On the Athletic podcast a few days ago, Pronman and Wheeler made the comment that to say the 2026 draft is so much deeper isnt necessarily accurate.
They said for one, it's so far out. Last yr at this time Hagens was #1, he fell to 7.
The other part they said is the US program isn't strong again next year and they maybe mentioned one other country that wasn't great as well.
