The popular argument for how players get knocked by scouts, real and wannabes, is the players' surrounding competition. I didn't see a lot of "but look who Soandso played against!" this year. Most of the evaluations I've come across for the last few months have mostly talked about players from a statistical standpoint as well as their individual physical abilities; not too much written about the mental part of the game (decision making and whatnot).
The first two days were to be expected. Optimism wanted us to write about a player with great potential going as high as the third round, but it was safe to assume that there wouldn't be much action until the fourth round began.
