If you were to compare Hudson and Humphrey's testing numbers, Humphrey arm length is very close to Hudson, but all other measurables exceeds Hudson.

I truly think this one is an excellent pick.
Sometimes I think the "measureables" can be overrated. Can the kid play or can't he? Can he play at a high level consistently or can't he?
