his dad was a good player too...

Once it got to about pick 12 I had a slight hope he’d somehow slide to me at 18.

I legitimately considered him at 5 and went into the draft thinking I’d pick him unless someone fell.

The landing spot is important with Holland but I would not be stunned if he ended up being one of the best players in this draft

I considered him at 3 early in the process so to get him here at 14 is litty.

Definitely was considering Holland too. Love his motor, defense and athleticism and he was carrying that load for his team, even if it didn’t turn out the best. So young too.
