Now that I know we're not drafting any of the Big 3, and probably not Dubois either, I have a hard time getting excited about this entire draft. I'm sure there are some great players amongst the group that we'll look back on, but from a fan perspective, it's just not a draft that makes me drool with what-if scenarios.

I guess it partly has to do with the complete chaos of the 1st round rankings. There aren't many drafts where there are half a dozen guys you could draft at 6 could also realistically be there in the mid-teens. It makes that 6 pick feel a bit less special than it should.
