This is from Rivals draft tracker:

The buzz: A 5-star athlete has signed a Letter of Intent to play with Georgia. The No. 24 player in the RivalsHigh 100 actually put up better numbers than the No. 1 pick Tim Beckham.

This is some high praise.

I don't like this pick at all...Too many better prospects there for them to take a project right here, especially one who sounds like another Lorenzo Scott/Darnell McDonald guy.

Darnell McDonald is the first guy I thought of as well. I think we could have done better.

If we're going to take a pitcher in the first round fine, but given the lack of positional talent in our system, I think we would have been much better served by drafting less of a project with our very next pick.

Is there any reason why this guy had to be drafted in the 4th pick in the 2nd round? I'm sure we could have waited on him...

Phew... he was the #58 overall prospect according to BA.

Whether you like it or not is debatable, but it's not like Jordan just pulled a name out of a hat.
