As for the 2020 draft, I thought Voulgaris's choices sucked AT THE TIME of the draft (anyone can see my posts from draft night) because I disagreed with the evals on Green and Tyrell (but LOVED TBey). However, I have come to think Green was a GOOD pick after watching him in his limited minutes this year and think Tyrell (beyond his personal issues) has quite a bit of promise as well. I want to see all three of those guys this coming season before beginning to lay judgment on Voulgaris and his choices. Anyone with a brain knows he chose three of the rawest guys in the draft that would need time to live into their high potential.
I think that actually was McMahon or Cato or Amick on that flurry of pods they didm because I heard that also, and it was not a fan rumor. It was an insider in a big time pod.
***EDIT: Simmons....okay, but I dont listen to him and I heard it. Maybe it was regurgitated from him by a pod host or something, but I would have said McMahon if I had to choose.
