Collier went to JuCo to accelerate this process.  He isn’t going to college.

Collier almost has to be going back to school unless a team is willing to trash their entire draft for him

I'm happy to pay overslot for him if he's still on the board.

[Brooks The Great]

If we could somehow go way over slot and get Collier at 33, I would lose my mind in the best possible way.

As another poster mentioned, maybe he's told teams that he's going back to school, but I would still put him to the test and offer as much of a bonus as possible.

Reds might be the spot for Collier.

Ding ding, we have a winner.

Yup, they took him.

Who's left that highly rated that we should be waiting to drop?

Peyton Graham. Kind of worried that Elias and company are still enamored with Jud Fabian. I don't want him at 33.

The brother of Orioles legend Andrew Susac goes 19th to Oakland.

By MLB ranking the 11, 15, 16, 19 and 20th top players are still on the board.  But all the top 10 are gone.

Don’t they know I have to work tomorrow. Move it along folks.

No idea the certainty of this, but this is from the FanGraphs live draft chat right now:

Actually was told today his makeup is terrible and I have him too high. Love the tools, hope he matures if it's true

Well his hat is like 2 sizes too big so that’s a huge red flag.

Interesting pick there at #20.  He was only rated #48 on the mlb board, so this may have been a stretch and he may have been there for the Braves at #35.
