It should only be good news in the end. It sounds like this guy is on track enough that we can say we'll at least get something. I'd be happy w/1 7th round pick, but if we get a 3rd it would be major. I know it's a high 4th in essence, but that's great in a year when we don't have a 4th.

Plus, players in those rounds are high value and usually about 50/50 in terms of making the team. I think having that pick would greatly impact the strategy the front office might take, as it gives them flexibility. e.g, I could see them picking 2 o linemen w/the 3rd round picks & opting not to take a highly rated o linemen in the 1st or 2nd.

Or, if a decent qb is availabe w/that last 3rd round pick, e.g. Ainge or Booty, I could see them nabbing him.
