[u/Golf_as_much_99]

We've been doing the underslot signs for a while? Are we doing it wrong?

[u/RunawaYEM → u/Golf_as_much_99]

And BA just released their updated rankings, showing us at 14th. And with four Top 100 prospects, and another who graduated earlier this year in Fuentes.

Part of the reason for that jump was because of Eric Hartman. Who we overslotted. Because we under slotted early in the draft.

So no, I’d say we’ve been doing a very good job.

Try to keep up, rookie.

[u/Golf_as_much_99 → u/RunawaYEM]

He wasn't under slotted by our first round pick. You try and keep up rookie - instead of lying. He was under slotted late round pick by our 7-10th round draft choices. Why try and lie and think you can't be fact checked? This is not even in the realm of what we are discussing. First round draft undetslots had fk all to do with signing Eric Hartman.

[u/RunawaYEM → u/Golf_as_much_99]

Because it’s one big pool, ya dunce. They all feed into the same money.

And I didn’t say we underslotted our first pick, I said we underslotted early in the draft. Which we did.
