Grier Sets High Bar for Sharks' No. 2 Overall Pick

San Jose's Mike Grier is making it clear that parting with the second overall pick won't come cheap, and he's not interested in settling for anything less than a premium return. The Sharks GM is holding firm on his valuation, signaling that the organization believes it can build around this pick or extract maximum value if they decide to move it. This is classic deadline negotiating - Grier is setting expectations before the real bidding begins.
