I'll go with at worse average asset management from Conroy at this point.
Worst case a 5th round pick turns into 9 games played for your team, which is a pretty average result. I randomly looked at the 2001 draft for example as one of the more recent drafts where there would certainly be no active 5th round picks left. there were 34 players picked, averaging 83 games, but only 10 of them played more than 1 game. So better result than average quantitatively, worse than average qualitatively. Kind of a push in a round where you are rolling the dice.
Best case, Mark Giordano. Come on down.
Reality remains to be seen, but a sensible risk none the less.
