Any ideas why Wingo hasn’t been drafted?

Would’ve thought he’d be picked before Smith

I can't be certain but my sources are telling me it's because a team hasn't chosen him yet.

The draft is all about potential

Mason’s potential is much higher than Wingo’s despite the huge disparity in college production

Why? He’s at the top end of his potential and doesn’t measure extremely well.

NFL scouts drool over physical stature and big name schools. Maason Smith has been talked about as an early round pick since he was in high school thanks to the recruiting services.

Wingo was far more impactful as a player but will get knocked down because there was no hype for him. He's no different than someone like Sheldon Rankins but because there's no hype the scouts don't care.

Size.

I’m sure he’ll be drafted soon.

Publicly dissing your position coach has consequences

Just doesn’t have the measurables but I think he makes a roster and is an eventual starter and difference maker. He will get there and get that second contract.

Because he should have stayed another year and been a superstar.

So, who goes today? I think Wingo and Jefferson go in the 4th, Speights may go 4th or 5th, Turner maybe 6th rd.

My guess is his injury and size, but I would draft him over Maason for sure!
