What were they thinking 2004 Draft Moves (players that payed dearly in the draft)

1) tell all the MLb scouts I am front line football recruit, not a single recruiting or scouting service had him ranked in the top 100 football recruits, Hire a hard line advisor and tell I must get 3 million or I am going to college.
drafted 13 RD

2) after being projested 2nd or 1st rounder and telling scouts just draft me and I will sign. On draft day, all of the sudden ask big bucks after learning he won a gatorade HS award
drafted 14 RD

If he hired an agent as you state he cannot go on to college--he is ineligible if he has hired an agent
