It's my pleasure to be on.
I mean, unfortunately, the way I'm cropped, I'm rocking my bear shirt, just so you know.
Parents born and raised in Chicago, diehard Bears fan, so all too happy to be on with you.
Well, OK, 100 percent.
I'm not there.
But I do.
I do think there's still the possibility that Washington could be fooling all of us.
It was four years ago when up until all of what, two, three hours before the draft, even less than that.
Everyone thought Jabari Smith Jr.
was going to Orlando.
And what happened?
Paulo Bancaro went one.
Jabari Smith Jr.
fell to three to Houston.
Chet Holmgren went two to Oklahoma City.
It's not unthinkable.
Washington's done its diligence on this significantly, and they could certainly opt to do that.
But the feeling around the league, I talked to nearly a dozen GMs and scouts over the past five days or so.
I asked all of them, what do you think is going to happen at one?
And I got nine returns on AJ and two on Darren Peterson.
