Per Cardinal.com Gonzalez is one of 27 picks already signed.

I dont think Kelly will take that much – that’s top 20 money. If he insists on that, I’d punt the pick to next year.

That is my favorite thing about the new CBA…this makes life easier on colleges and will get some of these later round picks in to short season earlier. Should really help the high schoolers to get them in some game action so you can really scout and take notes on them then hit EST next year running.

And quite possibly not Kelly either. We need to free up ~$2m IMO to get Kelly. That’s got to primarily come from lowballing Ramsey and Wisdom. And maybe Cooney too, a little bit. After that, the slot values are so low there’s little extra $ to be made with low offers.

If we pay much more than 500k for Ramsey we can’t afford Williams or Foody.

Let’s hope we don’t pay more than 750k for him. College Seniors don’t have much leverage at all.

Everyone is talking about Ramsey getting signed below slot but no one is talking about him signing for only $500K

He could be a 1st rounder but still only get 500k because he would have no leverage at all.

Not sure. he had a bad year, he could go back and end up a first rounder with a good year.

Wisdom almost assuredly will be. He was something like 161 or something like that according to BA.
