Players rise and fall in the viewpoints of fans and media types. I suspect anything beyond personal interaction with the players goes relatively ignored by the teams themselves. Those one on one interviews, however, work the other way around. Only the teams gain the knowledge from them while the media and thus the fans really get nothing from it. I suppose some media interviews may expose the players some, but most are probably so well coached by their agents that the media stuff is mostly fluff.

Except for that player today that said he doesn't believe in outer space and that the flat-earthers may be onto something. LOL!!!

He may have found another way to drop a players draft stock.
