Perhaps not negative, because their contracts are so low and there is some hope left. But certainly not positive. Not to mention there were examples in recent history of teams paying picks to get rid of busts. Like Phoenix with #4 pick Josh Jackson last season. OKC traded #15 Patton and Mavs cut him to sign WCS. Milwaukee and Indy probably can't use Wilson and Leaf other than salary matching.
