Five bucks says the 278 comes from a handwritten 218 that looked like 278 (or a 248 where the 4 looked like a european 7 with the line through it). Kid doesn't look like 278lbs at 6'9"...
If the scouts think he is the best prospect to take then yes, but I am not convinced that he is, or that tyhey think that way.... I think KP needs to make some big deals this draft if he wants to have any chance to save his job.....and I think he will...
I'll bet anybody fifty bucks KP gets the axe within a month of the draft no matter who he picks or what kind of deals he pulls off.
