.
We all need to brace for the reality of some good ones getting away. And remember the reasons for it.
