[QUOTE="HardRightEdge, post: 574146"] First, I was commenting on the quotes you posted. Second, I already commented on why a draft-eligible player would not go beyond stating preferences publicly. Given the context, stating any preference at all is fairly bold. Packing on 20 lbs. is bolder still. Third, I don't know if there are any quotes available where Perry stated that he liked his role post-draft. The point was, if anyone were to drag one out, it wouldn't alter my view. Only knuckleheads complain publicly about the job they're asked to do; only a knucklehead superstar might manage to get away with it; the rank-and-file non-knuckleheads stick with happy-talk whether they're happy or not. The point being, I think it imprudent to spend a first round pick on a guy who would rather be somewhere else. There are enough things that can go wrong, projections that don't quite materialize, without adding a preference variable. I've now exhausted my thoughts on the matter. [/QUOTE]
