They will flat out ask the inquiring GM who they are taking.
In this instance, BT would have asked Gorton who he would draft at 19 if they agree to the deal....Gorton answers Schneider and BT has a group of guys that he likes and knows at least 1 will be there at 22 so he says yes.
Then again with McClelland.
Pretty normal stuff actually as there arent a whole lot of secrets as to who is available/ranked in any singular spot. It just comes down to what team likes what player a little bit more than the other.
