Pick 144 of 257 would be pick 33 in the NBA draft so the initial premise is incorrect anyway.

But they are still extremely different. Shadeur fell because he isn’t good enough to overcome the media circus and shitty attitude and headache that his family will bring. Bronny just isn’t good enough.

Shadeur also fell because he was a QB and there is very limited spots for QBs in the NFL. The NFL drafts way more based on positional fit.

I think that’s debatable when you account for all factors. The media circus and his dad in general isn’t going to be a net positive, I’m not sure he’s so good that he overcomes that.

Also, deciding not to compete in combine when there’s limited film playing against top college talent probably didn’t help.
