If Wright's upside is Trevor Wood is that such a terrible thing? Isn't Wood still on the roster for the Steelers? Wright is obviously athletically gifted. The only thing we know for sure right now is that everyone who matters agrees that he has a better shot at TE than DE.
Depends on how you look at it. I would love to get paid ~$100k as an UDFA, make a roster, and get paid to be #3TE for a few years before my career ended.
The NFL pays drafted SDEs even more. Coming out of HS, that was the hope for Wright. Unless he has great hands that nobody knows about, he goes from being a potential star to a role-player.
