So the reason for that is because Bo Nix doesn't have like the overwhelming physical characteristics that you normally see that high in the draft.

Trevor or Joe Burrow, Patrick Mahomes, Josh Allen, Lamar Jackson, Justin Herbert, C.J. Stroud, Drake May. Maybe you put Trevor Lawrence in there like I'm gonna have to be like potentially three of those teams in succession. Is this guy going to be good enough to get me there? And without the physical characteristics, it's harder to envision that. So you need to have fit work for you.

The fact that he kept getting pushed into this top five, top 10 category, to me, did the kid a disservice. Because I think in some people's minds, it almost became a lock that he was going to be a first round pick. And so I think he started handling his pre-draft process like he was a locked top 10 pick. And it's like, well, I don't want to go there. I don't want to go there.

Well, that's because he's Abdul Carter, right? Like, so he doesn't need to visit the team that has the seventh pick or the eighth pick or the ninth pick. He's that good a prospect.

Even though he wasn't that type of prospect, he was like the other 230 some odd players in the draft that have to go in with an open mind and have to impress every team because a lot of different scenarios are on the table. And so like, I think that made it even harder to find his fit. Right. Because he's just predetermined in some cases. Well, I don't think that's the right place.
