Yep that's a possibility for sure although I suppose that depends if there's a player at 17 that the team really likes to which they should make the pick. I always wonder how amateur scouts feel when they work all year to scout players only to see picks traded and a lot of their work for that season for not seeing the team will only be able to pick one of the top 100 prospects. They fully understand the nature of the business of course and I suppose it puts more emphasis on them finding the hidden gems in later rounds.
