Keim confessed to throwing a mini-tirade during the draft when a player the Cards had promised to take was selected in front of them. Did we ever deduce that Abdullah was that guy? If so, I'm getting depressed.
Birdman said if Abdullah was there, he was the guy the Cards were going to take and trade to Minny in an AP deal.

That's essentially what they would have been doing. Once Abdullah was gone, all trades were off. I believe there may have been another target Minny wanted too(can't remember who) but he was gone as well.Draft Abdullah and trade him to Minny for AP? Why wouldn't they just ahve traded the pick to Minny for AP if Abdullah was there?
Where did you hear this?
