There is a disconnect between player demands and the scouting report. What would make me give a 20/20 suspect with no potential in any skill $1.6M? This is what my 16th round draft pick wanted recently. I don't expect guarantees but big ticket draft choices must have recognizable potential that justifies the asking price. Otherwise the process is useless.
Agreed to some extent.

IRL there are always guys in the 200-500 top draft prospects range who want way more than they're worth to sign and end up being undrafted and going to college, often to be drafted after their college careers. So it's not entirely unrealistic for a 20/20 guy to ask for a prohibitively big bonus. Still there is a great deal about the draft's financial model that needs work.
