They likely do make a decent pick but this group of "hockey minds" have shown absolutely nothing at all to earn the benefit of the doubt and shown everything to make people worry about their ability to judge talent and make smart decisions.
I think if they go off the board, it will be in the later picks. I don't think it's likely that they make a surprise pick at 6. They may, however, trade that pick for something in the 10-12 range to acquire some additional picks - that scenario scares me more.
