Frankly, in light of the 2022 season, this article (from a golf writer in a golf magazine? WTH?) seems fairly ridiculous.  It aged about as well as rotting meat in the desert sun.

Hmm... as I wrote, I searched something like, "Baalke Walker Pederson Ekwonu Khan Hutchinson" and that article appeared first. I could have posted more links. But you can do your own "research." The internal disagreement was reported on by Sports Illustrated and other sources. Maybe it was all B.S. or maybe it wasn't. Doesn't matter. Walker looks like the wrong pick regardless. I tend to think all three of them wanted someone different, like the articles suggest; however, they probably had a meeting of the minds, as Khan mentioned, and decided collectively to go with Walker. Pederson obviously didn't have as much pull then as a newbie in the organization. I'm sure he probably holds more sway now coming off a playoff season. Perhaps Khan should be the tiebreaker on first round picks since he cuts the checks.
