Nobody was taking Gilliam in the top 5 with B potential. He may be better now but he wasn't the correct pick at the time. And you wonder why you're tanking I don't wounder why I'm tanking. I did that be design. |

Hobson was not the correct pick IMO Gilliam was and is better than him Nobody was taking Gilliam in the top 5 with B potential. He may be better now but he wasn't the correct pick at the time. Huh? I said repeatedly that he was my #2 and I would have taken him 2nd or 3rd overall. |

I mean, Gilliam [HASH]2 would have been a mistake in hindsight as well, but that was my opinion at the time.

If I end up with him and he busts, I just need to draft 3 more busts in a row to match your roster situation. Are you capable of not repeating the same dozen or so talking points daily? We have gone over this like 5 million times. Doc, Hopson, Kobe all correct picks. The first two didn't pan out because reasons. Kobe you fucking co-signed now are calling a bust. Young is the only pick I made that was against the grain and I did it because I was looking for a boom prospect and didn't like what was on the board. Its not like the guys who were projected at my pick did anything worth a shit.. Just ask Vedder. Kobe was not the right pick. He had the grades of the 6th or 7th pick in that draft. I mean, one grade above C+ in probably the deepest draft we've had. You drafted a name. |

It is crazy how consistently potential is valued in this league. Everyone went for A potential in those top 6 picks even though I liked a few other prospects better.

Everyone went for A potential in those top 6 picks even though I liked a few other prospects better. with the ability to scout true potential, it has changed the game. I took my the guy I did because his internals looked solid based on scouting and the true pot was 95. the other big I considered had worse internals in my opinion |

This has always happened, even prior to true potential scouts.

I am waking to my gate at Ohare and will be on a plane until 10 est and then driving home. Unlikely I make my picks before midnight. Hopefully Harry takes a while so I am not holding it up. Hopefully you all also appreciate that I had a bunch of if/then instructions for Odin to make 1.11 quickly. Unfortunately I have a bunch of interest in these picks, and also have a few players I really like. Hopefully you guys won't be too annoyed that I will be out of pocket a couple of hours.
