The draft is done. Mendoza, Leffew and Brennan all go undrafted.

Undrafted for mendoza, what are the odds he comes back now?

If he signs as a FA he’s making a huge mistake

Now that the draft didn’t happen for him, I wonder if a “real story” will come out. Because to me it never felt like this was about the particular draft position but that there was (is) something else. Now that the draft didn’t provide that clean next step, i guess we’ll see just how much he doesn’t want to be on the 40 next year. Signing undrafted would be quite a statement, but he’s past the portal deadline, so that’s his only alternative.

 He may just hate college and wants to play pro ball.
