I mean, I would probably say the mental side because you're probably not drafting them if they physically can't do what you want them to do anyway. So I think in just, although the landscape of college has changed in terms of the length of these seasons now with, I mean, some of these guys are playing 14, 14 games, 15 games.

Again, it depends on the situation. You know, I would try to spend a little bit of time with each guy as they're onboarding and getting a chance to know him throughout the course of the offseason.
